You will be shortlisted based on your board score. The selection process is followed by a computer-based aptitude test and a personal interview session. My friend appeared for this exam and she had mentioned that the mathematics section was taken from JEE Main and there were certain questions based on logic.

The interviewers would ask for certain proofs of whatever you have accomplished. So, you would have to carry along your certificates as they ask about your participation in extracurriculars and look at the certificates as proof. These certificates can be of anything you have partaken in dancing, singing, drama or any other activity you like.

In the interview, they will consider things like your JEE marks, passions, and ambition in life. Plus, the obvious- why do you want to take admission in SSN College, and what all options do you consider as your backup options. This entire interview process checks what kind of a person you are in terms of talent. It will be an advantage if you can speak fluently in English.

Placements of the IT department are at par with the CSE department as it is the most sought-after branch after CSE. Many top companies give references to IT students.

You can put all your worries to rest regarding the hostel conditions at NSUT if you are a girl and be prepared for the best experience of your life. 

The hostels have all kinds of rooms, single, double, and triple occupancy rooms. The triple occupancy rooms do not mean one room with three beds but three separate rooms for 3 girls that are interconnected. Every set of rooms has its own washroom. 

Additionally, the girls' hostel is air-conditioned and isn’t overcrowded at all. Students of all branches stay together so you get a diverse experience.

The hostel and mess rules are more flexible for the girls' hostel than the boys' hostel. So come here to spend the best years of your life!

Honestly, IIT Jodhpur has very few gem professors. My sister who studies there mentioned 2 of her favorite professors and why she considered them a gem

Shanmuganathan Raman: He deserves all the love and respect he gets from his students because of the kind of teacher he is.

• His knowledge of his subject is excellent, sometimes leaving you speechless.
• He has a great rapport with the students and you will be surprised to know that he remembers every student's name.
• His South Indian accent is very charming and humorous.
• His classes are intriguing and you won’t be bored even for a minute.
• His explanations of the concepts are what makes most students his fan.

Kiran Kumar Hiremath: As a whole, he is somewhat like Raman sir only.

• He has a very charming smile and he has a sweet nature.
• He is proficient in his subject and delivers the concepts excellently.
• He maintains a friendly bond with students often lightening the classroom tension with his jokes
• He is a person filled with enthusiasm and gives off positive vibes during the lectures that motivate the students.

Additionally, she also mentioned Vivek Vijay sir who is a mentor to many students.

No, it’s just a preconceived notion that MIT has only rich spoiled kids and no one is serious about academics here. Not everyone you find here is rich some are hardworking students who are studying hard to repay the loan they had to take for its high fees. MIT has several active student clubs and many students are involved in technical stuff day and night. 

Manipal also has “Student Projects” wherein every student project comprises a small and talented team of students with similar interests and passion for building something big, be it Robots, Cars, Satellites, Rovers, or Drones.

Some of the major student projects are:

1. Project Manas - Build a self-driving car.
2. RoboManipal - Makes robots and competes with various robotics teams in India.
3. Solar Mobil - Trying to make a fully solar-powered car.

There are many other students' projects too. The purpose of mentioning this is to highlight the kind of academic exposure and opportunities this institute has. The CS students actively participate in collecting and analyzing the data from their surroundings and work very hard to achieve their goals. 

Manipal caters to almost everything, be it Developing mobile applications, building websites, writing, or even a start-up. It also provides facilities for participating in MOOCs or Online courses or Competitive coding. The well-stocked Central Library is home to many hardworking students. 

Ultimately, MIT is not only for the rich kids but also caters to the hardworking ones. It’s you who will decide what you reap here!
