Q:   What can students do after JEE Main session 2 result?
A: 

After JEE session 2 is completed, only those candidates who are aiming for IITs need to start preparing for JEE Advanced after clearing JEE Main. Those who are above the 98th percentile should start preparing for JEE Advanced as soon as possible. Those below this, between the 95th and 98th percentile, should focus on attempting more mock tests and previous year question papers so that they have a better chance of clearing JEE Advanced

Q:   Is it worth pursuing M.Sc. at IIT Kanpur?
A: 
{Source: M.Sc. students & alumni}

Based on the feedback from students and alumni, here's what you need to know:

Placement and Career Opportunities:
* Placement rates are low for M.Sc. students, especially those in Mathematics, with most opting for PhD programs instead.
* Fewer companies visit the campus for recruitment, and the ones that do offer lower salaries (around 6-7 LPA).
* Coaching institutes are a major employer for M.Sc. students, with packages ranging from 6-10 LPA.
* Most students prefer pursuing PhD programs over industry jobs.

Infrastructure and Facilities:
* Excellent infrastructure, with well-maintained hostels, libraries, and laboratories.
* 24/7 high-speed internet connectivity, modern equipment, and air-conditioned classrooms.
* Good mess facilities and recreational spaces.

Faculty and Curriculum:
* Highly qualified and experienced professors with a strong research background.
* Relevant and advanced curriculum that prepares students for PhD programs and research careers.
* Strong emphasis on practical skills and theoretical foundations.

Student Life and Extracurricular Activities:
* Campus life is vibrant, with frequent events and festivities.
* Freedom to move around the campus and interact with peers from different departments.
* Plenty of opportunities for extracurricular activities, sports, and cultural events.

In conclusion, pursuing an M.Sc. at IIT Kanpur may not be ideal for students seeking immediate career prospects or high-paying jobs. However, for those interested in academia, research, or pursuing a PhD program, IIT Kanpur offers excellent infrastructure, faculty, and curriculum. Ultimately, the decision depends on your academic goals and priorities.
