Is it best to take admission in AIIMS Nagpur or Seth GS Medical College in the year 2023?

RT
Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : June 10th, 2023

My answer is a bit biased towards GSMC as my brother is an alumnus of the same. However, I’ll try my best to justify my bias towards it.

  • AIIMS Nagpur is a newly established college whereas Seth GSMC was established in 1926. It enjoys a better reputation than AIIMS Nagpur currently.
  • As for the bond, GSMC is under the umbrella of MCGM, so you will be spared from serving the bond in a rural area and will have to serve in BMC Hospital.
  • Because of its reputation, GSMC has a better reputation than AIIMS Nagpur and people from all over the country come here. 
  • GSMC has some of the most friendly seniors you could ask for. They help you in every possible way and there is no ragging at all.
  • As for USMLE, it requires guidance from seniors who have established themselves there. This is possible in GSMC because of a wider alumni base.
  • GSMC has the latest amenities with well-established departments providing the best research opportunities. 
  • The MLT and LTs are now fully air-conditioned. 

Ultimately, it’s best to look at the bigger picture and not focus only on the AIIMS tag. GSMC is better in terms of academics as well as reputation. No doubt, lack of hostel facilities does matter but not for someone who is ready to commit himself to the field.

Abhishek Singhal Posted On : January 10th, 2023
Digital Marketer | IIM Indore

Comparing IIM Indore’s program to IIM Rohtak, there is a simple conclusion- IIM Indore is better than IIM Rohtak in almost every aspect.

Similarly, IIM Indore's IPM course is better in every case scenario. This is because of

  • Older campus
  • Better faculty
  • Better connectivity with the industry
  • Better global image
  • The credibility of the course is far better
  • Better Alumni network
  • Better competition
  • Stronger brand name
  • Better location
  • Better placements

These are some parameters on which IIM Indore has an upper hand over IIM Rohtak. Also IIM Rohtak overall has lost its rankings over the past few years due to various controversies. So it’s best you don’t risk your career and go for IIM Indore instead.

Which one is better between IIM Lucknow PGP sustainability Management and IIM Shillong PGP and why?

AG
Anmol Gupta Posted On : January 16th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (Graduated 2019)

IIM Lucknow is one of the older IIMs and therefore has a stronger alumni base. IIMs mostly specialize in Core Management and Investment Banking. So before you consider taking Sustainable Management look up at the figures and campus records.

Sustainable Management is only beneficial if at the end of the program you have formed professional colleagues or have come up with a business idea.

Currently, Sustainable Development lacks the demand and credibility enjoyed by other domains. So it’s a risky choice and should be considered only if you are serious about it or don’t have any other options.

Should I take aerospace in PEC or CS in CCET Chandigarh?

KC
Khushi Chitra Posted On : May 4th, 2021
Studied M.E from Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh (2015)

It totally depends on your career interest. In India, there are very few jobs in the aerospace industry than in Computer Science Engineering. However, you should definitely pursue ‘Aerospace Engineering' at PEC University.

Aerospace in PEC

  • Aerospace Engineering (PEC University) is an excellent choice. It has a good reputation, personal development opportunities, better placements, and experienced faculty members.
  • Companies providing placement are Airbus, Rolls-Royce, BAE Systems, Bell Helicopter, Boeing, Honeywell Aerospace, Rockwell Collins, etc.

CS in CCET Chandigarh

  • Computer Science from CCET, Chandigarh, on the other hand, is not a good option. It is not as well-known as PEC University.
  • Campus placements are limited. CSE is now equivalent to MCA, and MCA graduates can apply for the same job as a Computer Science engineer.
  • Companies Provided placements are Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Infosys, Wipro, HCL, Cognizant Accenture, and many more.

SM
Sushmita Mondal Posted On : July 7th, 2021
Studied at Pune University (2019)

PIBM, Pune, and Sinhgad Institute of Management are some of the top reputed B-schools in India. Both the colleges mentioned above have their own advantages and disadvantages but it entirely depends on your capabilities.

However, if you have to choose a college, go for PIBM. For my sister’s admission, we visited both colleges but she was not satisfied with the curriculum. Hence, if you want to look at the colleges at the same level, you can opt for the following colleges:

  • Pune University (PUMBA) - It has the lowest fees for which the ROI will be good. PUMBA has an excellent faculty.
  • Indira Institute of Management Pune - It has an amazing brand value. The companies participating in their placement drive offered an average salary package ranging from 8-9 LPA.
  • PIBM and Sinhgad - Both are good colleges but their fees are comparatively higher than usual. ROI is average. As the salary package offered ranges from 3-4 LPA.

Finally, it is up to you and where your preferences lie. Make a list of what you are looking for in a management college, compare them, and then come to a conclusion. This choice will shape your career ahead.

Which college is better for civil engineering, SVITS Indore or LNCT Bhopal?

AT
Ayushi Tiwari Posted On : September 24th, 2021
Studied at Lakshmi Narain College of Technology,Bhopal

If you talk about civil engineering the scenario is quite similar for both the colleges whether it is SVITS Indore or LNCT Bhopal. Some of my friends are studying in both the colleges and here are some important facts you need to know.

  • For civil engineering, no core companies visit these colleges. However, a handful of companies might visit the campus ending up recruiting just about 3-5 students. Thus, core branches of engineering are not worth joining in these colleges.
  • If you want to prepare for GATE or other competitive exams, almost both cities are the same but Bhopal has an edge over Indore regarding the resources and facilities.
  • LNCT definitely has a higher number of placements with more and more software companies visiting the campus for recruitment. The placement ratio at LNCT remains better than SVITS or any other private college in the state.
  • Attendance criteria are a must in both the institutes with a minimum of 75% attendance compulsory for good sessional marks. Sometimes, it can be really hectic for you.
  • Although LNCT has an edge over SVITS due to a better placement record. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at LNCT ranges between 3-8 LPA, while at SVITS the average CTC offered is 3 LPA. The hectic schedule can be a hindrance if you want to do other preparations or additional courses. Here, attendance becomes the main issue as the college doesn’t give you attendance for preparing for competitive exams and so on.

In the end, core branches like civil engineering have the same situation in both colleges. Therefore, all you need to choose in the city and the placement record. In which, clearly LNCT stands higher in terms of both location and placement opportunities.

Pradeep Saini Posted On : July 5th, 2021
PGDM from Lal Bahadur Shastri Institute of Management, New Delhi (2018)

Among the above two institutes, PGDM in International Business at FORE is definitely a better option, considering the placement statistics of recent years. The points below give a brief overview of the key highlights of the FORE School of Management, along with its major advantages over LBSIM.

  • FORE School of Management offered an average package of 10.7 LPA in PGDM IB. On the other hand, the average package in PGDM at LBSIM is 8.5 LPA, which is quite lesser than that of FORE.
  • The International Business stream in PGDM at FORE has an outstanding syllabus, in which they teach quite a number of subjects different from the conventional core subjects.
  • The placement process of both FORE and LBSIM is almost the same.
  • Most companies allow only those students in their placement drives that have at least one of the specializations mentioned in their required profile. For example, a marketing company will allow only those students who have marketing as one of their specializations.
  • For students of the 2018-20 batch in FORE, the first specialization will be International Business. You have the liberty to choose any one of marketing, finance, strategy, IT, etc as your other specializations.

Therefore, the FORE School of Business offers an excellent PGDM International Business program, which has decent placement and ample opportunities for students.
