What things should I do in order to get into IIM Ahmedabad? I am a second-year mechanical engineering student, scored 96.4% in 10th and 75% in 12th.
Unfortunately, you can’t get into IIM Ahmedabad as they look for students with an exceptional academic record.
If you belong to the general category, your 12th score is insufficient to get you an interview call. A general engineering male student with less than 90 percent in 12th will have to get 100 percentile in CAT to even expect a call from IIM Ahmedabad.
Good MBA colleges like IIMC and FMS do not heavily rely on the 12th scores. But even IIMC requires an 80 percentile in 12th, or else, at least 99.99 percentile in CAT. A friend of mine scored 72% in his 12th, and a 99.98 percentile in his CAT. But he didn’t receive an interview call simply because of his 12th score.
The competition is especially harsh for engineers as IIM Ahmedabad tries to intake students from diverse educational backgrounds.
Do not be disheartened and research the requirements of other top Business Schools for your MBA.

Other than performing well in placements, the students of B.Tech CSE at IIT Bhubaneswar get to be a part of various interesting clubs and societies. These are- The Robotics and Intelligent Systems Club (RISC), Web and Design Society (WebnD), and Neuromancers (The Programming Society).
These clubs and societies allow students to indulge in the fields of robotics, web development and programming by interacting with others and working on interesting projects.
Based on my personal experience, I can assure you that B.Tech CSE at IIT Bhubaneswar is a good choice. However, I can not comment on the other institutions/courses as I have not been a part of them.
Which one is better: IIT Kanpur civil, IIT Guwahati or IIT BHU mechanical?
If you are certain about your branch choice, then go for Civil at IIT Kanpur. If you aren’t sure about the branch then choosing IIT Kanpur among these three IITs will be better. In 2021, NIRF ranked IIT Kanpur #6 in the country. Although it’s not easy you can change your branch after a year. But you can’t change your college.
Which is better at DTU, Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering?
If you are interested in the Mechanical branch, you should definitely go for DTU Mechanical. DTU has one of the best Mechanical departments in the country. There are many tech teams and societies for the branch. Tech teams such as Defianz Racing, AUV DTU, UAS DTU, etc. even participated in competitions of international levels and won.
The placement records are also good for the branch. Many PSUs frequently visit the campus placement to recruit students. The highlights of DTU Mechanical Engineering placements show the average package to be INR 7 LPA. ONGC, Mahindra, etc. are among the top recruiting companies.

Is CGC Landran a good college for a B. tech in the mechanical stream in terms of placements?
CGC Landran has a good reputation and is better known for placements of CSE/IT/ECE (IT Sector related streams). Mechanical stream placement of the college is averagely rated. The institute offers training for placement to its students.
-
Few core companies visit for the mechanical branch. The college claims that Mechanical branch recruiters like Bajaj and Mahindra and Mahindra visit their campus but the number of placements from these companies is low.
-
The average placement package of B. tech 2019 batch is 4.5 LPA and 1-2 students from a batch of 80 got packages of more than 9 lakh in IT-related branches. Most students in non-IT related branches land 3-4 LPA jobs.
-
Many students of mechanical branches here study coding to get placed in the IT Sector.
Placements Statistics:
-
The 2018-19 placement records have shown that 40-50% of students from the Mechanical department, among the eligible, were placed with median packages between 3 to 4 LPA. The year 2017-18 had shown almost the same results previously.
-
Most of these placements are in non-core sectors.
At last, if a student is skilful and has knowledge at par with the concerned industry standard then they will surely find good placement irrespective of college. There are some examples of students who did outstanding and got placed in top mechanical core companies like Royal Enfield, Mahindra & Mahindra and Bajaj.
