I would love to do it all again if it's for THI
Tips: Get your fundamentals good and be open-minded. Lots of scholarships if you know the places; keep looking for your jobs/internships/support; the university has sits/people for everything. Accommodation is a bit expensive, but since you'd live closer to Munich, it's worth it. You'll make big.

THI: Life-Changing Journey: Tough initial adjustment, great career options
Tips: 1. You must adapt to strict punctuality, direct communication, a close shop on Sunday, and self-study, which is a must. 2. Deutschlandstipendium for 2 semesters, 300 euro / month. I got it by applying with a good motivation letter along with good grades.
Likes (Value for money): Because for our batch, the fee structure was unbeatable—paying just a 67 euro student union fee per semester and receiving high-quality competitive German education, so I would say I would not have any cheaper fee structure compared to India/the UK.
Dislikes (Indian Food): They have an Indian restaurant here, but the taste is not good. I tried ordering chicken dishes from multiple restaurants; they were in the range of 17-20 euros, but the taste was a bit sweet. So I do not order it anymore; rather, I prefer to cook by myself.

A Great Place for Learning and Growth.
Tips: Before coming to THI, be ready to take total control of your own schedule. Professors expect serious self-study, and preparing for end-of-semester Klausuren takes months of independent prep. You'll also hit a cultural shift right away—German culture values direct communication, strict punctuality, and taking full initiative without anyone holding your hand. While English works for lectures, learning German is pretty much essential if you want to navigate daily life in Bavaria easily and land a good Werkstudent job at companies like Audi. Overall, I'm really glad I chose THI—just come prepared to be independent from day one.
Likes (Part time work): I gave part-time work 5/5 because Ingolstadt is an industrial hub, so student job opportunities are everywhere. On campus, you can easily land HiWi (student assistant) or research lab roles through THI departments. Off campus, being in Audi's hometown means there’s a massive demand for engineering, IT, and business Werkstudenten. Even if you're still working on your German, there are plenty of mini-jobs in local retail, warehouses, and restaurants around town.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I gave Indian food a 3/5 because Ingolstadt is a smaller Bavarian city, so genuine Indian dining options are pretty limited. You’ll find a handful of Indian and Pakistani spots alongside the usual Turkish döner shops, but the flavors are often toned down and options get repetitive fast. I end up cooking at home most days after grabbing spices from local Asian or Turkish grocery stores in town—it’s way cheaper, tastes authentic, and saves money compared to eating out.

Important things to know about one of the public university in Germany
Tips: That it's an industrial city where Audit is headquartered and you don't really have the vibe of a happening city. You will also see a lot of cultural shifts. I haven't gotten any scholarships, but one can apply if their academics are good. I'm honestly satisfied with my university and my course.
Likes (Indian Food): You have all cuisines of food available, and I prefer home-cooked food. You have Indian restaurants where one dish could cost on average 15-18 euros; one can also find a lot of doner (a kind of roll), which is always student-friendly priced around 10 euros.
Dislikes (Part time work): 1100 euros per month. You would find part-time jobs in Munich, and the part-time jobs are quite manageable because as a student you are allowed to work only 20 hours per week, and the rest of the time can be spent on academics. One can expect minimum wages to be paid in odd part-time jobs.

Overall university campus and Ingolstadt city for students is very safe and relaxing clean and good
Tips: The course is great, with new thinking and new learning, more practical communication, presentation, and projects great for exposure and exploring the new studies. It's not very technical or complex or mathematical; subjects are easy to score. You need more of an extrovert personality, innovation, design thinking, mindset, communication, and leadership. These kinds of skills will be developed.
Likes (Safety): Very safe. Ingolstadt as a city is a very good place to live: relaxing, clean, and safe, with low to no crime rates and fewer illegal migrants. Mostly students, families, and working professional people are there, so it's a very good, safe environment. Ingolstadt, I would say, is a great city for students.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Fewer companies also. There is no direct placement like in India, so you have to find your own job, and I don't know about the future or past. Right now the job market is at its worst, especially if you don't have enough experience—I mean, at least 3-5 years for freshers—and especially without German skills (fluent); it's almost impossible to find a full-time job. That's a harsh reality.

Fun Learning Journey towards new technology
Tips: Be prepared for independent study, better time management, and cultural adjustment. Self-study is very important here. Research scholarship early and plan your finance carefully. Overall, my experience is positive and rewarding. Keep in mind, changing according to situation is the best defense in foreign.
Likes (Internships): I have got my internship in just two weeks, and then it will get easier for the next working student jobs. But the marketeer tighter later. Like the last working student, I have spent 3 months roughly. And the job conversion to full time is really less.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Almost no restaurant available from my country. And there are some in Munich, which takes at least one and a half hours to reach. By the way, there are some Indian shops where the taste is close but not exact. By the way, I also like to explore food from other countries.

I scored 72 percentile in JEE Mains in Jan. Can I score around 125 marks? Shall I take a drop? I belong to OBC NCL Chhattisgarh.

Answered a month ago

Scoring 72 percentile is around 50 to 60 marks. If you're targeting 125 marks, then focus on covering important and high weightage topics. Solve mock tests and previous year papers.
