Which college is better: VIT or KIIT?
I feel I am the right person to answer this as my brother and a friend are in VIT and KIIT respectively. From what I heard from them, I derived the following conclusions
- KIIT Campus is huge and you can find posters of Mr Achyuta Samanta at every corner of the campus. It looked more like an advertisement.
- The campus has a good location and enjoys the advantages of Bhubaneswar city.
- However, you will find very less diversity here as most of the engineering students are from East Indians.
- The hostel rooms are spacious and well-ventilated. The overall campus is clean and beautiful with decent facilities
My friend at VIT also experienced a similar situation as both are private colleges striving to attract students.

What is the cutoff for an MCA in NIT Trichy through the NIMCET?
The required cutoff partially depends upon the difficulty level of the NIMCET paper since it varies from one year to another.
However, for the previous two years, NITK was the conductor of the NIMCET exam and was actually announcing the ranks based on the scores predetermined by the authorities. For further securing admission at NIT Trichy, you are required to score around 800 or above if only the paper is comparatively easy and you belong from the general category.
In case the paper is somewhat moderate in its difficulty level, then achieving 700 and above can help you secure admission to NIT Trichy. But, if it is undeniably difficult, then 500+ is supposed to be quite enough for securing a seat at NIT Trichy.

Which B-school should I join if I have converted TISS, SJMSOM (IITB) and NITIE?
All three colleges are on top and choosing one among three is not easy. But I can give you some ideas about them as I have friends studying at these institutes. TISS is one of the most reputed colleges for HRM courses in the country. The top two institutes for HR programs are XLRI and 2nd is TISS. XLRI holds first place due to its history and huge batch size and placements.
- TISS is growing fast but still doesn’t have the same presence as XLRI has.
- TISS though has the advantage of a very small batch size compared to XLRI, which means lesser competition.
- And again TISS is at Bombay while XLRI is at Jamshedpur. I would say TISS is still a very good option for aspirants interested in HR.
NITIE and SOM are the top two colleges in India for operations and supply chain profiles with NITIE being the clear number 1.
- Long history and a huge batch size result in lots of senior supply chain managers from NITIE across various companies.
- On the other hand, though 20 years old, SOM was upgraded only recently, to 120 batch size from earlier 60.Students are getting to the top but SOM does not have the same presence as NITIE.
- NITIE has more recruiting companies with cushy pay packages as compared to SOM. Although SOM is improving its placement numbers rapidly.
- SOM does boast of elegant IIT B infrastructure and less batch size and hence, lesser competition due to smaller batches.
- But NITIE would give you more options in terms of placements.
So my preference order will be the following.
TISS (HR) > NITIE (Operations & SCM) > SJMSOM (Finance & others)
So, choose wisely based on your preferred domain. And in case you are interested in Marketing, both NITIE & SJMSOM are equally good.

Life at DTU is magical and surreal. It’s a rare experience and once you leave the college it will dawn on you how precious your time spent here was. The students live a carefree life here and pursue their passion alongside academics. DTU has given birth to many artists, musicians, singers, orators, dancers, writers, programmers, and athletes. Those who claim DTU students are bookworms have it wrong, as all kinds of talents are cultivated here.
To break the periodical monotony of campus life, frequent fests are held that are enough to increase the spirit tenfold. Engifest is one of the most awaited events in Delhi. The night events are vibrant and the students have the best days of their life during this fest. Another great event is the Literary Fest wherein you will be meeting well-reputed people in poetry, writing, and whatnot.
DTU even organized the Tomatina Fest in the form of a Color Run. You can explore the campus and find many eateries serving delicious food. The main canteen serves the tastiest samosas you have ever eaten while the Mic-mac canteen serves non-veg and Paranthas.
As for the academic life, it’s not very rigorous like other colleges. You can survive by doing self-study during exams. You will also enjoy the happening nightlife here.
