I think they will release certain cutoof for campus round and if you are in that it basically means college thinks that there is a chance for you. But can’t really comment anything
It’s better than govt iiits if you can afford fee as campus life in govt iiits is more fked and I think overall it will have a better pear group as there are no reservations, I think it is quite comparable with iiith also with better campus life.this is just my opinion after contacting few seniors
And i think u can gain very good knowledge as professors here are very good
Well it's obviously better than govt iiits. At my rank I am not getting cse in top few NITs. I only want to do cse (genuine interest issi mei hai I've done coding and all before) so the choice was sorta easy for me.
I see you chose MNNIT CSE last year? How is the program there? Btw I also saw you gave bitsat this year... Did you take partial drop? If so, why if you already got a top 5 nit cse?
i gave major entrance exams to test my knowledge without having any preparation after 1 year gap (real reason was to support my dropper friend mentally) . i am not a partial dropper. Program is quite good here. Attendance is light. The thing is college life isn't great compared to IITs. my friends at iiits are even having harder time due to extra academic load and increased coding competition among peers. People at IITs have quite fun life because they are fast learners and outperform iiits and nit students quite easily due to high IQ (talking about general circuitals students) (under 2k rank JEE adv). Students at Lower Branch at iits enjoy fun life but if they want to be career focused they feel too much inferiority complex because of being unable to compete with the top ladder.
TLDR : at my college it's funner than iiits and less competitive with equal opportunities but if there isn't much to explore apart from tech and circuital based things . In IITs the Term "EXPLORING" means a lot and you will have a chance to shine in many fields. in IIITs you'll find a superior coding peer group than nits and most of the iits for coding but if you don't maintain with them you'll have a hard time.
My belief on placement stats got over ever since i saw iiit delhi showing an average package of 27 lpa and not a single company came oncampus this year with a ctc > 30 lakhs. That's why i feel like avoiding iiits because taking admission just because of placement is scary if those stats can be manipulated so easily but i think iiit bangalore is at the heart of IT hub and its a good city. you'll obviously succeed very good even if you try slightly better than average student.
IN THE END college life at NIT or IIIT feel a bit underwhelming for my rank to me (it was 3.5k mains ). a 3.5k rank in advance enjoys a better life at iits in a lower branch but this feeling is only temporary( till 2nd year) and won't matter during placements or intern season where i and other CS grads of Tier 1 colleges will be better than most of the lower branch grads of Tier 1 and Elite
Do you know how campus round works? Are they gonna tell us how many seats are available for campus round beforehand or is it just gonna be a gamble on the day of campus round instead?
i dont understand, is available seats no. of seats still left to be filled? because it doesn't make sense that out of say btech ece which has 30 seats only 3 seats have been filled in 3 rounds
itni hype kaise bnagayi iski tbh placements are top notch ngl but high fees and college life I expected it to actually remain the same since btech also introduced
I cleared the cutoff for i mtech ece but still didn't recieve the offer letter kisi aur ko same problem aa rahi hain kya also campus round mein participate karne ke liye offer letter ki fee payment karni padegi kya
Yeh btech CSE ki jo rank likhi hai woh general ke liye nhi hai right?
I don't have much knowledge about counselling and all but jitna mujhe pata hai 4k rank pe general ko nhi milta ......
Most toppers are from middle class families. The fees of iiit b is quite high. Just because someone can afford 2-3L in coaching doesn't mean they can afford 20L of tuition fee for college. Many of my friends with great ranks can't afford iiitb but they did attend allen/fiitjee/narayana etc.
Bhai detective ban na hai to dhang se bano. Ek option rakha hai usko but mp will be going to a govt college only. Har jagah to MCN ka pooch raha hu dekh lo bhale hi. I cannot afford bits without scholarship. The only reason I have kept it as an option is because there are scholarships which if I consistently get 80% only then will I be able to afford it without taking a loan. Just because bits ka soch raha hu doesn't mean bahut paise pade hai.
Hmm fair but u get good about of internships and all bro so I think for me at least private colleges like iiith,iiitb, bits (as internships bhi mil jathe hai ) it is worth it. my brother also took loan in bits from 3rd year
Hmm, true. These colleges are really good, it is just that the barrier to entry is high. If I could afford with ease I would definitely have gone for these (wo alag baat hai rank hi bekar hai to milte bhi nhi). The internship part is luring me too. I am considering bits as most seniors say that achieving 40% scholarship would not be very tough(80% will require some trade off with college life), so if I able to maintain atleast that I would only have to take a loan of like 5L or so, that much of a plunge I can still confidently take. I am already getting 80% for sem 1 based on bitsat score so dekhte hai yr kya hota hai.
Is your brother still in college or has he passed out? Which branch?
Great. Would it be possible for me to talk to him? Or could you convey my doubts to him and then reply if that is feasible? If he doesn't have the time, then no problem.
It's unbelievable people undertook such an expensive college which is strict af and fucked up college life. People chose this college just for placements which are shady af :52289:
I talked with seniors and all, from my college many ppl went there and campus life is good enough not like iiith lol there are excellent professors there and we can explore Bangalore city life too
Well I mean there's always a non-zero chance... But iirc 1.1k iir was roughly 10k jee mains rank. So 4k iir is way too far imo. Still, if your friend thinks it's worth the miniscule chance I guess he can still hope for a seat 🤷♂️
