What is the best course of action if one has to choose between NMIMS Bangalore, GIM and TAPMI?
When deciding between three institutes like NMIMS, TAPMI, and GIM, one can compare various parameters like courses offered and placements. More importantly, eligibility is also another important criterion to consider when applying for admission to either of these institutes. The following points highlight these aspects:

What is the difference if I choose FMS (Delhi), JBIMS (Mumbai) or SJSOM-IIT Bombay over IIM-B, SPJIMR and other such institutes that charge hefty for MBA courses?
Choosing a B-school can be a tricky decision especially when it comes to ROI. I understand that ROI is one of the most important factors when it comes to MBA courses since funding your education with loans come with its own set of challenges. But the institutes that you have mentioned above certainly surpass the challenges since they belong to the tier 1 category.
You might come across articles and blogs stating that FMS or JBIMS do not provide a typical MBA environment but for me, that discussion does not even make sense. What is an MBA environment after all? You spent 2 years of your life at the campus and wish to land a good job. FMS, JBIMS, and IIT Bombay all three have good market reputations, they home the best candidates and charge minimal fees. So, if ROI is even a little bit of a concern for you, go for these colleges without any second thought or regret.
Which college is better for a BA triple major, Christ University or St. Joseph College (Bangalore) in terms of extra curriculars as well as freedom?
Both Christ University and St. Joseph College Bangalore are reputed. In terms of quality of education, the former is a little ahead. However, economically St. Joseph is a better choice. As the course fees are more affordable. But both will provide you with decent opportunities. Christ offers better foreign exposure in terms of foreign lecturers and professors.
Christ is also quite strict regarding dress codes and rules on campus. Accommodation around Christ is cheaper compared to St. Joseph. Since St. Joseph is located in central Bangalore.
You can choose either of these two institutions, according to your convenience
Is it worth doing an E MBA from IIM Bangalore? I work as SSE. I make around 50 lakhs per annum, age 32 and I have a B Com.
If you measure the worth of a degree by its salary, you will never be satisfied, and I recommend that you do not pursue an MBA. Money is only one of many factors to consider before beginning an MBA program. The salary you have is something that most people do not get even after an MBA/Executive MBA; average salary packages range between Rs. 22 and Rs. 25 lakhs. You are already earning twice as much.
If you want to advance your knowledge of business/strategy/finance/organizational behavior and advance to a higher position where you can have a significant impact, an MBA is unquestionably a good option. However, there is no guarantee that you will earn more than 50 lakhs after completing your EMBA. Go for it if you want to learn and are willing to take a pay cut after your MBA. Don't do it if you're only in it for the money. You could invest in the stock market and watch your money double over time. MBA does not magically transform 50 lakhs into 1 crore.
Which is better for competitive programming: Jadavpur University or IIEST, Shibpur?
Any college can be good for competitive programming. It all relies on you to educate yourself, to learn new strategies, and to spend hours coding.
- Anudeep Nekkanti is one such example. He was recruited by Google and qualified for ACM ICPC world finals. If you look at the name of his college, it's not one of those elite ones.
- There was no competitive programming pattern in BESU/IIEST until recently. But many students have taken competitive programming platforms such as Codechef and HackerRank over the last few years.
- You can search the Codechef Rating System site to verify it for yourself. You get a college-wise database of the number of students actively engaged in competitive coding and their results using this platform.
Lastly, don't support the myth that the only way to prove yourself as a coder is competitive programming. There are other coding fields as well. In this sense, do not consider that there was no "real coder" in IIEST because there was no competitive coding pattern previously in IIEST (BESU back then).
Some of the alumni of the institute are working in top companies in India and overseas and have never been interested in competitive coding.

Why did IIM Ahmedabad discontinue its public policy course?
I am aware that this has never been the case. In reality, the Jindal School of Public Policy at IIM-A has started the process of constructing new campus facilities and hiring new academic staff. The public policy course was established with the support of the JSW Group. The JSW School of Public Policy (JSW-SPP) has already hosted numerous dignitaries and presentations from eminent academics from around the globe.

What exam do I have to give to be eligible for admission in LUVAS Hisar in a BVSc course in the 85 reserved state quota?
Since last year, i.e 2020, LUVAS Hisar has not conducted any separate exam for admission in BVSc course. You just have to appear for the NEET exam and be sure to crack it well.
They decide the cut-off based on your NEET marks and the number of students who appear for the exam that apply in LUVAS. All the admission seats- be it the 85% State Quota seats or the 15% VCI All India seats- require the same criteria for it to be successful, i.e NEET marks. Even the counselling will take place separately for the State Quota and All India VCI Quota.
