What are your reviews about NIT Agartala?

KP
Kalyan Pande Posted On : September 18th, 2023
Lives in Agartala

Based on the experience of a friend here are some points regarding NIT Agartala

  • Honestly, NIT Agartala is not at par with the standard of the Institute of National Importance. The administration and faculties do not give students access to the facilities.
  • Most of the faculties have no teaching abilities , and there is a huge communication gap between students and professors.
  • Students are not allowed to do projects from the second year and it's also very hard to get a good CGPA. 
  • Only the CSE and ECE departments have modern infrastructure and the rest of the departments are not taken care of. There is also bias in how students of different branches are treated. 
  • The hostel facilities of the institute are excellent and the buildings are beautifully designed. However, students are restricted from bringing basic electrical equipment to boil milk, water, and heat Maggie.
  • The tender of the mess food always goes to the same company and students constantly lodge complaints regarding the quality of the food.
  • The institute has a 75% attendance policy that many find illogical and rigid.

Overall, NIT Agartala will give you a lot of good memories and friends but is still lacking on the academic front.

Why is PEC losing its good ranking? Is it true that NIT Jalandhar will cross it within a few years??

VS
Vanash Sikka Posted On : December 2nd, 2022
B.Tech. in Electronics and Engineering, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Institute of Technology, Jalandhar (NITJ) (Graduated 2020)

PEC's previous director wasn’t a very good educationist. The infrastructure, curriculum and the extracurriculars suffered under his leadership. 

But things have changed in PEC now. The new director has the opposite ideals. There has been a gradual increase in the quality of education at PEC. Some changes are:

  • Infrastructure is being improved 

  • The curriculum has been made more challenging 

  • PEC Fest stole the show for the year 

So the long standing reputation combined with the strong alumni network will not disappoint you. PEC is not losing its good ranking and NIT Jalandhar is nowhere near it.

How is the MTech (research) CS program of IISC Bangalore in terms of placements?

PK
Pranavi Khurana Posted On : July 14th, 2023
Studied at IISC Banglore

In IISc Bangalore, the MTech (Research) students sit for placements along with MTech (Course) students. In fact, MTech (Research) students are often treated as rivals by the course students. Here are a few reasons for their differences 

  • The research students have lesser courses than course students, rendering them more time to prepare for placements.
  • Secondly, research students sit for placements in their third year while the course students sit in their second year. 
  • MTech Research students generally start their research work in their second semester itself so they become better researchers and are able to secure the best job profiles. 

Because of the above reasons, the majority of MTech (Research) students get placed better than course students. These research students usually go into 3 streams, theory, systems, and intelligent systems. The placement scenario for each has been given below

  • Theory: Theory students might face issues in system-based companies especially if they lack coding skills. These students are usually proficient in math and thus lack skills in systems. However, a 3-month dedicated preparation can get them placed excellently.
  • Systems: These students are easily placed in top companies such as Oracle, Nutanix, Microsoft, and many more.
  • Intelligent Systems: These students are hired by companies such as Flipkart, Amazon, Microsoft, etc.

Although research is time-consuming, the light coursework helps the research students prepare for placements. Over the past few years, MTech (Research) students receive packages around INR 22 LPA and the scenario is just going to get better!

For IIT JEE which coaching institute in Bhubaneswar is the best??

KS
Kalyan Sahu Posted On : June 16th, 2023
Lives in Bhubaneshwar

The best coaching technique at Bhubaneswar is to take individual subject coaching and then take the weekend program of a reputed coaching program like

  •  FIITJEE Bhubaneswar
  • Resonance Bhubaneswar
  • ALLEN Bhubaneswar 

If you have some financial constraints, go for the DLP of ALLEN Or Resonance. If you are an above-average student who has taken prior coaching then FIITJEE Bhubaneswar. Another good option for above-average students is the School Integrated Program with ODM. At FIITJEE focus is given to high-level problems and not to basics so ho through NCERTS before. Here are a few other coaching options for IIT JEE in Bhubaneswar. 

  • Chemistry taught by KK Sir at KK classes in Satya Nagar
  • Physics taught by PD Sir in JEE Pathshala in Madhusudan Nagar
  • For Math, the best 2 options are Mohit Tyagi Lectures available for free on YouTube and RK Sir in Paathshala 
  • Samal Physics is another decent option at Forest Park 

Make sure to take 5-6 demo classes before joining any coaching institute.

Is Mizoram University a good option for a B.Tech?

HP
Hiten Patel Posted On : January 20th, 2022
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, Mizoram University (2018)

One of my friends studied at Mizoram University (MZU). According to him, it is not a good choice to opt for MZU to pursue engineering.

Here are some reasons why:

  • The infrastructure is not at par with other Government Funded Technical Institutions (GFTIs). 
  • Students are not allowed to use the multimedia lab, also they lack updated technologies.
  • The curriculum is obsolete and does not match with the latest industrial requirements. 
  • The content that is taught here will not extend your skill set or make you more employable. 
  • In the final year, every student is required to undergo Industrial Training for a minimum of 30 days and a maximum of 45 days. There is no scope for any internships. 
  • The faculty members are not competent and lack fundamental knowledge of their respective subjects.
  • The hostels often face insufficient electricity and water supply.
  • The mess food is not at all hygienic. Students have complained to authorities about these issues but they pay no attention to them.
  • The wifi connection is also unstable.
  • Placements are not up to the mark. Getting placed in service-oriented companies like Wipro, TCS, etc. is seen as an accomplishment.

Therefore, it is suggested that you do not opt for MZU to study engineering, because it will not be worthwhile. As you will learn less and even fall out of job opportunities.

What is the in-hand salary of students who got a 43 LPA job offer on campus placements from IIIT Hyderabad or IIIT Allahabad?

DS
Divya Saraf Posted On : October 16th, 2023
Lives in Hyderabad

Every company has its own way of breaking down the CTC components. So, CTC and in hand salary aren’t directly correlated.

For example, Microsoft offers a CTC of 44 LPA but the base salary is somewhere around 13-14 LPA. Codenation, on the other hand, offers 33.5 LPA with a base salary of 25+ LPA. 

This doesn’t mean that Microsoft isn’t paying what it offered. Brands like Microsoft, Google, etc. offer lots of perks and employee benefits. These are included in the CTC. On the other hand, startups offer more cash and lesser perks. 

Investment banks like Goldman Sachs or Tower Research also pay a large portion of the promised CTC as in-hand salary. Atlassian offers a CTC of 52 LPA, but the in-hand salary is less than that of Goldman Sachs whose CTC is between 32-35 LPA. 

So the graduates of IIIT Allahabad, IIIT Hyderabad, or any other college will get an in hand salary depending on the recruiting company.
