Yeah, at LPU animation isn't just taught by regular faculty industry professionals are also involved, which makes a big difference. You get to learn from people who have actually worked on real projects, so they share practical insights, current trends, and real workflows instead of just theory. There are guest lectures, workshops, and sometimes even mentorship sessions where pros guide you on portfolio building and skills that studios actually look for. So overall, it feels more like industry-level learning rather than just classroom stuff.

I remember sitting in the hostel mess when a junior asked me the same question about Lovely Professional University before choosing CSE. I told him honestly that placements are decent. Some students get really good packages, but most people end up in the average range. In the end, it depends on how strong your skills are.
For CSE, it's a good choice if you're ready to code, build projects, and stay consistent. The academic environment is active with a lot happening, but what you get out of it really depends on how involved you are.

With 94% in intermediate you are comfortably above the basic eligibility for CSE; the main gate is usually the university entrance test score, not board percentage. For CSE, selection depends on the LPUNEST/JEE‑Main merit rank, so preparing seriously for the entrance can secure a good chance. LPU's focus on an innovative curriculum, industry‑linked projects and strong placement support makes CSE a solid choice if the seat aligns with your rank and interest.

Lovely Professional University has a strong industry‑oriented B.Tech CSE curriculum updated with emerging fields like AI and cybersecurity, supported by regular industry inputs and live projects. LPU features a large and active placement pool, with thousands of offers and a CSE‑focused average package around INR7–8 LPA, along with top‑tier recruiters visiting the campus. Both universities are respected, but LPU's edge lies in its consistently innovative curriculum, extensive industry interface, and robust placement‑driven ecosystem.

Yes, single-seater hostel rooms are available at LPU, though they are limited and slightly higher in cost. Facilities and security are quite good.

Yes, LPU generally accepts valid MAT scores for the admission cycle. Since CAT/MAT is optional, you can also apply without it.

No, MBA at LPU does not require Kannada. The medium is English, and there's no regional language exam requirement.

Yes, you're eligible to apply to LM Thapar School of Management with 42 percentile in CAT 👍

They don't have a very high cutoff like IIMs. Selection is based on:

  • Entrance score (CAT/XAT/NMAT/CMAT, etc.)
  • Academic background
  • GD/PI performance

That said, 42 percentile is on the lower side, so your GD/PI and overall profile will matter a lot.

Simple take:
You can apply, but prepare well for the interview to improve your chances 👍

If you're comparing honestly, Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology is the stronger pick over Jain University for M.Tech — especially for something like environmental engineering.

Thapar has:

  • Better academic reputation + faculty + labs

  • Stronger industry exposure and peer group

  • More credibility if you plan to grow in core/technical roles

Jain is okay, but it's not really known for core engineering depth.

That said, since you already have 3 years at thyssenkrupp, think about your goal:

  • If you want to move into core environmental roles / higher technical profile → Thapar is a good choice

  • If you're aiming for top-tier growth (PSUs/res

No, you don't have to pay the full fee again for the 2nd cutoff at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology.

Here's how it works:

  • You pay once when you accept a seat in the first round
  • In later rounds (like 2nd cutoff), if you get upgraded to a better branch, your seat is automatically adjusted
  • You may just need to pay a difference (if any) — not the full amount again

So no double payment — just adjustments 👍
