How can I score well in IGNOU, M.A. English course?

MD
Mahesh Desai Posted On : October 21st, 2022
BA in Economics, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) (Graduated - 2014)

When it comes to study material, IGNOU definitely provides the best. The course is lucid, well-written, and informative and contains a summary of all important details. The quality of the study material makes it possible for you to solely rely on it and give exams. 

But if you are aiming for some brownie points, then there is an additional tip for you. Download MA English question papers of the past 5 years. Going through these papers will instil in you a confidence and general picture of the paper. You will also discover the important questions that are repeated almost every year and can focus more on those questions. Basically, this method will enable you to approach your exam a bit more confidently and well-prepared.

Which college is better for an MBBS: the MAMC or VMMC?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : September 25th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Usually MAMC is the first choice of aspirants. But, a good number of students choose VMMC over MAMC despite getting really high ranks, and having a Delhi state quota. The reasons for this decision are-

  1. VMMC is much newer than MAMC, UCMS and LHMC. Thus, it offers a modern and fully air-conditioned infrastructure.
  2. Workload for the first 1-2 years is much lighter.
  3. There are only semester-end exams. Despite this, the education quality is top notch. 
  4. VMMC offers the benefits of an internal PG quota.
  5. The batch strength is smaller. This facilitates better interaction with peers and professors.
  6. Safdarjung Hospital has the largest OPD in Asia with a dedicated Specialized Burns Unit. So you’ll get more opportunities to learn during postings and internship. There is an entirely separate Sports Injury Centre as well. 
  7. The hostels are air conditioned, and the girls' hostel has no curfew. The library reading room remains open 24*7. 
  8. VMMC is located in the heart of South Delhi. The best hangout spots like HKV, Dilli Haat, Promenade are all located at a close distance. SN market and South Ex are just 5 minute drive away.

Thus, I would recommend you choose VMMC for your MBBS degree.

How is it that IIIT Bangalore has much better placements than the CSE department of most of the top 10 NITs and still the cutoff is 8500? I mean it has a median salary of 15.9LPA then why so?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : October 10th, 2023
IIIT Bangalore

First, let us discuss some reasons for the high placement records of IIIT Bangalore CSE department-

  1. IIIT Bangalore does not believe in the system of mugging before an exam and filling out the answer sheets.
  2. The curriculum is updated every few years, and assignments and projects are an important part of all courses.
  3. Unlike the NITs, IIITB won’t make you study irrelevant subjects in your first year. You’ll study only the subjects relevant to your CSE degree from the beginning itself.
  4. You’ll learn basic CS in the first few semesters. The rest of the semesters will be utilized in teaching you advanced topics like ML, AI, CV, NLP, etc.

Now the reasons for low cutoffs, despite high placements are-

  1. It is a public-private co-owned college. This is why its fees are much higher in comparison to NITs. 
  2. The admissions are completely merit-based. This increases the availability of seats. 
  3. There can be a huge rank difference between the second last admission, and the last admission. So one should not judge the merit of a college based on its cutoff ranks.
  4. IIITs are comparatively new in this race. Even then, they are growing at a tremendous speed. 
  5. IIITB offers limited courses. It offers iM.Tech instead of B.Tech. 

These are the reasons why iM.Tech CSE cutoffs are so low at IIIT Bangalore, while their placement records are better than even top NITs.

Which college is better for an MCh Neurosurgery: AIIMS Delhi or NIMHANS?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : June 1st, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Both AIIMS and NIMHANS have been excellent institutes for neurosurgery. Both the institutes have their unique strengths and weaknesses. It’s better to weigh the pros and cons before coming to a final decision.

AIIMS Delhi

  • AIIMS has given birth to elite neurosurgeons and enjoys a great level of credibility and global recognition. 
  • The neurosurgery department has top-notch infrastructure and all the modern facilities you could ask for. 
  • There is a dedicated trauma center, in addition to cadaveric training and research facility, neurosurgical education and training school, and an animal dissection lab.

NIMHANS

  • NIMHANS is a dedicated mental health and neurosciences institute.
  • It has an NBRC - neurobiology research center which provides necessary resources for research and technology advancement.

Both AIIMS Delhi and NIMHANS are equally good in terms of the amount of work, patient management protocol, and infrastructure. The only issue at AIIMS Delhi is the increasing staff as a result of which the surgical work gets divided and residents get less work. NIMHANS on the other hand has a lesser faculty count which does not necessarily mean more work. 

Ultimately, it’s your performance that determines your success and not your institute. Institute just lays down the stepping stones for your future.
