Out of the two colleges, Panimalar College is good for Mechanical Engineering. The faculties are well educated and well qualified that deliver the best lectures to promote conceptual learning but the environment is quite strict.

The college offers placement for almost every student with the highest package 15-20 LPA and an average package of 4.5 LPA, as per recent statistics. The fees of the college are also affordable.

Getting admission in Panimalar has an edge over Rajalakshmi in terms of placement, quality of education provided, type of faculty, study environment, and most important of all fee structure. Get out of your comfort zone and search for the various options suitable for you for your holistic development.

If you are looking for a college with a strong faculty pool, it's worth noting that MICA's faculty pool is better. Their faculty members have done impressive research work, and they've had CXO-level professionals from FMCG, FMCD, Advertising, and BFSI sectors take classes as visiting faculty and guest industry lecturers.

Both MICA and NMIMS have extremely strong alumni networks with alumni in impressive positions and careers. However, if you are interested in marketing specifically, MICA's alumni may be more advantageous as they have traditionally dominated this field.

Regarding placements, NMIMS has a slight advantage in terms of median and average packages. However, it's important to consider that the profiles that come to each college are different. While MICA is well-represented in other sectors, they haven't had consulting companies on campus, while NMIMS has been lagging in Advertising.

The fee and ROI are similar for both colleges, and they have similar student pools. However, a key differentiator is Campus Life. MICA has one of the most beautiful campuses in India, spread across 19 acres with over 3000 trees and well-maintained. In contrast, NMIMS is a typical 7-floor conglomerate office with zero foot space outside the building, and students do not live on campus.

These were essential parameters that mattered to the person who conducted the research, and they ended up selecting MICA over NMIMS. If these factors are important to you, then MICA might be the better choice for you too.

According to my friends at IIIT Guwahati, CSE at IIIT Guwahati is definitely a better choice. Let me provide some points which will give you a better insight into the colleges.

• The campus of NIT Puducherry is almost 130 km away from the city, located in a remote place known as Karaikal. This hampers placements.
• In NIT Puducherry, 90-95% of students are from South India. So, students from other parts of the country face a serious linguistic problem.
• For most North Indian Students, it is somewhat hard to sustain in the South Indian culture.
• IIIT Guwahati has experienced rapid growth over the last few years, which makes it a much better choice than NIT Patna/ Puducherry.
• There is no home state quota in IIIT Guwahati, so there is no such problem of linguistics as in NITs.
• In addition, there are 18 students in IIIT Guwahati who are from abroad, selected through the DASA UG scheme of 18 seats.
• From 2019, the B.Tech seats were increased by 33% for Girl Supernumerary Quota, because the previous batch had only 3.5% girls. The total number of seats from then is 233.

Therefore, IIIT Guwahati has a lot of advantages over NIT Patna/ Puducherry, which makes it a better choice for students in engineering.

If you had to choose from the options mentioned, it's recommended to opt for a brand name. Your priority should be IMT Ghaziabad, IMI Delhi, and SIOM Nashik.

When it comes to Operations Management, NITIE, and IITs are considered to be top-notch. They offer a comprehensive curriculum, job roles, and industry exposure, making them highly sought-after. In fact, IITs have established their brand in management, specifically due to their expertise in operations. However, when it comes to Operation major, NITIE remains unparalleled, as they have the longest chain of alumni in operations, holding high-level designations for many years.

If operations are still your preferred field, and you don't have any other options apart from NITIE or IITs, then your decision should be entirely based on the brand you are joining.

Both IBS Hyderabad and UBS Mumbai offer MBA programs with pros and cons. Consider these:

• Rankings and Reputation: IBS Hyderabad and UBS Mumbai are top Indian B-schools. NIRF ranks IBS Hyderabad 15th and UBS Mumbai 35th among Indian management institutes. ISB Hyderabad, ranked 28th in the Financial Times Global MBA Rankings 2021, is internationally recognized.
• Courses: IBS Hyderabad and UBS Mumbai provide comparable management courses. IBS Hyderabad employs case studies, whereas UBS Mumbai combines lectures and case studies.
• Many IBS Hyderabad instructors are industry veterans. UBS Mumbai professors are also well-qualified and experienced 
• Placement: Top corporations recruit on both campuses. IBS Hyderabad offers 7-8 LPA, whereas UBS Mumbai offers 9-10 LPA
• IBS is in Hyderabad, and UBS is in Mumbai. Hyderabad has a leading IT industry, whereas Mumbai has finance and entertainment.

Both IBS Hyderabad and UBS Mumbai are good B-schools, and the choice hinges on geography, course content, and reputation.

When it comes to IIIT Allahabad, there are a few things that you should know before making a decision: You should choose for CSE IIIT Allahabad over VIT. 

• Firstly, the institution is commonly referred to as IIIT A, despite there being no difference between IIIT and IT. Contrary to popular belief, there is no significant difference between CSE and IT, as the course structure at IIIT A is top-notch and highly regarded in India. You can refer to websites such as Quora to get an idea about the placement statistics and course structure ranking in BRICS, or to clarify any doubts you may have.
• However, it is important to note that if you are interested in exploring other fields of engineering, you may not receive much exposure at IIIT A. The primary courses offered here are IT and ECE.
• On the other hand, if you are passionate about coding and aspire to achieve something big in the field of computers, IIIT A is an excellent choice. The institute has a range of technical societies, such as the Competitive Coding Wing, Web Development Wing, FOSS Wing for open source software development, Graphics Wing, Networking Wing, and App Development Wing, among others. These societies provide exposure to all aspects of computer science that you may not find in many other engineering colleges.
• When it comes to VIT, it is important to note that you may not be able to expect top-notch faculty, as the institution is run by a private organization that does not have to provide feedback to anyone about the people they bring in to teach. This is in contrast to IIIT A, which is a government-funded institution and therefore employs top-notch faculty (although not necessarily the best in India). Additionally, there is an entrance exam, but there is no proper cutoff, and students of all kinds are admitted.
• If you are a female student, it is important to consider the safety and security measures in place at VIT, as it may be a concern.
• In terms of exposure to the "coding culture" and other similar things, IIIT Allahabad is a better choice.
• Finally, it is worth noting that there are students at IIIT A who have qualified by category ranks that may differ by 10,000. While this is not a significant proportion, it is worth considering if you are concerned about reservations.
