Why is everyone advising to choose the NIT over the BITS Pilani (Goa campus also included)? Is the BITS Pilani computer science at least as good as a new generation IIT?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : June 28th, 2023
BITS(Goa)

Don't pay heed to the ones advising you to choose NITs over BITS Pilani because no matter how good even the best NIT Trichy is, it can never reach the level of globally recognized BITS Pilani. BITS Pilani is second only to the 5 old IITs and every other technical institute in India comes after it. 

The usual preference order is

IIT Bombay>IIT Delh>IIT Madras>IIT Kanpur>IIT Kharagpur>BITS>IIT Roorkee>IIT Varanasi>IIT Guwahati>NIT Trichy>NIT Surathkal>NIT Warangal

It's very important to evaluate a college's worth and credibility based on relevant factors. Here are a few aspects you should take into consideration while making the decision. 

  • Faculty and Pedagogy
  • Infrastructure
  • Labs
  • Library
  • Academic rigor and facility
  • Placements
  • Student body
  • Fests and clubs
  • Hostel and campus facilities
  • Mess food

Ultimately, it's up to you to prioritize one factor over the other and make a well-formed decision based on the research you have done.

How do I get a transcript from PTU Jalandhar?

RS
Rishabh Singh Posted On : March 1st, 2024
Lives in banglore

My sister applied online for her transcripts, a few years back. According to her, you need to visit the PTU support website, sign up, and fill in your details. After that, you need to click on ‘Add query’ to apply for your transcripts. Next, you need to upload your DMCs in PDF format, along with an ID proof. Next, you need to mention the address where you want those transcripts to be delivered. After that, you’ll be taken to the payments section where you’ll have to pay Rs. 300 per transcript + Rs. 100 for postage within Punjab, or Rs. 200 for postage outside Punjab/India. 

My sister had received her transcripts a month and a half later. The charges may have increased a bit over the years. You’ll figure it out upon signing up.

SS
Samriddha Saha, Posted On : November 11th, 2021
MBBS from Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi (2025)

It is suggested that you go for IMS BHU over KGMU Lucknow. Here are some reasons to support this statement.

  • IMS BHU is a central institution, while KGMU is under the State Government.
  • It has only 100 students while KGMU has 250 students. The competition is balanced when there are lesser students.
  • It has an internal PG reservation (50%) while KGMU has a State reservation (50%).
  • IMS BHU being central offers more Stipend (INR 23,500) as compared to KGMU (INR 7500).
  • If you prefer western culture you will like Lucknow more than Varanasi. Though this varies among everyone.
  • KGMU has a rural service bond of 2 years for UG which is the major drawback. However, it has a better-maintained campus than IMS BHU.

Overall it can be said that both are brilliant in academics. The campus should not matter much. As these choices could vary from person to person. So choose based on your priorities.
