Which is better, SOE or CUCEK in CUSAT?
I know a little about these courses as a few of my friends are currently pursuing them. Here are some of the information regarding SOE and CUCEK in CUSAT.
- There has been no report of difference in placements of both SOE and CUCEK in CUSAT.
- The education system and course curriculum have a little bit of difference but it basically revolves around the laboratory examination and infrastructure.
- The laboratory examinations are very serious and strict in SOE. The infrastructure is less developed for CUCEK.
- The campus of SOE is developed more than CUCEK although the location of CUCEK is very beautiful.
- The strength of CUCEK is less than SOE and this enhances peer learning. Due to fewer students in CUCEK, the students know each other and enjoy more. Students at SOE also have numerous enjoying moments but the students are divided into groups.
- SOE offers one of the famous programs that is Safety and Fire engineering. It has great recruiters and amazing placements.
- The departments such as Mechanical, IT, Electronics and CS at both of these are equally potent and good.
- For electrical and civil, SOE is better than CUCEK due to bad infrastructure at CUCEK.
- The major mass recruiters include TCS, Wipro, Aricent, Standard Chartered, L&t, etc.
If you have a better option than CUSAT then you should look for that option but if this is the only good option, then go for it.
How is nit calicut regarding placements in cse?
The placement cell of NIT Calicut is good and is equal to other IITs. The non-Indian companies offer more than 28 LPA to freshers unlike the Indian companies. So there always remains a misunderstanding among candidates about the salary package offered. They used to think most of the companies offer a 40 LPA salary package, but these only include the companies in the US. Even Google India, Codenation, Directi offer not more than 24 LPA to the students. Based on these salary packages offered we can see that placements at NIT Calicut are really good.

Why does BITS Pilani have such a low average CGPA?
Your grades don't necessarily determine your skills and capabilities. I have seen many low graders who are successful today thanks to the excellent exposure and opportunities they got at BITS Pilani. In fact, one of my friends even claims that BITS Pilani alumni have something charming about them that is missing in IITians. I attribute this to the splendid campus life of this institute.
Life here is so dynamic and indulging that without even realizing your personality is groomed and you become a different person when you graduate. A close friend of mine had a very low CGPA and had almost given up on MS or Ph.D. After working for a couple of years he finally apple for one and got selected in the US. He realized his BITS tag and the knowledge he gained there gave him an edge over other batchmates.
So yes grades do matter but only to a certain extent. Ultimately it is your hard work and consistency that makes you successful and stands apart from the crowd.
What is it like to study at South Asian University?

- Faculties- All the lecturers are well-qualified and more inclined towards research work.
- Academic environment- SAU gives you all possible facilities such as one-to-one interaction with faculties, study rooms, library, and good peer interaction.
- Brand value- SAU is a new university and growing at a slow pace with a few courses available.
- Culture- SAU celebrates a multi-culture environment as students of SAARC countries study and live together.
- Placements- SAU doesn't provide professional courses and does not have a placement cell. However, it provides a strong background to those interested in academics and research.
Hope this answers your question.

How does AIIMS Delhi treat a student who has cleared the AIIMS entrance exam on the 3rd attempt?

AIIMS Delhi just admits around 350 students over the period of 5 years leading to a family-like bond among all students. No one is outcasted or made to feel inferior just because of the number of attempts they took to clear the entrance. What matters is that eventually, you managed to get into AIIMS Delhi which in itself is a great feat.
It's better you discard such negative thoughts and focus on your studies with positivity.
