My cousin belonged to the Mohali campus of ISB and during her exchange term, she observed and compared the pros and cons of both campuses. I have listed the major pros of both colleges.
ISB Hyderabad
ISB Mohali
ISB maintains a strict balance between both campuses and the placement statistics are a testament to that as no major differences can be observed.
Overall my cousin never regretted choosing Mohali over Hyderabad and recommends the same to everyone.
It's highly illogical to compare an institute of national importance namely MNIT Jaipur to an average engineering college in the same city, LNMIIT Jaipur. Here are some key differences between the institutes
It’s safe to conclude that MNIT Jaipur is incomparable to LNMIIT in any way and ranks better than LNMIIT.
For a BBA course, the college you choose would not matter a lot unless it offers decent on-campus placement opportunities. My cousin has pursued a course in BBA and as per his experience, he considers it to be a highly professional course. If you perform well throughout the course then you can for sure get recruited at a reputable firm after completion.
You have to put in the required efforts by yourself. If you are considering doing an MBA then good performance during your BBA will be helpful in the future.
Now coming to the colleges that you have mentioned in your question, I would recommend that you opt for a BBA program at IMS, Noida. I have a few friends from the institute and according to them, the BBA course is quite great. In the 2020 placements, the highest CTC offered by the institute was 12 LPA.
You can search about several other colleges that are situated in New Delhi or the NCR region. You can take a look at IP University, IMS Ghaziabad, and more such institutes to make sure that you go for the college that would prove to beneficial for your career.
If you're interested in TAPMI's BFSI-oriented course, it would be a good idea to speak with seniors of that particular program for more information. However, if you're considering TAPMI's PGDM program in general, it is a pretty good option.
Great Lakes Chennai's PGDM program is relatively new, but it's already picking up momentum. The average salary package for its second batch was around 8.75 lakhs, and companies like Coke, Airtel, Lava, Snapdeal, Amazon, HDFC, Axis, Kotak, and many others recruited from the program.
It's important to note that placements are just one aspect to consider when selecting a program. Great Lakes Chennai also boasts some of the best faculty and infrastructure in India, making it a great choice for those seeking a high-quality education.
Overall, it's important to research and considers all aspects of a program when deciding where to pursue your MBA, including the course offerings, faculty, infrastructure, and placement opportunities.
One of my friends from school is an alumnus of Great Lakes. According to him, the institute has a very good 1-year PGPM program.
There is not much difference between the faculty of Great Lakes and that of institutes like XLRI, IIMs, ISB, etc. Teachers from other countries also visit the campus. In addition to these, the methods of teaching are always being updated and enjoy high acceptance in the industry.
The following table gives a brief overview of the institutes:
Institute | Great Lakes | K J Somaiya Mumbai |
Fees | 16,95,2000 INR | 8,17,290 INR |
Average Package | 13 LPA | 10 LPA |
Top Recruiters | ADP, Cognizant, Happay, Hexaware, Manipal Business Solutions, Newgen Software, etc | Amazon , Citi, GEP, Infosys, Cognizant, ICICI, Capgemini, Infosys, JP Morgan |
Duration of course | 1 year | 15 months |
You can make decisions based on your preference of location, convenience, budget, etc. Thorough research goes a long way.
Both the institutions are highly renowned and offer good education in the field of Computer Science Engineering.
BITS Pilani offers better campus life and overall growth opportunities. Both the institutions offer equally good research facilities. The total course fee for CSE at NIT Surathkal is INR 5,73,820 while at BITS Pilani, it is INR 21,15,600.
During the 2022 placement season, the CSE branch at NIT Surathkal recorded the highest package of INR 45 LPA. The data for 2023 placements isn’t available as of yet.
At BITS Pilani, during the 2023 placement season, 104 students were placed from the IT branch. The CTC range stood at INR 11-38 LPA. Thus, both the colleges offer good placements for Computer Science Engineers.
If fees is a factor of concern for you, choose NIT Surathkal. Otherwise, both the colleges are a great choice for a CSE degree, and you won’t regret choosing any of them.
Both IMC Manipal as well as Mangalore have their own unique strengths and weaknesses. In terms of academics, both colleges are almost similar with some of the most experienced teachers, and excellent clinical exposure. The only major difference you will see is that KMC Mangalore has a dispersed campus so you have to travel through a city while you study. Mangalore therefore offers a more flexible life and offers an environment that helps you become a more independent person.
I would recommend Kasturba Medical College even over Government Institutes for MBBS training.
Anyone who has the chance to get admission to Thapar University should definitely prefer it to NIT Jalandhar. It’s one of the best private engineering colleges in India. However, Indians have many false notions regarding it just because of its high fees. In reality, Thapar University fees and BITS Pilani fees are more or less the same.
There are false rumors circulating regarding the Thapar University admission process and many claim that it’s not transparent and there are a lot of conspiracies involved. However, it’s just like any other private university, only better than others.
Thapar University's curriculum and faculty are excellent. So I will advise you to choose it unless you get the top 7–8 IITs, top 5 NITs, and BITS Pilani.
It depends upon what you think you will pursue as a career. Generally, there are transparent ways into monitoring whether or not an institute is really worthy, at least when considering the CSE department.
Categories | CSE at Jaypee Noida | CSE at NIT Goa |
Course Fee | 9.22 lakh | 5.38 akh |
Highest CTC | 20 LPA | 14 LPA |
Average CTC | 10 LPA | 7 PA |
Recruiting Companies | Adobe, Accenture, Cognizant, KPMG, etc. | Capgemini, Oracle, Wipro, IBM, etc. |
Therefore, these features go on to provide more compact comparisons among institutes and can possibly help you decide which institute is worthy. However, it is best to also research more about the prospects each institute shares; and how they are in terms of placement, faculty, etc.
KJ Somaiya is better than SK Somaiya. It ranks higher and is more reputed among students. If you have good grades, you should choose KJ Somaiya without thinking any further. KJ Somaiya has a great student crowd. So, the peer-to-peer learning opportunities are good.
The institute has a good placement record as well. KJ Somaiya placements 2022 had an average CTC of INR 10.9 LPA.
