What did you learn from campus placements experience at NSIT??
Here are some important things I learned from the campus placements at NSUT Delhi-
- It’s a harsh reality but luck plays a huge role in placements. Sometimes it will shock you how people with no potential at all get offered great job opportunities.
- Confidence and patience are really important during placements.
- You need to prepare well to get placed. By sitting for various companies too, you will get a lot of experience and exposure on the do’s and don'ts.
- Placement season is the best and worst time of your college life. This is when you get to know the difference between fake and real friends.
- Learn to be satisfied with the job that you end up in. It is your grades, caliber, and level of preparation that have brought you here. A comparison with others is of no use.
- Sometimes people become rude after getting placed in a top company for a good package. Learn to ignore them and remain calm.
- Only you know your hard work, worth and potential. Don’t let others talk you down with rude words.
- Some of your close friends may not get a good placement. This is the time when you support them.
- Utilize your time after placements. Get productive, don’t be lazy.
These experiences aren’t just limited to the placement season of NSUT Delhi, they are common for all the colleges/ universities.
I want to pursue a master's in economics. Which one should I choose: Delhi School of Economics, JNU, Indian Statistical Institute, Paris-Sorbonne University or University of Munich?

Some of my friends attend IISER Kolkata and here are some snippets from their experiences.
- The academics at the institute is great. The faculty base is great. Especially for DMS (Department of Mathematics and Statistics), and DPS (Department of Physical Sciences). The professors teach in a sophisticated and rigorous manner. It’s not unusual to see professors performing scientific experiments in front of the whole class to demonstrate a scientific concept.
- The academic structure is designed to support undergraduate research. Tutorials are fun but it depends on your TA.
- You will also get to attend lectures by world-renowned scientists right from your first year.
- The student crowd is great. You will get to meet some of the smartest minds in the country on campus. Most students go on to pursue research in various fields, later.

How do I prepare for the NPAT (NMIMS)?
National Test for Programs After Twelfth (NPAT) as the name suggests is an entrance test conducted by NMIMS to admit students to its various undergraduate and integrated programs. It is a 100-minute Computer Based Test (CBT) consisting of three sections; Quantitative and Numerical Ability, Reasoning and General Intelligence, and Proficiency in English Language. To prepare for the tests you may follow some of the following points.
- Complete your syllabus by the end of December and start giving mock tests next.
- Thoroughly analyze them to understand your strengths and weaknesses.
- For the Quantitative and the Reasoning sections speed is a key factor. So practice some shortcuts along the way as well.
- For English, make a habit of reading newspapers daily to improve your language knowledge and vocabulary.
- In Reasoning section, they sometimes ask logical puzzles. So practice 5-10 problems each day from Youtube.
- You may also solve some previous year’s question papers to understand the pattern.
- Mind games such as Sudoku, Crossword Puzzles will also help you crack reasoning questions faster.
Now as I see it, all the sections are fairly easy to crack with a little effort. You may also use YouTube for learning concepts. If you wish you could join some crash courses as well. Arihant’s DU JAT-BMS books are great for clearing concepts.
