What is it that only IIM Calcutta has, but no other IIMs do?

HP
Harshit Patel Posted On : December 12th, 2022
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (Graduated 2019)

IIM Calcutta provides you with a second chance in life. Nowadays, most IIMs place a high value on your previous academic achievements.

If you go to Ahmedabad, you will find people with exceptional academics, brilliant 10th, 12th, and undergraduate marks, and toppers in every phase of their lives who have never failed.

Except for the high CAT Percentile, everything is the same in Bangalore.

However, at IIM Calcutta, the majority of them failed in life. After achieving a high CAT percentile, IIM Calcutta is the only top college that provided them with the opportunity to prove themselves once more in life. Failures and struggles have occurred in the students' lives. They understand how to work with limited resources. The best thing IIM Calcutta has done for them is given them HOPE. It is the only place that believes in you and provides you with the necessary opportunities. People, not profiles, can be found there.

You'll meet people who have faced disappointments in their lives, learned from them, and risen above them. People who are compassionate and steady. Individuals who understand how to function with fewer resources.

Why doesn't Apple Inc. recruit engineers from India (even from IITs, BITS Pilani, NITs and IIIT-H)?

DD
Devendra Dharani Posted On : June 27th, 2023
M.tech at IIT Hyderabad

Apple Inc. does recruit engineers from India, including from top institutions such as IITs, BITS, NITs, and IIITs. They have a dedicated team in India to find and recruit top talent from around the country. However, like any other company, they have certain criteria and standards that they look for in candidates, and they also have a limited number of open positions at any given time.

Therefore, even if an individual is highly qualified and comes from a prestigious institution, they may not be selected for a role at Apple. 

Apple initially hired students from IIIT Hyderabad because its head office is situated in Hyderabad. After this, Apple started approaching old IITs and even top NITs such as Trichy, Surathkal, and Warangal. You will be surprised to know that now Apple even visits BITS Pilani, Goa, and Hyderabad Campuses.

So you can rest assured as Apple is now recruiting actively from top technical institutes of the country.

Are there donation seats in BITS Pilani?

HV
Harish Verma Posted On : June 27th, 2023
Studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani - Pilani Campus

No, there are no donation seats in BITS Pilani and all the students are admitted solely on the basis of merit. In fact, my friend told me about an incident here that further proved that BITS Pilani has no donation seats. A very rich person wanted his son to get admitted here and was willing to give a hefty donation for the same. The director of BITS Pilani strongly refused saying they accept students on a merit basis only and no amount of money will get him a seat no matter what. 

This brought to light the transparency of admissions here and strengthened my faith in BITS Pilani.

How is life at JIPMER?

AM
Anushua Mukharjee Posted On : September 21st, 2023
MBBS from Maharashtra University of Health Sciences

Life at JIPMER is extremely hectic yet very productive. A typical day begins at 8 in the morning for the MBBS students. The sleep-deprived students run for the first class often reaching late. 

MBBS students have clinics from 10 while first-year students have dissection hall classes. Clinics are very intriguing wherein students are dressed up as doctors carrying stethoscopes. Lunch starts at 1 pm and lasts an hour.

The clinic classes are followed by afternoon classes from 2-4:30. The end of the classes at 4:30 marks the end of the day as well and students are free to do whatever they want. Students usually hang out with their friends after their hectic schedules. During tests, students can be seen in the library or pacing up and down the hostel corridor. Yet, we have our times of joy too. Every few months there are games tournaments. The campus life is fun and the annual fest, Spandan, is hosted in the first week of September each year. 

Overall it's a continuous cycle of study, eat, and sleep with occasional fun moments with your friends!

What are the average campus placement salary figures for DU LLB graduates?

SA
Sansthiti Adwika Posted On : October 6th, 2022
Student at University of Delhi

There isn't a significant campus placement at Delhi University. Therefore, a specific average placement salary figure is not known. Although the Placement Assistance Council assists with placements, the college can only place a small number of the over 2100 students in a batch. 

However, according to statistics, the largest annual package offered can be about 20 lakhs, with the average package being around 4-5 lakhs. As the five-year law program has become the favorite choice among these recruiters, the number of recruiters is decreasing every year. But even without placement, students do seek employment.

The second stage of the CSAS procedure for DU admission 2022 will require CUET scores after the CUET results have been released. Selecting the programmes for which they want to apply for admission is a requirement for students. They will need to verify the CUET UG merit results for every programme they have chosen. The third phase will then release a merit list on which seats will be distributed.

15% of the weight for the marks will be set by the institutions, and 85% of the weight for the CUET 2022 results will be given to applicants for admission to Delhi University minority colleges. Delhi University colleges will be electronically centrally counseled in three rounds following the CUET entrance exam.

Why does BITS Pilani have such a low average CGPA?

SD
Shruti Dasgupta Posted On : June 27th, 2023
Student at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

Your grades don't necessarily determine your skills and capabilities. I have seen many low graders who are successful today thanks to the excellent exposure and opportunities they got at BITS Pilani. In fact, one of my friends even claims that BITS Pilani alumni have something charming about them that is missing in IITians. I attribute this to the splendid campus life of this institute. 

Life here is so dynamic and indulging that without even realizing your personality is groomed and you become a different person when you graduate. A close friend of mine had a very low CGPA and had almost given up on MS or Ph.D. After working for a couple of years he finally apple for one and got selected in the US. He realized his BITS tag and the knowledge he gained there gave him an edge over other batchmates. 

So yes grades do matter but only to a certain extent. Ultimately it is your hard work and consistency that makes you successful and stands apart from the crowd.
