NIT Patna: Yes or No

The course is not so good. The syllabus is old and has to be revised according to new chemical engineering syllabus. It is merged with MSC chemistry syllabus that is not relevant at all. The faculties do not teach very well. They are not clear with their concepts. The end sem exam comes very early after the mid sems that is a cons.

I belong to general-ews category in the income range of (1lakh to 5 lakh) so I get 1/3rd remission from the total fees(including tution fee and hostel fee) . I have to pay 62,083 and 62,833 respectively in even and odd semesters of one year. Hostel fees is 40000 including mess charges per semester. Students from OBC-NCL category in the income range above b/w 1 to 5 lakh have to pay 62,833 and 62,083 in the odd and even semester. If the annual income ranges below 1 lakh the tution fee is free the got 100% scholarship. And have to pay only the hostel fee that is 40000 per semester. SC/ST students get 100% scholarship on tution fee they only have to pay 40000 per semester for hostel fee. General students income above 5 lakh have to pay 1,04,550 per semester. These scholarships are given by government based on category

The infrastructure is okayish. The girls hostel have 5 floors in which 4th floor and 5th floor have attached washroom which is good. But 1st, 2nd and 3rd floors are really congested. They are short . The classroom buildings are not good they do not have AC function in all the classrooms. Only fan is there.

There is no attached washroom in 1st,2nd and 3rd floor of girls hostel. 4th and 5th floor have attached washroom. 4th and 5th floor rooms are 5 seater and are spacious and have balcony also. Which is good. There is 24hr electricity which is a good thing. Except this there is no such facilities. 1st, 2nd and 3rd floor hostel rooms are very congested they are not spacious but authorities make it 4 seater that is very congested. It should be 2 seater only.

Actually according to my rank I was trying to get a good nit. I was not considering the branch as I wish to have a good environment of students and facilities. For admission into NIT Patna students have to appear for Jee mains examination and have to attain a decent rank that is percentile more tha 96%ile.

The faculty to students ratio is good. Faculties are approachable but they are not understandable. They do not give practical help. Prof. Abhishek Raj sir he taught us Elements of electrical engineering in second semester. He taught us very well. Also he is approachable. Prof. Rishi Kumar Jha sir , he taught us differential equations in second semester and he is superv with his knowledge and understanding experience. There are 2 written exams in a semester. One is mid sem and another is end sem. Mid sem exam contains 30 marks and end sem contains 60 marks. The rest 10 marks is of class tests and assignments. There is external and internal vivas these also contain some marks. The question paper is completely asked from pyqs and teachers notes. They are easy. One can prepare one week before exam very easily. Generally students pass the exams. The fail ratio is very low. I guess the course curriculum is relevant 5 times at a scale of 10 as Chemistry MSC syllabus is added to our chemical engineering course. Which is not good.

For girls the cirfue timing is 9 pm and for boys it is 10 pm. The gym is closed after 8:00 pm in the evening. Library open at 9 am in the morning and closes at 10 pm in the evening. The campus area is really very short. There is no such hangout area. There is one cafeteria inside SAC .
