Admission

I was very clear from the start that I wanted to pursue BTech in the CSE branch only no matter which college I got into. Based on my rank in jee mains I had 3-4 options among the best colleges in north India. Various colleges I applied to are DTU, NSUT, IIIT DELHI, NIT JALANDHAR, PEC. However I choose PEC because of its culture and placement stats. Moreover, it was close to my city making it easy for me to travel. Due to reservations in Delhi colleges, I couldn't get cse there. this was also a reason I choose pec.

For improvement in teaching methods, they can go digital, like using smartboards, or use more practical teaching methods, or maybe just improve the way of teaching simply. Teaching methods here really need upgrades, mostly students here have to rely on youtube when exams come near.

Placement Experience:

The placements have been lowered by 10-20% recently, but they are getting better. You will get a job if you manage cgpa above 7 and are decent with your skills, but then don't dream for 20lpa + jobs, you need to work upon yourself in silence to get 25-50 lpa packages and they do happen in our colleges, highest package in electrical 2024-25 was 52 lpa and in ece cse they had 61 lpa. Companies start coming in 3rd year for internships, only 10% manage to get intern in 3rd year, companies like microsoft, atlassian, flipkart, mercedes, jp morgan etc. they do come. Placement perecentage is like 75-80% in electrical and it is very low in civil (around 40-50%), in cse it is like 90% or even higher. My plan is to get an intern asap. (Maybe in 2nd year theough offcampus)
