Why do students leave BHU?

AS
Amita Santra Posted On : November 15th, 2022
Economics from Banaras Hindu University (Graduated 2018)

Although BHU has the best faculty and management, many students tend to leave BHU after a few days. They feel isolated and homesick. Also, the teachers have a lot of political influence. The administration does not let you take a stand for yourself. A lot of inter students riots take place here.

Also, BHU has a sustaining hierarchy and preferential treatment that seeps down to the education part as well. Ex-students become professors without external exposure. So they bring much lesser value in terms of ethics, fair marking, and admission system.

I think these are some minor reasons why students keep leaving BHU after admission.

What is life like at DU?

KJ
Karuna Jaiswal Posted On : October 4th, 2022
Studied Economics at University of Delhi (Graduated 2017)

Here is what a 2012 DU Hansraj College graduate has to say about life at DU.

As a 17 years old boy who had received high marks in 12th grade, his expectations were as high as they should have been. But, over time, he realized that DU is just like any other university in a sense that it gives you a name but not necessarily a job. So, he went through the typical Indian education system, i.e., focusing on grades rather than fundamentals. 

So, after enrolling in DU's Physics Hons, he skipped classes and concentrated on concepts, but the results were still disappointing. He wasn't getting good grades or gaining a lot of knowledge. But after three years, he realized that success is impossible without in-depth knowledge. He got admitted to IIT Bombay after putting in a lot of effort, and that completely changed his life. 

The DU experience is the most joyful, as he claims. He says he is a foodie who enjoys eating, studying, and traveling. Thus, below mentioned are a few places recommended by him:

  1. Amba Cinema- It is well-known for its whistling. He has visited the theater quite frequently and seen movies like Gabbar is Back, Baby, and many more.

  2. Chole Bhature of Rawalpindi

  3. The Kamla Nehru Ridge

  4. Miranda House

Life changes, and we should embrace it. The University of Delhi is not merely a dream university where students are keen to study, but it is an emotion. An intense sentiment is attached to the hearts of the students. Life here feels immensely simple yet happening. We meet different kinds of people in every phase of life that we spend here. It gives so many experiences, both beautiful and harsh, to learn, explore and understand the truth of life. Almost everyone is friendly, polite, helpful, thoughtful and cooperative. The primary draws at DU are the annual college fests. You get to have a wonderful experience and enjoy extraordinary performances by popular celebrities that you would never have seen in your entire life.

B.Tech Computers & Biotechnology Industry Organization, National Institutes of Technology (2021)

IIIT Allahabad offers an enviable campus life.  On weekdays there will be classes from 9.00 AM to 6 PM. The institute has a strict attendance rule. Students need to maintain at least 80% attendance. You will have theory and lab classes. After 6 pm, many students play cricket, football, or hang out. Some also study. You will meet all kinds of people in the hostel. Some people play video games with friends at night, some study, and some students play loud music until the guard asks them to turn the volume down. 

Weekends are usually boring compared to weekdays. Students usually go out or play sports. Many students also use the weekends to finish their assignments and coursework.

How is NIT Agartala in terms of academics, hostels, facilities, studies, and placements?

SG
Sugandhi Garg Posted On : October 3rd, 2022
Studied Computer Science at National Institute of Technology, Agartala

NIT Agartala is a decent option in terms of academics, hostel, facilities, studies, and placements. Academics are decent. But there aren’t many chances for research. Professors are well-experienced and supportive but most of the time you need to depend on self-study. 

Being a Central Govt. college, NITA offers good facilities. The departmental library, workshops, and laboratories are well-equipped. It offers virtual class facilities. ISRO has an innovation incubation center on the campus of NITA. 

The institute has a decent placement record. According to the recent highlights of NIT Agartala placements, the highest and average CTC offered was INR 36 LPA, and 5 LPA, respectively.

Is there any ragging in Gautam Buddha University?

RG
Rishi Goel Posted On : December 23rd, 2021
B.Tech+M.Tech Computer Science, Gautam Buddha University (2022)

No, ragging is strictly prohibited in Gautam Buddha University (GBU). You do not have to worry about ragging at all. The seniors are extremely cooperative and helpful. They offer a very welcoming vibe.

If you need opportunities to express your talent, the seniors in your department will absolutely help you with it. They made sure that you receive proper guidance to polish your public speaking skills. Opportunities also came in the form of debate competitions, group discussions and anchoring in various events. They encourage you to take part in them.

The anti-ragging atmosphere of this University is something which sets it apart from the other institutions of this region.

How good is MICA, Ahmedabad in terms of ROI, learning experience and campus life?

AR
Amit Rana Posted On : March 7th, 2023
Ba(Hons) History from University of Delhi (2022)

Since you have specifically mentioned the aspects on which you want info, I will go straight to the point.

Learning experience: The pedagogy and curriculum are industry relevant and are updated on a yearly basis. The students are taught about Marketing from Day one covering all the arenas. It’s the relevancy and well-structured nature of the curriculum combined with excellent pedagogy that gives the students of MICA an edge over other students of B schools like IIMs during internships 

The course is specially designed for Marketing enthusiasts. The students win many corporate and B-school competitions like Mahindra War Room, HUL Lime, etc. owing to the institute's specialization in Marketing. These competitions fill the gap between the theoretical and practical knowledge we gained in class.

Campus life: The MICA campus is one of the liveliest campuses across India. A student-driven committee organized fun events and kept the spirit alive on campus. We have football, cricket, Game of Thrones, and other movie screenings. Birthdays at MICA are celebrated with much fun. You will get a baggage of memories just in 2 months that will stay with you throughout your life.

ROI: MICA fees are not less given how coveted the course is. This year the fee was ?21 Lakh. The course is priced competitively but it is still not as high as the fees charged by private B Schools like NMIMS or IIMs. After interacting with a few alumni I got to know that most of them managed to repay their loans within 3-4 years. So overall the ROI is pretty good.
