Cracking BITSAT isn't about the books you use. It is more about clarity of concepts and lots of problem solving and an excellent time management. If you have prepared rigorously for JEE then you won't need any extra book for BITSAT. Rather I would suggest giving lots of mock tests. Make sure you are thorough with all the formulas and general solution for simple cases as it can save a lot of time in exam.
The main point is timed practice and lots of revision. Apart from that take a look at previous year's papers. There are some books available in market for mock tests but buy only from trusted publishers. Have confidence before going to exam or your entire preparation will be of no use in the end.

Hi,
Yes, one can go for Diploma in engineering after successfully clearing class 10th. Many polytechnic colleges have been established which are providing this course.
This course is valued almost same as class 12th and in some places more than class 12th, such as in B.Tech if a student wants to do B.Tech after diploma then he/she can directly take admission into 2nd year.
Eligibility:
Minimum qualification required for admission into a Diploma course is clearing Secondary School /tenth standard/equivalent examination, with at least 45 percent in science and maths subjects.
How to get admission?
All state and central govt. conduct their own exam for giving admission to students into their colleges such as Madhya Pradesh DAHET, Telangana POLYCET and Uttarakhand JEEP.
Some good polytechnic colleges:
1. Government Polytechnic College, Mumbai
2. S H Jondhale Polytechnic, Thane
3. Vivekanand Education Society's Polytechnic
4. Adesh Polytechnic College
5. Adhiparasakthi Polytechnic College
6. Anjuman Polytechnic
7. Bapatla Polytechnic College
8. AANM and VVRSR Polytechnic Krishna
9. Government Polytechnic College, Ambikapur
10. Kalinga Polytechnic, Bhubaneswar
What to do after Diploma?
Government Public Sector companies offer a number of jobs based on the Diploma qualification. Private companies have also been providing a great scale of employment. So to get admission in B.Tech after Diploma one has to go through LEET exam.
Why opt for Diploma instead of 12th?
1. 3-year Diploma course makes "Half Engineer".
2. Best option to study technology after schooling.
3. More exposure to tech world.
4. May get good job easily.

Hello, let me tell you about the placement and internship trend of IIT Guwahati. You won't believe, due to so much hype about the internships abroad, students generally intern abroad in a huge number and it is highest as compared to any other IITs. Even students in the mechanical department with "F" in their courses who got internships abroad. In my honest opinion, since there are a large number of reputed CS companies which come to the campus for internships, probably the good students find it too lucrative to get in them and hence end up not doing foreign internships. Thus, many students end up getting pre- placement offers (PPOs) from the firm that they were interning abroad. The second thing is the placement cell which makes calls to a number of companies for campus recruitment. IIT-G has a very dedicated placement team and every year almost all major companies visit the campus. But the majority of these companies are from the software industry. But this trend is common to all the engineering colleges.
Check out the placement and internship report published by the director of IIT, Guwahati in the link given below:- http://www.iitg.ac.in/pro/sites/default/files/14thConvo_Director's_Report.pdf.
Hope this helps! All the Best!

When it comes to petroleum engineering in particular, IIT (ISM) Dhanbad has got no match all across India. If we talk about last 2-3 years, almost top 60% (GPA wise, good communication skills, good CV) of the total strength (100 - 110) got placement in core companies like Schlumberger, Shell, Cairn India, Halliburton etc. which is above Rs 10 to Rs 12 lakhs per annum. Rest of them have to accept either the placement offers of IT companies or have to go for further studies. There is a very little scope of off-campus placements in India. Quality placements are very good but quantity placements are not so good in core companies - this means that average package and percentage of batch placed is not that great as compared to other branches of IITs, but ISM, Dhanbad has recently been recognized as Indian Institute of Technology. It may take time to get more quantity of placements, but it may improve in years. In 2017, out of 97 students who appeared for the placement process in total, almost 35 students grabbed the core company job. Some of the students joined the non-core one.
The recent placement statistics of 2017 session is mentioned in the link given below:-

Both the colleges are newly established in PPP (public private partnership) model. Now if you want to compare these two colleges you can compare using certain parameters:
1. Location: Sricity is not a very big city not so behind Vadodara.You may choose one which is nearest to you home town.
2. Infrastructure: Both the colleges are new and infrastructure is just average.
3. Quality of crowd: Cutoff for both the colleges are similar. Students of IIIT Sri City are bit talented. Mentor Institute of IIIT Sri city is IIIT Hyderabad so one can easily understand the importance of being there. Coding culture is good there.
4.Faculty and Placement: Both the institutes are equally in terms of placement. Stats may vary every year.
I will recommend you to choose IIIT Sri City over IIIT Vadodara just because of its mentor institute (IIIT H).

Hey there,
The placement scenario varies from year to year especially in chemical engineering of Haldia Institute of Technology.
In 2017, various core companies recruited students from HIT like Haldia Petrochemicals Ltd., Adani Wilmar, Topchem Cement, Praxair, Wacker, S.G Biogas, IR Chemicals, Oriental Nicco, Chemtex, Voith Paper, Sanmar, and Almal.
Many IT companies mass recruited chemical engineers like Wipro, TCS, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, etc.
Some chemical engineers from Haldia Institute of Technology got a chance to get placed in sales companies like Berger, Amazon, but these two companies recruited students through off campus placements. Off campus placement opportunities are also there but you need to have the patience to get through with them as most of them are willing to recruit after you have completed your final semester. Some faculty members help students appear for an interview through their industry sources off campus.
Well, talking about the placement stats, only 20% of batch get placed in core companies, the rest of the batch was placed in IT companies that are mentioned above and some decided to opt for higher studies.
The average salary package offered by core companies was 3.5-.5.5 LPA and the salary offered by IT companies was 3-3.2 LPA.
If you really want a core job then you have to be among the toppers or else smart enough to face any interview.
I hope this helps you.

Hi there,
Aeronautical engineering is a study about the design and systems of an aircraft. It involves practical and theoretical understanding of materials, assembling parts, testing and maintenance of aircrafts. Professional engineers working in this domain have to be licensed aeronautical engineers.
MIT School of Engineering is quite a reputed college, with good placements records.
Some insights of the college are:
Intake: 120
Placements stats:
The placements of aerospace engineering are quite pathetic so you have to be your own and need to work very hard to get placed in top aerospace companies.
However, the aggregate placements figures are:
Average package: 4.5 LPA ( aggregate of all branches )
Highest package: 11 LPA
Recruiters: Volkswagen, Asian Paints, Newgen Software, Atos Origin, Wipro, Infosys, TCS, IBM, Adobe, Tech Mahindra and many more.
Here is the link to get more insights of the placements:
