Is KJ Somaiya worth the efforts of two years? Why do people say VJTI is better? Besides placements what does VJTI have that KJ Somaiya doesn’t? Or can you say KJ Somaiya is better than VJTI?

At the end of the day, you either want a good, well-paid job, a research position, or a startup initiative, or if you want to go for your majors. VJTI provides you all these things. 

A few years back, KJ Somaiya was performing well, but deteriorating gradually. Ultimately, the brand matters. If you get admission in an old NIT or an IIT, the tag definitely matters. As during interviews, the tag acts as a major preference.

• VJTI is definitely a very good brand. COEP is the only other real competition. 
• Academics is not a very strong suit of any of the colleges but pursuing research could prove different. 
• All the old government colleges support and uplift your efforts. But it also has to be your initiative. Ultimately you have to make the right decision, while teachers and seniors can only guide you.
• If you plan to go into Investment Banking or Consulting straight out of college, only one of the old IITs or BITS gets you that. 
• A similar reputation is enjoyed by VJTI and COEP in different firms and types of roles.

To give a clear idea about these colleges, VJTI will only take care or help you with your academic development, KJ Somaiya will look out for your all-rounder development. So now, it’s completely your choice, what you want to choose.
