BTech in Mechanical Engineering, Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (Graduated 2020)

 As an Indian citizen, you cannot take admission in Thapar University without giving JEE Mains. However, if you are a foreign or NRI student, the admission criteria are separate and do not involve JEE Mains. For foreign or NRI students, the admission process is comparatively easier than for Indian students, so there is no need to worry about the criteria.

Thapar University has a separate admission process for foreign and NRI students, which involves fulfilling certain eligibility criteria, such as passing the qualifying exam with the required percentage of marks, and having a valid score in SAT or any equivalent examination. Moreover, if English is not your first language, you will need to provide proof of English proficiency through exams like IELTS or TOEFL.

Once you fulfill the eligibility criteria, you can apply for admission by submitting the application form online and paying the application fee. After the application process is complete, the university will release a merit list based on the eligibility criteria and your academic achievements. You will be notified if you are selected for admission, and further instructions will be given on how to complete the admission process.

In conclusion, if you are a foreign or NRI student, admission to Thapar University is possible without JEE Mains, as there are separate admission criteria that are relatively easier to fulfill. However, Indian citizens must give JEE Mains to be eligible for admission to the university.

What do I do to crack the NIMHANS entrance exam for a post-graduation in neurosurgery?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : September 30th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

NIMHANS conducts an online MCQ based entrance test for Mch/DM Neurology and MD Psychiatry. A common exam is held for all these courses, and later on, a separate merit list is published for each. You have to select your course while applying, and can’t change it later on. You can apply for all three courses or one/two of them. 

Here is some information on the entrance exam:

  1. It is a one-hour test with 150 MCQs.
  2. 1 mark is awarded for each correct answer, and ¼ mark is deducted for each wrong answer.
  3. 90-100 questions are asked from 19 MBBS subjects. These questions are not related to CNS. With good preparation for other PGMEE, you can answer them.
  4. Regular one-liner guidebook questions are asked.
  5. 50-60 MCQs are directly/indirectly related to CNS. For these, read the neuro aspect of all major subjects- Anatomy, Physio, Medicine, Psychiatry, Surgery, Patho, Micro, Pharma, Radio, and Anaesthesia. These questions are solvable given that you prepare well in the last 10-15 days before the exam.

The entrance is overall easy. However, the number of seats is very low, so the margin of error for silly mistakes is very low. 

Read all subjects before the last 10 days. Then, focus on the Neurology part in the last 10 days. By following these tips, you’ll successfully crack the NIMHANS entrance test.

If I take admission to IGNOU in January session when will my term-end exam be conducted?

AT
Anuradha Thakur Posted On : October 17th, 2022
MCA MAH MSW MPA MAPY MPS from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

If you enroll in the January session:

  • Yearly programs — You must submit your assignments by September 30th and your TEE by December 30th.

  • Semi-annual/semester programs — You must turn in your assignments by April 15th, and your TEE by June 30th.

If you enroll in the July session.

  • Yearly program—You must submit your assignments by March 31st, and your TEE in June.

  • Semi-annual/semester programs — You must turn in your assignments by October 15th, and your TEE in December.

IGNOU exams are held twice a year. In June and December. Occasionally, IGNOU extends the deadline.

There's one more thing to think about. Assignments for the July session and the January session (for the following year of that July session) are the same in IGNOU. Also, when you submit the assignments, make sure that they are the most recent available assignments for your course for the current year in which you are submitting them. For example, if you enrolled in January 2021 and did not complete the assignments in the first year, you must complete the newly available assignments for the next year, which are for the January 2022 session.

Do 12th grades matter in IIM?

SM
Sonal Mishra Posted On : April 27th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad

It depends on the particular IIM. IIM Indore places a lot of emphasis on class 12 scores while some IIMs like IIM Calcutta do not give much importance to past academic scores and solely evaluate you on the basis of your CAT scores.

It would be wrong to say that 12th grades don’t matter at all for admission to IIMs but yes they give you a bit of an advantage over those who have performed poorly in class 12th. Some IIMs give weightage to class 12th marks for shortlisting candidates for admission while some don't. But if you have scored well in CAT, your class 12th score does not matter much.

What is the admission procedure at Presidency University, Calcutta?

RP
Rashmi Pathak Posted On : June 23rd, 2021
Physics at Bethune College, (2019)

The admission procedure followed at Presidency University for Post Graduation is through the entrance examination. As per the government of West Bengal, 60% of seats are reserved for internal students. The rest of the seats are open to all students.

Departments like Political Science, English, History, and Physics conduct separate admission examinations. But for the finalized ranking, the examination scores and the aggregate percentage of board exams are taken and combined together.

Hindi and Philosophy departments consider the marks of the board examination. But, a final combination of the subject and the aggregate score is generally accepted to declare admission.

However, if you want to get further into the details about it, you can visit the webpage of the institute to run a check on how their admission process goes by and their subject-specific norms.

What can be done to crack the JEE (Advanced) and get into IIT-Bombay?

SB
Sumit Bose Posted On : March 18th, 2023
IIT Bombay (2019)

Don’t be fixed upon a certain agenda and keep your options open. If you will restrict yourself in such a way you might limit your options as well as the capacity to give your best.

Instead, I suggest that you try to analyze why exactly you want to pursue Engineering. Is it because of the sheep mentality or do you really want to build things?

Once you are sure, then figure out how exactly you will be achieving this goal. Set achievable goals for yourself and work sincerely on fulfilling them. Reward yourself for very little achievement on the way. This will gradually increase your confidence and pave the way to achieve much more.

However, a very important thing is to dream but not demand. That is you should be passionate about a certain thing but not fixated on it too much to the extent that if you fail to achieve it, you lose much more. So you can desire to pursue BTech in CSE at IIT Bombay but leave room for other options as well. 

Don’t stress yourself out too much and just concentrate on the present, your future will be visible sooner or later.

What should I study to clear NIMHANS entrance exam for M.Phil. in clinical psychology?

DS
Deeksha Seth, Posted On : September 30th, 2023
studied at National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences (2017)

In order to clear the NIMHANS entrance exam for M.Phil. In clinical psychology, you should be thorough in the basics of the syllabus prescribed for a PG in psychology. Consider studying topics like cognitive psychology, Biological basis of behavior, abnormal psychology, social psychology, and research methodology.

In reality, clearing the MPhil entrance is just a small step of the whole process. You should be mentally strong enough and have the ability to report to different people and tolerate their valid criticism. You will have to learn to work together with people from different disciplines, develop a passion for your patients, and spend long working hours including Saturdays. The bright side is, that you will be working with some of the highly intellectual people who will guide you to manage both academics and clinical work. 

I am sure, eventually, you will realize that all the efforts were worth the result!

MV
Mitanshi Vats Posted On : October 20th, 2022
MCA MAH MSW MPA MAPY MPS from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

You have two options for cancelling your admission.

  • Send an email to your local centre.

  • Visit the regional centre and request that your admission be cancelled.

  • To find the email address of your regional centre, simply login to IGNOU and select the view address option in the regional centre column.

You will receive information about your regional centres, such as their email address and phone number.

You must include the following information in your email.

  • Your name 

  • Your registration number

  • Your program's title

  • Attach your IGNOU ID and Aadhar card (or any other ID for identification, such as a voter ID) and explain why you are withdrawing.

If you are a new candidate who has not yet received your study materials, you will be refunded, but I have no idea if you are an old student. After cancelling your admission, it usually takes 15 to 20 days to receive your refund.

Another thing is that you must check your admission status on your own by logging in to your account because they do not notify you via email or text message.
