Read Full ReviewThere are mainly two annual fests conducted at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur. The first one is Spring Fest which is held in January and has various competitions related to society. The other is Kshitij, the tech fest which also happens in January.
Read Full ReviewThe hostels are compulsory for every student. The hostels called Halls in IIT Kharagpur are known for their culture and bonding. The rooms vary from hall to hall, some have only triple sharing rooms and some have only single sharing rooms. Some halls have a combination of single, double, and triple sharing rooms. Mainly 1st, and 2nd year students get triple sharing rooms, and 3rd and 4th year students get double and single sharing rooms respectively. The food quality is also very good and we have a student hall council who manage and keeps an eye over the things to maintain the quality of everything. All these halls are located inside the campus.
Campus Life is one of the best parts of the whole college. IIT Kharagpur is known for its bonding, culture etc. We have Kshitij (Annual Tech Fest) in January, Spring Fest (Annual Cultural Fest) in January and Shaurya (Annual Sports Fest) in October every year. All the books that are required by the students are available in the library and they can be issued by students at any time for a maximum of 60 days for b.tech students. Classrooms are fully furnished with ACs, Fans, lights and Charging Points for every bench. There are immense opportunities for various sports such as Cricket, Football, Basketball, Volleyball, Tennis, Badminton, Table Tennis, Athletics, Weightlifting, Squash and can participate in Interhall, Inter IIT competitions, and sports fest of other colleges as well. There are almost every society and clubs for every interest such as finance, art, quiz, dramatics, dance, entrepreneurship, robotics, Fests etc. which are almost/completely run and managed by the students.
Read Full ReviewThe facilities depend on which "Hall of residence" you are allotted. In our hall, things are pretty decent. Rooms are triple sharing in our hall but they are double or single in majority of halls. Still the rooms are big enough for three people in our hall. Mess food is decent, but better than general perception.
Campus life is just the best. Due to the non-availability of life outside campus, the student community at IIT KGP is very well-knit. There are over 60 clubs and societies cells currently operating. There are Olympic-class sports facilities for the majority of sports.
Read Full ReviewLife at campus is very cheerful with some or the other fest or events happening all the time. We have 3 fests- Spring Fest (the annual socio-cultural fest), Kshitij(the annual techno-management fest) both of which are conducted in January every year, and Shaurya(the sports fest) which takes place in October. There are many clubs and societies here most of which are student-run. They teach you the skills of that particular club and you can join whichever one interests you.

IIT Kharagpur - Indian Institute of Technology - [IITKGP]: 186 answered questions
If you aren’t sure about specialization, choosing IIT Kharagpur MBA is better. The institute has a great management faculty base. The institute offers good placement opportunities in the Operations domain. During VGSoM IIT Kharagpur placements 2021, the Operations sector had the second-highest placement rate, i.e. 20%. The average CTC for the batch was INR 18.44 LPA.
Almost all IITs are excellent engineering colleges providing the best education and amenities. Yet there might be some comparisons that can be drawn based on common aspects like choice, infrastructure, and geographical location. Eventually, it’s a matter of your preferences and not the institute's worth.
For example, if you are someone who considers Academics the most important factor to determine the credibility of an institute, then IIT Kanpur is the best choice for you. It has the toughest grading system and the entire focus is on studies. So if you are excellent in academics, you will remain at the top here.
Both institutes face a certain level of locational disadvantage but IIT Kanpur is still slightly better in this aspect.
These colleges don’t reveal the separate weightage break-up for work experience, test scores, and other such factors. For the final shortlist, institutes such as IIT KGP, IIM C, and ISI Kolkata take these factors into consideration along with your performance in the interview. These institutes assign a good volume of weightage to the entrance examination score. So, try to improve your test score as much as possible.
One of my friends had the absolute delight to appear for the PGDBA interview conducted by a multifaceted panel. He shared his interview experience which might help you a bit.
Before the interview began, he was taken for a Verification Round wherein, every detail of academics scores or other profile-related information was cross-checked on the IIMs format. Once they received an IIM-verified document they were escorted to the interview venue.
The interview room had 3 panels; one from each institute obviously.
They asked for his brief introduction first. On hearing about his interest in Data Analytics, panelists probed him further with questions like
- What is Data Analytics
- Difference between analytics and analysis
- Contemporary Data analytics and ML
They further asked him why he chose Analytics. He told them that the increasing demand for the same in Europe and China made him realize how much India lacks in this aspect and thus he wanted to invest his efforts in Data Analytics.
Next, he was tested on his knowledge of Statistics and Mathematics with questions like
- Difference between mean, mode, Media
- Skewness
- Relationship of mean, mode, and median in a positive Skew graph
- Hypothesis Testing
- What is Anova
The next panelist took the reins and gave him a problem from SPC quality control. He asked him how do you know that his process in electric bulb making is as per customer Norma and is statistically controlled. My friend was able to answer most of the questions confidently and even solved this problem through charts.
Lastly, he was asked about his extracurricular activities and hobbies. The discussion ended with him asking about GST and the difference between GST and previous tax. Even though he gave a common answer, he managed to convert the interview.
ISI Kolkata is the best option for MSc in Maths, followed by IISc. IIT KGP is reputed in the technology domain, but for core science subjects, it’s not a good option. If you are interested to pursue pure Mathematics, choosing ISI is the best option among these. It specializes in the field. You will get better career opportunities and exposure in the field.
The competition to get into NLSIU is very high due to the merit-based system and they have equally impressive placements. IIT Kharagpur, on the other hand, has a very high number of graduates each year, but they do not get offers as high as NLSIU.
But you should be considering which of these colleges would add more value to you. Even if you choose to do an LLB from IIT Kharagpur, you should know that it is the first premier institute for engineering. Whereas NLSIU is one of the best universities in the country for law.
Do not choose a college just because it has better placement, instead focus on which college is better for your career in law. A degree from NLSIU would always hold a better position than a degree in Law from an IIT.
There are so many people that drop out of college just because they failed to research better about their career path and what was good for them.
You should choose IMT-G for an MBA in Marketing. It offers better placement. More recruiting companies visit the campus placement of IMT. During the 2022 placement drive, more than 130 recruiters took part in the campus placement. Amazon, Adani Wilmar, Cisco, etc. are among the major recruiters to take part in the placement drive. IMT Ghaziabad placements also offer better salary packages. For Marketing, the average CTC is around INR 1.92 LPA.
The entrance test for the joint degree program in business analytics by IIM Calcutta, ISI Kolkata, and IIT KGP is a computer-based test. The examination pattern is as follows.
| Total marks | 150 |
| No of questions | 50 |
| Type of questions | MCQ |
| Marking scheme | 3 marks for each correct answer, -1 mark for each wrong answer, 0 mark for each unattempted answer. |
| Section wise questions | 15 questions - Verbal Ability, 5 questions - Logical Reasoning, 5 questions - Data Interpretation and Data Visualisation 25 questions - Quantitative Aptitude |
Go through the previous years' PGDBA sample question papers to get a clear insight of the examination pattern.
My brother is doing his PGDBA from IIT KGP and he was rather afraid of programming and coding when he started the course. If you're stuck in the same situation, then my only advice is to enroll in the course with an open mind and a desire to learn to program if you don't already know-how.
Coding Experience: There is always a first time of everything. Now there are numerous MOOCs available online that can assist you in taking the initial step. The discipline of analytics (technical side) necessitates solid coding abilities, and therefore if you want to pursue a career in analytics, you should start learning the necessary skills now.
Work Experience: It is not necessary to have prior work experience to enroll in the course. However, relevant analytical experience aids in extracting greater value from the course.
According to your assessment of your interests, you have a preference for fields involving mathematics and statistics. Analytical science is an excellent fit in that regard. I would recommend that you go into MOOCs like Coursera, audacity, and your willingness to learn more about this field. You will obtain a better understanding of the field and would be able to decide if this is a good fit for you or not.
NIT Calicut CSE is a better option compared to IIT KGP Agricultural. It offers good academics and placement opportunities for CSE. Companies like Amazon, Cisco, Infosys, Microsoft, etc. visit NT Calicut placements. During 2022 campus drive, students of CSE received an average CTC of around INR 20 LPA. The highest package for CSE goes up to INR 49-50 LPA.
