In which university is it easier to score good marks in a B.A in English Hons in Calcutta University or in Burdwan University?

SA
Shashank Arora Posted On : October 1st, 2021
Studied at University of Calcutta (2018)

Calcutta University's syllabus is standard when compared to Burdwan University. However, it will not help you get good grades, instead, it will develop you in a better way. CU will provide the proper exposure as it is India's first state university with 150+ institutions. 

  • If you study in CU and get a 50% or higher on your exams, you are considered to be a good student.
  • Students generally choose Calcutta University over other institutions because there are few good colleges affiliated with universities. 
  • The university has switched to a semester structure since last year. So, improved grades can be expected, with quality education. 
  • More than 130 colleges are connected with CU. Not all of them are good. 
  • Scottish Church, Bethune, Victoria, St. Pauls, Jaipuria, Vidyasagar, and Maulana Azad are just a few of the famous colleges affiliated with CU. 
  • These colleges are available to you. You may expect high-quality education here. 

For achieving good academic scores, You can also enroll in other institutions such as Burdwan University (Chandannagar College is a great institution), Rabindra Bharati University, or private universities like Techno India or UEM. They are a bit expensive, yet they not only deliver good marks, but also placement prospects. So the choice is yours, if you want to go to CU opt for it or if not go for other colleges.

What is better, IBS Hyderabad or IILM?

HS
Hamza Shabir Posted On : February 24th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India (2000–present)

It can be concluded that IBS Hyderabad is a better choice than IILM University based on the placement percentage, the average package offered, the highest international and domestic packages offered, and the top recruiters. IBS Hyderabad recorded a placement percentage of 99% with an average package offered of INR 8.71 LPA and a rise in the highest international package offered as compared to 2021. On the other hand, IILM University had a lower highest and average package offered at INR 18 LPA and INR 7.50 LPA, respectively. 

Additionally, IBS Hyderabad has a strong brand value with over 58,000 alumni employed globally, while IILM University has limited brand recognition. The brand value of IBS Hyderabad, as an established B-School, contributes to better graduate placement opportunities through its alumni network and strong corporate relationships. In comparison, IILM University is not as well-known and its graduates may face limitations in terms of job opportunities. These factors highlight the superiority of IBS Hyderabad as a better option for those looking to pursue a management degree.

I have got admission offer for an MBA program from IIM Udaipur, IIM Rohtak and IIM Trichy. Which one should I choose?

VS
Vrushali Sharma Posted On : July 30th, 2021
Studied at NIFT Delhi (2019)

One of my friends faced a similar problem while choosing among all of the second-generation IIMs - Trichy, Kashipur, Udaipur, Ranchi, Rohtak, and Raipur. Let me share his experience which might give you a basic idea.

  • He decided to conduct his own preliminary investigation without seeking any assistance from anyone.
  • Furthermore, he simply went to the websites and Facebook pages of these IIMs and looked at what each of them does, particularly in terms of placements and campus life and activities.

IIM Trichy and IIM Udaipur were his final two options. The following are the reasons why he chose IIM Trichy:

  • Faculty
  • Placements
  • Infrastructure and activities on campus
  • Conversations with the seniors
  • Mentorship advice

How would you compare KJ Somaiya's PGDM with NIRMA's MBA in terms of placement and opportunities? Which one will be better?

BG
Banika Gaira Posted On : December 26th, 2022
PGDM in International Business (college major) & Marketing, K.J. Somaiya Institute of Management Studies and Research (SIMSR) (Graduated 2020)

Comparing the 2 B Schools that are KJ Somaiya and NIRMA, I would say both are equal in terms of placements, opportunities and exposure. The only factor you need to consider here is location. NIRMA is a good choice if your hometown is nearby. But if you want to enjoy your college life, explore and make memories, KJ Somaiya is the best. Located in Vidyavihar, a student-dominated area in Mumbai, it has an amazing campus with top-notch facilities.

Placements 

The table below draws a clear comparison between both the B Schools.

Is It at IIEST Shibpur or IIIT Gwalior better?

DK
Deepak Kumar Posted On : February 26th, 2021
MBA from Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2020)

IIEST Shibpur is one of the oldest institutes in India, which is mentored even prior to establishing the first IIT in this country. It is an institute with different feelings rather and a respected institute in India.

The infrastructural facilities and the IT department itself are excellent, and the most important thing is that Microsoft recruits from this institute. Besides, you will receive a good internship opportunity and the placement percentage is also satisfactory. One student even made an internship opportunity in Google, California. If it is compared with CSE, then IT is somewhat behind, as a student from the CSE background gets higher CTCs. But IT has diversity, which is also good.

Additionally, IT in IIEST is one of the branches in which students can face a bitter rivalry, although the student’s quality of this branch is outstanding (far better than the CSE in most cases). The faculties of IT are also excellent like the CSE department.

The placement of both of these institutes is also very good. The main difference is seen in the academic curriculum, which is negligible in most cases.

Particulars

IIEST Shibpur

IIIT Gwalior

Highest Salary

39 LPA

42 LPA

1st year Fees

If the student considers IIIT Gwalior, then it can be mentioned that it is undoubtedly a good college, but it is quite behind in most cases if it is compared with IIEST in recent days.

Thus, the student should try for IIEST; if they get a chance, they must go for it without thinking of any other options.

Which is best between Maharaja Suraj Mal and KIIT?

AB
Aayush Bhardwaj Posted On : June 19th, 2021
Studied at Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology

One of my cousins studied at KIIT and it is an amazing college in East India, with a wonderful infrastructure, skilled faculties, and placement records. The alumni network of KIIT is its biggest asset.

On the other hand, Maharaja SurajMal College has a decent campus. The infrastructure is quite old and students complain about the cleanliness around the campus pretty often. There is WiFi service throughout the campus. The library is common for all the branches and is not maintained well.

  • Curriculum: It is pretty much the same at both KIIT and Maharaja Suraj Mal College. But the facilities offered at KIIT are far better.
  • Diversity: The student crowd on campus at Maharaja Suraj Mal is pretty diverse. The surroundings around campus are safe for girls. The female-to-male student ratio is around 40:60 Crowd at KIIT is kind of monotonous. Students belong to either West Bengal, Jharkhand, or Bihar. The place is a bit boring when compared to Maharaja College.

AS
Abhay Pratap Singh Posted On : January 5th, 2021
Undergraduate Computer Science, Delhi Technological University (2021)

  • The hostels are not good and have connectivity issues. They are located very far from the main campus. 
  • The facilities offered are incomparable with other colleges.

Placements:

  • As NIT Delhi is a newly established institution, the placements offered are also not very enduring as compared to NITs and other colleges such as PEC Chandigarh or IIIT Delhi. 
  • IIIT Delhi has better placements than NIT Delhi as they have more experienced departments.

Coding Culture:

  • The coding environment at NIT Delhi, in comparison with other colleges, is also not good.

NIT Raipur CSE is at the same level as that of top NITs and IITs in terms of job opportunities and academics. Its improving placement scenario over the past few years is a testament to the fact that it’s going to be one of the top NITs very soon. Here is a brief comparison of these institutes

  • 2021: INR 10.23 LPA
  • 2022: INR 10.12 LPA

Additionally, students of the CSE department are also offered decent internship opportunities. NIT Raipur has an extensive alumni base that helps attract better and more recruiters. The placement scenario at IIIT Raipur is not as good as NIT Raipur and is relatively new so it has a non-existent alumni base. 

So choose NIT Raipur over IIIT Raipur without any second thoughts.
