What is it like to study Physics at IIT Kharagpur?

AC
Anumita Chatterjee Posted On : March 22nd, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (IITK)

A student at IIT Kharagpur can study Physics even without attending classes or going to labs. I think the m experience in any department depends mainly on 3 factors 

  • Your own motivation
  • Professors
  • Peer group

Your own motivation: You either get inspired or are naturally motivated. The former does not need much external pressure. This means you can function well even without good facilities or professors. However, those who lack such inspiration need constant motivation to depend on good professors to develop an interest in the course and perform well. Physics is a difficult subject and one cannot solely depend upon self-study. So physics at IIT Kharagpur is not for those who lack inherited motivation.


 

Professors: Sadly, IIT Kharagpur has only a few professors that make it into the category of experienced and learned. Most professors are good at research but lack teaching skills. If the second and third-year subjects are not taught by good professors, you will face quite a bit of a downfall in this path.

Department:

Any particular department can be evaluated on the basis of labs, workload, grading, placements, and scope for higher studies.

  • Labs: The labs are neither too good nor too bad and are just considered average at IIT Kharagpur.
  • Workload: The workload is huge with 5 subjects every semester till the 4th year and 4 labs every week.
  • Grading: Absolute Grading system is followed which is quite challenging.
  • Placements: No core companies visit the campus for placements for the Physics department. So the only option left is to sit for non-core companies like IT, Analytics, Finance, Operations, and Management. However, you can get into these companies with your own set of skills provided that you stand out among recruiters.
  • Scope for higher studies: There is a lot of scope for higher studies provided that you have good internships, projects, and grades.

Peer group:

Having passionate people in your batch adds to the overall learning experience. The peer group in KGP comprises usually hostel friends or friends from societies or clubs.

How strict are the practical and theory attendance rules of IGNOU?

PN
Pallav Nagar Posted On : October 28th, 2022
Lives in Bhopal Madhya Pradesh, India

Whether the attendance rules of IGNOU are strict or not depends on your local centre solely. There is a minimum attendance criterion in place but it differs from programme to programme. 

Once you adopt the habit of self-learning it becomes quite easy. But attending classes will help you clear your doubts once in a while.

The theory sessions in IGNOU are not actual regular classes. They are just sessions to hold discussions between lecturers and students. There is no proper explanation of each chapter, just a general clarification of doubts. Attend these classes only after thoroughly going through the study materials. 

Another benefit of attending classes is meeting new people who will help you understand the topic much better. So if you are a student of IGNOU, the practical and theory attendance rules vary from centre to centre.

Which is better, B.Tech IIT & MBA IIM or IPM IIM Indore?

JT
Juby Thomas Posted On : January 24th, 2023
MBA from the Indian Institute of Planning and Management

IPM IIM Indore, and B.Tech. IIT are not any better.

Many engineers pursue their MBAs after completing their engineering degrees. Because management and engineering jobs are distinct and an MBA should be pursued in the engineering field after gaining some experience, employers are becoming warier of hiring such people today.

Many students discover they are not interested in their chosen field and subsequently lose interest in engineering or management. So, you must first decide what you are interested in. Both courses are worthwhile, but only after you determine your areas of interest.

If you are only interested in the management sector, choose IPM; however, if you are interested in engineering, choose IIT because getting into this esteemed institution is already a herculean task. Additionally, keep in mind that no institute can guarantee great success unless you pursue the courses with a laser-like focus and are prepared to put in the work. As such, choose your course with the utmost concentration.

B.E from Visvesvaraya Technological University (2022)

In order to change your branch, you need to be a 3rd-semester student without any backlogs in the previous 2 semesters. If you satisfy these criteria then go through the following steps:

  • Consider talking to your faculty advisor (proctor) in your present department and highlight the reasons for your change of branch.
  • Take his/her permission and signature on your application addressed to your Head of Department (HoD).
  • If you do not have a faculty advisor (proctor) then, directly talk to your HOD highlighting your interest in the new branch you aspire to change and then take his/her permission and signature on your application.
  • If the HoD agrees, then he/she will forward your letter to the Principal. 
  • Once you get it approved by the principal, you need to go to your college's administrative office.
  • Pay the VTU fees (INR 2500) and required semester college fees (depends on your college). 

After this, you will have successfully completed the procedure.

What are the college timings for an MMS course at JBIMS and Sydenham?

BR
Biswadip Roy Posted On : February 20th, 2023
Studied Finance at Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies

Any typical day at JBIMS depends on your workload and the ongoing semester. The duration of lectures is 3 hours with a small break. The lectures take place in the following shifts

  • 7 am-10 am
  • 2 pm-5 pm
  • 6:30 pm-9 pm

There might be one, two, or three lectures depending on your course. Another set of events that constitute a major part of your day is committee-related events like competitions. Apart from that you are always busy preparing for your presentations and assignments. Attending guest lectures is mandatory and no one can evade them.

The first semester is the busiest as it’s packed with induction, committee election, summer placements, and lectures. You won’t be able to sleep more than 4-5 hours a day and then soon adapt to the strenuous college life.

How can I score more than 90% for a B.Tech in JNTUH?

JP
Jiten Pradhan Posted On : August 3rd, 2023
Studied at Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Hyderabad (2020)

I will shed some light on the university exams situation at JNTUH. It's almost impossible to score good marks here because irrespective of what you write the correction staff simply gives you zero. They don't care what you have written and when you write the same answers in your supplementary exams, you end up getting passed. This is the reality here where the toppers fail in exams while the failures top. 

If your aim is to get 90% here, I will suggest you have a change of mind. Stop focusing on mere percentages and rather focus on gathering as much knowledge and skills as you can. Eventually, recruiters don't consider your grades but your knowledge and performance in the interview. At JNTUH, you get marks only if you write the exact words from the textbook even if it means you don't understand a single word. I will mention a few simple tips that will help you score decent marks here:

  1. Always write the answer in points; each point comprising 2-3 lines. A long answer should have at least 10-15 such points.
  2. Underline the keywords in every point and highlight the main points.
  3. Make sure your answer sheet appears organized. Use margins, draw a line after each answer, highlight the formulae, etc 
  4. Presentation is very important so dont strike off the answers as you may end up losing more marks.
  5. Write the long answers carrying 10 marks in 4 pages, short answers carrying 3 marks in 15 lines, and the 2 marks answers in 6 to 7 lines.

These tips will help you survive at JNTUH by getting decent marks but won't help you in increasing your knowledge which is very important once you leave college. So work on that as well!
