AS
Ashmita Sinha Posted On : April 6th, 2023
Masters from Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi

Both institutes are elite in their unique ways and no one can be compared to another. So it’s better to determine the right one based on personal preferences. Some common points of difference based on common aspects are

  • Location: While Delhi has a central location, IIT Madras is located in South India. For many, location is a matter of personal preference and thus it’s important to determine your own needs. Sometimes the opportunities offered also vary from location to location.
  • Academics: A wide range of programs are offered by both institutes covering areas of engineering, science, and humanities. Talk to your seniors to determine which courses suit you best.
  • Faculty: Both IITs have an excellent faculty pool with diverse research interests and areas of expertise. 
  • Infrastructure: Both IITs have excellent facilities with top-notch classrooms, well-stacked libraries, highly equipped laboratories, and a wide range of entertainment facilities.

Both institutes give a strong edge to each other in almost all aspects and thus the final decision should be made based on specific goals Sc interests and priorities.

MBBS Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, SDM College of Medical Sciences and Hospital (2018)

Passing in the first-year MBBS examination RGUHS requires a bit of tip and tricks. If you are an average student try following these as it could be helpful.

  • Buy a companion (Yatiraj Singhi) and mark all RS2 and RS3 questions in the textbooks (focussing more on RS3) and read that much only. 
  • To pass it is not necessary to study the complete syllabus.
  • Read All 3 markers questions from previous 5-year question papers, you can get it from the library or seniors. 
  • Your target should be to score at least 22+ of the given 30. Once you have scored it, you need to score is 28 more to pass the exams.
  • For this, you are left with 5 and 10 marker questions, which means that you have to score 28 out of 70.
  • Try scoring 3 marks each from the questions you know. You are done with 18 more marks. 
  • For the rest of the 4 questions, you should write it in such a way that you manage to score at least 1.5 - 2 marks for each question. 
  • For this, you should make diagrams and write a bit about them.
  • Your strategy is to not waste much time on 10 markers while studying but to focus more on diagrams and flowcharts. 

MCQs will also be there which come under the same high-scoring category but they could come from any part of the book.

What is your review of the Faculty of Management Studies, University of Delhi?

RJ
Rishit Jain Posted On : December 30th, 2022
Studied at Faculty of Management Studies, University of Delhi

One of the most cited B Schools in India, the Faculty of Management Studies focuses more on management education and not just on business management. The pedagogy comprises fieldwork, case studies, and feedback with a strong emphasis on concepts and theory.

According to IIFT 2022, its national rank is 4th. I will try to give an unbiased review based on the following aspects 

Placements

FMS Delhi maintains a stable placement record of almost 100% over the years. Students receive high salary packages every year. The highest salary this year stood at INR 58 LPA whereas the average salary stood at INR 34.2 LPA which increased by 30.5% as compared to the previous year. Some major firms that visited the campus for recruitment are Boston Consulting Group, Nykaa, Paytm, Adobe, Adani Group, and BYJU.

Infrastructure 

Although FMS offers no special hostel facilities, the DU hostels are also a choice. Around 20% of the batch go for hostels test search for PGs or flats near the campus itself. The students can avail of playground and sports facilities at Delhi University.

Faculty 

The faculty is top-notch and very experienced. The teaching is not restricted to classrooms and assignments rather the faculty adopts a case-based approach. Various live projects are conducted every year. Top management executives visit the campus and hold guest lectures to provide maximum exposure to its students. Other assignments and field projects have tight deadlines and aid in the proper evaluation of the students.

So overall I think FMS is really a good choice for someone who wants to learn from the best at minimal expenses.

BS
Barnali Sen, Posted On : November 15th, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering & MBA in Project Management, University of Kerala (2017)

There is no option for mercy pass at Kerala University. But you can get a mercy chance to qualify in their passed subjects.

This is the last chance given by the university to those who were unable to pass for the 3rd time.

The exam will be a regular one, tough enough as the usual standard of exams in Kerala University. The valuation is also strict, but here the cutoff mark is reduced to 30, instead of 40.

How does IIIT Hyderabad produce so many world-class programmers every year?

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

There are a number of technical reasons why IIIT Hyderabad produces so many world-class programmers every year but I will be keeping the 2 most obvious points.

  • The institute has only two branches so the batch size of a particular branch is higher than the batch size of the same branch in other institutes with many branches. So the chances of finding better programmers in a larger group are higher.
  • It's a fact that IIIT Hyderabad has a CS-oriented culture and thus attracts the most talented individuals. The majority of assignments are programming based. Additionally, many college activities like hackathons, programming contests, etc are conducted throughout the year. 

Ultimately the crowd is motivated to become great programmers because of the reputation of the college in the same.

What is the reputation of IIMs and XLRI outside India?

GS
Gaurav Sharma Posted On : April 10th, 2023
studied at Xavier School of Management

If you are considering pursuing higher education, you may be wondering whether a degree from a foreign university is worth the investment. Here are some points to consider:

  • Indian vs Foreign degree: While having a degree from a prestigious Indian business school like IIM or XLRI can give you an edge in certain industries, it may not be enough to secure top positions in international organizations. For example, most top tech companies like Google and Microsoft have CEOs who are not from Indian business schools.
  • Prestige of foreign universities: Many foreign universities are well-known for their high-quality education, research opportunities, and global networks. Some of the most prestigious universities in the world are located in countries like the US, UK, and Australia.
  • Networking opportunities: Studying abroad can provide you with opportunities to connect with people from diverse backgrounds, which can help you build a global network of contacts. This can be especially beneficial if you are interested in pursuing an international career.
  • Career prospects: Having a degree from a foreign university can increase your chances of finding employment in certain industries or countries. Employers may be impressed by your international experience and language skills and may view you as a valuable asset to their organization.
  • Cultural exposure: Studying in a foreign country can expose you to new cultures, languages, and ways of thinking. This can help you develop a broader perspective and become more adaptable to change.

Ultimately, the decision to pursue a degree from a foreign university should depend on your personal goals and priorities. If you have the opportunity to study at a reputable foreign university, it may be worth considering the benefits and weighing them against the potential costs. However, if you are unable or unwilling to study abroad, there are still many great Indian business schools that can provide you with a high-quality education and excellent career prospects.
