How hard is it to score a 9.8+ CGPA in BITS Pilani?

DR
Deepshikha Roy Posted On : August 5th, 2023
studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

It is not that difficult to maintain a 9.8+ CGPA over the course of a semester, but it is pretty hard in the first semester; you actually need to score 10 points to reach the goal. In the following semesters, you can be among the top 10 with good interaction with teachers during the lectures and a good performance in the class tests. Do not mug up the concepts and theory; rather, try to have a deeper understanding of every topic. And last, but not least, it is important to stay away from distractions and reduce your leisure time.

What are the things which differentiate NIT Surathkal from other NITs?

AC
Arindam Chakraborty Posted On : September 15th, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal

Being at an NIT is itself a great deal. The tag of ‘Nitian’ holds lots of value and prestige. I am listing down certain unique elements of my college-

  1. ISRO has set up a Regional Academic Center for Space over here to carry out joint research and development activities in space tech. 
  2. NIT Surathkal has its own private beach. The beach is just 10 minutes away from hostels, and the sunset here is absolutely breathtaking.
  3. There are many core industries located near the campus. You can work as an unpaid intern in them, in case you fail to land a paid internship. This comes as a great relief for students from Civil, Electrical, Metallurgy and Chemical.
  4. The campus contains numerous shops and canteens. An app named “ChangePay” is available exclusively for the campus students to order items, which will then be delivered to your hostel. 
  5. Each year on Republic Day, one of the clubs of NITK (DDFC) organizes a one day fest called BHARAT DARSHAN. It is a competition between students from different states where you can represent your culture through dance, drama, etc. in order to win the title.
  6. There is a virtual lab on campus. There’s also a Centre for System Design (CSD). 
  7. Here are some places you can visit from NITK- Kayaking, Coorg, Goa, Manipal, Malpe beach, Kudremukh, Chikmagalur, Mysore, Bangalore, Ooty, Jog falls, etc. . You can easily rent a two/four wheeler to visit these spots.
  8. NITK hosts its technical fest-ENGINEER, and its cultural fest-INCIDENT during the odd and even semesters respectively. 

These are some of the unique elements of NIT Surathkal which make this college truly special.

NIT Jalandhar is a training ground for future engineers. While the caliber of research may not be that high, the planning and administration of numerous events, such as the campus's cultural and technical festival and a number of student competitions that draw participants from all over northern India, are excellent.

  • Green Campus: The vast majority of students are very interested in exploring the campus each day. The campus is well-equipped and includes a green belt.

The learning environment at NITJ gives students a supportive environment in which to grow both personally and technically, as well as ordinarily in every aspect.

B.Sc (Hons.) Agriculture from Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India (2020)

TNAU is a top-rated agricultural university and it is the oldest institute established.

How good is the PGPEx program at IIM Shillong?

HS
Harleen Sethi Posted On : January 27th, 2023
IIM Shillong

There is often a misunderstanding about placements at IIMs after course completion. It is important to understand that placements are entirely student-driven and depend on the individual's efforts and abilities. Many PGPEX programs at IIMs have a significant number of students from IT services, and these students may not be as diversified or knowledgeable about other industry segments. This can create a gap between the companies and the students and may result in a lower placement rate for some students. 

Unfortunately, many students who enroll in PGPEX programs do so based on their academic profiles or high scores on entrance exams, rather than their knowledge or experience in other industries. As a result, students who come from non-IT backgrounds may be more successful in securing placements due to their diverse understanding of general management. This is a common issue at all IIMs, and even IIM-L and IIM-I are taking steps to reduce these risks.

How is life in IIIT Kota?

HS
Hema Singh Posted On : April 16th, 2021
Studies Aerospace engineering, IIT KGP

IIIT Kota is a recent campus. The institute offers B.Tech only in two specializations: Computer Science Engineering (CSE) and Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE). 

The below-mentioned points give a wholesome picture of life in IIIT Kota.

Education:

  • The institute is similar to any other average institute. A few core teachers are decent who have been teaching for years. But most of them are young and inexperienced.
  • Only 10% of the taught topics are applicable in real jobs and the rest 90% are outdated.
  • The positive side of the curriculum is that the students are liberal to change their elective subjects by intimating the course coordinator.

Facilities:

  • The fee for B.Tech is 9.24 Lakhs. The fee is in competition with any other private institute. It is beyond any government institute.
  • Even the facilities are not parallel to the fee charged by the institute.
  • The classrooms and labs are considerate.
  • There is a lack of sports opportunities.
  • The hostel facility especially for boys is pathetic. The internet is slow, mobile networks are poor, mess food is tasteless, and bathrooms are untidy. Some students prefer shifting to flats because of the same.
  • There is no ragging and the seniors are helpful and approachable.

Placement & Internship:

  • If you are aiming for the top companies in the market then the institute is not a perfect fit for you. The institute struggles to call companies to campus. So, there is no stability in terms of placement here.
  • Even for the internships, only a few decent companies visit the campus. The highest stipend was offered at INR 1 Lakh.
  • The placement figures are:

Minimum Package

INR 3.5 LPA

Highest Package

INR 30 LPA

Branch with Maximum Placed Students

CSE

Considering the above information, one has to decide for oneself if the college is perfect for him or not.
