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
Hope this was helpful!
Which one should I choose: TAPMI, FORE, or LBSIM?
Honestly speaking, TAPMI, FORE, and LBSIM are very similar in terms of curriculum. Many of my friends have completed PGDM from FORE and TAPMI. Even the comp ones that visit the campus for placements are very similar and not much comparison can be done between the 2 B Schools. The placements report too will reveal a similar list of companies visiting. Some minor differences between these B Schools are
- TAPMI is a residential campus unlike FORE and therefore has an upper hand in this aspect. You can spend more time on group research and assignments.
- FORE has a locational advantage compared to TAPMI as it is located in the capital city whereas TAPMI is situated on the Konkan Coast.
Recruiters consider all top 2 B Schools in the same league. What matters more than your B School choice is what you plan to do from your PGDM course.
Which college should be preferred? SIBM Pune or IIM Shillong?
Most MBA aspirants prefer IIM Shillong over SIBM Pune. Having an IIM degree certainly offers some perks. You will get better placement opportunities and exposure. IIM Shillong placements 2022 had an average CTC of around INR 21.71 LPA. The highest CTC offered this year was INR 32.2 LPA. The institute offers a high ROI.

Both the colleges, Sir MVIT and BIT, are part of VTU and are well known for Engineering courses and MBA. They offer almost every undergraduate course in engineering including:
- Civil Engineering

Location: Sir MVIT is situated on the outskirts of the Bengaluru city near the airport. This gives a good environment for studies and students remain away from the city’s noisy & hectic crowd and unwanted distractions.

While talking about BIT which situated in the heart of Bengaluru city. Markets, Restaurants, pubs, and all other facilities are easily available for a student of BIT. Mobility for students is very easy as National College metro station and KR Market metro station are within walking distance from the college.
Campus: SMVIT has a huge 133 Acres campus. It is said that SMVIT has the biggest campus among all colleges in Bengaluru. Unlike BIT which has the main building and all classrooms and labs in it, SMVIT has different buildings for each department. The hostels in SMVIT are big and spacious but students are not allotted single rooms here. The hostel has a gym, Badminton court, Table Tennis, Chess and Carrom facilities available. Whereas BIT has a boys hostel on campus but the girls’ hostel is nearly 10Kms away in JP Nagar.
Fee Structure: The annual fee for B.E. and M.Tech course in Sir MVIT costs about Rs.78,000 and for the MBA program, it is around Rs. 68,500. In BIT, the total fee for B.E. costs about Rs.5 lakhs and the annual fee for M.Tech is around Rs.67,500. The complete MBA program in BIT costs about Rs.7.5 lakhs. So, clearly SMVIT has a lower fee as compared to BIT.

Which is a better option for a liberal undergraduate course FLAME or Ashoka University ?
For liberal undergraduate course, Ashoka University is a better choice. Ashoka University's course format is more flexible. Students can choose their major from a total of 21 per or interdisciplinary options. Ashoka University follows a rigorous pedagogy. The course structure will force you to become more creative.
FLAME offers more freedom in terms of artistic creativity. It’s easier to create and make art supported by the facilities offered at the campus itself.
Is IIM Calcutta an "IIM Ahmedabad" rejected college?
I think comparing both IIM Ahmedabad and IIM Calcutta is doing injustice to these colleges. Both the IIMs are excellent at their own level.
If you consider the rankings then IIM Ahmedabad tips the list and IIM Calcutta comes next. But do rankings really matter that much? It might be possible that a certain college is on top of the list but inconvenient for you and a certain college is second in the list and is best suited for you.
I have seen friends who have rejected offers from IIM Ahmedabad and went for IIM Calcutta because it suited their needs better.
Some special features of IIM Calcutta that IIM Ahmedabad does not have are:
-
A finance lab with a Bloomberg terminal
-
Top notch finance faculty
-
CEMS-MiM programme (Masters in Management programme ranked 7th in the world)
So yes IIM Ahmedabad is the best IIM but IIM Calcutta is also not an ordinary one. Choose the one that suits your needs best rather than which ranks the most.
Which is beter NIT Kurukshetra or MNIT Jaipur?
Both MNIT Jaipur and NIT Kurukshetra are well-reputed engineering institutes in India, offering UG and PG programs in diverse fields.

- Ranking : NIT Kurukshetra B.Tech ranking by NIRF is 58 out of 200 colleges in India in 2023 while MNIT Jaipur B.Tech ranking by NIRF is 37 out of 200 in India in 2023

- Faculty : Both NITs have highly qualified and well-regarded faculties who are experts in their respective fields. However, MNIT Jaipur has a more diverse faculty with a higher number of Ph.D. holders.
- Infrastructure : MNIT Jaipur has a more well-developed and well-maintained campus offering a better campus life and facilities.

In all both institutes offer somewhat similar opportunities so you should consider your priorities and preferences to make an informed decision.
How would you compare and contrast PMCH and AIIMS, Patna for an undergraduate?
AIIMS Patna with its fast-paced growth and the AIIMS tag seems a more lucrative option than PMCH. Here are a few points of comparison between the 2
