IIT Bombay Review

Who does not want an opportunity to complete an engineering degree from an IIT? During my B.Tech program I decided to pursue M.Tech from an IIT and I worked very hard in my academics and started to prepare for GATE from 2nd year so that I can secure a good percentage to secure a seat in top IITs of India. My hard work paid me I secured 81% in my academics and my GATE score was between 400 to 520. I was looking for the college as per my score and I found that I am able to clear the cutoff criteria of IIT Bombay and without wasting a single moment I applied for COAP counselling and I was able to get a seat in IIT Bombay. Which was like a dream come true for me. IIT Bombay is ranked 3rd in engineering college in India. I was obliged to be part of such a prestigious college of India.
