True reality!!

The faculty-student ratio depends on the department to department My department has a batch strength of 70 students whereas electrical peeps have a strength of 190 The faculty here are highly qualified. Almost all have done PhD in respective fields that too from colleges around the world and are ready to help you out if u ask for it. We have our exams namely quizzes, mid sem and ends It all happens within 4 months Exams are not difficult to pass but its really difficult to get a good grade because the competition here is massive. Also, you must be looking at your friends who are from let's say tier 2 college, they study just one or two days before the exams and gets result but there is nothing as such.

Being a student of IIT Kanpur, I can tell what exactly is the condition of placement and internship in our college which is not at all what it seems from the outside. This year many intern companies including jg morgan, Stanlee, quant, tcs visited and asked for skills in coding, consulting, finance & analytics.

Students become eligible for placement at the start of 4th yr after 6th semester though they would have to join the company at the end of 4th year. There are around 230 companies visited this yr and almost 90% of the total students got placed. So the highest package was 4.3 crore which is the highest ever in all IITs. The average package was around 20 lakhs. My plan is to join a consulting company and look for a future there. Though I am exploring more and I can change it if I find some other field more interesting.

The fee policy at IIT Kanpur is as simple as the fee policy in any other Government Institution in India. Students with SC/ST will be getting a full academic fee waiver and other students get fee waivers based on parental income. Students with no waiver have to pay around 130000 per semester. I didn't get any scholarships or financial assistance as I am in my first year and do not belong to the criteria to avail of benefits.

The annual fest of IIT Kanpur is Antaragni which is also one of Asia's largest technical fest Techkriti and both are conducted in the month of march. Basically in the library, we have academics-oriented books that are large in number. Nearly 10k books are there which is also the largest among all IITs We have AC in our classes and staircase seats are there which also makes the board seems visible We have a projector which projects on a large screen. There are facilities for as many sports as possible. We have been provided with coaches for respective games. Seniors help alot which makes it easy for some people who are starting fresh. In extracurricular as well have had every thing possible and seniors teach u so well that if you are starting from scratch also, you won't face problems. All the groups, clubs, website, ig as well as fest, everything is run by students.

We as a first-year have got two seater room. Our room has a fan, a few charging points, a huge Almira, a mirror, two beds, three chairs, two tables and a notice board. Meal quality is better than expected, one problem about the menu is it doesn't change so we often get bored with it. We have breakfast lunch and dinner. It's compulsory for every individual to live in the campus hostel and affordability-wise, it is quite affordable. 1-year hostel fee is around 25k so I would say it's better than many more colleges.

The admission process was straight and simple. You have to qualify entrance test to jee main followed by jee advance . Eligibility to appear in jee main is either you will be giving your 12th boards exam the same year or you had given it a year before . Eligibility to appear in jee advance is you should be among the top 250000 students in jee main. As NTA conducts jee main, you will find the application form on NTA official website and I am from obc-ncl category and I took reservation benefits to get a better branch in a better college at my rank. As jee main exam is conducted all over India at a high level, it is the responsibility of the agency to conduct exams smoothly so that no student underperforms because of an issue of yours.
