Which branch is better to join, CSE at IIT Indore or MNC (mathematics and computing) at IIT Guwahati?

My brother was in a similar dilemma last year when he had to choose between MnC IIT Guwahati and CSE IIT Indore. Eventually, he went for IIT Indore CSE. The main reason he decided against going for the MnC program was his lack of interest in Math. And when we talk about Math at IIT, trust me when I say it’s at another level. It’s purely proof-based and high-level Math that can be handled only by true Math lovers. The academic workload is also high with 60% Math and 40% CS courses. Now, here are a few points that might convince you to join IIT Indore instead IIT Indore qualified for ACM-ICPC World Finals thrice. This in itself is quite an achievement considering this event's importance. As per HackerRank, IIT Indore is said to have the best coders in the whole country. Additionally, it’s at the 8th position globally for the best coders IIT Indore has an extensive alumni base who completed their Master's from top foreign universities like Stanford, Caltech, University of Columbia. Many talented alumni also increase the credibility of the institute by working at reputed firms like Google and Facebook. This year, the CS department recorded 100% placements with the highest and average packages standing at INR 48.5 LPA and INR 30.32 LPA respectively. Overall, IIT Indore CSE is a much better choice than MnC IIT Guwahati considering the work of and job opportunities.

What should I prefer Mathematics and Computing at IIT BHU or IIT Indore CSE?

I think opting for IIT Indore CSE is a better option than choosing Mathematics and Computing at IIT BHU. IIT Indore offers an excellent opportunity for the students in the CSE department. It has excellent undergraduate research opportunities and many foreign collaborations. The average course fee for a year's BTech program under the CSE department is around INR 2.99 lakhs. IIT Indore offers excellent placement opportunities for students with 89.76% placements for B.Tech.

IIT Indore College Review

The fee for a general category student is around 1 lakh 35 thousand which is good for a govt college but accordingly the rooms and lecture halls and study materials provided are also very good. A scholarship available is provided by govt for SC/ST students and MMVY provided by the Madhya Pradesh govt to students of Madhya Pradesh who scored more than 85 percent in Boards. The employment rate is very good in our college with an average around 19 lakhs overall.

Faculty is so friendly and many courses doesn't have attendance

The fee structure is based on the income status If you have income of less than 1 lakh the the fees will be around 25,000 per semester If you are from obc noncreamy layer then you have to pay 1,35,000 per semester I am from OBC-NCL so I am paying 1,35,000 per semester. I don't know much about this

My review of IIT Indore

No there is no hike for fee structure in campus. The fee structure will be same for all years which is combined for mess and hostels . The fee structure is different for different students (they consider caste and economy of parents). There is a loan facility for students.
