Candidates preparing for IITs are only required to appear for the JEE Advanced entrance exam after qualifying JEE Main. Students who who secure above the 98th percentile in JEE Main 2024 Session 2 should start preparing for JEE Advanced 2025 immediately. Those who score between 95th and 98th percentile should focus on improving their JEE Main score by taking multiple mock tests and practicing previous year's question papers. By analysing their strengths and weaknesses, candidates can identify their areas of proficiency and topics where they need improvement. If they can achieve full marks in their practice sessions, they can start preparing for JEE Advanced. However, if they cannot score full marks, it is recommended that they appear for multiple mock test series for more practice.

Worth Pursuing B.E./B.Tech at Vidhyapeeth Institute of Science & Technology (VIST)?

Based on the reviews from current and former students, here's a summary:

Faculty and Teaching Quality
* Faculty members are generally cooperative, helpful, and willing to guide students.
* Most faculty members hold M.Tech degrees and have teaching experience.
* Teaching quality varies, but some students found it effective, while others felt it needed improvement.

Campus Facilities and Infrastructure
* The campus has a huge area, separate labs for various branches, and a good library.
* However, there is no hostel facility within the campus, and students may face challenges finding accommodations nearby.
* No public Wi-Fi is available for students, although staff members have internet access.

Placement Cell and Career Opportunities
* Unfortunately, there is no dedicated placement cell or regular company visits for recruitment purposes.
* Some companies approach the college occasionally, offering salaries around INR2-2.5 LPA, but these opportunities are scarce.
* The college does not assist students in securing internships, and the last placement drive occurred in 2016.

Other Concerns
* Students mentioned that the college's focus seems to be more on theoretical learning rather than hands-on experience.
* While the college organizes occasional industrial visits and sports events, these activities are not frequent or consistent.

Considering these points, whether or not VIST is "worth" pursuing depends heavily on individual goals, priorities, and expectations. For those seeking strong academic foundations and a supportive environment, VIST might still be a viable choice. However, those relying heavily on the placement cell or expecting a robust industry-exposure programme might want to explore alternative options. Ultimately, it's crucial for prospective students to carefully weigh the pros and cons before making an informed decision.
