Why should we join NIT Raipur? Everybody says that joining NIT Raipur is a waste of time because people don't get jobs after.

SB

studied at National Institute of Technology, Raipur

The question you should ask yourself is whether you can drop another year for your JEE preparation or not. If you are confident enough that you can rank higher in your next attempt and get a better college, you can definitely reject NIT Raipur. 

However, to think NIT Raipur won’t provide you with any jobs is incorrect. Though it is a tier 2 college and does not offer the same opportunities as top NITs, getting placed depends more on your hard work and caliber. Even IITians end up without jobs at times. So you have to take your future in your own hands. If you have the skillset you’ll get placed off campus if not on campus. 

Research about the branch you are getting at NIT Raipur, learn about your career prospects, and prepare accordingly. You can also join the institution and still give your next JEE Mains attempt. 

Thus, joining NIT Raipur is not a waste of time. You’ll have to learn to make the best use of its resources and facilities.

I am kind of an introvert. Is my life going to be tough at IIM Bangalore?

PT
Pragya Tripathi Posted On : December 29th, 2022
MBA, IIM Bangalore | Painter | Gamer | Chef

Because of the way the courses, pedagogy, and hostel stay are designed at IIM Bangalore, the transition from introvert to socializer is seamless. Take things at your own pace, avoid peer pressure, and you will gradually notice the transformation. You'll gradually gain confidence in interacting with others and attending parties.

Here are some of the ways IIMB can assist you:

  • Group Projects: Group projects are required in 90% of IIMB courses and account for a significant portion of the grade. This would be carried over into your professional career. The course will gradually acquaint you with collaborative methods and prepare you for the future. And group projects are about more than just work. It's thrilling.
  • Clubs and Societies: You will be a part of groups that plan events and put on successful festivals. Even if you are not a member of a club, you can gain experience by volunteering at events.
  • Case Study: Most of the subjects here are taught using a case study method, which requires you to discuss in groups to get multiple people's perspectives on each case. Believe me, case studies work best in groups, and the interactions can teach you a lot about different points of view.

Being an introvert does not imply that you are a poor communicator. That is the most important skill, and it is what an MBA will teach you. Yes, life at IIMB would be difficult for you, but not because you are an introvert. You will look back on those two years at IIMB as some of the best of your life. So, if you are afraid to join IIMB because you are an introvert, you can overcome that fear.

Does IIM Calcutta have a Student Exchange Program?

JT
Jayant Thakur Posted On : December 20th, 2022
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Kashipur (Graduated 2021)

There is a Student Exchange Program at each IIM. How old a college is, makes the biggest difference. When compared to newer IIMs, older B schools will have more and better tie-ups with colleges. IIM Calcutta is no exception. As an old college, it has ties with many good schools all over the world.

In today's world, managers must be able to quickly adjust and adapt to a variety of situations, as well as be adaptable enough to work with teams spread across the globe. In such cases, familiarity with foreign cultures and etiquette becomes critical. IIM Calcutta aims to prepare all of its graduates to deal with an increasingly globalized world. Second-year students are given the opportunity to study abroad for a trimester as part of this endeavor. This teaches students how to work in multinational teams while also learning about the intricacies of multiple ethnicities.

The Student Exchange Program (STEP) provides our students with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to practice their skills in a global setting. Additionally, this aids them in learning important information about their peer group at the partner institute. Along with fostering relationships that last a lifetime, this exchange gives students the opportunity to hone the practical abilities needed to function effectively in groups of people from a wide range of backgrounds. Thus, teachers try to instill in their students the traits that managers of today highly value, such as being more tolerant and open-minded.

STEP takes up the fifth trimester of a total of six trimesters that an IIMC student must attend. Students can attend courses of their choice at the partner institute and receive the necessary academic credits at IIM Calcutta for their efforts. STEP allows a student to be exposed to various perspectives on management practice today, as well as see them applied in a variety of situations.

Do North Indians have a problem in adjusting with food at IIM Kozhikode?

AS
Anshika Saxena Posted On : May 10th, 2023

Actually not, but it all depends and it changes from person to person. The food in IIM Kozhikode (in fact in any of the IIMs) is not only based on South Indian cuisine but the college mess includes all kinds of continental cuisines, it keeps changing and the students are the ones who change and decide the menu. 

Apart from this IIM-K (all IIMs) have canteens on campus where students can have whatever they want and can choose from a wide range of varieties.

So, there won’t be any problem in adjusting and don’t worry much about the food if you got a call from IIM-K. Cheers!
