Remarks
I had applied for COEP Pune GECA Aurangabad VJIT Mumbai for all the courses but was not selected for them because I had fewer marks in CET 2017. I got MGM JNEC on the first merit list in Mechanical Engineering. I had no quota for the admission I belong to General Category. Criteria were 50% in PCM in 12 standard and valid scores in CET and JEE. I had 106 marks in MH CET and 37 in JEE Mains. I was eligible for the MH CET exam. I got admission in the first merit list. My rank was 10 in the list. There was no age barrier in the admission to the college. Admission was a hectic job. We had to verify all the documents from ARC center and then upload them online and then go ahead on the site. Then we were allowed the colleges we were eligible for the colleges. We had an option for float and freeze. But I froze it. Then we had to verify documents at the college along with fees (86000) further 5000 was refunded. There was no admission counseling from the college. I had to research on my own.
Course Curriculum Overview
I was good in Physics and Maths, so I thought Mechanical Engineering will help me in my career growth. Also, it is an evergreen branch in the industry. It is considered the core branch of Engineering. Faculty to student ratio was 1:30 or the same as that. The faculty were highly qualified and they had industry experience. but the teaching method was old and we didn't found interesting in the college expect a few of them. They used to take Class Assessment and MId term for internal assessment and it was really easy to pass in the final semester exam. Most of them used to score 90+ in internals and they easily passed the end semester exam without any difficulty. The term exams were timely scheduled within 4/5 months and it was really to pass those end semester exams. Even if you score 40/40 in internal exams, you passed that subject in the year. So it was really easy to pass. Also, there were internships and mini projects in the college time to get acquainted
Internships Opportunities
Internships- we used to find our own companies and most of them were unpaid. College provided some companies with unpaid. 2 got placed in SKODA. Projects - Final Year project was given but due to covid, it is still pending. My project was a solar panel using arduino.
Placement Experience
Students are eligible from the 7th semester for campus placements. Companies like TCS, Capgemini, Cognizant, Grind Master, BKT Tyres and BR Electrosystems, Skoda. Till now 15/20 students from Mech are placed in the campus. The average package is 2.5L and offers are made for the graduate trainee. highest package is 7L for coding. 10/15% got placed so far. My plan is to pursue MBA from a top B school in India and to start my own business later.
Fees and Financial Aid
Fees was increased for the next batches but for us, it was same for all the four years. We had the fees of 81000 and the next batch was more than 90000. Cost to study was about 4L-5L. Scholarships were provided like EBC and SC ST OBC scholarships, in which we got fees waived till 50% of the fees.
Campus Life
The campus was really nice to study in. It was green and huge with a lot of facilities like a pool, sports ground, library, and canteens. All the books were available in the library. Classrooms were digital. It used a projector in the class. There were many clubs for extra curricular activities on the campus like NSS, Dance, Coding, Arts, Sports. Mostly all the clubs were run by students but the teacher used to head them.
