Which college should I choose, PSIT Kanpur or IMS Ghaziabad for a B.Tech through CS?
In my opinion, IMS Ghaziabad is a much better option than PSIT Kanpur mainly because of its NCR location. When choosing a college, a factor of utmost importance is where the college is situated because your location will impact your college life largely. Opting for a college situated in NCR is a boon as it will give you a lot of exposure to activities and education in general. You get more exposure to industries and startups and thus getting internships is a lot easier. One more advantage is that you can avail many good coaching facilities in the NCR location which may not be possible in a city like Kanpur.
The campus life is less strict at IMS Ghaziabad than at PSIT and there are no strict attendance rules. The fees and value of a degree are almost similar in both colleges but you can enjoy your life much better at NCR colleges. I am strongly against you joining PSIT Kanpur because
- Not a good location
- Unnecessary struck rules related to attendance
- You have to be stuck 9-5 completing unnecessary assignments which have no real importance
- Not a good college to enjoy life and hang out
- No coding culture in PSIT
Despite it all, PSIT Kanpur has a 100% placement percentage and will help you get places in CS. Weigh your options and choose wisely.
I'm getting a seat at NIT Jalandhar in production engineering. What is the scope of the branch in India? Which master's should I choose: an MBA or an MTech?
Scope of Industrial and Production Engineering is good at NIT Jalandhar. But you will be offered less salary in comparison to Mechanical Engineering.
But if you go for a non-core job, the salaries offered might be above average.
Between M.Tech and MBA, I will recommend you go for MBA. This is because M.Tech placements are very low and very little scope is there.
Choosing MBA will get you the following benefits:
-
Better salary than M.Tech.
-
The curriculum for IPE is easier so you can also prepare for CAT alongside
-
The faculty is extremely supportive
-
The syllabus of IPE and MBA is somewhat similar so it becomes easy for you
People choose M.Tech thinking its a bit similar to IPE. But in reality IPE has a practical and managerial subjects whereas M.Tech has more technical subjects. So don’t get confused and just go for IPE.
Which course is better to choose. BS Agribusiness management in TNAU or Btech Biotech at Bannari Amman institute of technology?
You should choose a BS in Agribusiness Management at TNAU. It offers great career prospects in the field of Agriculture. TNAU placements of recent years have witnessed an average CTC of INR 4.5 LPA. ITC, HDFC, Paper Boat, etc. are among the major recruiters that take part in the placement drive. Return on investment is decent.
Is IBS a good college for an MBA in marketing? Which is the best campus: Hyderabad, Mumbai, or Pune?
Among the campuses of IBS, Hyderabad is considered the best, followed by Mumbai and Pune. It is assumed that the syllabus and course content are similar across the three campuses. Hyderabad is considered to be the best in terms of facilities and resources, while Mumbai is also a strong option, with good professors, case studies, presentations, and a well-equipped campus.
While IBS Hyderabad has a strong placement record, most of the offered positions are in sales. There are also opportunities in advertising, retailing, and other fields, but they are less prevalent. The pay packages offered by the college are decent. After gaining some experience through campus placements, you can explore job opportunities outside the college.
It is important to note that none of the IBS campuses are AICTE approved, but they are affiliated with ICFAI University in Dehradun. As an alternative, you can opt for a distance MBA program by paying an additional fee.

BBA from all of these institutes, Nirma University, Symbiosis, and NMIMS is good. It now depends on whether you are willing to go for an MBA immediately after your graduation or not.
If you want to do an MBA and not want to get into giving entrances again, then go for Nirma, it is a decent pick. If you feel you can study in the 2nd and 3rd year of your graduation for MBA entrance exams. Then go for BBA from NMIMS or Symbiosis.

Which course among PGP at IIM Indore and PGP-ABM at IIM Lucknow should one choose if he/she has an interest in Marketing and Operations?
The simple answer is that the choice of the course depends more or your overall profile than the course itself. Irresponsible of your specialization your chances at placements will be low if your resume is below average. Moreover, institutes like IIM Indore and IIM Lucknow offer joint placements for both programs.
Students can apply to any company irrespective of their specialization. Yet there are many who are able to get into their dream companies while some failed to get a call from a reputed firm. This is because the PGP program just added value to your resume and if that is already poor then even PGP cannot guarantee you a high-paying job.
So if you already have a good resume all you need to do is improve your resume in marketing and operations. This can be done through extra-curricular activities and B-school competitions. For this the PGP-ABM program is perfect.
But if you have a below-average resume, then go for PGP. Because then extracurricular activities alone will not improve your resume. You need class projects and good academic scores to upgrade it. Unlike PGP-ABM, you won’t miss out on basic electives related to marketing/ops/finance.
So nothing is certain about an MBA program. One needs to know what he will be doing after acquiring knowledge to decide which course to take. I will personally suggest you go for IIM Lucknow PGP-ABM if you just want to improve your resume.
Is it better to go for DU BMS instead of IPM of IIM Indore
Since you’ve not given any context to the question, the answer in any normal circumstance would be yes. Let’s understand why spending more than 5 lacs on an IPM degree is not worth your time and effort.
- Fee: BMS DU charges around 50,000 for the entire course where IPM fee is unnecessarily high just because of the IIM tag. I am not saying that there will not be any difference between the curriculum but the difference is not worth the money you’re paying.
- Syllabus: Although IIMs are known for their pedagogy and surely you’ll get professors who will change the way you see a subject. This kind of exposure at such an early stage of your life will widen the possibilities but if we talk about the syllabus of a BBA degree and that of a BMS degree, the difference is pretty evident.
BMS is a slightly analytical degree that would give you an edge over students pursuing BBA or BCOM. I have seen BMS students acing CAT after basic preparation cause of their good grasp on logical reasoning. It’s a given fact that an average BMS students is more likely to score well in CAT than an average BBA/BCOM student.
How different are the career paths of individuals who pursue their MBA in HR from XIMB/SIBM/SCMHRD as compared to those from XLRI/TISS/MDI?
The answer can be divided into two main parts: Curriculum and Placements.
In terms of Curriculum, TISS is rated as having the best. Colleges whose core degree is not HR will be at a disadvantage when it comes to curriculum.
In terms of Placements, XLRI is ranked as having the best package and profile offerings, followed by a tie between TISS and SCMHRD. The colleges whose core is not HR will not offer as good a package post-MBA as compared to the colleges with core HR competencies.
In terms of packages offered, XLRI can be ranked the highest, followed by SCMHRD and TISS in a tie, and then MDI, SIBM, and XIMB.

Out of all these colleges, IMI Delhi seems to be the best option for a person looking to major in finance. IMT Ghaziabad has been known for its marketing for a long time and SCMHRD, as the name suggests, is an amazing institution for HR.
