Remarks
I applied to VIT Chennai, Manipal, SRM, Pondicherry University, IIIT Pune, IIIT Bhubaneswar- Chose BIT Mesra, Deoghar for its good brand image and proximity to home. No quota availed The minimum rank in JEE Main is 2L, and the age is 17. It was okay, the mark sheets were collected and verified and hostels were shown.
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose Electronics because that was the next best course after Computer Science for placements, and I was not too fond of programming so didn't go for CSE. 1:10. All faculties are at least MTech. Most of them are PhD. The teaching method is good. But mostly stick to the syllabus. BIT Mesra exams are hard to pass. You need to have a C or above to pass a course. There were 2 semesters a year, and a mid-semester and an end-semester per semester. The grading system is absolute, and not relative.
