What are some helpful tips for students starting their first year at NSIT?

As a senior student at NSIT Delhi, here are my tips for freshers-

1. Maintain a decent attendance, at least fulfill the minimum requirement.
2. DO NOT bring chits or electronic calculators to the exam hall. During every exam, there is a visit by the Examination Authorities. If you are caught with any kind of cheating material, you will receive a backlog. You can’t reason with them after being caught.
3. Do work in NSUT Delhi fests at least once. The seniors come around asking for volunteers. This is a good opportunity to get acquainted with your seniors and peers.
4. Make good connections with your seniors. They will help you with everything, like -Which companies visit the campus for placements, How much percentage to maintain, Which teacher to go to after seeking help, etc.
5. Some teachers are known for marking papers randomly, regardless of what you write.
6. For a tech job in the IT industry, choose between Development and Competitive coding and get into one of these with seriousness during your second or third year. But if you don’t want expertise in either and simply wish for a job, maintain a good percentage and study algorithms from GFG or wherever you deem fit.
7. Join college societies at NSUT Delhi to connect with your seniors.
8. For good food options, go to Dwarka Sector-12 Food Court. You can also go to the in-house Mccain and JC.
9. Maintain a good percentage. 75%+ will allow you to sit for all the companies during campus placements.
10. Do take the hostel even if you are a local student. This will help you during the exam season.

Other than this, I would suggest you make the most out of your time at NSUT Delhi as this is an amazing place.
