IITD as I experienced

Chemical engineering is one of the most sought after courses in the world and one of the hardest to study. The curriculum is well structured with common courses in the first year and start of chemical engineering courses from the second year. Enough options of electives and interdisciplinary courses to choose from and build your know-how according to your interest. Exams are held twice every semester and the difficulty level is generally hard.

Internships are offered through placement committee in the summer of your third year. The companies range from consulting to software, startups and core branch related. These typically last for 2-3 months and are a mandatory part of your college experience

Placements happen at the end of 7th semester. Few companies that visit include MBB, Microsoft, Google, HFTs, and a range of startups. Offers made are upwards of 500. Highesh package can go upto 1 CR (primarily US based) and average would be around 15 LPA.

The base tuition fees itself is not as high as compared to other colleges. Good amount of scholarships are available based on merit-and means that can waive off tuition fee completely. The total cost of education for 4 years can range from 2-3L to 10+ lacs depending on scholarships and category. A scholarship to look out for is MCM, there are other numerous options as well which are floated every year

I had a great time at college. You have 13+ cultural clubs to choose from, a multitude of sports, both indoor and outdoor. You have great access to library, computer centers, audiotriums, etc. IITD boasts 3 major grounds including athletic, cricket and a football ground.

Hostels are a bit old but there are new ones built recently which are pretty good with just a little higher fees. Mess food is okayish and good to eat regularly. Hostels are incredibly affordable with approx 25k for a semester including everything.

You have to pass the JEE- Advanced examination with a great rank mine was 1599 (General). You can apply for jee examination from their website, as and when the forms open. Since IITD is a government college, you would get reservation benefits as applicable according to your category. JEE is obviously a hard exam and you have to prepare well for it. Admission process should also consider student's profile apart from JEE score only

Good faculty to student ratio of 1:8. Faculty's from diverse backgrounds, ivy league schools and excellent research experience. Teachers are approachable and help you out when you express your intent and work hard. Some faculties might be too strict about class/course rules.
