Studied at Delhi Technological university

Life at DTU is magical and surreal. It’s a rare experience and once you leave the college it will dawn on you how precious your time spent here was. The students live a carefree life here and pursue their passion alongside academics. DTU has given birth to many artists, musicians, singers, orators, dancers, writers, programmers, and athletes. Those who claim DTU students are bookworms have it wrong, as all kinds of talents are cultivated here.

To break the periodical monotony of campus life, frequent fests are held that are enough to increase the spirit tenfold. Engifest is one of the most awaited events in Delhi. The night events are vibrant and the students have the best days of their life during this fest. Another great event is the Literary Fest wherein you will be meeting well-reputed people in poetry, writing, and whatnot.

DTU even organized the Tomatina Fest in the form of a Color Run. You can explore the campus and find many eateries serving delicious food. The main canteen serves the tastiest samosas you have ever eaten while the Mic-mac canteen serves non-veg and Paranthas.

As for the academic life, it’s not very rigorous like other colleges. You can survive by doing self-study during exams. You will also enjoy the happening nightlife here.

What CAT percentile do I require to get calls from IIM Blackis, FMS, SP Jain, JBIMS and MDI Gurgaon?

AD
Anuraag Das Posted On : April 14th, 2023
Studied at MBA from NMIMS (2020)

For GEM, the CAT percentiles required to get an interview call from IIM Blackis, FMS, SP Jain, JBIMS, and MDI Gurgaon are 

  • ABC and FMS: Both institutes required nothing less than 99.5. Those who get admission at a lesser percentile, usually don’t belong to the GEM category. There are many who don’t even get a call with 99.3. So to stay on the safer side, go for nothing less than 99.5.
  • IIM Indore and Kozhikode: Both the institutes require percentiles around 97.5 for an interview call
  • SPJIMR: This Institute has unique selection criteria under which CAT is given less value and calls are issued on the basis of the candidate's profile. The CAT percentile required in this case is less than the normal if you have a good academic profile along with work experience,
  • MDI: This institute issues calls around the 96% mark.

It’s important to know that these figures are based on trends and not on actual data so you will find exceptions everywhere. Moreover, it’s better you don’t waste time analyzing the CAT cutoff and start preparing for the same.

What are some of the worst Delhi University colleges?

RC
Ritesh Choudhary Posted On : May 3rd, 2026

some of the lower-ranked or less-preferred Delhi University colleges — to answer honestly:

DU has 90+ affiliated colleges varying widely in quality. some less prestigious ones (in terms of rankings, faculty, placements) include:

  • Colleges in east/outer Delhi: some government colleges in Shahdara, Seelampur area have lower rankings
  • Some evening colleges and correspondence colleges associated with DU have less campus resources
  • Certain newer affiliated colleges that lack established infrastructure

however, 'worst' is relative. even lower-ranked DU colleges have the DU degree and CUET-based admission, which carries weight. the bigger issue is infrastructure and faculty quality varies significantly.

the key insight: for DU BA/BCom/BSc programs, the college name matters less than you think for most careers. the DU degree itself is recognized. focus on your performance, internships, and skills rather than which DU college — unless applying to highly brand-conscious employers where the top DU colleges (Stephen's, Hindu, SRCC, Lady Shri Ram) have specific alumni networks.

  • Read in-between the lines
  • Use one reference book or one coaching module. In case you find any topic difficult, refer to the reference book or coaching module
  • Practice your speed 
  • You need to have a good command of the language in which you will be giving your exam. This will enable you to understand what the question demands from you
  • If you have 6 months for your preparation, use 5 months to study, and the remaining one month to revise and practice mock tests
  • Take as many mock tests as you can to clear your exam with the required rank. Take at least 10 mock tests.
  • If your memorizing skills are good, give more time to Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, and Physics 
  • If your logical skills are good, give more priority to Biology and Inorganic Chemistry
  • Refer to your Physics manual and, for problems, practice using D.C. Pandey and for theory refer to H.C. Verma

Why is NIT Agartala so underrated?

PS
Prerona Sarkar Posted On : September 18th, 2023
B.Tech in EE from National Institute of Technology, Agartala (2018)

Upon joining NIT Agartala, I had a completely different experience from what I expected-

  • Accessibility- NIT Agartala is easily accessible. There are flights to Tripura, with discount rates too. There is also a direct train from Tripura to New Delhi. You won’t face any connectivity issues.
  • Mess food- The food is very good over there. Contrary to popular belief, you won’t face any problems regarding the food served.
  • Location- Tripura is a very peaceful state, and the campus offers a nurturing environment.
  • Surroundings- You’ll get fresh air, lots of open space, and good weather conditions at NIT Agartala.
  • Infrastructure- The college infrastructure is at par with top IITs and NITs. The hostels are filled with all facilities. Aryabhatta Hostel and Rabindranath Tagore Hostel are top-notch in terms of infrastructure.
  • Innovation Incubation Centre- ISRO built an innovation incubation centre at NIT Agartala. This has given the students an opportunity to work with the world’s leading space agency.
  • Equipment- The college has advanced equipment like EM, AFM, SEM, FESEM, XRD, Supercomputer, etc. It is difficult to access such machines, even at top institutions like BARC Mumbai and IIT Delhi.

NIT Agartala is probably underrated because people assume that its location and eating habits are very different. It is assumed that Tripura is inaccessible, and suffers communal riots. But all of these assumptions are baseless. 

NIT Agartala is a really good engineering college. It deserves much more praise and recognition. I owe all my success to this wonderful institution.

  • Students are selected based on their overall profile, including SOP, Resume, credit work, academic transcripts, work experience, entrance test scores, and more.

There are two major Universities in Germany where GATE scores are valid and can be submitted to enhance your profile.

  • Known to be one of the leading universities in Germany, TUM accepts GATE scores and require Indian students to additionally provide relevant IELTS or TOEFL scores along with it.

  • Students can apply for master’s programs in the faculty of Civil Engineering and Survey, Mechanical Engineering, Information Technology, and Electrical Engineering with a valid GATE score.

  • Apart from having good scores in GATE and TOEFL, students are also required to have relevant scores in a BTech degree in order to be considered for admissions at TUM.

  • The application process at the institute for the September semester begins in January.

RWTH Aachen University:

  • The university offers degrees in collaboration with the Imperial School of London and offers admissions for Master’s programs based on relevant IELTS/TOEFL and GATE scores.

  • The main faculties that accept GATE scores are Biomedical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Information Technology, Geophysics, Computer Engineering, and Automotive Engineering.
