Which one is better St Joseph College Trichy Madras Christian College Chennai or PSG Arts and Science College Coimbatore?

RB
Ria Bera Posted On : October 25th, 2021
studied B.Sc. Maths from St. Joseph's College, Trichy (2016)

One of my friends studied at SJC College Trichy. He completed his Post Graduation in Botany from this college. He is still proud of his time as a student at SJC. Here are some facts about the college you should know.

  • In the entire state of Tamil Nadu, there were just five colleges that offered a PG course in Botany. Among these colleges, SJC college was the first to offer a postgraduate course in Botany. 
  • The facilities and resources made available to the students were extraordinary. 
  • The PG department had an exclusively specialized Botany library, in addition to the extraordinarily well-equipped College Central Library. 
  • The laboratories were well-equipped and the campus had a huge Herbarium with a fantastic collection of plants. 
  • The college's admissions procedure was open and transparent, with just merit as a criterion. 
  • They have such excellent professors. They supervised every student in addition to teaching the course curriculum. 
  • There were no on-campus recruitments. Despite this, every student who passed was offered a job. 

Most of my friend’s classmates became teachers, and they are doing well. The students absorbed not only knowledge but also values. He still recalls and adores his professors because he feels he owes them a debt of gratitude.

Is IIEST Shibpur better than the NITs and new IITs?

AB
Arnab Biswas Posted On : April 12th, 2021
Btech from Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2018)

One of my friends missed IIT by a few marks and that left him devastated. Nonetheless, his experience at the institute was quite good. Here are some snippets from his duration at the institute. 

After a few months at the institute, he made some great friends and he started enjoying college life. After 1 academic year, he started working in events, attended some workshops, got sponsors for tech fest, learned so much about so many different things. That gave him the courage to support his friend's plan for a TEDx event at the college. He's one of the guys who started a TEDx legacy in this 160-year-old Institution of Higher Learning. 

One of the reasons why he chose to stay at the institute as a junior, is the vast alumni network. Every corner of the globe IIEST is the one to hold top managerial positions in various industries. The college got a donation of over 350 crores for a research Hospital by an alumnus. It’s true once IIEST was amongst the best 5 in our country until politics in West Bengal destroyed their legacy.

IIEST has the zeal to keep the Bengal Engineering College at the top. NIRF-MHRD 2020 ranked IIEST Shibpur 21, but visit the college and witness why the students who pass out from this Institute somehow end up being the best in their fields.

Do colleges in Mumbai such asSPIT, KJ Somaiya and DJ Sanghavi have management quota?

SK
Shailesh Kothari Posted On : December 26th, 2022
Studied at K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering

All the 3 colleges you mentioned admit students through the central admission process (CAP) rounds which are undertaken by the Directorate of Technical Education, Maharashtra (DTE). 

The admission process through cap rounds is always based on merit. If there are seats vacant after the 3 cap rounds, then colleges may admit the students through the management quota.

Management quota is not applicable before the end of round 3

The major drawback is that by the end of round 3, mostly all the seats of the reputed branches are taken. So I won’t recommend you wait till the end of 3rd round unless you are planning to pursue chemical or production engineering.

Sri Guru Nanak Dev Khalsa College was established as Sri Guru Teg Bahadur Khalsa Post-graduate (Evening) College. Later, it was made into a morning college. According to the reviews online, it is a really good college.

  • It is well known that it has a very small campus but is a lively one. 
  • The professors are very kind and polite. You can approach them with any of your questions but the same is not the case with the administrative people.

What should I choose between LHMC, UCMS, and RML?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : October 5th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

The best college for you depends on your priorities and goals. First, you need to figure out what exactly you are expecting from your degree and college. My sister had similar options as yours and she was looking for a safe location and easy commute, offering decent social life and good societies. She analyzed the pros and cons of each of these colleges and even contacted the seniors of these colleges. Here is what she derived regarding each college

  • LHMC: The institute is famous for its prime location, brand name, and its safe all-girls environment. Its infrastructure has been renovated recently and its DU tag is very helpful. However, the patient load is less compared to other teaching hospitals in Delhi and if you live close by, you won't be given a hostel room either.
  • UCMS: Being a co-ed college, it offers better exposure, hostel facilities, infrastructure, and an amazing patient load. This college too is under the DU and has some amazing societies and fests. However, its primary drawback is its location which is often considered unsafe, especially for girls.
  • RML: Thistoo is co-ed and has a good location. It is considered to be the best medical college in Delhi after AIIMS and VMMC. Its IPU quota and newly established infrastructure are what sets it apart from the other two colleges. However, being new, it may be lacking in terms of reputation, alumni, and quality of fests. 

The academics are almost similar in these 3 colleges, so consider other pros and cons and make a wise choice.
