IIT - The life you want, The life you need.

Course curriculum are the best when it comes to courses in IIT. Most of the time you may not get courses of your choice in your choice of IIT, which is due to your rank, a deciding factor in seat allocation. Although I am quite impressed with the curriculum of any course. There is always opportunity for both core and non core jobs.

Campus placements from IITs are the best. Some of the students get international packages in crores. 20LPA can be considered average. There are more than 1000 placement offers offered to the students. Student's in 4year BTech program sit for placements at the end of the 7th semester. Talking of highest package, 4.2Cr was offered by Quantbox to quant analyst. Other companies like De Shaw offer around 60Lpa. My plan is to get placed in one of the high paying company as a ML engineer. I am expecting somewhere between 50 to 60Lpa. At least 90percent students are placed on campus rest apply for off campus placements in search of more high package and few opt for UPSC.

Fees in IITs are around 2.8Lakhs per year for candidates whose family annual income is more than 5 Lakhs. If your family income is between 1 to 5 Lakhs then you get 2-3rd off on your tution fee which is aroud 2 Lakhs annual or 1Lakh per semester. Also if family annual income is less than 1Lakhs then you get complete tution fee waiver. Also SC ST students get complete tution fee waiver. On some cases you get waiver on mess fees too. There are other scholarships available too if you score decent.

IITs are the most prestigious college in India. You get admission to IITs through entrance examination which include JEE mains and then JEE advanced (if qualified Mains). All the students who passed 12th are eligible for JEE. You can find the application form in the NTA website. Application fees is around INR600 for general candidates in JEE Mains. There are certain reservation benefits too. Once you qualify JEE Mains you can apply for Advanced. JEE mains can be given twice a year. It is held in the month of January and April. You get only one opportunity for Advanced in the month of May. Cut-off for Mains can somewhere around 90percentile. It keeps changing depending on the difficulty of the paper. For advanced there is both individual cutoff and overall cut-off, which again changes every year. But, 11marks can be considered for the individual cutoff. JEE advanced is considered one of the most difficult exams held in India. There is two papers organised for advanced each of 180.
