Many of you will be now going to write entrance exams with an inbound ambition to join great engineering colleges in India.Every student desires to have his Btech from an IIT (eventhough all does not express it
).As we all know that IITs and NITs are best places to take engineering degree in India.But only high standard students(or highly trained students) are able to crack IIT-JEE and AIEEE.Those are able to get good rank in these entrance exam go ahead join any IITs or NITs success will be yours for sure.There are many students who leave the seats in NITs and many other important institutions saying that the distance is large,too far from home,place is not good etc.Those people just remember one thing you are taking one of the most bad decisions in your life,for which you may regret in future.This article is mainly for those who are good in studies but not able to get into the top institutions in India.
Obtained An Average Rank In State Entrance.What to do next????This situation is faced by numerous students after their entrance exam.Through this post i am trying to give answers to some of the questions in their mind.This may be helpful for them to select a good college.
- Is engineering branch much important?
- Which place to choose for study?
- Is placements an important factor to judge a college?
- Does last rank details gives a clear idea about a college?
- Are college websites to be believed?
Is Engineering Branch much important?Ofcourse No.Engineering branch is not that important.During the time of placements most of the bulk recruiters just ask for a Btech degree.It can be a degree in any stream.But it is better to take a btech degree in circuit branches(Electronics,computer science,information technology,electrical,applied electronics etc.) if you are joining an average rated engineering college.But If you are highly interested in any other branches just go for it.Mechanical engineering,Civil Engineering etc also have very high scope.
Which place to choose for study?
It is always better to study in a city.The students studying in a city gets more exposure when compared to those colleges in rural areas.Apart from that the rate of placements in cities are very high when compared to that of rural areas(unless your college is really excellent).

Is placements an important factor to judge a college?Placements are an important factor to select a college.But it should not be only placements that you consider to select a college.There are many colleges which has very high placement records(the college may be in a city where a lot of pooled placements occur) but lagging far behind in infrastructure,quality of faculty etc.
Does last rank details gives a clear idea about a college?Last rank details does not give a clear cut idea about a college.It only gives a vague idea regarding the quality of a college. But it can be considered as a factor to choose a college.A college which shows consistently low last rank details will be bad college for sure.It is always good to visit a college directly and rate it,if possible.
Are College websites to be believed?
Dont fully believe college websites.Every college tries to show their college as the best.Some college websites show big big buildings but it may be the pictures of the entire institution which may contain engineering college,arts college,MBA college,other proffessional colleges etc.On the other hand there are some good colleges who never update their website,thus their websites look dull.It does not indicate that the college is bad.As i already said the best way to judge the quality of a college is to visit the college directly.

Through this post i have tried to answer some of your doubts.I think it will be useful for the students.Even after considering many factors,still the college you joined ended upto be bad,dont get dishearted just study well success will be yours.You can even try to get a good GATE score and do an MTech in an IIT if you prepare well during your Btech.
