Is IIT Patna CSE is better or mathematics and computing at IIT Guwahati?
Whether IIT Patna CSE is better or MnC at IIT Guwahati, depends on what you want to do after your graduation.
If you have an interest in pure and abstract Math and want to do research in Maths, theoretical computer science, Set theory, Group Theory, and Complexity Theory, then the IIT Guwahati MnC program is the best for you.
However, if you have an interest in coding and want to become a competitive programmer, or a software developer, and research in areas other than Theoretical Computer Science, then IIT Patna CSE is the right choice for you. Extensive research on every CS field is done here.
Basically, the academic workload of the MnC program at IIT Guwahati is too much with a very rigid curriculum that will spare you no time to focus on coding. No doubt, the MnC program too has excellent job opportunities in finance, banking, and software jobs. But, the demand for CS students is much more than MnC students and is expected to be increasingly so over the next few years.
Common courses of CS and MNC include theoretical computer science, some being computer networks, and operating systems while the rest of the courses are related to abstract Maths/pure Math and are highly rigorous in nature. Contrary to popular belief, there aren't many common concepts between MnC and CS.
IIT Guwahati will give you a slightly better campus life in comparison to IIT Patna considering its scenic campus and high-level fests organized by the institute.
Is the academic rigor at XLRI comparable to IIM-A?
I have a few friends at both XLRI and IIM A and based on the interaction I had with them, I will say that rigor is similar to a greater extent. It is more of a choice - you can choose to let loose or work hard. You can choose to study 3, 4, or 5 hours additionally to have a strong foundation over a topic or simply not.
Academic Rigor - Ranking (XLRI>IIM A):
If we judge these institutes based on the data collected by the Govt. of India, then XLRI coursework is more rigorous as compared to IIM A.
In ranking, Graduation Outcome (GO) is the determining factor of teaching and learning ability of the students, graduation average, success of securing good placements, going for higher education. It is measured based on various parameters such as placement average, Median CTC, percentage of students going for higher education, etc.
There’s a sub-parameter called GPH, i.e. combined matric for placements and higher studies under GO. It shows the academic rigor of an institute. According to the recent statistics, the scores are as follows.
- IIM A scores 38.46 out of 40
- XLRI scores 39.81 out of 40
However, rigor is dependent on an individual's decisions and perspectives hence it tends to vary significantly from student to student.
Which college is better for a BTech ECE CGC: Landran or Chandigarh University?
When it comes to selecting a college, it's important to consider various factors such as the curriculum, faculty, infrastructure, location, and placement opportunities. If you are considering CGC and CU Gharuan, you may want to take note of the following information.
CGC is affiliated with Punjab Technical University (PTU), whereas CU Gharuan is a university in itself. While being affiliated with PTU has its advantages, such as following a standardized curriculum and receiving recognition from the university, it's important to note that not all colleges under PTU may be of the same standard.
On the other hand, CU Gharuan is a recognized university that offers a range of courses across different fields. The university has its own faculty, infrastructure, and curriculum that is designed to provide students with a comprehensive learning experience.
When it comes to placements, both CGC and CU Gharuan have a dedicated placement cell that assists students in finding job opportunities. However, it's important to note that placement outcomes are not solely dependent on the college, but also on various other factors such as the student's skills, interests, and abilities, and the industry requirements.
While some colleges under PTU may not have a good reputation, it's not fair to generalize and say that all colleges under PTU are of no use. Similarly, while CU Gharuan may be a good option for some students, it may not be the best option for everyone. It's important to thoroughly research and consider all the factors before making a decision.
Which college is better for computer science engineering: VIT, Pune or PICT? Which of these colleges promote extra-curricular activities the most?
PICT is the best option for CSE in Pune followed by VIT Pune. The faculty pool of PICT stands apart from other colleges making it the dream college of many. I once visited a technical project exhibition in PICT and fell in love with the innovative environment of the college.
The cutoffs are usually high for PICT and it accepts only the best crowd. So you will get an amazing experience if you choose PICT over VIT.
Is NIT Jamshedpur CSE better than NIT Rourkela CSE?
The two primary criteria to evaluate a branch's credibility are academics and job opportunities.
Academically, NIT Rourkela has a certain advantage over Jamshedpur because it is one of the top NITs. Moreover, the curriculum followed is rigorous and students are expected to maintain a high attendance. The CSE department in particular is very rigid, unlike NIT Jamshedpur which has a laid-back attitude with very lenient professors. It's quite challenging to score high marks at NIT Rourkela CSE especially its Data Structures and Algorithms which is a compulsory course for every branch in the first year. The professors are very passionate and learned so the classroom sessions are quite intuitive. But maintaining a high score may be a problem here so you can go for NIT Jamshedpur.
Placements: Most software companies don’t visit NIT Rourkela because of its remote location and lack of air connectivity. Here is a comparative analysis of the placement statistics of both NIT Jamshedpur and NIT Rourkela

Why is LNCT Bhopal better than OIST Bhopal?
Both LNCT Bhopal and OIST Bhopal have gained a reputation among other engineering colleges in Madhya Pradesh. Here are some of the reasons why.
- Both the institutes are among the oldest engineering colleges in Bhopal, and in light of this fact, the academic depth crucially slopes higher with respect to their age of establishment.
- In fact, the major upside both institutes boast is their infrastructure and faculty strength, unlike many other institutes.
- The placement reports, most essentially, are booming, regardless of present circumstances.
However, when compared there are no such differences between LNCT Bhopal and OIST Bhopal.
Pros of LNCT:
- LNCT Bhopal, recently, improved its disciplinary and management strategies. OIST Bhopal, on the other hand, also has its own management yet it is not as it used to be.
- The placements of LNCT have been better than OIST for the last few years now. The reason behind this is their TPO, who earlier was associated with Oriental. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at the institute is 3.5 LPA, while the highest CTC offered was 21 LPA.
- However, in placement numbers, OIST still beats LNCT due to the mass recruitment of TCS.
Cons of LNCT:
- Regardless of their disciplinary actions, LNCT does mandate an attendance requirement until the final year, which is severely hard to maintain.
- It is quite transparent as to why students have a hard time preparing for exams like GATE or CAT.
- The technical and cultural fests are quite infrequent, as opposed to what is in OIST Bhopal. However, this is not as crucial as the other aspects of the institute.
Nonetheless, if you are opting between the both, LNCT Bhopal has an upper hand, even though by only a few pointers. But, given the scenario, there are no greatly noticeable differences between the two institutes, except only a few handfuls.
Which branch is better, IIT Kanpur statistics and data science (B.Sc) or IIT Dhanbad CSE?
Both the courses are good.
However, with the advancement of technologies like AI and ML, and one’s increasing dependency upon them, Data Science has become a field with immense potential.
Data Science has a lot of future scope, and its demand will only increase with time. This field requires a good understanding of Statistics, Mathematics, and Computer Science (Especially Python Language).
BSc. in Data Science is an even better option than CSE at present. Moreover, college-wise, IIT Kanpur is way ahead of IIT Dhanbad.
Therefore I would recommend you choose BSc. Statistics and Data Science at IIT Kanpur over CSE at IIT Dhanbad.
How is studying at the BITS Goa campus different from that in Pilani?
In terms of your degree, it will not mention the campus you studied at but that you got a degree from BITS Pilani. There is also no difference in the coursework or material. But, when it comes to differences, here are some of the major ones:
- In terms of discipline, the Goa campus is strict due to obvious reasons and Pilani is a little lenient that way. But that does not mean you will be restricted. It is the perfect balance of discipline and fun.
- You will find that the grading is also quite tough in Goa as compared to Pilani. The faculty at Pilani are quite helpful but some could be tough on you.
- You will find some cultural differences between the two campuses. There isn’t a stark contrast but small things that make a difference like the way students join a department, etc.
- BITS Pilani has always topped Goa in terms of reputation. But, CSE at Goa is much better than Pilani. This is because students at Goa have won quite a few competitions and gotten better than Pilani. It also has more GSoC selections.
- BITS Pilani is located quite isolated with extreme cold -2 degrees Celsius and extreme heat of 50 degrees Celsius. There is not much to do outside the campus. You can drive down to Delhi or Jaipur which are about 3 to 4 hours away. Goa is better located in that aspect. You can take a 40 min drive to the main city or even drive to Mumbai if you like.
If you think curriculum is what makes the difference between the two campuses, that is not the case. It is more about the day-to-day living at the college and other events.
Which would be a better: Amity University, Noida or VIPS-IP?
Amity University, Noida is better than VIPS-IP. It offers good exposure and salary packages to students. During the 2021 placement drive, more than 340 companies visited the placement drive. The highest and average CTC offered were INR 21.5 LPA and 5 LPA. With a large campus and decent facilities, Amity Noida offers a better campus life.
However, for curses like BJMC and Journalism, VIPS is better.
What is better, NIT Silchar or IIITM Gwalior?
Better is a very relative term. Better in what aspect? Every institute has unique traits and one might be better than the other on the basis of one aspect but not on the other. That being said, consider the following parameters and the preferable institute in that regard
- Placement: IIITM Gwalior>NIT Silchar
