What are the cons and pros of doing an undergraduate degree from IGNOU?
In education, the university does not matter more than your performance and marks. You might have graduated from IIT but your scores might be average. Similarly, you might have graduated from IGNOU and scored much more marks. Your degree from IGNOU can never be a negative aspect in your resume.
PROS:
-
Saves your time.
-
Allows you to multitask- you can do a job along with studying.
-
You can take exams from any place in India
CONS:
-
You will definitely miss your college days.
-
You might miss fests and other extracurricular activities.
You can continue to prepare for further exams alongside doing BA from IGNOU. There are several examples where people cracked UPSC at the age of 22 with just a degree from IGNOU without any coaching. One such example is Keshavendra Kumar IAS from Bihar. So yes, it’s a tough but probable choice you need to make.
How difficult is the AI course from IISc Bangalore for a graduate from Computer Science?
Well to be very honest, the AI course from IISv Bangalore is quite challenging for a graduate from CS. The course revolves around mathematical concepts. The fast-paced and rigorous curriculum makes it difficult to identify your weaknesses and work on them. Let me clarify the point that this scenario is not just in the case of IISc but AI in general is a field all about Math. It’s specially designed for those who are genuinely interested in this field.
The best part about this course is the Data Structure and Algorithm subject, a compulsory subject. Here are a few pros and cons of this program that will give you a general idea
Pros
- IISc has some of the highest qualified professors who deliver such interesting lectures that you will start falling in love with the course. Their arguments of proof are very interesting and can be.
- You will be interacting and having healthy discussions with geniuses from all over the country.
Cons
- Sometimes you will find the lectures uninteresting and even fail to connect the dots of what is being taught.
- There will be times when you will start regretting your decision if taking this course instead of CSA.
In reality, the course in itself isn’t flawed but our mid-sets are. These top institutes actually challenge our way of thinking which initially seems challenging but you later realize that it made you stand out in the crowd. The future prospects are great and trust me if you maintain a good CGPA, you will be placed exceptionally well.

How do you feel an Integrated MSc course from NIT Surat (SVNIT) is?
An integrated MSc. from SVNIT will be beneficial for your future as NITs are the second most revered engineering colleges in our country. Chasing one’s dream is a good idea, but one must also be aware of our future prospects. SVNIT is a good choice in terms of placements.
Some of my friends who graduated from SVNIT know of their batchmates who received job offers of around 30 LPA from foreign recruiters. Even Indian organizations pay SVNIT graduates handsomely, but the foreign offers are higher.
Ultimately, it is you who has to make the most of the available opportunities. Thus, I would recommend you join SVNIT for an integrated MSc.
When my term-end examination will take place as I enrolled in MEG 1 IGNOU in the month of July?
Every year, IGNOU holds its TEE (Term End Examinations) in June and December.
The practical and theoretical parts of the same course must be mentioned separately in the exam form, and the fees are also separate for both. The exam fee for both theory and practical courses/papers is currently 60/- rupees.
Typically, a grace period of 10-20 days is also allowed for the submission of examination forms, with a Late Fee of around 1000/- rupees as of now. The exact end date of the grace period as well as the late fee amount are communicated separately.
If the previous examination's results have not been declared, you should include those courses in the exam form. You may also be exempt from paying the exam fee for such courses. At the time of exam form submission, confirm this with the respective study center. Please keep in mind that the assignment portion of the respective courses must be completed before submitting the exam, or your hall ticket for the examination may be withheld. You are considered an Eligible Candidate once you register for a course and complete the semester/year allotted to that course.
Once you are eligible, you can take the exam in any subsequent TEE (June or December). You can still appear in both TEEs if your course is year-based rather than semester-based. This is a major source of confusion for students enrolled in annual programs.
You may reappear for a paper as many times as necessary to pass it (mind the maximum program duration, however). If the previous examination result was not declared or if you did not receive at least 40% pass marks, you should reappear.
You cannot reappear for that course TEE once you have received the minimum required marks (typically 40%). You must complete ALL courses within the maximum time frame for the Program.
What are the college timings for an MMS course at JBIMS and Sydenham?
Any typical day at JBIMS depends on your workload and the ongoing semester. The duration of lectures is 3 hours with a small break. The lectures take place in the following shifts
- 7 am-10 am
- 2 pm-5 pm
- 6:30 pm-9 pm
There might be one, two, or three lectures depending on your course. Another set of events that constitute a major part of your day is committee-related events like competitions. Apart from that you are always busy preparing for your presentations and assignments. Attending guest lectures is mandatory and no one can evade them.
The first semester is the busiest as it’s packed with induction, committee election, summer placements, and lectures. You won’t be able to sleep more than 4-5 hours a day and then soon adapt to the strenuous college life.
SASTRA University, Thanjavur: Does your CGPA really matter at the end of your course?
Yes, CGPA at SASTRA does matter, especially if you have low CGPA. It will affect your placement and as well as other things. But if you are proficient in programming then you can get into companies like Google without CGPA being a problem. If you have a low GPA, you will miss out on the following things.
- ACRS: If you want to finish your course in the 7th semester, you will need a GPA of 7.5+. To get the course you want you will need to have around an 8.5 GPA.
- Although most companies set 7.0 GPA requirements. Most dream companies ask for a GPA of 8+.
- You won’t be able to go to your graduation ceremony, since SASTRA only invites students with GPAs of 7.5+.
Apart from these above reasons, GPA matters for other reasons too. While hiring, companies look at your GPA, not to evaluate how much you know. Rather they want to how responsible and committed you are.
Which is a better option for a liberal undergraduate course FLAME or Ashoka University ?
For liberal undergraduate course, Ashoka University is a better choice. Ashoka University's course format is more flexible. Students can choose their major from a total of 21 per or interdisciplinary options. Ashoka University follows a rigorous pedagogy. The course structure will force you to become more creative.
FLAME offers more freedom in terms of artistic creativity. It’s easier to create and make art supported by the facilities offered at the campus itself.
Which is the best branch in VSSUT, Burla, Odisha?
for VSSUT Burla branch ranking from best to decent: CSE > IT > ETC > EEE > Mechanical > Chemical/Civil/Metallurgy
CSE and IT obvious picks for placements — TCS, Infosys, Amazon visit campus. highest package was Rs.47 LPA from Amazon SDE (ETC branch, 2023!). but here's what most people miss — ETC (Electronics & Telecom) is massively underrated at VSSUT. strong faculty, solid GATE scores come out of ETC, and both core + IT company placements are possible.
- placement-focused career: CSE > IT > ETC
- GATE / higher studies: EEE and ETC are excellent picks
- core jobs (PSU, manufacturing): Mechanical and Electrical fine but harder to crack
one thing to keep in mind — VSSUT is remote (Burla, near Hirakud Dam, Sambalpur). no big city nearby. hostel is decent but basic. mess food gets complaints. median package is Rs.6.38 LPA — for an Odisha state govt college the value is genuinely great, fees are super affordable. best pick in Odisha after NITs easily.
