Yes, you can. There are certain differences between the two exams that you should know.

• The IPMAT has a higher level of mathematics. You will have around 5 to 10 questions that you won’t have studied, for example, logs, if you haven’t done mathematics in your 10th grade. So there will be some extra topics which you will have to prepare.
• The UGAT, on the other hand, has a general knowledge section. It is a bit tricky for those who don’t have a fair idea of what’s going on around. But it can be covered if you start preparing now.

If you think of doing a crash course when just one month of the exam is left, you will be going to the coaching for half of your day and they will try putting in a lot of information in your head so that you have a vague general idea about the syllabus but you won’t have a good foundation on any of the topics. This acts as a major problem when giving an exam such as IPMAT as the questions are quite simple but have a tricky element to them.

Therefore, it is better to start preparing as early as possible and cover all the topics at least once. Some simple topics like algebra, time and space, etc., can be left out. You can solve a specific set of questions for these topics as exam questions do not differ a lot from them.

For other topics which are comparatively difficult, use material from various coachings and you can go through those chapters at least once.

It all depends on your interest. Kumaraguru College of Technology is an autonomous, self-financing engineering college located in the outskirts of Coimbatore. Each and every student of Kumaraguru College of Technology gets equal opportunities.

One of my friends is studying here in the Electrical and Electronics department. He explained the college as full of opportunities.

• It is a place where you can explore yourself. You can join various clubs: educational as well as extra-curricular.
• There are various research groups and sports facilities are also available for students.
• The students also get a variety of open elective subjects from where they can select anyone.
• These also include gaming, sports, baking, and many more.
• 791 out of 1001 students got placed from B.Tech.

Each and every department of KCT is unique and innovative. It all finally depends on the interest of the aspiring student and how they want their career to shape up.

The placement data and statistics are not released in public, but few details get somehow leaked by the students in the placement cell.

IIT BHU kicked off its annual placement for 2019, with four international job offers and the highest salary package of INR 1.53 crore per annum. Most of these offers ranged from INR 10 LPA to INR 58.21 LPA. Some of the top recruiters that visited were Google, Uber , Microsoft, Cisco, Goldman Sachs.

Around 1063 students from BTech registered for the placements and out of which 773 students got placements. As per the trends, the department of computer science, electrical engineering, department of Mathematical sciences and electronics engineering maintained a high degree of placements.

Though the placement offering in each branch is growing every year, the highest number of placements were from Mechanical and industrial engineering departments.

The major recruiters of IIT BHU include Maruti, EXL, Wipro, Tata Steel, Oracle, Morgan Stanley, etc. The average package offered was 8.19 lakhs with 109 students placed which is the highest among other streams.

Apart from these firms, students of IIT BHU also grab opportunities for internships in many international universities. The top-notch international universities where students of IIT BHU acquired internships offered were University of Tokyo, University of London, University of New South Wales, Harvard University.

The summer internship program starts at the beginning of May and the duration is around 8 weeks in companies like Samsung, Microsoft, Tata Steel and Bajaj. As an outcome of the continuous efforts by the institute, students have been pursuing internships and projects at various national and international academic institutions and companies.

So overall, having great results in the academics, IIT BHU stands no apart from the other IITs in terms of placements and summer internships offered to the students. Lastly it is a great opportunity and learning experience for students to get admitted at IIT BHU for industrial engineering.

Yes, it is possible to join NITIE by any of the GATE examinations streams. Few of my friends got admission at NITIE through GATE. 

Admission to NITIE Mumbai through the GATE examinations from any stream of engineering will make you land up at NITIE in PGDIE – PG Diploma in Industrial Engineering.

There are two new courses available at NITIE, Mumbai: PGDPM – Project Management and PGDMM – Manufacturing Management. You can take admission to these courses through GATE too.

Coming to cut-offs, it varies from year to year. For this year the GATE cutoff score (general) was 609. If you feel you have a decent score and you'll get a GD, PI shortlist, and then you can convert it.

Courses like IPM and PGP-HRM are bold, outstanding, and pathbreaking. It took great hard work for the decision-makers to start these courses. However, the amount of success for these completely depends upon the intention.

The real question would be, “Why IPM? Why Mumbai Campus? And why opting for HRM course?”. If the answer to all of these questions is “Money” then whether IIM Indore is doing right or not will depend on the number of admissions, fees, and the ROI.

If the answer to your question is “for a good career”, then the success completely depends upon the faculty, facilities, and placements. Even if the intentions are considered to be good, most government bodies do not take the lead and act from the front. 

It is very confusing to say if the students are too ignorant to believe what they see or if the institutions are providing incorrect information
