B.Tech in Delhi Technological University, Bachelor of Technology in Civil Engineering (2015)

There are many coaching centers throughout the country for IES and GATE coaching. However, these 2 institutes enjoy a huge reputation and recognition at the national level due to their experienced faculty and their study material quality.

Made Easy:

  • It is one of the best in the field when it comes to GATE and IES coaching. They have the best faculty teaching the subjects for the students. 
  • Their specialty lies in their high quality and concise presentation.
  • One of my friends enrolled in the Delhi center weekend coaching program, which he claimed to be good.
  • Their online test series is one of the best you can opt for. They are prepared keeping the present pattern in mind. The number of students enrolled is hefty and gives you a clear picture of the competition.
  • Some criticize that their teaching lacks depth compared to other institutes. Their courses and tests require analytical knowledge and are more than enough to crack GATE/IES exams.

IES Masters:

  • This institute is one of the best in this field and has earned respect for its excellence and quality coaching within a short span of its inception.
  • All the major subjects for all batches are handled by Mr. Kanchan Thakur who is the director of the institute. He has a brilliant command over all the subjects in Civil engineering.
  • The study material of this institute is best and is even recommended for those who choose civil engineering as an optional subject in UPSC exams.
  • One small setback is that other faculties than the director are not on par when compared with the faculties of Made Easy.

For the GATE Online test series, you can opt for Made easy test series, and for the IES test series you can opt for IES Masters. If you plan to join made easy to enroll in Super Talent Batch which has all top faculties teaching in this batch.

For Classroom coaching for civil engineering in GATE/IES, Super talent batch can be preferred if not then IES Masters. For Postal study course, one can opt for IES masters.

In Allahabad, Gateforum is pretty reputed among GATE/IES aspirants. But the coaching goes on for long hours. You will be exhausted by the time, all the classes are done. If you can cope with their hectic schedule, go for it. Mechasoft is another coaching that you can check out.

What is the weightage given to previous academic records by XLRI, FMS, and IIFT during admission process?

ST
Shubham Tiwari Posted On : May 27th, 2021
studied at Xavier School of Management

IIFT Delhi does not give weightage to your performance in academics. Your admission will mainly depend on how well you perform in the written exam and GD-PI WAT. The entrance exam carries a weightage of around 65%, however, final admission will be given on cut-off. 

As far as XLRI is concerned, the GP-PI call is highly based on what percentile you land up within the XAT. The cutoff is 95 percentile for the BM program and 93 percentile for HRM for male candidates. For females, this is 93 percentile for BM and 91 for the HRM program. But, when the college prepares the final merit list, 5% weightage is also given to past academics.

Overall, it is advisable to have a minimum of 60% score in your graduate exams so it does not hinder your future plans.

Which College should I Choose? VGEC, LJ, Charusat, MSU, or DDU?

CS
Chandrima Sethia Posted On : October 13th, 2021
Studied at Vishwakarma Government Engineering College (2016)

One of my friends studied from VGEC. According to him, the institute is not worth taking admission as branches such as IT and CS are also not good here. MSU and DDU are both really good colleges. The colleges are well known.

  • There hasn’t been any major change in the institution of VGEC in recent years. 
  • Although, the aspirants may look for a second opinion from any recently studying student of this college.
  • The placements of both MSU and DDU are good. 
  • Both of them can’t be ranked, as they both are equally good. 
  • As MSU is located in Baroda, it gives a slight edge as there are a lot of companies in Baroda. 
  • The IT market at Nadiad is not so flourished, thus placement can be unsure at DDU Nadiad. 
  • Baroda on the other hand, has some really good IT companies, both product and service based.

One good thing is that both MSU and DDU are deemed. The campus is really good. The teaching faculties are extremely supportive. There are lots of examinations conducted, thus students need to work really hard.

DK
Dheeraj Kumar Posted On : August 31st, 2021
Studied at Chaitanya Bharathi Institute of Technology

The colleges can be arranged in terms of their campus size as follows:

  1. CBIT: The campus is spread across an area of 50-75 acres. In addition to that, Chaitanya Bharathi Educational Society has bought land opposite the college which is about 100 acres.
  2. VNR: The campus is about 50 acres.
  3. SNIST: The campus is built in about 33 acres of land as claimed by the college even though it seems to be pretty small.
  4. VASAVI: The college campus is spread across an area of 13 acres.

The quality of teaching matter will eventually matter rather than the campus area of a college. You must choose wisely.

Who can rate CAT, XAT, SNAP, IIFT, MICAT, TISS, or NMAT in terms of difficulty level?

RS
Rishi Sen Posted On : February 1st, 2021
PGDM Marketing and Finance, Institute of Management and Technology, Hyderabad (2021)

Among all these examinations, XAT is most difficult, followed by CAT. The difficulty level of the exams, in descending order (most difficult to easy) is XAT> CAT> IIFT> SNAP> TISS> NMAT.

Now, let us dive into a detailed analysis behind the assigned ranks and the difficulty level.

IIFT

  • The questions asked in IIFT are a mixture of moderate and difficult. 
  • The struggle lies in the attainment of marks within the cut-off range, both total cut-off and individual section cut-off. 
  • Therefore, the students have no option but to perform exceedingly well in all sections, GK included. 
  • The acceptance rate of IIFT is comparably low, only 400 students get admitted out of 50000 students.

SNAP – 

  • The entrance exam is easy but the tough part is to score marks that will be eligible for admission into Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru, or SCHMID branch. 
  • These are the branches which are of good quality, unlike the rest of them.

TISS

  • The exam pattern of TISS is easy but the GK section is the most dangerous part among them. 
  • The questions asked in the GK section comprise both general knowledge and current affairs, therefore the portions are cover is endless.

NMAT

  • NMAT exam can be successfully cleared with proper preparation. The questions asked are conceptually based. 
  • No negative marks are given for wrong answers, hence the students are free to attempt all the questions fearlessly. 

MICAT is pretty easy. If you want a career in brand marketing and advertising it is necessary. 

Therefore, from the above discussion, you can estimate the logic behind ranking the difficulty level of exams.

Can I prepare for JEE and IIM Indore IPM at the same time?

DD
Divya Dhara Posted On : August 27th, 2021
Studied at Symbiosis Centre for Management Studies, Pune (2019)

After doing my research about this on the internet, I can say that JEE and IPM are very different. Here are some things you should know about before making any decision.

  • If you are planning to join an engineering college, you should know that the JEE is the sole criteria for it along with your marks from your boards. 
  • This exam will cover the most essential topics you need and you should be ready to give other entrances with the prep for JEE. 
  • If you do well in the JEE, you will get into a promising engineering college.
  • When it comes to IPM IIM Indore, let me tell you that the course you are looking at is an integrated course initiated by the college. 
  • The entrance test will include all the topics you will have studied in your higher secondary books. 
  • You can also prepare for English and logic-based questions.
  • If you will be preparing for JEE, you shall be prepared for chemistry, math, and physics for sure as these subjects will overlap with the IPM entrance exam and could be easier in this test.
  • As far as languages are concerned, if you have good command of English, you are good to go.

JEE will help you enroll in an engineering course whereas you will enter into the field of management if you score well on the IPM. It finally boils down to your interests.

How difficult is it to get a loan for IMT Ghaziabad, MDI, MDI, IMI Delhi, or TAPMI?

DS
Deepak Saha Posted On : July 15th, 2021
Studied PGDM in Finance & Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance at International Management Institute (2019)

All the mentioned institutes are prestigious B-Schools of India apart from IIMs. The admission process in these institutes might be competitive. But getting a loan from a Nationalized Bank, once you secure a seat in any of them, is pretty simple.

There is a scheme by the central government called “Vidhya Dhanush (Vidya Lakshmi)” under which IMI, MDI, TAPMI, and IMT are Elite B-Schools. The highlights of the scheme are below.

  • The subsidized rate of interest on the loan is from 8.3% to 8.5% per annum.
  • There is no requirement for collateral.
  • It is an unsecured loan for a maximum of INR 3.5 crores.

My friend availed a loan from Canara Bank at a similar rate. You can consult with different banks to know more about their interest rates, special schemes, or eligibility based on your targeted B-School.

Another way to avail loan is through partnered banks of your institute. Usually, the nationalized banks nearby your institute have collaborations with it. All institutes do inform about the Education Loan scheme of the selected candidates. Here, the advantage is that the paperwork is fast and hassle-free.

In the end, it is the best idea to avail loan from the central government scheme. It is simpler to get an education loan, but you need to be vigilant while choosing among different options from multiple banks.
