Shiksha All Time Q&A

Clearing UPSEE is tough unless you know how to prepare for it and how to get the results which toppers get by studying for the same.
The difference is created through their well arranged and disciplined study sequence that is mentioned below.
First of all, one needs to give at least around six hours daily for all the three subjects and around ten to eleven hours for getting in the elite position of AIR 100.
Then one should be well aware of the syllabus and should know which topics should be covered and studied properly and how much practise is needed. Though for getting into top 100 all the topics should be covered and practised unnecessary wastage of time should be avoided on small topics. And one has to learn to manage the things in a proper manner.
The questions should be done in a way that it can be remembered easily for a long time. No distractions are tolerated because in this position you cannot afford it. At last, ask as many as doubts you can for better understanding.
Thank you and best of luck.

I think no engineering college guarantees placement to its students.In fact, engineering colleges are there to make you an engineering. Even the students of IIT endup jobless.
The condition of NITs (except the top NITs) is worst. Many newly established NITs are still struggling for campus and well as faculty members.
I am not saying that you should expect nothing. It is up to you and your calibre to get a good job offer.The placement cell can only invite the companies for you. Getting a job or not depends on you. If you have talent then you will surely get a good job offer even through off-campus placements. I have seen students of BIT Patna who failed to get a job through campus placement but got the job of around 30 LPA off campus.
You can expect a placement package as high as 1 crore and as low as zero. Now, I think that things are clear in your mind. NIT will only give you tag and knowledge. You can get jobs in PSUs as well. However, you can expect an average package.
Hope it helped.
Thanks.

Birla institute of Technology (BIT) Mesra is considered as best private engineering college after Birla Institute of technology and science (BITs) Pilani. The reputation of BIT is very good, even in foreign companies. As it is an old engineering college, the alumni network is very good. Alumni of BIT Mesra is working in top companies of the world.
Getting placement abroad is not a big deal. More than thousands of students have been placed abroad till now. Although the number of foreign placements is few.
If your aim is to get placed abroad then BIT Mesra will be a good place to study at. But only your caliber and talent will fetch you foreign offers.

The problem with aerospace engineering branch is that you just cannot consider doing it from every other college or you would be forced to join some IT company with an average placement of 3.5-4 LPA.
This is also the case with Chandigarh University, where the training and placement cell of the college fails to attract a number of core companies in the department of aerospace, considering the lesser number of opportunities for an aerospace engineer in India.
So you will be asked to sit for an IT company if getting placed appeals you the most.
Other than that, if you really want to remain in the core field you should consider doing your Master's degree from IIST (Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology), which brings you one more step closer to ISRO or if you manage to be among the top 10 students in the aerospace department of an IIT, you might get into the ivy league colleges and from there you might make your way to NASA.
I hope this helps.
Cheers.

Just as I have been dealing with each and every question related to foreign placements, a college can only play a small part in fetching you a foreign placement by attracting some of the foreign companies to their college during the placement season, but they are just a few in number.
Other than that, considering the multinational companies, their decision to make you work at which job location is based on many internal factors, although they do give your option a little preference.
The factors being, vacancy in the job location of your choice, the projects going on at the job location that matches your profile and the company's requirement.
Now to answer your question, yes, there are a number of students getting placed abroad every year, but they are the ones having extraordinary profiles.
Simply a National Institute of Technology cannot guarantee you a job abroad.
Hence, as of now, you should consider making your college life meaningful rather than concentrating on foreign placements.
I hope this helps. Cheers.

SRMJEE mainly focuses on mains topic and is easier than Mains as seen from preparation perspective.
Although, the competition remains the hard when you have to get the desired branch and fee waiver for the session.
The most important part of the syllabus is the focus should be done first on main topics.
The syllabus follows chemistry, thermodynamics, mole concepts, atomic structure, alkane, alkene, alkyne, haloalkane, combustion of fuels and calorific values, P-Block, D-Block, ionic equilibrium and a onetime quick revision on NCERT topics.
For physics, it is NLM, forces, kinematics, SHM, waves, fluids, thermodynamics, heat, capacitance, EMI, Faraday's law, rotational and circular motion, ray and wave optics and few measuring instruments such as Vernier Caliper and screw gauge.
In maths, the 2d geometry including parabola hyperbola, ellipse and circles, calculus that is differentiation, integration, AOD, area under the curve, series, functions, permutation and combination and probability.
Also, don't forget to solve previous year papers if available. They are helpful.
Thank you. Hope it helped.

You have your own pros and cons for pursuing mechanical and automation engineering from Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology:
Cons:
First of all, no government organisation or any PSU would consider your degree of mechanical and automation engineering equivalent to a mechanical engineering degree because of which you will not be able to qualify for companies looking for mechanical engineers.
The number of core companies visiting the campus during a placement season is very less, that being Anglo Eastern Shipping that do offer packages as high as 14 lacs, but then you have to spend around 4 months on the ship.
The college would make you sit for IT companies' placement which would offer you nothing more than 4 to 5 lacs.
Pros:
If you are really interested in the field and you want to go for higher studies abroad, then you will be able to increase your prospects much higher to get placed in some core company paying you nothing less than 15 lacs per annum.
I hope you make the right choice now.
Cheers.

The selection of a candidate for MS program is a 2 stage process in abroad:
Selection process goes something like this there is a list of cutoffs for a threshold values for certain selection criteria for example all the students with GRE above 310 will be cleared or All students at CGPA above 8 out of 10 will be selected, etc. This limit is not very strict and flexible there is also criteria of English proficiency test.
In this process you will be just on your GPA GRE score letter of recommendation and sop, etc. And is highly flexible. Student with great academic but not so good GRE marks can be selected over a student with perfect GRE score and average Academy.
So as you can see in both of the process there is always more weightage given to to your GPA than any other factor the weightage of the factors is given below:
Usually the selection criterion goes like this (in descending order):
*Academic GPA/CGPA/%age as well as ranking in your batch
*Undergrad university
*SOP
*Research ex/Work ex
*GRE
*LOR
These other factors will vary from case to case:
*Final Year Project
*Internship and papers
*Co/Extra-curricular
*Prof Letting
I would suggest you that GPA is the most important thing for the selection of a student for MS programs in abroad.
Hope it helps.
