Further the branch specific courses are pretty much well aligned and more well planned. My branch is chemical and we are learning about the process and the topics required.

The admission process is by clearing the JEE ADVANCED exam and then by going through JOSAA counselling. The cutoff for this exam was 109 marks in 360 marks. The overall admission process was so smooth.

The periodic tests account for 20% of the totals marks. The mid semesters exam accounts for 30%,and the end semesters exam accounts for 50%.
