There are two things you should be aware of: current arrears and arrears history. The current arrear is the one for which you have not yet cleared the paper at the time of placement. To put it simply, they are the unresolved papers you have in the seventh and eighth semesters, i.e. during the placement season.
The history of arrears is the one you cleared at the time of placement, but it will remain in your academic records. Every company has its own criteria for selecting candidates, but the majority of companies (say, 98%) will not hire a student who is currently in arrears. What's more, you wouldn't be able to attend even large IT companies.
So, to get to the point, having an arrear in the first semester will not affect your placements, but you should complete the paper by the sixth semester (for non-circuit branches) or the end of the second year (for circuit branches) as placements begin a little earlier, such as having internship opportunities in the third year in great companies such as Microsoft ( for CS and IT). If you are a mechanical engineer and have an arrear and clear it, you will be unable to attend some good companies such as Hyundai, Daimler(Benz), and others.
One of my friends suggested that Btech in biotechnology is much better than Bsc in Biotechnology at Amity University Noida Campus. It is one of the best branches in the area. The campus is really good, you will get a lot of labs to work on.
The faculties and professors are highly qualified and friendly as well. It totally depends on you as in how much you can take and learn from this college campus. If you are a bright student then you will gain a lot of knowledge and may get placed in good company while if you are an average student then you will have to work really hard to get the best opportunity. Although the faculties are very good you will get a lot of help from them.
Now coming to the placement part it has been suggested by my friend that Btech get good placements in comparison to Bsc students. The reason being they place Bsc students in some BPO companies while Btech students get better opportunities. But the placements are not 100% core placements. This means that you might also get placed in sales and marketing jobs as well depending upon your candidature. The college conducts campus placements for few IT companies only. It depends upon your capability and how you grab the opportunity fast.

For those who don’t get placements should always try for better internships. You can also start preparing for exams like GRE and GATE for further studies and trying for good companies. As a proactive student you should always try for various options as if you wait for 4 years and at the end you don’t get placed then you might be disappointed. You can also go for Msc in Biotechnology after completing Bsc in order to get good placements.

But if you solely want to join a college based on their placement records, go for any other college and not Rajdhani. If you think you will be able to get a job no matter the institution, then work hard in Rajdhani. You can later go for off-campus placements and secure a job role.
The placement support at NIT Calicut in Production Engineering is not up to par. Core companies like Tata Motors, NRF, etc. do not encourage students from Production Engineering to sit for the placement. They are not considered equivalent to mechanical engineering by the major recruiters.
One of my friends recently completed his PGDM from the Goa Institute of Management and told me that the placement Statistics of the institute are very misleading. GIM claims that big companies like Big FM, Grand Thornton, RB, and Zee Media visited the campus for placements but in reality, they never visited the campus. Many students were forced to opt out of placements so that they can show a 100% placement percentage in their placement reports. Moreover, you will have to pay so many fines that all your savings will dry up.
Earlier GIM was indeed a promising Institute but recently is on the verge of deterioration owing to the irresponsibility of the administration.
NLIU Bhopal doesn’t offer placements. Various recruiting companies visit the campus placement and hire candidates of their choice. The placement package depends on your skills and CV. 36 LPA is highly unlikely to receive. As par NLIU Bhopal placement highlights, the median CTC offered to BA LLB students is INR 14 LPA. For 2 year PG courses, the median CTC is INR 6 LPA.
IIM Udaipur has 305 students in the 2023 batch; around 71% of the batch included engineers and the rest 29% included students from Commerce, Science, Management, etc. Then there were 35% of freshers, including engineering freshmen and students from various other backgrounds.
Among the batch of 305 students, around 301 students appeared for the 2023 placement drive and all of them were placed. IIM Udaipur provides placement opportunities to both freshers and experienced people.
During the placement drive, some companies hire students with work experience only and some are open to hire freshers. Therefore the institute creates different batches for freshers and for students with work experience, so that both types of students can be placed.
After MBA, the students are placed in various sectors. So even if you are not from an engineering background, there are multiple job roles in sectors other than IT, Analytics and Manufacturing. The non-engineering students are eligible for job roles in sectors like BFSI, Consulting, E-commerce, Education, FMCG/ FMCD, Pharma/ Healthcare, etc. They are eligible for job roles in Consulting, Finance, General Management, Product Management, Sales & Marketing & Business Development.
Heritage Institute of Technology is a very popular and reputed engineering institute and provides very good facilities to its students. According to the reviews online, here’s what I got to know.
Hence, instead of taking admission in Heritage Institute of Technology for M.Tech in CSE, it will be better to prepare for GATE exam and qualify for IIT or else take admission in some other better colleges for M.Tech.
IIIT Kota is still in its early stages. Many of the institute's graduates are employed by companies such as Amazon, Wooqer, and Cvent. MNIT Jaipur participated in a joint placement program.

No, Manipal Institute of Technology does not have 100% placements. This year the placement percentage was recorded at 75.3% while last year it was 92.9%. None of the branches have 100% placement. But this should not be a demotivating factor because as long as you are willing to work on your dreams, you will succeed.
Branch-wise, the placement percentage of CSE/CCE/IT would be around 95% while for ECE it must be about 80–90%. The placement percentages of other branches are quite low but more than 50%.
Out of the entire branch, around 10% of the students go for higher studies and don’t sit for placements. MIT alumni have been admitted to prestigious foreign universities like Stanford, Berkeley, CMU, and many more. A few opt for off-campus placements while some become entrepreneurs or join their parent's businesses. Some even take a year's drop to prepare for some other exams like IAS, ICS, etc.
In all, MIT has opportunities for everything so you can put your worries to rest and stop focusing on placement figures only.
