Life at IIT Kharagpur

I also had selected the IIT BHU CSE and IIT KGP MNC but my rank didn't cross the threshold for these so that's why I chose the best for me which was IIT KGP B.Tech. in E&ECE. I was also getting CSE in IIT Dhanbad but I do not have that much interest in CSE, but obviously if I would've got CSE in colleges like IIT BHU, I would've certainly chosen it due to their placements and exposure. The Admission process in IIT Kharagpur is similar like other IITs. First of all crack JEE Advanced and get a good rank to clear the cut-off rank for the Dream Branch you're willing to get (Take previous year ranks as reference), like for E&ECE in IIT KGP Last year closing rank for general in round 5 of JOSAA Counselling was 1448. Apply for Seat allocation on Josaa lock the seats you prefer the most. Once you get a confirmed seat You will get provisional offer letter from josaa, download that. Then collect all the documents needed for Admission in IIT Kharagpur like Xth Marksheet, XIIth Marksheet, Caste Certificate(if applicable) etc. you can check these documents in UG Admission Module given at IIT KGP website. Then Come here in the campus and get the Physical Document verification completed and also one of the halls like LBS for Freshers will be allotted to you and here you now officially you're a kgpian. In my case the Josaa just created some problems like payment updation on websites otehrwise the document verification was very smooth....Read More

From gate exam we get admission purely based on gate scores. I got in IIT Bombay and IIT Roorkee in education technology and semiconductor device mtech program but it's more placement oriented and good if someone looking to switch in data science or software engineer roles, so I choose it. Almost 100% placement....Read More

Yes based on gate score I got an interview call letter from IIT KGP. In interview they asked some questions from this domain in Electrical Department. Based On interview and gate score , I got Selected. Now coming to the wrong thing that had happened here - look this specialization is new here, there are many several updates that need to be applied in coming batches. Some Professor are not supportive in placements. Very hectic course works , normal guy cannot survive here. Be carefull it is full of mathematics and coding and statistics....Read More
