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.
IIT Mandi is better for placement support, especially in the CSE branch than MNNIT Allahabad. The students opt for IIT Mandi largely due to their attractive branch change policy. You will get a chance for a branch change after your first-year completion.
CSE opens a wide array of opportunities since it is a broad area. Many giant companies offers high-salary jobs to students from IIT Mandi. About 98% of students were placed in big companies. IIT Mandi is the best option when you are concerned with placement support. They also offer good classes and a resourceful campus life to the students.
Admission to IIM Shillong may be competitive, as the institute places a strong emphasis on academic performance in its admissions process.

It is important for candidates to put in the effort to prepare for the admissions process and strive to achieve a high score in order to have a better chance of being accepted to IIM Shillong. It is advisable for candidates to take the necessary steps to improve their academic performance and increase their chances of being admitted to this competitive institute.

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.
Yes, both IIM Ranchi as well as IIM Raipur consider sectional cutoffs for admissions. You can find the exact figures on their official website under the program you are looking for. I have mentioned the cutoff for the PGDM program.

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!

There is also an option of a sabbatical for up to 2 years for select students for IPM.
