Placement Experience:

The placement is top in India. And very good companies visit here to take students in every field not only in the core sector but also in the non-core sector. More than 90% of students get placed here and the average is around 15lpa. The highest package is around 2.8 crore per annum.

Remarks:

To get into my college you have to qualify for JEE Advanced and get a good rank in it it varies from category to category. In general, to get into IIT Kharagpur in any branch your rank should be in the top 15000. And also to give JEE Advanced exam you have to qualify JEE Mains exam which is conducted twice in a year by NTA. There are also some criteria to qualify in JEE mains to get to give JEE Advanced for the general category which is around the 90 percentile. Also, the benefits to reserve category students are the same as those given by govt of India. The form of JEE mains and Advanced both are available online. The form fees of JEE mains are around 500 and JEE Advanced is around 1800.

Placement Experience:

Internships start in the 5th semester and placements start in the 7th semester. Many MNCs and startups visit for internships and placements. The average package remains around 16lakhs per annum and the highest package goes over 2Cr.

Remarks:

To be eligible for admission to IIT, you need to pass JEE mains and obtain a rank in JEE advanced, which will determine your branch. You also need to score 75% and above on the 12th board. Applications for JEE mains are released by NTA, while IIT releases the forms for JEE advanced. Different types of reservations are available, including those based on caste (such as OBC, SC, ST), EWS, PWD, and a quota for girls.

Placement Experience:

Students at IIT Kharagpur are eligible for internships from the third year of btech program and the fourth year of the dual degree program. The highest package at our college in the last year was 2.6 crore per annum. The average package is 26 LPA. I would like to get placed or startup after the degree.

Remarks:

A student has to qualify for JEE Mains and JEE Advanced for being eligible. For the application form and details, he/she needs to visit the JoSAA website. The cut-off for backward castes is lower. JoSAA website could have linked with the official websites of the colleges and provided details of reporting date etc.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course purely because of the rank and I was getting IIT KGP which is a dream college for many. The faculty includes great profs like Joy Sen Sir, Arjun Sir, Arup Sir, and Shreyas Sir. They are world-class teachers and the learning environment is so great at IIT KGP. Two-term exams namely mid-sem and end sem along with a few class tests happen and they aren't so difficult to pass believe me. I mean you guys have cleared the world's toughest examination to reach there, the term exam is comparatively a piece of cake

Remarks:

So I gave JEE Advanced 2022 and then later on AAT to get qualified for IIT Kharagpur B.Arch. JEE Advanced rank closed at 17k this year for this course for the unreserved category. It is a tough exam to crack but with sheer hard work, dedication and patience you guys can reach to your dream college, in my scenario yes I made it to my dream college i.e., IIT KGP

Placement Experience:

Student in the 1st semester of their final year is able for sitting in placements. There are around 400+ companies visited the campus for the placements like apple, google, Microsoft, Honeywell, Rubrik, Jane Street, alphagrape, etc. They took around 50 students from different courses. We have the highest package of 3 cr this year for the quant profile of Rubrik. There are around 90-95 got placed every year assuming the student is suited for placement. Some students also plan for a master's, Ph.D., or some research program after getting a degree.

Remarks:

We have to get a good course in JEE Advance exam to get an addmission to this course. Well after getting good marks in jee Advance exam there is a jossa counseling through which you will select this college and after selecting the college they will provide the website of the college where we have to apply for the course and admission. They will also describe the process through the mail. Well, you will get rid of some part of the fees based on your father's annual income criteria just like MYSY. You can also apply for various scholarships after the first year of college by getting a good cgpa scores in the examination. You can also change your department after the first year based on a good cgpa like changing to the computer science department. The admission process is very good and easy I think there should be no change in it as of now.

The college placement quality cannot be questioned because the institution is the best engineering college in India, and the university placement is also up to par.

Ques
Is IIT Kharagpur better than IIT Kanpur?

● Top Answer By Saugata Nayak on 30 Mar 23

Ans
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.

Ques
How much does the Work experience, test score, other factors matter for admission in PGDBA course hosted by universities IIT Kgp, IIM C , ISI Kolkata?

● Top Answer By Senjuti Gupta on 08 Jul 22

Ans
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.

Ques
How was your IIM C/IIT Kharagpur/ISI Kolkata PGDBA interview experience?

● Top Answer By Aditi Roy on 30 Mar 23

Ans
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.

Ques
Which one will be a better choice for an MSc in maths, IISc, ISI Kolkata, or IIT KGP?

● Top Answer By Deepesh Sinha on 01 Aug 22

Ans
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.
