All the Mechanical Engineering colleges in India follow a balanced approach as a part of their curriculum where there are semester exams every 6 months to test the students' understanding of the Mechanical Engineering subjects, along with individual and group research projects and presentations, and class assignments.

The bifurcation is usually 60-40% or 30-70%, where the theory-based exams hold more weightage, followed by the practical component and assignments.

There are a few Mechanical Engineering subjects that might be easy to understand and help you improve your academic performance, like Mechatronics, Basic Fluid Mechanics, Basic Mathematics and CAD, etc. But again, this differs from one person to another based on their understanding and ability to grasp things.
Plus, if you want to improve your academic results, you should focus on understanding the core mechanical concepts, take help from reliable e-resources, and revise what is taught in the classroom on a weekly basis.

A few B Tech Mechanical Engineering subjects in the syllabus that are usually said to be difficult to understand are Thermodynamics, Mechanics of Materials, Control Systems, Engineering Drawing, Kinematics and Dynamics of Machines, and Materials Science. There are various mathematical equations and theories involved that can be difficult for freshers to understand. Having said that, the subject that is difficult for one student can be the easiest one to grasp and manage for their friend, so it differs based on individual interest and understanding.

Absolutely. You will find many additional resources, also online learning platforms, YouTube channels, and college e-libraries, to learn about Mechanical Engineering, from the very basics to the advanced concepts. Online platforms like Coursera and edX have online mechanical courses from top universities.

YouTube gives you access to study material in the form of recorded lectures from IIT professors via NPTEL, and you can even access the e-library of your academic institution (if applicable) to advance your knowledge besides classroom lectures.

One of the most important Mechanical Engineering subjects is Thermodynamics, which deals with the concepts of heat energy and temperature, along with its conversion between different forms. You would come across a variety of books that will give you a basic understanding of the concept, but here are a few book suggestions for Mechanical Engineering freshers to grasp the basics of thermodynamics quickly

  • Basic and Applied Thermodynamics by P. K. Nag
  • Engineering Thermodynamics by S. K. Som & G. Biswas
  • The Laws of Thermodynamics: A Very Short Introduction by Peter Atkins
