Yes, definitely worth considering. Thapar has a good reputation, strong academics, decent placements and good industry exposure. If you're getting a preferred branch there, I'd say go for it.

Yes, Thapar has international recognition. It is ranked in global rankings like QS and THE, and its eligible engineering programmes also have ABET accreditation. So for higher studies or opportunities abroad, Thapar is a recognised name.

Thapar is a pretty good engineering institute overall. It has strong academics, good placements, experienced faculty and decent industry exposure. The institute is also ranked 29th in NIRF 2025 Engineering. If you're getting a good branch there, I'd definitely consider it.

For CSE, I'd personally choose Thapar. Engineering reputation, peer group and placement opportunities are generally stronger. LPU is good too, especially if fees/scholarship is a major factor, but if budget isn't an issue, Thapar would be my pick.

If you mean Panjab University (PU), Chandigarh, Group Discussions (GD) are mainly conducted for management/MBA admissions, not for most regular undergraduate programmes.
For the 2026–27 admission cycle, GD & PI are specifically part of:
- MBA (Sectoral) programmes at UIAMS, Panjab University.
- MBA at University Business School (UBS), Panjab University Regional Centre, Ludhiana, where GD & PI are also conducted.
So, if you're asking about BBA, B.Com, BA, BCA, etc., GD is generally not the standard admission process it depends on the specific programme and its admission notice. You can check the official Panjab University admission notices fo
