This question can be best answered by someone who has had a taste of both campuses. Fortunately one of my friends was lucky enough to move to IIM Ahmedabad after studying for a year at IIM Kozhikode. He shared his experience and the various things that contrasted in both the B Schools.

Faculty: Being the topmost B School, IIM Ahmedabad does attract some of the best faculties that are experts in their fields. They had too much knowledge and experience to impart making the classes a thrilling experience.

Crowd: While the crowd at almost all the good B Schools attracts only the best, IIM Ahmedabad is famous for its exceptionally good peer groups with only geniuses and masterminds in their respective fields.

Academic rigor: Normally B Schools offer a very hectic life with academic pressure combined with placements and clubs and committee activities. But at IIM Ahmedabad the topmost preference is Academics only. You are required to attend 3 lectures of 75 minutes of case study daily. These case studies are extremely lengthy and on average you are required to read 300 pages every day. Such economic rigor is lacking in the case of IIM Kozhikode.

There are several more minor differences between IIM Kozhikode and IIM Ahmedabad but these 3 are the main things an aspirant needs to consider while choosing one of the two B Schools.

It depends on which generation of IITs you are comparing DTU with. If you are comparing it with old IITs like IIT Delhi, Madras, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Guwahati, Roorkee, and Bombay, then the answer is no, DTU stands nowhere near them. 

However, comparing DTU to the new IITs like IIT Hyderabad, Indore, Mandi, Jodhpur etc you will find that DTU fairs better in terms of alumni network, and has better placements than new IITs. You can say that DTU roughly lies somewhere between the old and the new IITs. 

Within India, you will find DTU to have a strong brand name because of its rich legacy of being the mother institution of IIT Delhi and NSIT. But internationally, only IITs enjoy recognition and hardly any foreign companies are aware of the DTU brand name. 

Both JIPMER and AIIMS Bhubaneswar are equally good in terms of infrastructure and academics. While JIPMER has a magnificent campus, AIIMS Bhubaneswar buildings are more modern because of recent construction. Overall, there aren't many differences between the 2 institutes. The academics, infrastructure, and hostel facilities are somewhat similar. but if I was in your place, I would have chosen JIPMER, Puducherry for UG over AIIMS Bhubaneswar. While this may surprise many, I have logical reasons to support my stance. The one solid reason why I chose JIPMER was the beauty and the places to explore. 

• The breakfast shops in Auroville
• The Rocky Beach with moonlight shimmering on the water.
• The Le Cafe 
• Villa Shanti 
• Villa Helena, Celine’s Kitchen, DisDis&Co, Satsunga, Le Club, Rendezvous, Villa Krish, Coromandel Cafe, and many more.
• A pretty resort, Ocean Spray

While some might find it illogical to prefer a certain institute just because of the restaurants near it, for me it certainly is a valid point. As a medical student, it’s very important to take breaks and these beautiful places will surely take you to a different world. 

However, JIPMER is suitable only for UG. For PG, AIIMS Bhubaneswar is the best option because the language barrier is a major problem in the South.

Overall, JIPMER is an excellent option for UG while AIIMS Bhubaneswar can be preferred for PG,

Among these, Calcutta University is better. The university sets the most difficult question papers. You need to put in a lot of effort to score even 60 percent. With the same amount of effort, you can score 80 percent in DU. 

Naturally, CU puts emphasis on in-depth learning. CU students have a more academic-oriented life. While students of DU have the freedom to carry out secondary endeavors.

I studied at NIET, and my close friend chose GL Bajaj. So I know the ground reality of both these colleges. 

In terms of placements and academics, both are the same. However, GL Bajaj has quite strict rules. It follows a dress code and is way more strict regarding attendance. Even if you are 5 minutes late, the main entrance won’t be opened for you. Ultimately, you’ll end up waiting outside for an hour or so. Also, you won’t be able to take leaves without prior permission from concerned authorities. 

NIET does not have such strict rules and regulations. It offers a much more free environment. 

So if you want more freedom, GL Bajaj is the right college. For placements and studies, both are at par with one another. 

Here are some details about both these colleges-

VSSUT holds a strong reputation in Orissa, but CET isn’t that popular. One reason being that there are plenty of Engineering institutes in Bhubaneswar. VSSUT offers better placement prospects than CET. Even though CET receives more companies due to its favorable location, VSSUT receives more job offers. 

VSSUT is quite old, and has a rich legacy. CET is also old, but comparatively new. The location of CET allows easy access to coaching centers, and offers more facilities for extracurriculars.

Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. You can choose between the two based on your preferences and goals.

IIM Indore and IIM Kozhikode are very similar to each other in most aspects, including placements. 

But the main issue is IIM Indore’s huge batch size. IIM Indore admits almost double the MBA students as compared to IIM Kozhikode. This leads to immense competition among its students, even though Indore has an advantage over Kozhikode in terms of its recruiter numbers and profiles. 

Apart from placements, a huge student intake places a lot of burden on the infrastructure and faculty at IIM Indore. The faculty to students ratio is better at IIM Kozhikode. But IIM Indore enjoys great connectivity, which IIM Kozhikode does not. 

Both of them are highly prestigious business schools in India, and you shouldn’t just consider placements while choosing between them. Moreover, the market conditions can hugely affect the placements of a college for a certain year. Its impact may differ from one college to another.

IBS Hyderabad will be better than IMT Hyderabad. It teaches Harvard cases in the 3rd and 4th semesters. The course work includes more than 1000 case studies. Many of the professors in this institute are internationally acclaimed.  

IBS Hyderabad placement records have been pretty good over the recent years. During 2022 placement drive, the average CTC offered was INR 8.55 LPA. While the highest CTC offered was INR 53.45 LPA (International). 

However, IBS Hyderabad has a huge batch size. Due to the large batch size, all the students don’t get groomed and placed well. 

IIIT Hyderabad is the better option to secure your career. Here, the main attraction in CLD is the LTRC laboratory. You can also publish your papers at top conferences. IIT Hyderabad increases your chances of earning your MS and Ph.D. abroad, and CLD branch students have ample job opportunities. Last but not least, IITs are the best option for your overall development as they encourage students in both academics and extra-curricular activities.
