- The administrative processes can be slow and cumbersome,with excessive paperwork,and lack of transparency.This sometimes hinders student initiatives,innovation,and progress,causing frustration and demotivation among students and faculty alike.
- While the campus is well-maintained, some facilities like labs, libraries, and sports infrastructure require modernization and expansion to accommodate the growing student body. Limited access to cutting-edge technology, and software.
- The course curriculum, although rigorous, needs updating to reflect industry trends, emerging technologies, and research-oriented learning. Some subjects feel redundant, and more emphasis on practical applications, and case studies.

I applied to 5 colleges, including CMR College of Engineering & Technology (CMRCET), and received confirmed admissions from 3 colleges: CMRCET, VNR Vignana Jyothi Institute of Engineering and Technology (VNRVJIET), and Chaitanya Bharathi Institute of Technology (CBIT). I chose CMRCET over the others due to its: - Strong industry connections and placement record - Experienced faculty and research-oriented learning - Modern infrastructure and facilities - Location and accessibility I didn't make it to BITS Pilani and IIIT Hyderabad due to: - High competition and low admission rates - Missing the cutoff scores by a small margin The admission process at CMRCET involves: - Eligibility: 10+2 with 45% aggregate in PCM - Exams accepted: JEE Main, TS EAMCET, and COMEDK - Most preferred exam: TS EAMCET - Cutoffs: Varying cutoffs for different branches and categories - Admission experience: Smooth and transparent, with counseling and document verification

How MLRIT Stands Out
Placement Experience :
MLR Institute of Technology (MLRIT) has a strong placement record, especially in core engineering and technology fields, including AIML. MLRIT has a consistent placement rate of around 85-90%, with most students securing jobs before graduation. The percentage is slightly higher in the IT and AIML branches due to the demand for AI and tech skills.
