A balanced and honest review of CET Trivandrum.
Placements: CET Trivandrum offers good placements with many top recruiters visiting the campus and branches like CSE and ECE receiving strong offers. While the overall placement rate is high the average package is moderate so students aiming for top roles need to put in extra effort. Overall CET is a solid choice for placements if you actively use the opportunities provided.
Infrastructure: CET Trivandrum has a spacious campus with well equipped classrooms labs and a strong library though some areas could be modernized. The hostels offer a decent and student friendly living environment but the buildings and common areas will benefit from better maintenance. Food quality is okay but not very consistent.
Faculty: The faculty at CET Trivandrum is generally knowledgeable and supportive especially in core subjects though teaching quality can vary across departments. The curriculum is strong but slightly traditional and could use more industry oriented updates. Exams are fair and structured provided you stay consistent with the coursework.
Other: I chose this course because I have always been interested in how things work and wanted a field that combines problem solving creativity and real world application. The best part is the strong mix of theory practical labs and projects that help build real technical and analytical skills. Overall it aligns well with my interests and long term goals.

if you can manage studies on your own and need more exposure. Many extracurricular activities.
Placements: Though the actual percentage is not known only some students got places. The highest package offered is about 35LPA from Qualcomm and the lowest package offered is 3 to 4LPA. Many students got from TCS. One student got internship at Oracle not much more is known. Do not know about other roles but SDE is the most popular.
Infrastructure: Labs library is top class. Wi-Fi connection is not available everywhere and is slow. The infrastructure much of it is old but still strong write desks and iron chairs for students and projectors are old to but still work though not perfectly. Hostel is privately arranged. No sports and games not much medical facilities though many hospital are nearby. Food is good. Other facilities of hostel are good.
Faculty: Most teachers are helpful qualified and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is excellent for some teachers and not that good for others. Curriculum is relevant. Sem exams are generally easier but series exams are more difficult. Pass percentage is good.
Other: Top college in Kerala is available via KEAM so I chose it. The first sem syllabus covers so many things that might not be useful like Chemistry engineering and graphics that take up a lot of time. No college organized events but events organized by seniors are vibrant crowded and colorful.

Through counseling, places are only provided to individuals who meet the KEAM 2023 threshold grades.

Q:   Can I get into College of Engineering Trivandrum with 70% in CMAT?
A: 

It might not be easy to get into the College of Engineering Trivandrum (CET) with a 70% Common Management Aptitude Test (CMAT) score because CET mainly offers undergraduate engineering and technology degrees. The CMAT is a nationally recognised admission test for management schools. Although it could indicate your ability for management studies, it has no bearing on your eligibility for CET's engineering programs.

With a CMAT score of 70%, there isn't a direct admissions route into CET's engineering programs; nevertheless, you might want to look into other choices, such management programs at CET or other universities, or getting a management degree and applying to engineering programs later. 

It is imperative to acknowledge that the material supplied is broad in nature. For the most precise and current information, one should refer to the official rules and regulations of CET and other pertinent institutions.
