    You must join one of the premium institutes of India with world-class facilities.
    Placements: Above 70% of students get placed in my specialization. The highest package is around 40 LPA, the average package is 12 LPA, and the lowest can reach up to 7-8 LPA. Top recruiters are Bajaj, Reliance, Texas Instruments, Switch Mobility, and many more companies. 3-4 students get internships out of 14 students from my specialisation in Ola, Eaton, TVS, and Texas Instruments.
    Infrastructure: In IIT Guwahati, there are world-class facilities. There is one big central library with 4 floors and a huge seating area for every student, and Wi-Fi is free across the campus. AC and non-AC classrooms are also available. Labs are present with all the equipment. In my hostel, everything is present, like a separate library apart from the central library, a music room, a TV room, and Ethernet ports available in each and every room. The quality of food is great. If you don't like your hostel food, you can change to another hostel mess, but the quality of food is great.
    Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified. Everyone has done their Ph.D., and this is the minimum criteria. They are very helpful and available for any kind of doubt, from personal life to course-related matters. They help out with any problem. The course curriculum is very relevant because companies come for direct roles by branch, and placements are above 85% for Power Engineering. Semesters are difficult. You have to work very hard to stand out in class. There is no fixed pass percentage. It is relatively graded, but you have to score more than 40 percent.

    Placements: Almost 85% of students got placed. The highest package is 1 crore, and the average salary is 25 LPA in my course. Top recruiting companies are Amazon, Uber, JPMC, and Google. About 20% of students got internships, and they got it in Amazon, Uber, and JPMC. The top roles offered are software development and consultant.
    Infrastructure: The facilities are really good. The infrastructure is amazing. It has a big campus with a playground and different buildings for academics and administration. The hostel is quite good. We have a mess which provides 3 times meals then there is a gym. Canteens are available 24 hours. There is a separate hospital for the college people on campus.
    Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified. They have studied at IITs and foreign universities. The course is relevant for engineering and someone interested in Chemistry. The semester exams are difficult and competitive. The pass percentage is a minimum of 40%. They are also very well qualified. The exam structure is made so that there is not too much weightage on the end-semester. The marks are distributed well throughout the semester, and the grading is a little bad for a few courses.
    Other: I chose this course because I had an interest in Chemistry. My JEE rank allowed this branch in the top 7 IITs. I think more labs can be introduced to understand the course better. We have one cultural and one technical fest called Alcheringa and Techniche respectively.
