BITS- A Real Review

Faculty:

Most of the students don't go to class as there is no attendance policy. So almost 2nd year students avoid going to classes. Exam scene is very strict and there is no chance of cheating or other things. Family members are very highly qualified and good

BITS Pilani- A relevant review of Pharmacy

The faculty student ratio is 12-13 profs per department. Some faculty are approachable, whereas some are not very approachable, although faculty-student feedback is available 24*7. The typical course structure ranges from 10-15% for quizzes (witha buffer ie, n-1, some profs do not give buffers, ie avg of the number od quizzes conducted). For pharmacy, the lab takes up about 20-25% of the grade. Mid-semester examination is about 30-35% (1.5hr- written), the end semester examintaion is about 40-45% of the course total (3hr). One of the components of the course is supposed to be OPEN BOOK ie students can carry their notes, slides and book depending on the professor. This component is approximately 10-15% depending on the professor. Courses are flexible and mostly dependent on the professor in charge.

BITS Pilani delivers ; provided the fees fits your budget

Faculty to student ratio is low it is 15:1 , better than other colleges but still low faculty number . The faculty to student relationship is impressive .Faculties are very approchable . Tapomoy Guha Sarkar,Paritosh Shukla as well as RIshikesh Vaidya are very helpful and passionate teachers .Didnt like Biswanathan Layak for he s very unapproachable and is pathetic at explaining a concept to you .Apart from regular quizzes ( surprise or announced depends on the department ) there are mid terms and end terms . There is necessarily an open book section of 15 % in the course .The oveerall difficulty of the exams is high if the exam is easy the averages go high and due to relative grading the grading again become tough . Expect to study on avg 3 hours a day if you wish to get a CGPA above 8

all about BITS PILANI!

Professors are quite good in the college. Course syllabus, marking scheme, number of tests etc are already given in the handout of each course before the semester starts. Final exams are often open book where you can take the textbooks, slides, your notes.

Life at BITS Pilani: Academics, Life and more

Student and faculty ratio is quite well, tutorial classes have 30 students per class enhancing one on one interactions. Thermodynamics faculty: Prof. Manoj Soni and Chemistry faculties: Prof. Rajeev Sakhuja and Prof. Paritosh Shukla have excellent teaching abilities and deliver tough concepts with ease to all students Exams are divided into quizzes, assignments(in some subjects), midterm and comprehensive examination(endsem) Quizzes can be surprise or announced depending on the professor and are generally held throughout the semester. Exam difficulty keeps on increasing gradually as you proceed towards endsem. Open book examinations are especially tough in particular.

Honest BITS Pilani (Pilani Campus) Review

Likes

Faculty and teaching quality: The faculty here is well-qualified with PhDs and research experience.

The faculty at BITS Pilani (Pilani Campus) is well qualified, with all holding PhDs from reputed institutes from India and abroad. The faculty to student ration is reasonable and due to relatively smaller batches, professors are approachable. For all the courses, there is a mid semester exam and a comprehensive exam which has the most weighatge. Apart from these, there can be surprise/announced quizzes or assignments depending on the course and the professor. Grading is relative, and it's rare for many students to fail.

BITS Pilani - It's magic

Faculty in bits is preety decent with almost all profs with solid research background and ongoing research works. Vinay kumar chamola is the prof with the most no of publications. The faculty to student ratio is also pretty decent. The evaluatives are spread across the semester and can be pretty tough to handle for some.
