What should be my best pick, CSE at MNIT Jaipur or IT at MNNIT Allahabad?
Both the colleges are well-renowned. But there are certain things I would like to bring to your notice-
As per college rankings, MNNIT is the top NIT in North India. It witnesses very good placements in IT/CSE. The average package for IT is almost at par with that for CSE. This year, the average package was around 24 LPA for IT and 27 LPA for CSE. The CSE students at MNIT Jaipur receive comparatively way lower packages.
At MNNIT, CS, and IT students have the same curriculum till 2nd year. Even after the 2nd year, only 1 or 2 subjects are different. The coding culture is great, and coders perform really well on various platforms like CodeChef, HackerEarth, Hackerrank, etc.
I would recommend you choose IT at MNNIT Allahabad.
Does MNNIT Allahabad provide single rooms for freshers?
B.Tech first year boys get a three seater room at MNNIT Allahabad. The boys’ hostel for freshers is SVBH Mega Hostel. It is the newest and best boys’ hostel of MNNIT.
It is seven-storied, and has over 250 rooms and 2 messes. For the initial months, freshers are given a lot of attention, and the hostel security is alert 24*7. The hostel canteen serves poor quality food, and does not function most of the time. The best resort is to go to senior canteens or nearby areas for better food. The SVBH hostel also has a general store inside it. There you can buy stationary and other basic necessities.
The mess food is below average. Even though you’ll get a three seater room, it will be spacious and clean. Each room contains three beds, three cupboards and an extra study room with three table-chairs.
Only the final year B.Tech boys get a single room at MNNIT.
Which one is a better option for an MCA, MNNIT Allahabad or JNU New Delhi?
JNU conducts the toughest entrance for MCA. Its faculty and environment are ideal for this degree. MNNIT Allahabad is a good institute, but its MCA is not comparable to JNU.
However, JNU does not have a concrete curriculum for its MCA entrance. Its entrance is conducted in a non serious manner, and the paper is difficult to crack. Moreover, it has a lot of reservations and quotas, even on such limited seats.
On the other hand, NIMCET is conducted in an organized manner, and its paper is easy to understand. The syllabus and blueprints are made available on the official website for good preparation.
Despite all this, JNU has a very professional education system. It does not offer any placements, but you’ll get good exposure on campus and land a job on your own. The MCA faculty is highly experienced, but I am not well aware of the university’s infrastructure.
Talking of MNNIT Allahabad, it is a highly reputed NIT with a good placement record. Its campus is completely ragging free, and the environment is strict on academics. But its hostels aren’t in a good shape.
I would suggest JNU New Delhi for an MCA, but even MNNIT is a decent choice.
Is there any scope of doing an M.Tech in Applied Mechanics from MNNIT Allahabad?
I have a few friends pursuing MTech Applied Mechanics from MNNIT Allahabad. According to their review, the Department of Applied Mechanics at MNNIT is known for its rigid and research-oriented teachers.
If you plan to complete a Ph.D. and further studies after M.tech then this course is a good option.

However, if you are opting for MTech just to prepare for BTech level competitive examinations, then it will be better not to choose this department.
MTech students do get placement offers in the on-campus placement drive. If you work hard and maintain good grades, you are likely to secure a placement offer. Many private companies visit the campus for placement drives. Securing a placement offer depends more on your effort.
Should I take production engineering at MNNIT Allahabad and try for a branch change or should I take CS in NIT Raipur?
There will be a handful of seats available for branch change and branch modifications do not only occur when you fill in a form. You will have other brilliant and ambitious students to compete with.
Choosing the right branch:
If you are facing trouble choosing the right branch, you should remember the following things.
- Don’t opt for a branch just because of the higher CTC, or college brand name, etc. Because the degree you will get is for life. So, make sure you are interested to work in the field that you are choosing.
- Also, go through the syllabus given on the official website and see if you can do the coursework for the branch of your choosing.
The table below gives a brief overview of the two courses.

My brother was a student of MNNIT Allahabad and for his 1st year, the highest CGPA was 9.67, while many scored 9. So, the chances of branch upgradation are quite slim.
Which one should I choose, IT in Surathkal or MNNIT, Allahabad?
MNNIT Allahabad offers similar opportunities for IT and CSE branches. Other than a few subjects, the curriculum, faculty, and career opportunities are more or less the same for NIT Allahabad.
Though Surathkal is promising a better university life with beaches and all.
NIT Allahabad houses one of the country's biggest and brightest CSE departments. Here you're getting a good, competitive, and coding-oriented environment. Seniors are very supportive and the course is good. But the location is quite remote so if you belong to a metro city, you will be disappointed with the city life.
In terms of placements, both institutes are almost on the same level.

Another important aspect you can factor in while choosing is the distance of the institute from your home and choose the nearlest.
How did Mr. Abhinandan become one of the best coders from Allahabad? What is he like in real life?
Here is some information about Abhinandan, one of the best coders from our college. I was told all this by one of his friends.
Abhinandan Agarwal did not become the best over time, rather he was born like that. He was a child prodigy and wrote his first code at merely eight years of age in the language Brainfuck. He wrote it to multiply two numbers. At the time, his homework contained multiplication questions. He had to multiply large numbers, and thought it was too mainstream to complete this task manually.
He is a down to earth, humble and modest individual. He is a helpful and loyal friend. His mannerisms and behavior makes him very likable, just like a guy next door. He has good management skills, and is a very hardworking and dedicated person.
I hope he achieves a lot more in his career, and brings honor to MNNIT Allahabad.
How do I get a good placement at MNNIT Allahabad?
There is no full-proof strategy to get excellent placement in MNIT Allahabad, but the below-mentioned points can help you bag a decent one.
- The top departments of the institute are CSE, IT, and ECE. You should try your hand to explore different fields and works.
- You can start with live projects, playing with different technologies, creating new OS or software, competitive programming, working with algorithms/data structures, and many more.
- Step into everything that stands as an opportunity for you. Invest your time in the areas of your interest.
- Aim to get better at concepts and practical skills than aiming for excellent placements because placements are by-products.
These were the few tips that you can consider for decent placements. Although, you may not be an empty hand because MNIT Allahabad has an excellent placement record.

What should I go for, IT in NIT Surathkal or CS in NIT Allahabad? I want to go for Surathkal but don't know if IT is a good option.
One of my friends was doubtful whether the hindi-speaking culture of MNNIT will have any impact on her English communication skills. If you are doubtful regarding the same, I would say you need not worry uselessly.
Students from MNNIT clear CAT with good scores. This wouldn’t have been possible without clearing the CAT verbal paper. Students converse in Hindi on campus simply because most of them belong to North India. This won’t have any negative effect on your English proficiency. Also, the professors deliver lectures in English. Other than that, to keep enhancing your English skills, you can join the English Literature group of MNNIT.
As far as your options are concerned, MNNIT is known for its top notch education in CSE. It is one of the best colleges in India for a CSE program. Also, the placements offered at MNNIT are quite impressive, especially for its CSE branch.
According to me, you should choose CSE at MNNIT over IT at NIT Surathkal.
From which year are MNNIT Allahabad students given single-seater rooms?
The scenario of hostel room allotment is different for girls and boys at MNNIT.
Girl students do not get single seater rooms even in their B.Tech final year. Final year girls get two seater rooms.
Now as for boys,
- Freshers are allotted Swami Vivekananda Hostel, and each room contains 3 people. It is a newly constructed 7 floor hostel building. The rooms are nice, except for the lack of LAN connection and below average mess food. The in-time is 8:30 pm.
- During the second year, one has a choice. Either one can choose the senior hostel complexes- Patel Hostel / Tilak Hostel, or opt for Tagore Hostel. The earlier two have 2 seater rooms, while Tagore is 4 seater. Tagore Hostel is exclusively made for second year students, and it is spacious. But it is far from the college campus, so one has to walk a lot for the whole year. Patel and Tilak are old hostels, and inhabited by senior students as well.
- In third year, one gets a hostel from among the four senior hostels- Patel, Tilak, Tandon and Malviya. The rooms are two seaters, but there is a single LAN port in the rooms, so wifi sharing is predominant.
- During fourth year, one is allotted a hostel among the four senior hostels. But as a final year student, one gets a single room.
This is the complete detail regarding room allotment for hostellers at MNNIT Allahabad.
