PK
Prasanna Kumar Posted On : March 14th, 2023
Mba from Goa Institute of Management

If you are shortlisted for the Achiever's round at a management institute like Goa Institute of Management, you will receive an email with further instructions. You will have to book your interview slot from the options provided. You will have the choice of attending a lecture with current students or an option without class.

You will be required to reach the campus by 9 am on the day of the interview. You will be directed to a classroom where the document verification process will take place. A random allotment will be made among eight faculties/admin staff responsible for document verification. While filling out the form, you will be asked to write your three best achievements and provide proof for the same. Make sure to write only verifiable achievements.

You will be split into groups of 10-12 candidates for the Group Discussion. There will be two panelists (both faculties at the institute). This will be a mix of Group Interviews and Group Discussions. You will be given a minute to introduce yourself, and the panelists will then ask you to choose a topic for discussion. You will discuss current issues, and a topic will be given based on the work experience of all candidates. For example, "How do you handle Passive vs Aggressive bosses".

After the group discussion, you will have lunch, and then the PI round 1 will start. Here, two panelists (one male, one female) will interview you. The interview questions will be general and based on your work experience. You may be asked about your name, something about yourself, the best and worst brand you worked for, the marketing strategy for the institute, and any questions you may have for the panelists.

After the first round, you will be asked to wait back, and some names will be announced for the Director's round. If your name is called, you will have to wait in the reception area for your turn. The Director's round will be more intense, and you may be asked questions about your work experience and why you want to pursue an MBA. Make sure to prepare well for this round.

The Director's round questions will include topics like your work experience, marketing, sales, and real estate. There may be multiple panelists, and some may not ask any questions. You may be asked to explain your document verification process if it's not in place.

If you successfully complete the interview process, you may be given a spot offer. It's important to stay positive and confident throughout the process, even if you feel nervous. Make sure to prepare well and answer all questions honestly and to the best of your ability.

Can one upgrade from one branch to another in DTU by scoring a good CGPA in first year?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : July 6th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

DTU has a unique branch change policy wherein your chances of branch change depend on your JEE Rank and not your CGPA. Earlier, DTU had no branch change policy, but this has been added recently to give relaxation to its students.

However, the catch is it is almost impossible to get branch change through JEE Rank and only the lucky ones can get their branch changed here.

Is BITS Pilani a good place to study?

PS
Prateek Sharma Posted On : July 3rd, 2023
studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

BITS Pilani is considered to be one of the top engineering institutes in India. It has a strong reputation for its academic programs and research opportunities. Let’s consider the following factors to determine if it’s a good place to study or not.

Academics

  • The faculty pool is inferior to that of the top IITs with a few exceptionally good professors
  • The professors deliver limited knowledge meant to just complete the course and not give an actual understanding of the topic at high levels.
  • The overall academic ambiance is average 

Infrastructure:

  • BITS Pilani infrastructure is considered good surrounded by natural beauty.
  • The hostels are also great with big rooms and basic amenities. 
  • The internet facilities here are amazing with a great DC++ Network. 

Peer

  • BITS Pilani is widely known for attracting the best minds thereby maintaining the crowd quality.
  • BITS has no reservation policy

Research:

  • BITS Pilani is not a government-funded institute so to conduct research the funds here are limited thus a poor research culture.
  • The quality of PhDs in BITS is pathetic and it will take some time to improve the research work.

Fees

  • It’s a well-known fact that BITS Pilani fees are very high thus becoming a major reason why students from financially unstable backgrounds cannot afford to study here.
  • Every year, the fees suffer a 15% hike which is not justified considering there is not much improvement in the facilities.

Placements

  • The placements for the IT and non-core sectors are great and at par with old IITs.
  • Core placements for Civil and Manufacturing branches are average.

In all, BITS has its weaknesses and you can consider it a good option if you are ready to overlook them.

MS
Meenu Singhal Posted On : October 1st, 2021
Studied B.E. Mechanical Engineering,Visvesvaraya Technological University (2017)

My friend graduated from Visvesvaraya Technological University with a gold medal. She ranked amongst the top ten students with the highest aggregate in CS. 

It is calculated by the average of total marks of the last four semesters. A Gold medal becomes a dream if you fail in any of the subjects.

There are 2 types of Gold medals are of two types: 

  • Merit Gold medal is given to those with the highest aggregate in their major/branch.
  • Endowment Gold medals are sponsored in different categories like for bright students of different categories and gender-based distribution.

Getting a gold medal is not impossible. Follow 2-3 additional books, study throughout the year and understand the core engineering and mathematical concepts. Internal assessments should be taken seriously as well. Be clear in your intentions and don't budge because there'll be distractions, but you can make your mark if you will it.

B.Tech from University of Kerala (2017)

Getting a B.Tech degree certificate from Kerala University, might take around 3 months. But if it is urgent, you could submit the application form along with a request stating your urgency.

Firstly you need to apply for a provisional certificate. Once you get that, you can apply for the original degree certificate along with the copies of the provisional certificate, mark sheets, and challan (original) to the concerned section or COE.

I have converted to IIM Kashipur but already paid 1 term fee at IIM Sambalpur, with no refund. What should I do?

YM
Yajnaseni Mukherjee Posted On : January 13th, 2023
Management Consultant at KPMG India

Go for it if you can afford to lose the money. If not, don't be disappointed. Just consider placements for the evaluation, as the location and life are both beautiful. Placements at IIM Kashipur have an obvious advantage, but only for the top 10% of the batch will it make a significant difference. Otherwise, you'll do well at both locations.

Furthermore, if you're looking for future entitlement, it makes little difference. IIM Kashipur is the newest, and IIM Sambalpur is the youngest. If you build a strong profile for yourself, the location between these two IIMs will not hold much value in the future. As a result, if you can afford to lose the money, do so without hesitation. If you can't afford to lose that money, forget it and you will have no regrets.

How do I convert my percentage into CGPA under RGPV University?

PJ
Priya Joshi Posted On : October 31st, 2022
B.E.(Mechanical) from Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya, Bhopal

Different universities use various conversion methods and grading systems.

In the case of RGPV, the conversion base is 10. If you receive 78% or 78 marks out of 100, your SGPA/CGPA is 7.8 out of 10 according to RGPV. To convert it to Grade Point Average, simply divide the number by ten. Thus, by multiplying by 10, the reversal equivalent percentage can be calculated.

Equivalent Percentage = (SGPA/CGPA) × 10

If you turn over your RGPV Semester Marksheet, you will see a conversion Formula to convert your CGPA/SGPA into the equivalent percentage required in a few exam forms that must be submitted during application time.

If you require an RGPV equivalent percentage conversion form, simply provide a Xerox copy of the back side of your semester mark sheet. There is no need for a complex format or the signature and seal of the university/college head.

The method for calculating SGPA and CGPA is also provided on the back page of the semester mark sheets.
