i applied to other colleges like vit, amrita, srm, bitsat, snu and got confirmed by other colleges like vit and srm and snu.. I choose this college from others because this is a college with limited seat opportunities and provides good competition between each others among peers here is a merit selection in this college.. Yeah i got rejection in amrita exam as i did'nt write the exam because i did'nt prepare for it because i got severe dengue fever for 10 days like before the exam.. The admission process of my college is first written exam in online mode after wards if you get selected you will called for an interview afterwards they select you based on your performance. The eligibility which they accpeted was 75% marks in boards and the exams most preferred by students was vit..

Admission:

This college SNUC is with unique futuristic courses. SNUC has the level of highness that i expected.When you compare SNUC with VIT it is very much better. The crowd in VIT will be very high and there are no sports facilities and extracurricular activities that develop students. That much crowd may be difficult to professors focus on you. In SNUC the campus is 230 acer but the crowd is very less and the professors can easily put there attention on you and also we have international level cricket and football ground. Admission process is only through SNUCEE exam which contain the negative marking also.You have to get more than 75% in your 12 th board exams then only youre eligible for this exam.If you qualify this exam then you will have interview round and after you qualify the interview round you will be sent with a offer letter to admission.

I had applied to symbiosis , NMIMS Christ University and many others. The reason I decided to come to SNU CHENNAI was so that I could have better placements and the education would be good.

Admission:

I had applied to SRM University, VIT Chennai and LPU Noida and got a confirmed admission in all of the colleges I applied. I chose SNUC mainly because of the student to teacher ratio. I never faced rejections from the other colleges. So the admission process of my college begins with an entry exam named SNUCEE to be given. SNUCEE exam tests one's knowledge in Math, Physics, Chemistry, English and Aptitude. The portions are the same as JEE Mains. Usually, SNUCEE occurs at three sessions at centres available all over India. Once getting shortlisted after the exam has to give their interview which tests their speaking and commmunication skill.

Admission:

I also applied to Jaypee Noida, VIT, Thapar, SRM, Amrita and Manipal. I got into all of them with computer science core. I didn't choose Jaypee because it was in Delhi and it's too far away from home, hence due to safety reasons we eliminated that option. I rejected Thapar due to this reason too. At VIT, I got cs core at Chennai campus and I thought SNU was a better option than VIT and SRM. Amrita and Manipal were good options too but in the end I decided SNU Chennai was where I wanna be. The campus, the location, the course, the fees and the faculty all factors considered I thought SNU chennai was my best choice. The admission process for my college is a 2 step process, there's a written test SNUCEEE which is followed by an interview if shortlisted. The exam is pretty easy but there's a lot of competition and the interview is just to test your basic communication skills.
