Shiksha All Time Q&A

Hello,
West Bengal appears to be the only state not insisting on domicile certificate for taking WBJEE. The official announcement has been made and full information is available on its website. However for benefit of students I will state few important facts.The WBJEE will be conducted n 22 Apr 2018. It will be in Pen and Paper mode only. There will be two papers. One for maths and other for Chemistry + Physics. Both papers will be two hours duration. Any citizen of India can appear. He/she should be of minimum age of 17 years. There is no upper limit. Exam will be conducted in 44 cities spread across West Bengal, Assam and Tripura. If one sees this, it's clear that student outside West Bengal can surely appear and get admission in any of the 104 participating institutions across West Bengal.To conclude, I will say that any Indian citizen of 17 years or more can appear for this exam of course with restrictions of marks for general and reserve category students of 45% and 40% respectively along with need to score at least 30% in English.

Hello,
It's a nice query to ask. Almost students who want to pursue engineering are faced with this issue. But I would advise you not to worry. What needs to be done, one has to simply do it. Having said this, I want to allay your fears. If you are preparing for JEE then you need not prepare separately for WBJEE. Having said this, it does not mean that you can just relax. There are still some things that you must do to score good marks in WBJEE.WB Government has already issued notification for exam that is to be conducted on 22 April 2018. It will have two papers of two hours duration each. Paper 1 will be of maths and Paper 2 will be of Chemistry and Physics. Exam will be conducted only in Pen and Paper mode. These were the mundane statistics. Now I will come to nuances that you must remember or prepare for. Taking mock test every week after few months of study will go a long way in preparing you for exam. Here you will realise difference in the exam pattern. If possible then I would advise you to take some coaching for solving exams. Coaching classes have well developed skills of tricks of how to answer in shortest possible time! This goes a long way in helping students attack max questions which in turn helps in getting more marks.In conclusion, I would advise students that separate preparation is not required for WBJEE if one is studying for JEE also. Only practice of solving mock papers is required to be studied separately.

Dwarkadas J. Sanghvi College of Engineering is among the top colleges in the Mumbai, but only in terms of infrastructure and academics and if you get your hopes high about the placements in the college, you are about get disappointed really bad.
The college provides for an average placement package of around 3.5 lacs and that too in IT corporate companies like Infosys, TCS, Wipro, Accenture or actually mass recruiters which tells about the state of placement in the college.
The total batch placement percentage is around 70% and almost no core placement is seen in the college. Hence, the placements in the college are not at all satisfactory and one looking for placements should not take admission for the sake of it.
The highest placement in the college for mechanical engineering branch in 2017 branch was around 5-6 LPA. Hence I would recommend someone to join the college only if he or she has no other option.

Greetings from SHIKSHA.
Computer Science Engineering is the best engineering Branch of today in terms of education and Placements.
MIT is good Institute which provides quality education especially to CSE students.
The placements at MIT, Manipal of Computer Science Engineering is really very good. The placement ratio is almost 95% placement. Many multinational IT companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Google, etc. visit every year and take students from here.
The average package is around 12 lakhs per annum.
Since this Branch CSE is among evergreen field, the Placements of this Branch will increase with good amount of packages.Other than these , many companies like ITC, Zydus, GSK, Uber, Ola cabs TCS, Tech Mahindra, Mahindra Satyam, Cognizant, Infosys, Just dial, etc. takes students from here. This all credit goes to Training and Placement Cell Department of MIT. So thus it is really good to do Computer Science Engineering from MIT Manipal if someone is really interested in this course and is in the search better packages and further studies.
So, thus the placement ratio of MIT Manipal is almost 95% and in future it will be like this only for Computer Science Engineering and other top Engineering fields.

LNM Institute, Jaipur is quite better than BML Munjal University if anyone have to choose between them because BML Munjal university est. in 2014 so no batch passed till date so it is quite risky to join this college but LNM Institute Jaipur is an deemed university est. in 2003.
LNM Institute is a non-profit trust spread over 100 acres of campus. Faculty are mainly PhD from good reputed college. Faculty member are quite helping which helps student in their career making and BML Munjal University has also good faculty but result of this college is not declared then it is quite tough to say is this college has good or not but review of studying student are quite good. Fee for both the college are approximately same that is 10 lakh for 4 year.
Admission in BML Munjal University is through her college exam but LNM Institute take admission on the basis of JEE Mains marks and more than 60% marks in class 12th exam board.
In 2016 LNM Institute has 96.9% placement in which 27 company visited but in BML Munjal University there is no placement events occur because college established in 2014.
Right now, BML Munjal is emerging we wish to see this college as one of the important college for engineering in the nearby future.

B.Tech at Christ University is a more recent set up in the college and not many batches have passed out since its beginning.
The college is known for its extremely well-reputed faculty and excellence.
If you are expecting good placements in the college then you will be in for a great out of disappointment, as the college fails to provide with the same. The total batch placement package is around 70% where most of the students get placed in corporate IT firms, which would pay you nothing more than 4 lacs in an average.
The highest placement being offered to the automobile engineering for the batch of 2017 was around 5 lacs which is really poor for a college of such great reputation.
But the B.Tech department in the college is still in the emerging stage, and not many batches have passed out and so is still in the developing stage.
I would not recommend anyone to take admission at this college if you have any better college to pursue engineering at.
Hope this helps.

GL Bajaj Institute of Technology and Management is located in Greater Noida and is affiliated to Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Technical University, Uttar Pradesh.The college is not much older but it's growing very fast. GL Bajaj Institute of Technology and Management has good placement record for computer science engineering. Highest package offered was 25 lakhs per annum. But the placement of mechanical engineering there is not up to the mark. Very few core companies visited the campus. Most of the mechanical engineering students got placed in software/consultancy/ finance companies.
Average package offered for ME Students is 2-3 lakhs per annum.
So if your aim is to get a good placement that too in mechanical engineering then GL Bajaj Institute of Technology and Management is not a place for you. You should take admission somewhere else or switch your branch if you want to study in GL Bajaj.

Manipal Institute of Technology is among the top private colleges in India, and once had a great reputation for excellence in academics, faculty and placements.
Although if core company placements are what you are looking for then it is not the right place for you, as most numbers of offers are made by corporate IT companies while the number of core company placements in the college is only around 10%. So, most of the students end up taking IT corporate jobs, giving up packages of nothing more than 4 lacs.
The average placement packages offered for mechanical engineering branch in Manipal Institute of Technology is around 5 lacs and the highest placement package being on the batch of 2017 being around 8 lacs.
The total placement percentage for the whole was around 90% and hence the college ensures you of a job even though you fail to perform well in academics. Hence, one can consider taking admission in this college but you should consider this as your last option to resort at.
Good luck!
