Which is a better place to study, IIT Delhi or IIT Bombay?

SB
Sumit Bose Posted On : March 17th, 2023
IIT Bombay (2019)

Without any second thoughts, I consider IIT Bombay a much better option than IIT Delhi. Some reasons that speak in favor of my opinion are

  • IIT Bombay enjoys a higher locational advantage as well as a better-equipped campus.
  • While both IITs have a decent Research culture, IIT Bombay is at a level higher than IIT Delhi in this aspect. It has a larger number of Papers and Patents to its credit.
  • The ambiance at IIT Bombay is rather chill with no strict rules and regulations. You are free to do anything and no restrictions are imposed on dress code or LAN.
  • IIT Bombay has a better climate than IIT Delhi.
  • IIT Bombay enjoys the advantages of being a Financial capital with additional opportunities for the non-core sector.
  • IIT Bombay has a few BS programs like BS Economics, Mathematics, and Chemistry which are not present in IIT Delhi. These programs are a bridge between engineering and applied science and render a wide scope of research and at the same time, applied fields.
  • IIT Delhi has extra BTech programs like BTech Textile, BTech, and BioTech. The students of these programs usually go for non-core jobs and corporate life.
  • IIT Bombay welcomes a number of eminent personalities. Some recently invited personalities include PM Narendra Modi, Brett Lee, Sadhguru, Yami Gautam.
  • IIT Bombay has amazing hostels for freshers.

So both the institutes are elite in their own essence but nowadays IIT Bombay is a clear winner between the two.

DS
Deeraj Shah Posted On : July 14th, 2023
M.Tech from Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (2020)

You will not find an answer to this particular query anywhere. This is because IISc Bangalore and all the IITs release score-based GATE cutoffs for admissions into the M.Tech program. These cut-offs are not rank-based.

However, the most favorable chances for you are if your All India GATE rank is above AIR 50. This is not the case for all M.Tech branches at IISc Bangalore but for most of them.

Here is the branch-wise GATE cutoff for admissions into the M.Tech program at IISc Bangalore (General Category)-

Is the IISER aptitude test as difficult as the JEE Advanced?

AM
Abhinav Mishra Posted On : September 20th, 2022
BS-MS from Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Pune (IISER-P)

No, the IISER aptitude test isn’t as difficult as JEE Advanced. It has a similar difficulty level as JEE Main. The one thing that differentiates IAT from other entrance examinations at this level is that it imposes equal weightage for all four sections, i.e. Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, and Biology. 

Questions asked in the Mathematics sections are conceptual but doable. The difficulty level is less than JEE Advanced but slightly above JEE Main. Physics questions are easier than JEE Main. You just need basic problem-solving skills, to score well. Chemistry questions are comparable to JEE Main level. Biology section is very easy to score.

What is the hostel fee at BHU including mess charge and everything?

PG
Payal Gupta Posted On : February 16th, 2023
Studies at Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (2024)

Firstly, the hostel fees at BHU vary from course to course. So all I can do is give you a rough estimate through the information I got from my sister who pursued B.Sc from BHU.

Hostel Fees

  • 1st semester stood: INR 2666
  • 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th semester: INR 1290 (regular fee and hostel fee both)
  • 3rd, 5th, and 7th: INR 3190 (regular fee and hostel fee)

Mess Charges: 

  • INR 40 for a simple diet
  • INR 60 for special
  • INR 80 for chicken

Usually, there are 2 diets a day and on Sundays, there is only one diet. But the Sunday meal is special so it is counted as a double diet. So the approximate price stands at INR 80-100 per day.

If you skip the meal or go home then you can tell Mess Maharaj and you won’t be charged.

What are the advantages of doing an MBBS from AIIMS over other medical colleges?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : May 30th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Rather than looking for the perks of doing an MBBS from AIIMS, you should be asking what would you be losing if you are unable to make it into AIIMS and if that loss is worth worrying about. In a medical college, most of your UG time goes into exams and studies and you are left with no time to analyze where your interest lies - Medicine or no medicine / USMLE or AIPG 

  • AIIMS offers top-notch education and training to its students, with a strong emphasis on practical, hands-on experience. This can help students develop the necessary skills and knowledge to become successful doctors.
  • AIIMS has state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, which can enhance the learning experience for students. This includes modern laboratories, research facilities, and advanced medical technology.
  • AIIMS has a strong reputation both nationally and internationally, which can be beneficial for students when it comes to securing jobs or pursuing further education.
  • AIIMS has a diverse and inclusive community of students and faculty, which can provide a supportive and enriching environment for learning and personal growth.

AIIMS does not have campus selections and all doctors are paid equally in the beginning whether you belong to an AIIMS or not. The medical field does not value brand names but it's our personal efforts that actually matter.
