Is there any trip for 1st year MBBS students in MAMC Delhi like AIIMS Delhi?
Yes, there is an unofficial annual trip for MAMC 1st year students, usually after the end of 1st Professional Examinations in the month of August. The trip is the perfect break from the tiring exams and is highly looked forward to by the freshers. This trip was initiated by the seniors who also accompanied students on the trip.
However, since the trip is unofficial, the students have to bear all the expenses of travel, stay, adventure activities, and meals.
My friend was a first-year student at MAMC and his batch was taken on a trip spanning Saattal-Mukteshwar-Nainital. They started the journey with a bus and soon reached their first destination. Instead of staying in hotels, they set up tents surrounded by lush greenery and lakes and waterfalls. They even organized a campfire and played all sorts of games. Many adrenaline freaks also took part in adventure sports like Rock climbing, Rappelling, Kayaking, flying fox, etc.
Overall, it was an amazing experience and I recommend going on the batch trip once with your batchmates.

What are the chances of getting an admission into IIM Calcutta?
Let’s discuss the changes in getting admission into IIM Calcutta through past figures (general category only).
Apart from CAT score, the chances of getting into IIMC depend on various factors such as
-
Academic profile (i.e. marks in 10th, 12th, and undergraduate)
-
Academic Diversity
-
Work experience
-
Gender Diversity
-
Category-based evaluation (EWS, NC-OBC, SC, ST, PWD)
IIM Calcutta has around 200-220 general category seats. Also, it rejects 4 students for 1 selection which means around 1100 students are shortlisted. To be among these 1100 students you need to have at least 99.33 percentile.
The chances increase if you are a favorable candidate apart from a high CAT score. Being a female, non-engineer, decent work experience. If you aren’t then your cutoff increases to 99.5.
Your chances drop to 0.5% and passing the interview round becomes more difficult.
So work around the factors I have mentioned beforehand to become a favorable candidate for admission into IIMC

Which college is better Chandigarh University or CGC Landran for engineering in CSE?
CGC Landran is an older college with a better reputation than Chandigarh University simply because more people are aware of it. Whereas Chandigarh University is a newer institution with the same owner.
However, there are some significant differences between CGC Landran and Chandigarh University -
-
CGC Landran is a college affiliated with another university. This means that your DMCs, degree and other formalities will take some time. Whereas Chandigarh University is a deemed university, you can get all of these documents quickly.
-
Because Chandigarh University is a university, they have the freedom to change its syllabus and rotate its subjects in response to industry demands, which CGC Landran does not have.
-
Placements at CGC Landran and Chandigarh University are all the same because they all take place at the same time.
-
Chandigarh University has a growing campus with 1 or 2 buildings being built every 6 months, whereas CGC Landran is a fully constructed campus. CU is also very developed now, with over 15 food joints and cafeterias, which is fantastic. You can decide for yourself by visiting both campuses.
-
Teachers at CU are much better than teachers at CGC Landran because they are paid more. Because a university pays its teachers more than a college. And it goes without saying that the more you pay, the more you get.
CGC is the location. Landran is in a small city near Chandigarh, and buses to Rajpura, Patiala, Sirhind, and Kharar are not readily available due to the longer time intervals between them. CU, on the other hand, is directly on the Chandigarh-Ludhiana national highway, with a bus leaving every 10 minutes for either Chandigarh or Ludhiana. For Patiala students, CU is closer to Patiala than CGC, even though CGC is closer in distance.
Overall, they are similar institutions, but the distinction between a college and a university cannot be overlooked. If you can, go for CGC; if you can't, CU is the better option.

What's it like to be a postgraduate student in NIMHANS?
One of my friends was a student from an electronics engineering background who took Neuroscience for M.Phil. A lot of people have questioned his choice, but he said that it was a good decision and enjoyed learning about the course. Let me share his experience.
- He, including all other students, was posted in a new department every month. His first posting was in Human Genetics.
- They used to have a lecture series, starting with the History of Genetics, Basic Readings, Hot Research Topics, etc. This was followed by practicals with hands-on training.
- They attended all the seminars, journal club, viva, or thesis defenses happening in the department.
- Towards the end of their one-month posting; they have to present a seminar, submit an assignment, and take an internal exam.
- They also interact with the Ph.D. students to get an overview of research carried out in each department.
- The course was designed in such a way that full freedom is given to learning.
If you do not study and follow properly, it becomes difficult. He was content with his choice, stating that it is hard work that only matters. Except for the MD courses and nursing specialties all the courses here at NIMHANS are super specialties and research degrees (Ph.D./MPhil).
Which one is better for doing PG in neurology; NIMHANS or AIIMS?
Both AIIMS and NIMHANS are excellent options for pursuing a PG in neurology. While choosing one between the two, you might want to consider the following simple differences
- Courses: DM Neurology is offered at both AIIMS and NIMHANS. Both the colleges offer this course after PG in General Medicine for which you will have to pass the exams conducted by respective institutes.
- Courses after MBBS : NIMHANS offers a direct 5 years of DM neurology course after MBBS while AIIMS does not offer any direct DM neurology course after MBBS. So If you choose NIMHANS, you will not have to take an entrance exam for admission to DM after PG in general medicine. NIMHANS certainly gives a huge edge in this aspect.
- Practice: AIIMS has a huge patient load most of which is dealt with by senior citizens. So, you will not get much clinical exposure and will be entrusted with trivial tasks only. NIMHANS on the other hand is a national-level neuro institute where you will get to deal with all types of patients right from the first year.
- Location: AIIMS Delhi has a clear advantage over NIKHANS in terms of location.
So choose wisely!
Which private engineering colleges are better than kiit university?
KIIT is certainly one of the most highly-reputed colleges in Eastern India and its official rankings are a testament to the same. One of my friends was in a great dilemma and took Civil Engineering at KIIT during counseling but ended up getting admission somewhere else. Till the end, he wasn’t satisfied with the institute especially because of its increasing intake. The high competition makes it impossible to get a good job and all the high fees you spend goes to waste. He knew KIIT offers a very dynamic college life which he will be missing out on if he doesn't take admission but the high strength dissuaded him.
That being said, you can choose among the following private engineering colleges which are well-known for their excellent education and placements.
- BITS Pilani
- BITS Hyderabad
- BIT Mesra
- RVCE Bangalore
- VIT University
- Thapar University
- Manipal Institute of Technology
- IIIT Hyderabad
- Dhirubhai Ambani IICT
- MIT Pune
