Which would be better to take from NIT Trichy: instrumentation and control or production?
I know a little bit about ISI Kolkata since I have a few friends from the institute. Here is what you should know about the internships between semesters.
The course curriculum specifies that in the summer after completing your first year of M.Tech, you have to do an internship either in the industry or academia. You will have 3 options.
Industry:
- Many companies that visit the Campus for placements of 2nd-year students also select interns for the same.
- Some of such companies are Samsung Research Labs, Google, General Electric, Reliance, Flipkart, De Shaw, JP Morgan Chase, etc.
- The average stipend offered last year was 65,000 rupees/month.
- Some companies offer more than 1 lakh/month. One of my friends interned at Samsung Research Labs.
Academia:
- As per ISI guidelines, you need to pursue an internship at a different academic Institute or industry.
- A friend of mine went to NUS Singapore, while two others went to a university in Germany. You can also apply to other institutes in Japan, USA, and Europe. People also go to IITs, CMI, and other Tier-1 Institutes of India.
Within ISI:
If for some reason you could not get an internship in the above-mentioned ways, you can approach any of the 250+ faculty members across all 5 ISI‘s and can ask to work with them in their labs.
You will have internships at the end of the first year. In the second year, you will have placements, dissertation, academics. So, the only time left to do an additional internship is the winter break after the first sem. Unless you are extremely enthusiastic, I will suggest that you take a break during this period. Because after the break you will be swamped with coursework for 1.5 years.
Which B-school should I go EMPI Business School or NDIM?
EMPI Business School is the better choice, considering several factors such as curriculum, facilities, the atmosphere inside the campus, etc. The points below give a brief overview of the B-school and its advantages:
- There is good interaction with alumni at EMPI Business School, which is very much beneficial for the students about the institute and industrial insights.
- Most students are quite satisfied with the institute’s overall facilities and atmosphere, considering it a good place to study MBA.
- The staff is very helpful to the students in every manner. The institute has designed its facilities quite well, taking the students’ benefits into account.
- EMPI is a residential institute, having all the living facilities inside the campus itself. It is considered to be a very good place for studious candidates.
- The curriculum followed by EMPI is very well framed. Apart from its normal classes, several competitions are made a part of the curriculum. These competitions are helpful for students to develop interpersonal communication skills and perform presentations in front of large crowds too.
- There are industrial trips and excursions organized by the institute for providing industrial exposure to students. They are sent to mega plants and industries, for example- Yakult.
Therefore, considering the reviews from full-time EMPI students, it is definitely a good choice, providing an all round development in the management degree.

University:
- KJSCE is an autonomous institute, but VESIT is under Mumbai University so the former has an upper hand.
- This autonomous identity of Kjsce helps to better design academics. Additionally, it allows the college administration to control the entire exam procedure, which is much better than Mumbai University.
- Besides, the students also get an opportunity to do internships in the reputed MNCs, with a longer vacation. It looks good on the resume.
Sports:
There is no comparison of KJSCE with VESIT, as the previous one has an extraordinary football turf. This institute also has a good badminton court and a running track.
Campus: Except for the campus of IITB, KJSCE probably has the biggest campus in Mumbai.
Both of these are pretty good options so choose according to your convenience.
Which is the best, RMK Engineering College or Rajalakshmi Engineering College?
In terms of teaching, both Rajalakshmi Engineering College and RMK are good. The faculty is well qualified who are dynamic and many of them are Ph.D holders. REC is good in terms of exposure and extra co-curricular activities, compare to RMK.
RMK has a mess in which you get good non-veg food with desserts along with tea and snacks in the evening. But REC has 3-4 canteens inside and outside which gives you good quality of food but the only negative point is that they don't serve non-veg food.
REC is lenient when compared with RMK in terms of dress code, communicating with your classmates, using phones and laptops. Campus ambiance is good in both REC and RMK. Now the REC campus has been renovated and it has more greenery when compared to past days.
In terms of placement at RMK, you will get several opportunities for IT companies and limited offers for civil and mechanical. REC provides a lot of training programs and ensures that each student gets placed. Some of the recruiters are TATA, WIPRO and the list goes on.
If you have options to pursue an MBBS in AIIMS Bhubaneswar or JIPMER, Puducherry, which college would you prefer now?
Both JIPMER and AIIMS Bhubaneswar are equally good in terms of infrastructure and academics. While JIPMER has a magnificent campus, AIIMS Bhubaneswar buildings are more modern because of recent construction. Overall, there aren't many differences between the 2 institutes. The academics, infrastructure, and hostel facilities are somewhat similar. but if I was in your place, I would have chosen JIPMER, Puducherry for UG over AIIMS Bhubaneswar. While this may surprise many, I have logical reasons to support my stance. The one solid reason why I chose JIPMER was the beauty and the places to explore.
- The breakfast shops in Auroville
- The Rocky Beach with moonlight shimmering on the water.
- The Le Cafe
- Villa Shanti
- Villa Helena, Celine’s Kitchen, DisDis&Co, Satsunga, Le Club, Rendezvous, Villa Krish, Coromandel Cafe, and many more.
- A pretty resort, Ocean Spray
While some might find it illogical to prefer a certain institute just because of the restaurants near it, for me it certainly is a valid point. As a medical student, it’s very important to take breaks and these beautiful places will surely take you to a different world.
However, JIPMER is suitable only for UG. For PG, AIIMS Bhubaneswar is the best option because the language barrier is a major problem in the South.
Overall, JIPMER is an excellent option for UG while AIIMS Bhubaneswar can be preferred for PG,
Which is most popular in India: The Delhi University or the Calcutta University?
Among these, Calcutta University is better. The university sets the most difficult question papers. You need to put in a lot of effort to score even 60 percent. With the same amount of effort, you can score 80 percent in DU.
Naturally, CU puts emphasis on in-depth learning. CU students have a more academic-oriented life. While students of DU have the freedom to carry out secondary endeavors.
Which is better, NIET or GL Bajaj?
I studied at NIET, and my close friend chose GL Bajaj. So I know the ground reality of both these colleges.
In terms of placements and academics, both are the same. However, GL Bajaj has quite strict rules. It follows a dress code and is way more strict regarding attendance. Even if you are 5 minutes late, the main entrance won’t be opened for you. Ultimately, you’ll end up waiting outside for an hour or so. Also, you won’t be able to take leaves without prior permission from concerned authorities.
NIET does not have such strict rules and regulations. It offers a much more free environment.
So if you want more freedom, GL Bajaj is the right college. For placements and studies, both are at par with one another.
Which is better for a B.Tech, CET BBSR or VSSUT Burla?
Here are some details about both these colleges-
VSSUT holds a strong reputation in Orissa, but CET isn’t that popular. One reason being that there are plenty of Engineering institutes in Bhubaneswar. VSSUT offers better placement prospects than CET. Even though CET receives more companies due to its favorable location, VSSUT receives more job offers.
VSSUT is quite old, and has a rich legacy. CET is also old, but comparatively new. The location of CET allows easy access to coaching centers, and offers more facilities for extracurriculars.
Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. You can choose between the two based on your preferences and goals.
How does IIM Indore and IIM Kozhikode compare head to head on placements?
IIM Indore and IIM Kozhikode are very similar to each other in most aspects, including placements.
But the main issue is IIM Indore’s huge batch size. IIM Indore admits almost double the MBA students as compared to IIM Kozhikode. This leads to immense competition among its students, even though Indore has an advantage over Kozhikode in terms of its recruiter numbers and profiles.
Apart from placements, a huge student intake places a lot of burden on the infrastructure and faculty at IIM Indore. The faculty to students ratio is better at IIM Kozhikode. But IIM Indore enjoys great connectivity, which IIM Kozhikode does not.
Both of them are highly prestigious business schools in India, and you shouldn’t just consider placements while choosing between them. Moreover, the market conditions can hugely affect the placements of a college for a certain year. Its impact may differ from one college to another.
