Is it worth taking admission for an MBBS at AIIMS Rishikesh or Raipur or Patna if I am getting good colleges from the state counselling like RML Lucknow or GSVM Kanpur?

KK
Kanishka Katriar Posted On : November 16th, 2022
AIIMS Raipur 2016 M.B.B.S. batch

AIIMS Rishikesh, Raipur or Patna all are well reputed institutes and should not be underestimated. They are institutes of national importance and autonomous institutes of central government.

The infrastructure of AIIMS Raipur is better than most state medical colleges of India. The only disadvantage is that you won't be able to get a 50% state quota in NEET PG.

The core points of these institutes are:

  • Infrastructure

  • Faculty

  • Facilities 

  • Fees

  • AIIMS title

  • Small batch size facilitates better teaching 

So yes, it’s worth taking admission at AIIMS Raipur or Patna for MBBS.

Is Galgotias College of Engineering and Technology better than Amity University Noida?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : September 12th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

The question is a bit vague as you did not mention the criteria or the branch for comparison so I will offer my neutral reviews. 

Usually one considers parameters like curriculum, infrastructure, fees, placement, and brand name. Also, your skills and knowledge by the end of 4 years affect your rate of employability. One needs to have excellent industry connections and the tag of a good college to make him employable. That being said, Galgotias has a slight advantage over Amity as it has better placements and industry connections. 

Ultimately I will say that if you have no financial constraints, go for Amity but if you want to earn your placement go for Galgotias.

Should I take NIT Suratkal IT or IIT BHU metallurgy?

PG
Prajukta Ghose Posted On : April 6th, 2023
Studied at the Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi

If you're trying to decide between NIT Suratkal and IIT(BHU) Varanasi, here are some points to consider:

  • First, think about your interests. If you're interested in coding and tech, NIT Suratkal may be the better option for you.
  • However, if the branch isn't a major factor in your decision, you may want to consider IIT(BHU) Varanasi. The IIT brand and alumni network are both very strong, and the Metallurgy Department at IIT(BHU) is one of the best and oldest in India.
  • That being said, if job placements are a top priority for you, it's worth noting that Metallurgy may not be the best choice in terms of placement opportunities. Only a few core companies come to IIT(BHU) Varanasi to recruit metallurgy students, and the packages they offer are often below average. Other students end up being placed in non-core sectors, like consulting and analytics.
  • On the other hand, while NIT Suratkal IT may not offer the best placement packages either, you'll likely have more opportunities in the field of IT, which you'll have studied in college.
  • Another advantage of IIT(BHU) Varanasi is the potential for higher studies opportunities. You'll have plenty of time to prepare for exams like CAT, GRE, GMAT, and even IAS if you're interested.
  • Finally, if you're willing to put in the work during your first semester at IIT(BHU) Varanasi, you can start off in Metallurgy and then switch to a different branch with better opportunities later on.

Consider your interests and priorities when making your decision. If coding and tech excite you, go for NIT Suratkal. But if you're looking for a strong alumni network and potential for higher studies opportunities, IIT(BHU) Varanasi may be the better choice.

KS
Keerthana Sarma Posted On : December 26th, 2022
PGDM in Post Graduate Diploma in Management, K.J. Somaiya Institute of Management Studies and Research (SIMSR) (Graduated 2020)

Placement-wise both the colleges give each other tough competition. Some basic differences between the two are

Specialization: SDA Bocconi has an upper hand in marketing roles whereas KJ Somaiya has the upper hand in finance roles.

Batch-size: KJ Somaiya has a higher batch-size than SDA Bocconi. Therefore the student-teacher ratio is also higher. This affects the classroom learning experience.

Fees: SDA Bocconi has higher fees( INR 18,60,000) than that of KJ Somaiya (INR 9.59 Lakhs (1st Year Fees).

So it’s up to you to decide if you are willing to pay a high fee and get the tag of a well renowned brand in Europe or pay less and get into an above average B School of India. Academic-wise the result from both the colleges will be more or less the same.

Is CMC Vellore better than AIIMS?

MA
Madhav Aneja Posted On : March 30th, 2023
Lived in Chandigarh, India

I have a lot of friends who are doctors today and have completed their M.B.B.S. from either CMC Vellore or AIIMS. I can easily answer your question.

  • Most graduates after completing their M.B.B.S. from AIIMS prefer either settling abroad or aiming for higher education while CMC graduates mostly continue their higher education at CMC itself.
  • CMC students are required to do bonds in missionary hospitals and their higher education is their second priority. They provide social services in the form of healthcare facilities in remote areas of the country and contribute largely to society. AIIMS students' priority is usually a high-paying job or an excellent university for higher education.
  • AIIMS graduates are more skilled in research and thus tend to publish more than CMC students.
  • CMC students have more real-time experience than AIIMS students and possess great clinical and surgical skills. They can transform their theoretical knowledge into practical approaches way earlier than AIIMS students.
  • CMC gives more preference to Christians and thus non Christians find it difficult to undergo training from MBBS to super-specialty at CMC.

Here is a video that gives an overview of CMC Vellore

These are some major points of comparison I have observed between my graduate friends from the 2 institutes.

Which is better, IIT Hyderabad mechanical or NIT Trichy CS?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : May 16th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Whether IIT Hyderabad Mechanical or NIT Tricy CS is ‘better’ depends on multiple factors such as your inclinations and career prospects. In short, if you are passionate about Mechanical Engineering then IIT Hyderabad is the best option. The placement opportunities will be average but the scope of higher studies ad research is great here. On the other hand, if you are inclined towards CS, NIT Trichy is the destination for you.

Apart from the branch, there are various other factors like the kind of campus life you want and your interest in getting placed. If you are looking for a glamorous campus life, NIT Trichy will serve you better. NIT Trichy is known for its rich extracurricular culture and has a lot of well-established student clubs. It also has excellent infrastructure and a huge campus with enough space for all of them. Those interested in programming, robotics, etc can pursue their passion as there are many clubs for the same. Here. your branch rarely matters as you will be involved in similar activities as everyone. 

There are some students who are driven by the monetary return they will be getting and getting placed is their ultimate goal. In that case, it is important to know that placements in mechanical will not be on par with CSE. NIT Trichy placements are excellent and there are almost 100% placements. So placements wise too, NIT Trichy is better than IIT Hyderabad. 

Location-wise, IIT Hyderabad has a slight advantage over NIT Trichy. So both colleges have their own strengths and weaknesses and your personal preference should be the ultimate driving factor. 

In terms of both campus life and placements, I will rank NITT > IIT H irrespective of all other factors.

Considering global value and ROI, is ISB Hyderabad a better B school than FMS Delhi?

AA
Aishwarya Anand Posted On : January 10th, 2023
MBA in Master of Business Administration Degrees & Marketing, Vienna University of Economics and Business (Graduated 2017)

ISB and FMS are the premier business schools in India, with distinct USPs.

Global Value:

In terms of global value, ISB, Hyderabad is far ahead of its Indian counterparts. On a global scale, even IIMs struggle to compete with ISB. When it comes to global values, ISB is far ahead of FMS. It is ranked as India's top management college for a 1-year MBA in QS Rankings and the 7th best management college in the world in the Forbes list. FMS, New Delhi, lacks international exposure.

ROI:

FMS has no competition in the world in terms of ROI. ISB charges around Rs 35 lakhs for a one-year MBA, whereas FMS charges around Rs 2 lakhs for a fully residential two-year MBA program. Furthermore, the average CTC of both schools is nearly identical. FMS wins this race by a long shot.

studied B.Sc in Mathematics with Honors, Kirori Mal College, Delhi University (2021)

A friend of mine was in a similar condition a few years back and he choose Kirori Mal College for his B.Sc (Physical Science with CS). According to him, you should choose the course that interests you. 

However, the computer science courses offered by DU can’t be compared to B.Tech. As the curriculum used at DU is not that great. However, the learning environment for Honors courses is better. It’s better to consider all your option and choose the one that suits your future goals.
