Do all of the 7 AIIMS take their students for Shimla trip or is it only for AIIMS Delhi students?
Talking about official out-station trips, none of the AIIMS institutions send their students on official out-station trips.
AIIMS Jodhpur sends its students to various inter-college fests, for example, Chiasma (AIIMS Bhubaneswar), and Silhouettes (AFMC, Pune), among others. The same goes for other AIIMS institutions.
Regarding the annual freshers’ trip to Shimla, the trip is planned by the Student Welfare Union of AIIMS Delhi. Thus, it is not an official trip and is organized by a student body. AIIMS Delhi has been in place for a very long time and so while other institutions do not have such a tradition in place, the student body at AIIMS Delhi follows it.
Is it possible for an average student to crack the AIIMS in Delhi?
AIIMS Delhi is targeted by genius minds from the entire country. It’s their determination to get admission to AIIMS that drives them to ace the exam. So with the right level of dedication and commitment, even average students can crack AIIMS Delhi.
Such students need to work day and night with minimal distractions. A fixed timetable should be made and duly followed if you are adamant about AIIMS Delhi. On average, they need to do 6 to 8 hours of self-study in which they study Chemistry Physics, and Biology and also revise the previous chapters.
Additionally, students who consider themselves average should join online test series so that they can become familiar with online patterns and improve their writing speed as well.
Don’t let anything demotivate you and keep striving for your future.

Which is better for CSE? (IIT Roorkee vs BITS Pilani vs IIT BHU vs IIIT Hyderabad)?
All the aforementioned colleges have well-established CSE departments and are good choices for engineering aspirants. However, personally, I feel IITs are always a safe choice given their low fees and big alumni pool.
IITs attract the best minds from across the country and the opportunities provided are much better than other colleges. BITS Pilani, although a great choice can be a problem for those with financial constraints given its high fees. IIIT Hyderabad has it all from excellent academics to top-notch placements but does not have a very happening college life.
The table below gives the average packages of these institutes for a general analysis.
|
IIT Roorkee |
INR 18.34 LPA |
|
BITS Pilani |
INR 30.37 LPA |
|
IIT BHU |
- |
|
IIIT Hyderabad |
INR 32 LPA |
Apart from placements, what are the major differences between BIT Mesra and BITS Pilani?
As a student at BITS Pilani, I can tell that there are major aspects other than placements that make BITS Pilani better than BITS Mesra. I have listed them below.
- BITS Pilani has a better and more lively student community with a higher ratio of students qualifying exams like IIT-JEE.
- It has student-friendly and better management policies for students compared to BITS Mesra.
- BITS Pilani is known for its strong industry connections that help students in securing internship opportunities in top companies.
- BITS Pilani has a better infrastructure with modern facilities and dedicated study areas.
- BITS Mesra uses different state and national-level exams for admission but BITS Pilani has its own dedicated BITSAT exam for admission.
Which is better for CSE? (IIT Roorkee vs BITS Pilani vs IIT BHU vs IIIT Hyderabad)
Every Institute has its unique aspects as well as its own strengths and weaknesses. Some factors to consider include the quality of the faculty, the resources available to students, the research opportunities, and the campus culture.
IIT Roorkee, BITS Pilani, and IIT BHU CS are definitely excellent but IIIT Hyderabad wins the race when it comes to CS. It’s second only to IISc Bangalore, IIT Bombay, and Madras. Because of only 2 branches, the entire focus of the Institute is on CS only. The opportunities, ambiance, and faculty are aligned with the requirements for a good CS branch. Another good option is IIT BHU because of its high ROI.
Having known a few friends in all 4 institutes, I can confidently say that those who chose IIIT Hyderabad CS over IIT Roorkee are doing better now. The IIT tag certainly is helpful but only to a limited extent. The exposure provided by IIIT Hyderabad and its excellent placement opportunities overshadows the much coveted IIT Tag making it a better choice among all institutes. But those looking for stability, facilities, academia, and vast opportunities can go for IIT Roorkee.
How are grades given in IIT-Madras?
At IIT Madras, the strength of the class determines the grading system. The mean and standard deviation of marks obtained are calculated.
Let X be the marks obtained by the student, in that case:
The top 5% of the students in the class get an S grade. For smaller classes, the professors are at a discretion regarding the grading system. They grade based on bands in most cases. For example, if a band of students scored from 81-92, and the other band scored from 95-99, the first band will get an A and the second band an S.
In case of no bands, it depends upon the concerned instructor who then decides where to draw a line between the two grades.
Which is better, YMCA Faridabad or DCRUST Murthal?
Having known some people studying in both these colleges, I can share some information about them. This might help you make a decision.
Student Crowd:
- During the 90s, YMCA was very popular and a lot of good students used to get admitted here.
- Nowadays DCRUST enjoys a better student crowd, as many students from NCR are also getting admission here.
College Life:
- DCRUST takes the lead here. If you prefer extracurricular activities, it is the right place for you.
- They have activity clubs, literary events, social welfare clubs, and also a drama club called Sparsh.
- These activities will help you groom your personality.
Hostels:
- DCRUST is known to have better hostel facilities than YMCA.
- Also, it is famous for Murthal Dhabas.
Placements:
- YMCA tops this, as they have better placement opportunities than DCRUST.
- A lot of notable companies participate in their placement program.
| Categories | YMCA Faridabad | DCRUST Murthal |
| Placement Percentage | 80% | 70-80% |
| Highest CTC | 28 LPA | 8.21 LPA |
| Average CTC | 12 LPA | 4-5 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | Accenture, Wipro, Cognizant, TCS, etc. | Tech Mahindra, Bosch, Fidelity, Jindal Iron and Steel, etc. |
Both the colleges are more or less good to pursue your studies. Though it is suggested that if placements are your primary concern, go for YMCA. DCRUST will help you more with research-based knowledge.
