While a question like this is bound to attract varying and subjective answers as every student has his/her own preference when it comes to professors. However, there are some brilliant professors which are mutually admired by most of the students. Given are the names of some professors who are considered to be one of the best at IIT Kharagpur.
All these professors have influenced their students’ lives in one way or the other either through inspiration or by imparting knowledge, their teaching methods and interactions with students have played a major role in their students’ success.
I suggest you not to score below 6.5 as CGPA 7 is a must to get admission in a good foreign university. However with a CGPA of 6.5 you can go for Government jobs. I know a friend who did not focus on CGPA and played football and today is struggling to get a good job.
It is all the more difficult to get a good CGPA after low marks in the first semester because the professors evaluate you on the basis of previous grades sometimes. However, you will get placement into a decent private company so you don’t have to worry much.
Basically, even after getting admission at a good institute like IIT KGP, you have to keep struggling to score high marks.
A few of my friends were Institute toppers and I asked them about their study method. Most of my topper friends study just 2 days before exams in the library and then teach their friends and clear their doubts.
Another topper friend solved all the previous year question papers of the subject and uploads the solutions on the Facebook group a day before the exam. She never missed any class, had great handwriting and prepared great notes.
So basically, toppers , prepare for the exams way before most of us even begin. They are kind, selfless and are ready to help anyone who is unable to cope up.
Ultimately, every student has his unique way of studying.
There are a number of things that distinguish IIT Kharagpur from other IITs. My answer entails such attributes only.
Life at IIT KGP is filled with fun and exciting activities.
My cousin had got a branch change from Mechanical engineering to Electronics engineering (ECE). He shared his experience with me of how easy it was to get a branch change.
The primary and most important thing is to be regular and give equal attention to all subjects. You have to focus on your studies only and not let any distractions take the better of you. Be firm on your goal and give up all time-wasting activities.
You need to be rightly motivated and determined to achieve these goals. Not losing hope is the key as one or two exams do not define you. You will get ample opportunities to prove yourself so just keep working hard.
My cousin scored below average in the middle of the 2nd semester. However, she got this sudden motivation and studied hard and was able to score an overall CGPA of 9.64. She studied consistently every day and was able to change her branch eventually.
My brother had offers from IITs to choose any branch except CSE and chose Electrical Engineering in IIT KGP. To date, he does not regret his decision. There are ups and downs in every Institute; it just takes time to adapt yourself to such situations.
It is true that some professors overdo it and push you to the extreme, but if you look at this in a positive manner, it’s their pushing that eventually helps you succeed. There are many seniors who might make fun of your tiny efforts in the labs but trust me, today when they will look back, they will surely be regretting the time they wasted watching movies or series.
My brother told me that Electrical Engineering gave him so many friends and experiences that make him yearn for college life today. The labs are old-fashioned and lack much activity in contrast to a SigNet lab/ Power Systems lab.
I think it’s high time people clear misconceptions about Electrical Engineering and develop a positive opinion about it. We should stop running after jobs and companies and in turn let companies seek us.
Before sharing my PGDBA interview experience, I would like to list down my personal details:
Name- Minakshi Singh
Educational Background- BE graduate from BIT Mesra, Ranchi (74.4%), 12th (88.8%), 10th (10 CGPA).
Work experience: 1 year
Organization(Name): TCS
Designation: Software Engineer
The Interview was conducted in an online manner, and its duration was 30 minutes. There were three interviewers, and they made me feel comfortable before starting the PI. Here are some questions I was asked during the interview-
First, I was asked to Introduce myself. I answered politely and confidently. I told the interviewers everything about myself. I told them about my academic qualifications, my work experience, my schooling background, my interests, etc.
I was asked about my undergrad degree. I answered that I have completed my B.Tech from BIT Meshra, Ranchi in Computer Science. In response to this, I was asked the reason for pursuing CSE for my B.Tech. I responded by saying that I am interested in computer science, which is why I opted for a B.Tech in this stream.
Apart from my personal details, I was asked technical questions too. For example, one of the interviewers asked me to differentiate between Analytics and Analysis. The interviewers asked Business Analytics related questions, and questions on current affairs.
My advice to you would be to remain calm and confident during the interview, and to study a bit of current affairs. Also, make sure to study a bit on this course, and have answers to basic questions such as the one I have mentioned above.
Overall, my PGDBA interview experience at IIT Kharagpur was quite pleasant.
Out of 20 hostels, the size of rooms in every hostel is different. The best rooms are available in
Vidyasagar Hall of Residence for UG students. This hall provides single-room occupancy. In fact, many other halls like Meghnad Shah Hall of Residence and Patel hall of Residence to provide single-room occupancies, it’s the superior quality of the environment at Vidyasagar Hall that steals the show.
Other multiple occupancy halls that are pretty good include the LBS Hall of Residence. This hall is usually allocated to first-year UG students.
The worst hostels in terms of facilities are Patel, Azad, and Nehru. The rooms of these hostels were initially made for 2 students each but now they have become triple room occupancy.
PG students are allotted the MMM, BR Ambedkar, and VS Hall of residence. The BR Ambedkar Hall of residence has the best facilities and rooms among all the three halls of residence.
Facilities inside a room include two sockets, one LAN port, a steel bed, a wooden chair, and a wooden table. Every hostel corridor has an excellent wifi connection also.
Every person will have a different opinion on what advice work best for freshers. Instead of giving you a list of things to follow, I will suggest you just focus on 3 key points
Overall, you need a highly positive mindset before joining IIT. You need to be passionate about things and be ready to work hard and achieve them.
