How does the newly added plagiarism tool work in the BITS Pilani?
According to my friends studying at BITS Pilani, it is highly advanced when it comes to technology and its advancement. BITS Pilani has added a plagiarism tool on its campus to check the student’s capability to write an essay on an unknown topic.
- This tool has been generated specifically to go through the soft copies and the answers uploaded on it by digital means.
- The topics given for the essay writing is an anonymous topic and sometimes students also give in their essays in hardcopy format.
- In such cases, the student checks and again works on their essay before submitting it.
- When submitted the hard copy files are scanned and then converted into soft copies and are then made to go through the plagiarism tool.
Students are aware of the tool and therefore check the essay multiple times before submitting it. The plagiarism tool is very advanced and also very accurate. It searches the essay multiple times in every order to find out the copied content and identifies as little as phrases used in the same order.

What specifications can I expect out of the laptop I am likely to get at the onset in KIIT?
I have a friend who is an alumnus of KIIT. He was able to provide the specification of the laptop offered to students in the 2016 batch.
- Laptop Model: Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 460
- Type or Mode of Laptop: Convertible Laptop and Touch Screen
- Display Size and Type: 14 inches (Full HD, Anti Glare)
- Pixel Density: 210 PPI
- Resolution: 1920 x 1080 px
- Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce 940M (2 GB dedicated, 6 GB dynamic)
- Processor: Intel Core i5 processor (6th Generation; it offers a maximum of2.71 GHz clock speed)
- RAM: 8GB (RAM Speed: 1600 MHz)
- HDD: 1TB
- Backlit Keyboard
- Fingerprint Scanner
- Webcam (720p)
- Carbon Magnesium Alloy Body (The feature is in itself a very dynamic one. It comes with a serious fingerprint magnet)
However, there is no ethernet port. In contrast, the university does not also provide any LAN connection, so you eventually do not need the ethernet port anyway.
The laptops provided to the students do not usually come with a ThinkPad pro stylus when they generally should. In the case of gaming, they work seamlessly. Thus, it should not be an issue to be concerned about.
Can anyone guide me regarding what kind of questions are asked in NITIE Mumbai for PGDIE intakes?
A friend of mine appeared for the PGDIE interview of NITIE Mumbai, a few years back. He is a Mechanical Engineering graduate. Around 70% of the interview questions were about his profile and his B.Tech project. There were some questions from his graduation subjects as well. During the interview, they often ask technical questions like, ‘Why NITIE?’, ‘What is your career goal?’, etc.
NITIE selection criteria assign more weightage to the GATE score. If you have a decent GATE score, you will have an edge over others. But don’t take the GD-PI round lightly.
