Why is that BIT Mesra has not gained as much fame as BITS Pilani though it was setup before BITS, with good infrastructure?
BITS Pilani is located in Rajasthan, which is and used to be a part of India's so-called active north. As a result, BIT Mesra is not preferred by the people of the north, who have better options of IITs and NITs. While some go for the south. It is only an ideal place for Bihar, Bengal, Orisha, Jharkhand, and the neighboring state.
BIT Mesra was ranked 7th by India Today Group Survey, but it remains isolated in terms of fame because students are the biggest marketer for a deemed institution. If you say, “Hey, I am from Bit Mesra,” the likely answer would be, “Is it a subsidiary unit of Bits Pilani?” As BITS Pilani is more reputed.
Here are a few other reasons why BIT Mesra has not gained much recognition among the students.
- The kind of behavior carried or promoted among teachers is more akin to a school teacher, so the title professor is unnecessary.
- The management approach at BIT is very bad; there is a lot of paperwork to be done for any minor thing. From the time you enroll until the day you leave the campus you will have to go through many paper works.
- Off campuses are given no value by the main campus, and this is a major reason why BIT is not mentioned with off campuses. Whereas Pilani has four centers that are advertised, in very good condition, and are given true care by the Pilani main campus. This is a major reason why Pillani is more well-known than Mesra.
- There is no student council or student politics, and no student welfare council composed of fellow students exists or is promoted.
- Apart from these, the governor of Jharkhand, who is only present at convocations, is the chancellor of Mesra, while Pilani is completely managed by the Birlas, with MR Kumar Mangalam Birla as the chairman.
- Another major reason for Pillani's success is the engineering entrance exam pattern. BIT Pilani organizes a separate exam called BIT SAT, whereas BIT Mesra does not take any separate exam.
This all that I have learned through my connections at the institutes. Hope this helps in clearing your doubts.
Which is better for CSE, BITS Pilani or ISM Dhanbad?
ISM is good because its tag helps in getting better opportunities in the future. If you're average at coding, even then do not worry because at ISM you will anyway get good packages. Being a government college, the syllabus at ISM Dhanbad is better.
ISM has a placement rate of 100% for CSE in IIT Dhanbad. If you're planning to study abroad then the IIT degree will matter greatly for admission to any foreign University.
As for BITS Pilani, surely it ranks among the top educational institutes in India for engineering. It is on par with the top IITs and the placement rate is 100% like at ISM Dhanbad.
The campus keeps getting renovated and holds a photographic charm with state-of-the-art facilities. The crowd is amazing as well. You can decide based on your location, future goals, preferred weather if you will- because both institutes are at par with each other.
What is life like in BITS Pilani?
Life at BITS Pilani is good in general. The academic part is pretty standard. Since there is no compulsory attendance, you will have the freedom to do what you want with your time. But you will have to face the consequences of your decision. This sets BITS Pilani apart from most colleges. It teaches you to be accountable.
Pilani is a small place, but there are many places to hang out both inside and outside the campus. It has many students clubs and groups. You can easily find like-minded people with shared interests.
By how much will the cutoffs decrease after the 1st round of counseling at BITS Pilani?
BITS Pilani conducts its own entrance test, BITS Aptitude Test (BITSAT), to admit students to its various engineering and science programs offered by its three campuses at Pilani, Hyderabad, and Goa. Generally, it is seen that the cut-offs of the first round of counseling are very much high. This is because many students tend to leave the institute after they get admission at some IITs or NITs or any other college of their choice.
The cut-offs decrease significantly in the second round of counseling. Now how much it will decrease is very difficult to predict at any stage. Each year the candidate pool is different. But if you look at the 1st round cut-off and the final round cut-off you will get the picture.
Which is better, BITS Pilani (Pilani campus) or IIT Ropar?
BITS Pilani has been in existence much before IIT Ropar and while it is just growing, BITS Pilani would be a better choice.
It’s not only the Institutes with the IIT tag that have contributed to the successful future of engineering and promoting it, but the institutes other than IITs such as BITS Pilani, IIEST, and Jadavpur University have played a significant role.
| Categories | BITS Pilani (Pilani Campus) | IIT Ropar |
| Course Fee | 19.19 lakh | 8.58 lakh |
| Highest CTC | 24 LPA | 18-20 LPA |
| Average CTC | 15 LPA | 8-9 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | Wipro, TCS, Accenture, Dell, etc. | HP, Tata Steel, Deloitte, Capgemini, etc. |
The education they furnish is the same as that of any IITs. Therefore, BITS can be taken into consideration.
Is it worth taking B Pharmacy at Bits Pilani and leaving a BTech in mining in NIT Raipur?
You should go for B.Pharmacy at BITS Pilani Hyderabad mainly if show definite interest in the field.
- As far as the faculty is concerned, you can rest assured that it is quite good and the campus itself holds national as well as international level symposiums. In other words, college life is very well established.
- You will have a variety of extra-curricular activities, sports as well as academic flexibility at all three campuses.
- However, you should note that the course structure of this branch could be a tad bit different from the regular B.E Hons branches on the campus. In case you plan to shift to engineering or sciences career options if you lose interest in the current subject, it could prove to be a little difficult.
Your choices will also depend on what you plan to do after college. If you are primarily looking for an engineering job, you should go to NIT Raipur. Pharmacy probably does not have good job opportunities if you are an undergraduate. It will be necessary for you to do a master’s degree.
When you go to BITS, they will ensure that you will get the all-around development you need along with its well-developed alumni association. If you are planning on doing an MBA after pharma, you might have good prospects in the future.
Lastly, take pharmacy only if you are confident enough that you can handle biology and chemistry. Don’t expect to get placed, there are chances that you might not get a very good package.
In other words, you should join BITS but you will have to work really hard. Although it will be worth it. What you can gain from BITS is a hundred times better than what you will get from NIT Raipur.
Which is better in terms of placements for m.tech cs, bits pilani, IIITH or ISI kolkata?
After reading some reviews online, I can say that, if you want to be a data scientist, ISI Kolkata would be a good choice. In fact, it is said to be the top college for aspiring data scientists. This would definitely open up a lot of opportunities.
| Categories | M.Tech CS at BITS Pilani | M.Tech CS at IIIT H | M.Tech CS at ISI Kolkata |
| Course Fee | 8.92 lakh | 5.60 lakh | 40,000 |
| Highest CTC | 16 LPA | 19 LPA | 12-14 LPA |
| Average CTC | 9 LPA | 8-10 LPA | 6 PA |
| Recruiting Companies | Wipro, CTS, etc. | Infosys, Capgemini, etc. | TCS, IBM, etc. |
However, if you want to be a developer, the ISI M.Tech CS program falls short of IIIT-H and BITS Pilani CSE. I believe IIIT-H and BITS Pilani offers similar opportunities for software developer positions.
How good is IT at IIIT-Allahabad compared to CSE at BITS, Pilani and IIIT-H?
IIITs are Information Technology oriented institutes. These institutes only offer Computer Science and IT-related courses. If you are interested in building a career in the IT sector, IIIT Allahabad and IIIT Hyderabad are great options. IIIT Allahabad has an excellent coding culture. It also offers good placements in the IT sector. IIIT Allahabad placements 2022 concluded with an average CTC of INR 26 LPA, while the highest CTC was around INR 1.4 CPA.
What happens if we miss the course registration at BITS Pilani?
The registration is a process through which you will choose your instructors for the course. For registering you will be randomly allotted a number called PR number and that's the basis for the registration.
Secondly, the bigger the PR number, the lesser are your chances of getting the most popular instructors. That can be a real loss because you might miss out on good teaching and good marks. So, it's better to register soonest.
In case you miss the ongoing registration, you can register after a week. you will be charged a late fee and once it's been submitted you can register but again, it'll not be worth it because by the time you will register, all the amiable, erudite, and friendly guides would have been chosen by others.
How is BITS Goa compared to BITS Pilani? Is the placement and faculty much better at Pilani? Is BITS Goa a good viable option?
