How is life at nit srinagar?

PS
Prerona Sarkar Posted On : September 20th, 2023
B.Tech in EE from National Institute of Technology, Agartala (2018)

I have spent four years as a B.Tech student at NIT Srinagar. Here are a few things about life at my college-

  1. Srinagar is amazing. The weather remains cold for most part of the year, so you’ll forget what average Indian summers feel like.
  2. NIT campus is fully secured, and surrounded by Dal Lake.
  3. During winter, everything is covered in snow. It is an absolutely mesmerizing view. 
  4. The hostels are clean and provided with all the facilities. 24*7 Wi-Fi facility is available. Mess is separate for each hostel, and the food is decent.
  5. Students depend mostly on self-studies. 
  6. Students are sent by the college to other Indian cities (for example, Ghaziabad) for industrial training purposes.
  7. You will be provided with decent sports and gym facilities. There are college clubs which you can join. The IIED Center offers opportunities for self-exploration.
  8. The placements are good, especially for CSE/IT. ECE, Mechanical, and CIV also enjoy good placements. Non-CSE/IT students usually sit for GATE or other competitive exams and perform well in them. 

NIT Srinagar is a wonderful college that offers a one-in-a-kind experience.

PGP in Management from Indian School of Business (Graduated 2018)

 ISB Hyderabad is one leading B Schools in the country and It was ranked number one in India and 44 globally in the top 100 Financial Times (FT) Executive MBA 2022 ranking.

The PGP program is the only full-time program at ISB Hyderabad and requires a work experience of a minimum of 2 years. ISB has 2 campuses namely Hyderabad and Mohali. You aren’t allotted any specific campus but get to experience campus life at both in a balanced manner. Even the placements are neutral and are held in one place only.

A major highlight of ISB is its Career Advancement Services Department which aims at attracting the best roles on campus. It brings in top firms like 

  • MS
  • Google
  • FB
  • MBB
  • ATK-Deloitte-PWC-E
  • Amazon
  • Accenture

Another major highlight is the visiting faculty that comes from world-class universities like Wharton, Kellogg, and Duke. These comprise 50% of the total faculty on campus and raise the standard of education at ISB through excellent pedagogy. Almost every faculty member is a Ph.D. holder and is required to publish a given number in international journals, regularly.

Compare these areas with other B Schools and then make your decision.

How is the life of a middle class student at the Manipal Institute of Technology?

SV
Shyam Verma Posted On : September 8th, 2023
Computer Science, and Engineering, MIT Manipal

I am assuming that you wish to know if the crowd at MIT is friendly. As a middle class student, even I was afraid of being left out while joining MIT. I feared that the students might have hierarchies of sorts, based on wealth and social status. 

As an introvert, it was especially difficult for me to approach my batchmates. But the cultural diversity of my batch made me curious to know each one of the students. 

To overcome my hesitation, I decided to go and talk to my batchmates during breaks. I admit that it's quite nerve wracking to approach a stranger and talk to them.

I was pleasantly surprised that everyone was very sweet and welcoming. None was rude or arrogant, instead, they were as willing as me to drive the conversation ahead. This gave me so much confidence that I kept increasing my network beyond my batch. 

Earlier, I looked at people as mere strangers. Now I noticed how different each person was. Everyone had their own stories and passions. 

Through my experience I wanted to tell you that you’ll meet some amazing people at MIT. Manipal Institute of Technology offers great exposure and personality development to its students. You won’t find groupism based on wealth. So, irrespective of your background, you’ll have a good time over here.

What is the worst thing about IIM Calcutta?

SJ
Siddhesh Joglekar Posted On : November 28th, 2022
MBA in Finance and Marketing, Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (Graduated 2011)

One lesser-known fact about IIM Calcutta is the unhygienic conditions caused by the dirty lakes surrounding it. Mostly this truth is underestimated. But the reality is the pictures of the lakes at IIM Calcutta are misleading. They are nothing near surreal or beautiful. If anything they are the brooding ground of mosquitoes. Snakes and other poisonous creatures are also present here. Anyone who comes in contact with its water is bound to get skin infection or other ailments.

These lakes have been used as a marketing element for IIM Calcutta and it’s shocking that people believe such lies.

How is life at VMMC for a med student?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 25th, 2023

The life of a medical student at VMMC is very hectic and full of chaos. 

  • It's one of the largest and oldest hospitals in India with Asia's largest OPD so you cannot ignore the heavy crowd during the day. However, after 4, the crowd subsides and you will see the campus is actually beautiful.
  • Its central location has its pros and cons. You have many places to shop around and hang out with friends. But the flip side is it has less area for sports facilities although there are badminton and volleyball courts.
  • There aren’t any strict attendance policies and the academic workload depends on you alone. Some prefer studying right before exams while some can be seen always engrossed in studies. 
  • The college has very approachable and helpful professors.
  • The Colleen promotes extracurriculars through cultural societies like Dance, Street play, Music, Fashion, etc. 
  • The mess operates 24/7 and serves fresh and hygienic food. Girls’ mess is much better than boys.
  • The seniors are very friendly and guide you throughout your first year. They give you books, and previous year's papers and also help you with every trivial matter.
  • The college is ragging free. 

Overall, the college environment is peaceful with occasional fun activities.

Is studying law at NLSIU a good option? Many of my friends dropped out of there saying it was very hectic and boring with no extracurricular.

SS
Shreya Satpati, Posted On : October 25th, 2021
B.A.LLB (Hons.) from National Law School of India University, Bangalore (2017)

It can be said that NLSIU is the best institute for law. Here are some reasons as to why.

  • The library at NLSIU is one of the biggest in the country. 
  • As far as extracurriculars are concerned, every trimester has something to offer. 
  • In the first semester, there's Spiritus which is the biggest sports fest among all the law schools with participation from more than 20–30 colleges. 
  • In the second trimester, there are Strawberry fields which is one of the biggest music festivals in the country with the participation of more than 60 bands from all over the country. 
  • Lastly, in every trimester there's also some sporting event within the campus like gully cricket league, football league, and basketball league, and so on. 
  • If you include debate moots, etc. it has so much to offer. 
  • In the third semester, a whole week is devoted to extracurriculars from dance to music to dress-up competitions, etc.

Studying at NLSIU is hectic but never boring and the statement about no extracurricular activities is false. There are so many extracurricular activities that you might sometimes get confused about which to take part in.

How is the mess food at BITS Pilani, Pilani campus?

SD
Shruti Dasgupta Posted On : August 5th, 2023
Student at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

BITS Pilani has the best mess food of any other institute in India. They fed us delicious food that felt homey. Students also have access to small shops nearby to satisfy their bellies. The students are given non-vegetarian food on all days except Tuesdays, and on some days they will get add-ons like ice cream and sweets. So do not worry about the food available here. BITS Pilani never disappoints you.
