Is Anna University good for studying MBA?
Anna University is one of the most coveted colleges for MBA under the TANCET category. The reasons for its high demand are:
- Extremely low fees in comparison to other colleges which makes it possible for the financially weaker students to apply.
- The faculty is not only experienced but also very supportive. Rather than just teaching, why also enhance the students general social competence.
- The university offers a dual specialisation in the following courses: Marketing, Finance, Human Resource, Systems and Operations.
- The placements are also fairly good. Anyone who has scored above average marks gets placed easily. Highest CTC offered was INR 36 LPA whereas Average CTC offered was INR 7 LPA. Some major companies that visit the campus for recruitment include Cisco, DE Shaw, Ola, Samsung, Tiger Analytics.
Besides whether s university is good or bad depends more on your soft skills like communication skills and determination.

Other state (OS) students have two main ways to get admissions into Anna University.
Through Other State Quota: Only government colleges can be availed through this. About 2-3 seats are available only for each department. The counselling procedure is based on home state 12 equivalent marks.

How good are the placements in Anna University for M.Tech students in biotechnology?
The placement opportunities for M.Tech students in biotechnology at Anna University are very rare. My friend is a student of Anna University currently pursuing M. tech in biotechnology. She told me that the reality is different once you get into college. No doubt the teachers and curriculum are top notch, but the sole focus throughout the entire first year is studies. There are no practicals at all. Rather it looks like studying the core subjects of B.Tech with higher level education.
The second year has both minor and major projects. Once you are done with the projects you have to do the job seeking alone. There are no placements. Sometimes your mentor can offer you a decent package that will give you sufficient industrial exposure. After this you can apply for high-paying jobs also.
What is the condition of the Anna University hostel?
Unlike the general belief, the hostels at Anna University are indeed in good condition. People spread false information regarding its conditions. Some points that support this fact are
- The hostel management has taken keen interest in maintaining the quality of the hostel.
- Separate boys and girls hostels are available with separate mess facilities also.
- Good Wi-Fi connection with restrictions on some websites help students concentrate on their studies.
- Your hostel room will be shared by 4 people so you can make friends for your lifetime.
- The food here is good but is repeated a lot and you might get a bit bored after some time.
- A TV hall has been opened for entertainment purposes. You can spend your leisure time there either watching TV or reading newspapers.

All these points made me believe that the hostels of Anna University are not as bad as people often portray them.

How should I attempt 16 mark questions from Anna University exams?
Firstly you need to change your aim. Rather than scoring good marks, your aim should be to acquire a better understanding of the concepts. This will help you in the long run. Follow these tips that will guide you on how to attempt 16 marks questions in Anna University exams:
-
Don’t extend the 16 marks answers to more than 5 pages.
-
Attend the question you are most well versed in first. Then keep moving in descending order.
-
Neat and tidy presentation never goes unnoticed. Use black ink for headings and blue for other parts.
-
Assign a time limit to each answer (30 minutes per answer). This will give you proper time to write every answer.
-
Adding pencil-made sketches will fetch you extra marks.
Pro tip: Don’t write irrelevant information on your 2 marks answers. The examiner will assume you did the same for the 16 marks questions.
