Highly satisfied with the placements and campus, though classrooms could have been better.

Faculty: The faculty for our department is excellent, though some courses taught in the first year seem irrelevant. The professors are highly friendly and helpful, which is a very good thing. The difficulty of the semester exams depends completely on luck, sometimes it is tough and sometimes easy. Despite this, the overall pass percentage is very good.

Review of titles in Kharagpur.

Faculty: The teachers are very qualified and knowledgeable. They have good teaching qualities. This course is curriculum relevant, but students are not industry-ready. The semester exam in my college was very difficult. The pass percentage in the exam is 40% in all subjects.

Satisfied with the faculty and placements, campus life is good, and overall a solid 4.5/5.

Faculty: Faculty indeed is top tier. As far as the curriculum and exams are concerned, the opinion might vary person to person. Though I think everyone will agree that the curriculum is pretty burdening. Well, what would you expect from an IIT after all? Competition is high; exams are accordingly difficult. However, the CGPA is distributed relatively, so that mustn't be a concern if one starts studying at least a week before the exams commence.

IIT Kharagpur review on Shiksha.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. All teachers in my college have good teaching qualities. This course is a curriculum; therefore, students are industry ready. The semester exam in my college was very difficult; therefore, the pass percentage in my course is so low that it was 80%.

My college is good in terms of infrastructure and facilities.

Faculty: The facilities are good, but aerospace engineering is a bit of a hard course. It requires a lot of time, effort, and passion to complete this course. Professors are very skilled; they do a lot of research in their field, but sometimes you may face problems understanding professors because their level of knowledge is high. So, sometimes it's hard to understand them.

IIT Kharagpur - Indian Institute of Technology review.

Faculty: The faculty at IIT Kharagpur are very learned and helpful. Some of them use a smart board and share PPTs, while others prefer to use the green board. They give regular class tests and assignments, which help in preparing for the mid-semester and end-semester exams. The end-semester exam has more weightage in the overall CGPA.

Honest overview of IIT KGP.

Faculty: The student-faculty ratio is 14 faculty members (teaching assistants and professors) per student, which is more than enough. The faculty members and TAs are approachable. Debraj sir of Physics is very dedicated, trying to include each student and ensuring they understand every topic. However, other TAs don't have much knowledge regarding teaching or understanding student problems; they only know the solutions to the discussed questions. Regarding exams, there are two main exams each semester: t...

The mother of all IITs and its review

Faculty: Teachers are qualified, but some of them don't know how to convey their knowledge to students. It is relevant and updated according to industry standards and we also have industry training at the end of the 5th semester to give students a hint about ongoing industry standards and practices. Exams are moderate. Preparation a week before is sufficient.
