Did I do the right thing leaving NIT Rourkela and joining BITS Goa, considering the recent article?
All the three campuses of BITS, Pilani have been recognized as the Institutes of Eminence. The Goa campus is no exception and gets all the funds under the MHRD for any such purpose.
Getting back to your question of whether your decision was right or wrong varies. Something that may seem correct to you might not give the same feeling to someone else.
If you check out the ranks of engineering colleges in India, NIT Rourkela has a better ranking. But that does not mean that BITS Goa is bad.
Always remember that there is no such thing as a right or wrong decision. If you have made a certain decision, stick to it and try with all your might to make that work.

How is the CSE department at Haldia Institute of Technology? What about its faculty and placement in recent times?
Haldia Institute of Technology will be of no help to you if you dream to be the best at coding and be proud of yourself as a CSE graduate in the future.
- When it comes to placement, it is good. But, if you consider your learning and look at the knowledge that you acquire in four years, you will not be satisfied.
- Teaching is an art and most of the teachers lack this art at HIT. And, the rest are average. One of my friends attended HIT. During his time, the algorithm which is one of the most important topics was taught by a well-qualified professor. But, due to a lack of the art of teaching, the students lost interest in the subject.
- Lab classes are under par. The lab assistant throws tantrums as if he is the dean of the college. Also, most of the teachers are alumni of the college. You won’t find the academic environment very encouraging.
- No exposure. Even if it has been more than 15 years of the establishment of the college, it has failed to foresee Wipro, TCS, Infosys, CTS, and Tech Mahindra. This is quite unfair to the students who deserve more.
- The CSE department has talented students but the teachers, who shape these minds don’t put in the required effort.
Despite all these, the students have made it to fortune 500 companies such as SAP Labs, Broadcom, Intel Security, Manhattan Associates. All the credits go to their hark-work and sheer determination.
College gives you a degree, it is you who with your hard work and determination, will make a great CSE graduate.
Which is better, NSIT or DTU?
My friend had to choose between DTU CSE and NSIT CSE and eventually went for DTU CSE after considering the below points
- Brand name: DTU enjoys better recognition both inside and outside Delhi because of its rich legacy while NSIT is hardly known outside Delhi.
- Alumni Network: Being one of the oldest technical institutes it has an extensive alumni network whereas NSIT was established much later and its alumni pool is small.
- Placements: Both NSIT and DTU give an edge to each other in terms of placements and their average package is quite similar. DTU average package stands at INR 15.16 LPA while NSIT median package stands at INR 16 LPA. However, DTU has a larger batch size so maintaining this average package in itself proves that it's better.
- Location: NSIT enjoys a better location and has easy access to shopping centers and eateries. It also attracts a better crowd than DTU.
- Campus: DTU has a better maintained and facilitated campus than NSUT. NSIT has a lot of unused land which has become a breeding ground for wild animals.
- Sports Facility: DTU is a clear winner here with its huge sports complex and indoor Badminton courts.
- Research culture: Both colleges have poor research culture so if you are a research enthusiast, choose IIIT Delhi instead.
The ultimate decision depends on personal factors like distance from home and other inclinations.

- You will need bed sheets, pillows, and its covers, blankets, or a quilt for making your bed.

- Clothes for general wear and for college. It’s also best to pack some special clothes for some special occasions or college fests.

Which is better, IIM Lucknow or SJMSOM (IIT B)? I am from an ECE background with 3 years of IT experience.
SJMSOM at IIT B was founded in 1995, making it a relatively newer institution. But for a couple of years now, it has been making headlines because of some really outstanding profiles that were provided. Its core competencies are operations and supply chain management. There is no doubt that IIT B is the best choice if you want to work as a product manager. IIT B also has a beautiful campus with excellent facilities.
Additionally, it would give you the opportunity to take part in MOOD-I, the most significant cultural festival in all of Asia, which is held at IIT Bombay. With the well-known tech fests, there is another opportunity for you to participate. Furthermore, there are benefits to living in Mumbai. For guest lectures, the majority of the industry experts live nearby and are easily reachable.
IIM Lucknow was founded in 1984, so it has 11 batches more alumni than IIT B, resulting in approximately 3300 more alumni (considering 300 students per batch on average). It is also the fourth oldest IIM, following A, B, and C. You will gain a lot more industry experience, which will assist you in deciding what you truly want to do. In addition, IIM L offers better opportunities in Sales & Marketing, Consultancy, and BFSI than SJMSOM. Furthermore, you will be networking with a large number of students from all over the country and forming lifelong friendships. Furthermore, the IIM tag for a managerial position has an advantage over the IIT tag, which is still developing.
It would be fine if you went to IIM L, SJMSOM, or any other B school a few years later. When you switch from the first company you get after your placements, the new recruiters will be more interested in your work than in the college you attended. And the impact of your college's name gradually fades. What remains are the lessons you've learned and the memories you've made over the last two years.
Do a fresher have a chance to get into NMIMS?
Yes, there are equal chances of both freshers and experienced employees to get a seat in NMIMS. There are several aspects that a candidate needs to consider to get a chance in institutes like NMIMS, and some of them are listed below in points.
- Being a fresher or having some experience in the industry does not matter much. The main things that matter are the entrance scores, along with the candidate’s performance in group/case discussion and personal interviews.
- You should focus on your preparation for the entrance exams.
- During the interviews, it is good to have an interesting profile that you will discuss and showcase. So, internship and extra-curricular participation is a good thing for building a top-class resume.
- You should have a clear vision about your reason for pursuing an MBA, along with a detailed description of matters of interest like Finance, Marketing, HR, Operations, etc. The PI round mostly revolves around these aspects only.
- There are some institutes where academics play a very crucial role. But, that is not the case with NMIMS, giving very low weightage to academic results.
- In general, NMIMS gives 70% weightage to NMAT score, 15% to CD and PI scores, 5% to work experience, 5% in gender diversity, and 5% to academics.
- In the 2018-2020 batch, there were 27% freshers, which makes it quite evident the chances of freshers in the institute.
Therefore, freshers can definitely get a seat in NMIMS, provided they have the correct profile and perform well in the entrance, CD, and PI rounds.
What is better, B.Com (H) from SRCC, BMS from Shaheed Sukhdev or IPM from IIM Indore?
All of these are very good courses to pursue, but all of them are different from each other and have their own advantages. Let's have a look at all the courses.
- B.Com (Hons) from SRCC: This course is among the best for commerce and the alumni network of SRCC is very good. It will help the corporate industry and helps the students to secure a good job in a reputed company. The course curriculum of this college is of high standards and it will have a great impact on your personal growth and development.
- BMS from Shaheed Sukhdev: This is another popular course and is much better than many of the BBA courses. But it lacks behind other courses such as B.Com and IPM in terms of recognition and exposure in the industry.
- IPM from IIM Indore: It is a newly introduced course and there is not any alumni base. This makes it uncertain for some companies to visit during placements. The placement opportunities and the industry exposure available in this course are still unknown. But IPM can be a very good option for personal development.
These are a small introduction for all the courses, and now you can choose one from any of them according to priorities and requirements.
