Which college should I go SRM or NMIMS for CSE?
For CSE, SRM is the better option. The academics, campus life, and facilities offered are good. Major recruiting companies such as Amazon, Honda, Cognizant, etc. recruit through the campus drive. SRM placements in 2022 witnessed the highest CTC of INR 1 CPA. The institute offers decent exposure. The networking opportunities are ample. Here is an honest review of the SRM University
What rank is required for CS in KJ Somaiya in minority quota?
Computer Science at KJ Somaiya is one of the most in-demand branches. So you will see that the cut-off marks are definitely a bit higher than other branches. There are a few vacancy rounds conducted after CAP rounds to fill the remaining seats. You can expect the cutoff to drop then by a little bit.
The CS minority round placements (CAP rounds) end at the MHCET score of 150 at least. You can expect these to drop to about 135 to 140 later but the overall scenario is almost the same every year.
You can look for the vacancy round forms on the college website and you can keep checking for them from time to time.

IIIT Bangalore iMtech in CSE or NIT Surathkal BTech in CSE, what should I choose?
NIT Surathkal B.Tech in CSE is definitely a better choice because it's one of the oldest institutes with a rich legacy. The department has lots of establishments in academics as well as industry. There are several well-established student activity bodies and an elaborate alumni base with a coding background.
I am strongly against you joining an integrated program at the bachelor's level because you first need to know the exact domain you are interested in. If you realize that you have taken the wrong branch then spending 5 years will become very difficult. BTech gives you enough time and opportunities to analyze what your interests are you can not decide, after 3-4 semesters, you will be able to judge yourself overall. Also, a B.Tech in CSE from NIT Karnataka with a good GRE score may help you get admission offers of MS abroad.
So go for NIT Surathkal BTech in CSE without any second thoughts.
How are the CSE placements in SVNIT Surat?
Like most of the engineering colleges in India, being in the CSE branch can get you better placements as compared to other core branches at SVNIT Surat. My friend is pursuing his B.Tech in CSE final year from SVNIT Surat and he’s currently preparing for his campus placement.
From the past couple of years, the placement record has been quite good with well-reputed companies visiting the campus. These companies include Amazon, Microsoft, Endurance, DeShaw, Oracle., etc.

What will be the fees for a management quota in either MIT Pune or VIT Pune for B.Tech in CSE?
The fee for management quota seats depends on the branch one opts for. As CSE is the most sought after branch, its fee is higher than the others.
The fee ranges from 12-22 Lakhs for B.Tech management quota seats, at MIT Pune. For CSE, it is on the higher end of this range. At VIT Pune, the fee ranges from 8-20 Lakhs. Again, it is on the higher end for B.Tech CSE.
These figures aren’t fixed, they are based on factors such as market demand and inflation rates. Thus, I recommend you confirm the fee structure with the admissions department of both these colleges.
Which is better for CSE, IIIT Kancheepuram or IIIT Sri City?
IIIT Sri City is turning up to be one of the best emerging colleges in our county. As a native of Sri City, in my experience, you will definitely receive a quality education and it is nothing short of the kind of education offered at IIIT-K. Everything is growing at a rapid rate. Your career will definitely take off here.
In order to compare between the two, my suggestion would be to check the website and look at the faculty. From what I know, IIIT Sri City has some really good faculty in terms of their qualifications. You can even compare the placement statistics of the two places. This should definitely give you a clear idea about how good the college and your future prospects by the time you finish your degree.
This should help you out with placements:

Which is the better option; doing computer engineering at SVNIT-Surat, Gujarat or b.tech in ict at DA-IICT Gandhinagar, Gujarat?
I am a resident of Surat, and SVNIT is very close to my house. During my college admissions, I was in the same dilemma. So I spent about a week at both the colleges to make a more informed choice.
One of the professors at SVNIT suggested that I opt for B.Tech ICT at DAIICT over Computer Engineering at SVNIT. He told me that DAIICT is a better option for computer related branches. Here are some pros of joining DAIICT as a B.Tech ICT student-
- The placements at DAIICT are comparatively better.
- Though the NITs have an established brand name, the reputation of DAIICT is better than SVNIT in top companies like Amazon, Morgan Stanley, MAQ, etc.
- It has a greater number of GSoC qualifiers, and a better environment for Open Source Coding.
- The environment is superior for competitive coding as well, and students participate in great numbers in online programming contests on platforms like codeforces, etc.
- A large number of students prepare for exams like GRE, CAT, etc.
Thus, a B.Tech ICT at DAIICT is better in comparison to Computer Engineering at SVNIT.
Is an ECE at NIT Goa better than a CSE at Jamia Millia Islamia?
I have cousins from both NIT Goa, and Jamia Millia Islamia and as they mention, the latter is famous for its CSE course. Usually, students do not leave the opportunity to go for the CSE course of Jamia Millia Islamia.
- CSE is comparably better than most of the other branches in the educational domain.
- CSE provides you job opportunities in accordance to what you have been exposed to, academically.
- On the other hand, ECE is undeniably a good choice of stream.
- For securing a good job position, you will have to pursue majoring in one of many programming languages or web development projects.
- This translates to studying for your course and also pursuing something extra for exposure.
- While CSE students are already part of studying these domains in general.
- ECE students usually also go for the GATE exam.
- However, the only upside ECE students enjoy is finding the slightest amount of vacancies in PSU, while CS students are somewhat one step lower than it.
| Categories | ECE at NIT Goa | CSE at Jamia Millia Islamia |
| Course Fee | 5.38 lakh | 64,600 |
| Highest CTC | 13 LPA | 20 LPA |
| Average CTC | 6.5 LPA | 8-10 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | L&T, Microsoft, Siemens, Infosys, etc. | TCS, Wipro, Adobe, Cognizant, etc. |
Apart from these few, it depends upon how hard you work. Be it ECE or CSE, you have to work hard and utilize the time and opportunities you get while studying in college.
