Which college should I join among IISER Pune, IIT Madras Physics, IIT Kanpur Physics or IIT Engineering Physics?

SK
Simran Kaushik Posted On : January 25th, 2022
BS+MS Physics, Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (2021)

If you are truly passionate about Physics, be it theoretical or practical, you should choose either IISER Pune or IISER Kolkata. IISER Kolkata is the best option for Physics, while IISER Pune is well-known for its overall academics and infrastructure. Here are the reasons why you should prefer IISER over IIT.

  • Most students joining IIT, aim to get corporate jobs. If you are interested in the subject and want to do actual research on it, IISER is the best place. You will get to meet like-minded people too. 
  • You can check the faculty and the curriculum for Physics at IIT. Even IIT Kanpur which is known for its Physics department puts more emphasis on applied Physics. Most IITs leave out theory-oriented courses like ‘Cosmology’. Also, you won’t get the lab infrastructure similar to IISER at IITs. The labs at IISERs are specifically designed for research works. From the 5th semester onwards, the course curriculum at IITs become quite different. It becomes more technology-oriented. While students at IISERs are required to do a one-year-long research project.  

Based on the performance over the last few years, IISER Pune will be better than IISER Kolkata.

Got admits from IIMA PGPX, IIM Bangalore EPGP, and IIM Calcutta PGPEX. Which one should I go for (I'm really confused about the placements, no clarity whatsoever)?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : May 15th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

My friend is a PGPEX alumnus and claims that the program helped him double the salary he receives from his regular MBA. The ‘X’ in the program often is a source of hesitation for many prospective students ao it’s better the programs get the hype they deserve. 

As far as choosing between IIM Ahmedabad and IIM Bangalore is concerned, I would recommend you go for the latter. IIM Bangalore has a better placement scenario and also has common classes across the institute in elective terms giving you a wider peer network. IIM Ahmedabad on the other hand has a bit of a location disadvantage and the exposure offered is nothing compared to Bangalore. 

Here is a comparative analysis of the placement scenario of the 3 programs namely. IIM Ahmedabad PGPX. IIM Bangalore EPGP and IIM Calcutta MBAx

How is life in LHMC?

YG
Yashnavi Garg Posted On : October 5th, 2023
MBBS from Lady Hardinge Medical College

LHMC is an amazing place to spend the best days of your life. She met some exceptionally talented students and made awesome friends in a short period of time. She absolutely loved how the seniors were so cooperative and introduced them to societies bringing all like-minded people together. The teachers at LHMC are not addressed as Sir or Maam, rather they are called Di. 

The city life here is even better and you can always sneak out to have delicious food at Connaught Place or go for a late-night walk around CP. There are concerts around the year and many festivals and club events make the overall campus life dynamic.

So, life at LHMC is very vibrant and exciting!

What are the passing marks out of 70 for MAKAUT?

SB
Sushmita Banerjee Posted On : June 22nd, 2023
B.Tech from Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University Of Technology

There are no fixed passing marks out of 77 although you have to score above 40 marks overall. Scoring less than 40 will get you an F Grade which is not acceptable. The passing marks also depend on the minimum marks your professor will be giving in internals. 

Usually, professors always give at least 10-12 marks in internals so to stay on the safe side, try to score at least 30 marks in the theory paper out of 70. If you follow this technique, you won't have a single backlog in 4 years and get a BTech degree with 8+CDGPA.

What was your experience and feeling when you first time standing in front of AIIMS Delhi?

AG
Aditya Ghose Posted On : May 31st, 2023
All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi

My friend visited AIIMS Delhi for the first time in her life for an open counseling session of MBBS. When she finally stood before the no. 1 medical college in India, rightly called the Harvard of the East, she felt goosebumps and could not believe her eyes. A strange feeling took over her as she looked at the massive campus and fast-paced life there.

It clearly was the epitome of the best healthcare services, the patient inflow a solid proof of the same. She understood why exactly this institute is the dream college of many. However, she knew her rank would not allow her to get admission here so she ended up at AIIMS Hyderabad.

As she took her leave and gave the buildings a last glance, she pledged to come back as a PG student. But life has other plans for her. Recently when I met her, she seemed quite satisfied and said that over the years she came to realize that it is not the institution but your knowledge that makes you a good Doctor.

How good is IIM Kashipur?

PG
Payal Gupta Posted On : January 5th, 2023
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Kashipur (Graduated 2020)

Honestly, IIM Kashipur does not do justice to the other IIMs in its worth. Under the pretext of being an IIM it has gained little fame but the reality is far from different. My cousin got an offer from IIM Kashipur but decided against joining it. The reasons that led him to make this decision are

  • Location: IIM Kashipur experiences some major location disadvantages. Neither is it connected to central India nor does it offer a diversity of locations. 
  • Low ROI: After spending a massive amount of IIM Kashipur ( INR 1730000), everyone wants a high-paying job. But the entry-level offers available at IIM Kozhikode were below average.
  • Weak alumni base: The alumni base at IIM Kashipur is rather weak as compared to other IIMs.
  • Less number of reputed companies come for placements: The biggest brands either don’t come to the campus of IIM Kashipur or offer limited roles only.

So if the placement numbers attract you here, you are more than welcome. But remember IIM Kashipur is not at par with other IIMs.
