Both GATE and IIT JEE are difficult. The selection rate is comparably less for IIT JEE, as millions of students take the examination each year.
In GATE, you will appear for your branch of study, so it is easier in that respect. But scoring well is difficult, especially for branches like CSE, EEE, etc.
In terms of syllabus, IIT JEE covers more subjects. Although the number of subjects is less in GATE, you need to have in-depth knowledge to score under 1000.
Overall, GATE has a less competitive environment, but it has its fair share of difficulties.
One of my close friends graduated from NMIMS and here are some facts for you according to her experience.
The NPAT exam is for undergraduate students for BBA and other courses. The admissions to NMIMS for MBA happens based on NMAT and CD/ PI. The seats in NMIMS are increasing so, the placements will be difficult for the complete batch.
The faculty and the course are good, the only drawback being the large batch size. If you can perform well, you should have no fear and be confident.
Particulars | Stats |
Total fees (for BBA) | 4.54 - 31.38 Lakhs |
Total fees (for MBA) | 69,000- 31.38 Lakhs |
Whether it's worth it or not completely depends on your aspirations, background, and comparable B-schools in hand, but know that NMIMS is one of the top B-schools among the B-schools in India.
The entrance examination of Karunya University is not at all tough to crack. You just need to be thorough with the class 12th syllabus. General ethics might create a bit of a problem because of insufficient data, apart from that it is very easy. My brother wrote the test in 2016 and scored 326.
The selection process of the university is quite lenient. Try to secure a rank below 500, and you are good to go. There is nothing to panic about the test.
During the admission process, based on ranks the students are called. If you have a rank above 1200 then you might not get the department of your choice.
Pharmacology is the subject of understanding pathology and the required drugs. KD Tripathi is the best book for it. Each chapter in KDT has an initial part related to diseases and then there are strategies given to treat them. Most of the concepts are explained quite clearly and in a format which can be written in examinations.
Whereas, Shanbag explains a lot of the concepts in a much simpler way and students score well in examinations. However, there are mistakes that are mostly corrected in KDT. Initially, it can be difficult to read chapters from KDT. But eventually, you will get used to it.
So, I will advise you to use KDT as standard and use Shanbag as a reference. Also, make sure to correct the wrongly mentioned things during reading.
Yes, CUSAT examination is difficult. But if you prepare the syllabus well, it’s not difficult to score. The examination covers more questions from Maths. The questions are usually basic. So, it will be better if you focus on Maths more while preparing. Solve the basic questions from each chapter.
For the Physics section, most of the questions are based on concepts. Most of the numerical is formula-based.
NCERT books will be enough for Chemistry.
The entrance examination conducted by Karunya University is not that difficult. My friend scored 80 marks in the JEE Main examinations. The syllabus includes a few additional topics that are not included in the curriculum of classes 11th and 12th in the Indian education system.
He attempted the examination and started with the section of mathematics. After he attempted a few questions from the mathematics sections, he moved to the physics section. He was not able to crack the solutions for many of the questions from the section of physics. However, He still kept trying and successfully solved around 70 percent of the questions from Physics. For his set, the section of Chemistry was extremely difficult. He attempted 50% of the questions from the Chemistry section.
The next section he attempted was of logical reasoning. He solved all the questions from this section leaving out around 1-2 questions. Then he continued his examination with the Ethics section. He answered 2 questions out of 10 and from them one was a guess.
He found the examination to be pretty easy. He later found out from someone that only students who have secured a rank above 1000 in the examination would be considered for the admission process of the university.
Yes, you are eligible to appear for the UPSC examination after completing a B Sc degree from Nalanda Open University. There are certain criteria that you need to keep in mind while checking your eligibility. Firstly, the university should be recognized by the central government and UGC as well. So, Nalanda Open University is recognized. Next, you need to pass your graduation exams properly so that you can earn your degree without any backlogs.
You also need to be thorough with the NCERT books for the UPSC exam and stay updated with current affairs. Also, the degree doesn’t matter as much. You can graduate in any field and still appear for UPSC.
IIM Indore conducts an entrance exam called IPMAT (IPM Aptitude Test) for inducting students in its 5-year Integrated Program in Management (IPM) course, the form for which is usually released in the month of May each year.
The test has three sections, i.e. Quantitative Ability (MCQ), Quantitative Ability (Short Answer), and Verbal Ability (VA). So naturally Mathematics and English are the two subjects you should focus on to ace the exam. In mathematics topics such as probability, trigonometry, mensuration topics such as area, volume and perimeter should be your top priority. A good grip on class 10 mathematics will definitely help you.
In English, you need to be proficient in the language. Grammar, reading comprehension through paragraphs, and punctuations are some of the most important topics to cover in the language section. I hope if you practice enough, you can easily cross the cutoff of the test.
Comparing competitive exams or choosing one over the other is a very illogical thing to do. The entire agenda behind a competitive exam is to build your knowledge and test you on the basis of the same. So unless you defer from gaining the right set of knowledge, any competitive exam will bear the same result.
I have a very effective technique to tackle this issue. Prepare in such a way that you are appearing for JEE Advanced. This is because the course and structure of Advanced are such that once you are ready to clear that, you can clear every other exam too. This means your focus will not be divided and all you can do is focus on one exam.
Keep focusing on the preparation for JEE Advanced and when your BITSAT is around the corner start solving mock tests to improve your speed. Prepare additionally for English and Logical Reasoning questions. BITSAT focuses more on your speed than the clarity of your concepts. So a mere preparation of 3 months before BITSAT is more than enough provided that your concepts are clear from JEE Advanced preparation.
So instead of choosing one single exam, prepare for JEE Advanced and target both as the future is unpredictable.
JEE Mains is the most difficult, followed by BITSAT and VITEEE, respectively. Every year, millions of students appear in JEE Main. While the number of seats available in old IIT and NIT is somewhere around 30,000. So, the selection ratio is around 0.025. This is why JEE Main is the most difficult compared to BITSAT and VITEEE.
BITSAT is easier than JEE Main, but the time constraint is a major challenge. VITEEE is the simplest out of these three and easier to score good marks.
