Which is better for CSE, an NIT or IIIT?

AA
Anubhav Agarwal Posted On : May 26th, 2021
BTech CSE, NIT Surathkal (2018)

Among NITs, NIT Trichy, NIT Warangal, and NIT Surathkal have great CSE programs. Their CSE course is at par with the top IIITs in the country. 

Among IIITs, IIIT Hyderabad is the best option for a CSE course. IIIT Allahabad is pretty good too but not at the same level as IIIT Hyderabad. 

Choose the institute you are getting based on your rank. In case you have the option to choose any of these NITs and IIIT Hyderabad, then compare infrastructural facilities, location, etc. to make a decision. 

Not so reputed NITs like NIT Rourkela and NIT Durgapur have good CSE programs too. I received some good reviews about the CSE program at IIIT Siri City as well from my friends at the institute. But it will take time for Siri City to reach the same level as IIIT Hyderabad and IIIT Allahabad.

Which is better Harvard business school or ISB Hyderabad?

GK
Gagan Kumar Posted On : March 2nd, 2021
MBA Finance & Marketing, Indian School of Business (2008)

There is definitely no comparison between the two. Harvard Business School is definitely better than ISB. When it comes to Global MBA rankings, ISB ranks 98th in the world, and HBS ranks 2nd. You should not really compare B schools as each one of them has something unique to offer and have transitions in their programs.

You will notice that both colleges are quite different on the basis of their campus, program quality as well as syllabus, culture, faculty, employment rate, and fee structure. While Harvard will top everything in this regard, ISB is known to have a good reputation as the top B school in India.

But, if you are planning on getting a job somewhere, my suggestion would be to go to the same college as the job location. Harvard definitely will get you the brand name, but if you are looking at settling in India, you will be well off getting your education from ISB.

Some of my friends have studied at both colleges and the institute has provided some of the finest MBA graduates in the world. They have gone on to perform really well in big organizations and have showcased amazing leadership qualities.

Additionally, you should know that you will have to provide a GMAT or GRE score for admission to either of these places. It is advisable not to give CAT and focus on GMAT instead. Especially if you end up applying to big firms or fortune 500 companies, they will definitely ask you for a GMAT score that will have to be a part of your resume.

Harvard also has a better placement package as compared to ISB. But, the fee structure is quite expensive so you will have to decide if that works for you. You can refer to the college website for more information if you would like. Look at your post-MBA goals and then make a choice.

Which college is better for CS, MIT Pune or VIT Pune?

TG
Tamoghno Ghose Posted On : April 4th, 2022
lives in Pune, Maharashtra, India

Among these institutes, VIT Pune is better for CS. Academics, infrastructure, exposure, placements, internships, etc. are better at VIT. 

Companies like Amazon, Cognizant, Infosys, TCS, Accenture, Nvidia, Tata Power, Atlas Copco, etc. are some of the major recruiters that frequently visit the campus placements. In the last semester, there is a compulsory 6-month internship module at VIT. This helps a lot with placements. According to trends of the last few years, VIT Pune CSE average package is INR 6.34 LPA. During 2021 placements, the highest CTC offered was INR 33.75 LPA.

SM
Sahil Metha Posted On : June 24th, 2024
Studied MBA at IIT Roorkee (Graduated 2021)

College wise - IIT Roorkee > IIM Bodh Gaya > IIM Amritsar

I will chose IIT Roorkee due to the following reasons:-

  • Older IITs like Roorkee boast a longer legacy and are highly esteemed for imparting quality Management education. 
  • MBA started at IIT Roorkee in 1998 while both the IIM were established in 2015.
  • IIT Roorkee has better infrastructure and has a bigger campus of 358.5 acres.

Which UPTU college to choose for a B.Tech CS/IT course: NIET Greater Noida, GL BAJAJ Greater Noida or IMS Engineering College Ghaziabad?

PT
Pragya Tripathi Posted On : March 2nd, 2023
M.C.A from Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University (Graduated 2013)

The choice of UPTU college for a B.Tech CS/IT course depends entirely on your priorities and preferences. Consider factors such as your preferred location, cost of living, city culture, security, placement opportunities, and most importantly, the quality of education offered by the college.

While the quality of education may be a factor to consider, remember that ultimately, your success in college will depend on your own dedication and effort. The atmosphere and culture of a college can have an impact, but it is not the only determining factor in making a college the "best" choice for you.

Based on these considerations, we recommend that you consider IMS Engineering College as your first choice, followed by NIET, and lastly G.L Bajaj.

What are the drawbacks of doing MBBS from KGMU?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : September 26th, 2023
VMCC Delhi

Here are a few drawbacks of pursuing an MBBS from KGMU

  • KGMU does not have an academic environment and research culture at par with the Delhi colleges like JIPMER and CMC Vellore.
  • KGMU has a very rigid and rigorous curriculum sparing no time for students to do MCQ for PG while in most colleges, the classroom sessions are less so they have more time to indulge in MCQ. So most KGMU passouts are great doctors but are less practiced for the PG exam.

However, these cons can easily be overlooked considering the unending pros the institute has to offer.

Can I recover my marks after very bad mid semester examinations to get 8.5+ CGPA in Thapar University?

KG
Kriti Goyal Posted On : August 3rd, 2023
Studied at Thapar University (2019)

Yes, you can certainly recover your marks even after a few bad mid-semester exams at Thapar University. One midterm will not affect your overall grades so you can rest your worries. One of my friends scored a 6.3 in his first semester but passed out of college with an 8.74 aggregate GPA. Here are a few tips that might help:

  • Stop playing video games completely.
  • But some new stationery and find a good company that motivates you to study.
  • Make a well-structured timetable for studies and follow it religiously.
  • Attend at least 90% of classes and tutorials to minimize the duration of self-study sessions.

You don't have to worry about your poor marks in mid-semesters as you still have time to improve.

I was selected for M.Mgmt at IISc, Bangalore. Is it a good option?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : July 18th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Both institutes are premier institutes and offer excellent Ph.D. programs. Based on my sister's experience who did her internship at the Machine Intelligence unit in ISI Kolkata. The institute has world-renowned researchers in the field of machine learning who have INAE, IAS, and IEEE profiles. Here you will also find people doing top-quality research in computational biology and other fields. The research environment is friendly and the PhD students are quite approachable.

As for IISc, it is one of the leading research institutes in India. However, a PhD from IISc is very challenging and you need to invest a lot o time and effort in the same. Moreover, most of the professors in IISc are world-famous always busy will their personal research work, and have little time to guide the students. This lack of guidance will delay your Ph.D. 

Ultimately, it is up to you to decide which one to go for. Both institutes are top-notch and enjoy global recognition. It's best to contact the Ph.D. students of both institutes to get a better picture.

Is Calicut Medical College better than AIIMS Bhopal or Bhubaneswar?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : June 6th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

My cousin from Kerala was in a similar dilemma and had to choose between Calicut and AIIMS Jodhpur. Eventually, she went for AIIMS Jodhpur and stated a few reasons that encouraged her to take this decision.

  • Despite being good, Kerala colleges cannot match the standard of AIIMS which in itself is a brand.
  • AIIMS are in the development phase which means that they are only going to get better while the Kerala colleges are old and have stagnant growth.
  • Being old, Kerala colleges lack the modern hostel and sports facilities that are available in the new AIIMS. 
  • The internship period in government colleges is challenging leaving no time for PG preparation while AIIMS has a relaxing internship period giving students enough time to study during the night and evening.

All in all, my cousin was impressed by the hostel facilities of AIIMS Jodhpur and loved the fact that she would be getting a single room with an attached balcony and bathroom!
