I have been shortlisted for DCP program in IMT G and MBA BM in XIMB? Which one would be better among the two?

BG

I would say that you should definitely choose XIMB.

It's their primary program, and it will be much better than IMT G's DCP program. Just because of cost. The DCP program has fees that are over 22 lakhs and an average package of around 9 lakhs per annum. In contrast, the XIMB BM program has an average package of 13 lakhs per annum and fees of 15.40 lakhs for two years. Also, keep in mind that the DCP program is still new, so there won't be much support from the business. 

I would have considered IMT G if it was a full-time program. If you can move up to IMT Ghaziabad and want to get an MBA with a focus on marketing and entrepreneurship courses, you should choose IMT Ghaziabad. But the DCP course fee isn't worth it for the same opportunity unless you want to work abroad, especially in Dubai.

Which is better for a CSE, PES University or NIT Patna?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : January 9th, 2024

PES University is better for CSE in comparison to NIT Patna. PES has established a brand name over the years.

It offers better placement opportunities in comparison to NIT Patna. The college infrastructure, environment and other facilities are good. The administration is strict in certain manners, and the students are expected to fulfill the attendance criteria. 

Though it is not very affordable, and the hostels aren’t top notch. But it offers good industry exposure, and the student crowd and faculty of this college is also good enough. 

I would recommend PES for your CSE. However, I would also suggest you talk to some of the department seniors at both these colleges for better decision making.

Which one would be a better choice for pursuing B.Tech both institute wise as well as placement wise University Institute of Technology Burdwan CSE or Silicon Institute of Technology CSE ?

SV
Shivani Verma Posted On : October 4th, 2021
Studied at Silicon Institute of Technology

UIT Burdwan is not a good choice when compared to Silicon Institute of Technology. You should avoid going there. The following are the points to be considered.

  • UIT Burdwan is Government funded and affiliated with Burdwan University. But the intake of 60 undergraduate students is low.
  • It accepts only WBJEE ranks for admission.
  • The placement in UIT Burdwan is also poor. It offers limited internship opportunities for the students.
  • A few of the top recruiters in CSE include TCS, Infotech, Infosys, IBM, L&T, and more.

The placement statistics are below.

Lowest Salary INR 2.4 LPA
Average Salary INR 4 LPA
Highest Salary INR 8.5 LPA
Placement Percentage 50%

UIT Burdwan is not the best place to get admission. The curriculum is old, so college life seems like a time killer. However, if inclined towards CSE or IT branch, look for colleges in Bangalore. It is the Silicon Valley of India and a hub for major IT companies.

What should I choose between SJMSOM and IIM Lucknow considering that there is a fee waiver for SC students at SJMSOM? My profile is engineering fresher from a non IIT/NIT college with 9/9/8 acads.

PM
Prashant Mantri Posted On : January 9th, 2023
studied Integrated Program in Management at Indian Institute of Management Indore (2022)

Personally, I will recommend you join IIM Lucknow . The reason being your outstanding profile. With such an amazing profile you have multiple chances of getting selected in the top firms in Consulting and Investment Banking areas. Many of these reputed companies do not visit the campus if SJMSOM at all. So you will be losing a lifetime of opportunities.

Also, at the end of the day, IIM Lucknow is a top 4 IIM and its brand name will influence you throughout your life. The fees are not a problem as the majority of the students take educational loans offered at low-interest rates. You can pay it back within 5-7 years with the high paying job you land post-MBA.

Which is better for me as a resident of Chandigarh, Uiet Chandigarh or VIT Vellore?

SG
Satadru Ghosh Posted On : May 31st, 2021
Studied at University Business School, Panjab University, Chandigarh (2019)

Both the colleges are good at their place but it depends upon your perspective that what you expect from your college life. 

  • If you live in Chandigarh and opt for UIET, you will remain in your comfort zone of your home city. 
  • But instead of staying in your city and deciding to get admission to VIT, Vellore, you learn many things during your undergraduate life. 
  • Eventually, when you stay in a hostel away from your parents you start taking complete responsibility for food, studies, laundry, etc. This will in your future make you independent. 
  • In Chandigarh, you will get independence only when you get a job in some other state and have to move out of the city. It will be like a drastic change in your life.
  • Meeting new people will always help you to make connections and you will receive enough exposure.

If you compare the quality of education that is provided in both UIET and VIT, you can determine this easily by talking to the students who are studying as they have real-life experience of the campus. But the fee structure of UIET is comparatively lower than that of VIT as the college comes under a center-funded state university.

How many marks do I need to get a payment seat at Jhalawar or RUHS?

RB
Ritusha Banerjee Posted On : October 25th, 2021
BA in Hindi from Jadavpur University

My friend got Jhalawar Medical College with 500 marks and above in NEET, but with a payment seat through 85% State quota. The basic residence requirement is that you should be a domicile of Rajasthan.

Jhalawar Medical College takes in 100 students each year out of which, 15 are for NRIs, 35 for high tuition fee givers as per Bhargav commission's decision, 15 seats are reserved for All India candidates and the rest are for State quota.

The fee for payment seats is INR 5 LPA, so if you can afford it then go ahead; otherwise, you should target 550+ marks to get admitted to any of the Government Medical Colleges in Rajasthan.

But coming to the preparation, you can prepare by revising NCERT books of Biology, Physics and Chemistry. Don't forget to practice previous year’s papers at home in a timed fashion.

Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : May 8th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Although there should not be any confusion at all as there is a huge difference between FMS and IIM-S. FMS is one of the two best B-schools in India, while IIM-S is good but not at par with FMS, except only for the IIM tag. 

Choosing between FMS Delhi and IIM-S depends on your personal goals, preferences, and many other factors. Both institutions have their strengths and weaknesses, so you should carefully evaluate your options before making a decision. You should consider your long-term career goals and see which institution aligns best with those goals. You should also consider factors such as location, cost, and campus culture.

Why should I choose IIM Shillong over newer IIMs?

AB
Abhinab Bose Posted On : January 16th, 2023
IIM Shillong PGP 14-16

There isn’t any valid reason for choosing IIM Shillong over the newer IIMs. This is because their establishment time is pretty much the same and not much can be compared. Rather than comparing, I can list down some points as to why you should choose IIM Shillong 

  • Despite its location disadvantage, it offers pretty good placement opportunities.
  • The faculty here is also top-notch
  • The peer group is diverse and very talented

The alumni base however is very small obviously because it’s a new IIM. I don’t see why you should go for IIM Shillong and not any other second-generation IIM. But if you compare it to the baby IIMs that have been recently established, it’s definitely a better choice

Which one do you think is better for a PGDM among IMI Bhubaneswar and BIMTECH Noida (insurance)?

AS
Armaan Sayed Posted On : April 26th, 2023
studied at Amity University (2019)

Both are Tier-1 colleges under CMAT but BIMTECH is superior. You're interested in insurance, which is a rare banking sales offering. Few jobs fit this category.

  1. Actuary (CAT profile)
  2. Hardcore insurance field sales
  3. Business development officer/advisor/relationship manager (70–75% sales outdoor, 25–30% office

IMI Bhubaneswar boasts a strong faculty, a Ph.D., and over 25 years of expertise in academics. The teachers here aid with assignments and offer after-school tutoring.

Go with BIMTECH because it has a good name. BIMTECH wins, and they have a track record of finding jobs faster for their Insurance students than for their Core students.

Does Lady Hardinge Medical College and Maulana Azad Medical College take admissions through the AIPMT or do they have their own exam?

AA
Ajita Arora Posted On : October 22nd, 2021
Studies B.Tech Electrical Engineering from National Institute of Technology, Warangal, 2022

No, the institutes do not have separate examinations. Which is to say, the admissions can be availed under 2 categories:

  1. 15% National Quota
  2. 85% State Quota

Now, you also have to go through AIPMT, wherein the seats are assigned to students based upon the rank they have secured, under the 1st category nonetheless.

When talking about the applicants who qualify for the Delhi State Quota, there is a provision of a separate state-wise ranking. You are required to fill a separate form based upon the seats assigned, which most likely is 85% as the state quota.
