West Bengal

Well dear, there are hundreds of Engineering Colleges in West Bengal whereas few for Medical. In 2009, the total number of Engineering seats were 20,077 and I think 5,000 were added again that year. However, last year counselling was gone upto 60,000. Even I have seen candidate with 59,000 rank getting good college like- IMPS College of Engineering, Malda. In 2010 Government has announced addition of 20,000 more seats which he has fulfilled. Simultaneously raising the number of Medical seats to 2,000 from 1200. But as far as we have seen last year councelling almost 40,000 Engineering seats were there whereas for Medical it was 1200 (approximately). In 2010 Government has announced to increase the number of Medical seats from 1200 to 2000 but as far as I concern there is no increase in seats till now. May be we can see those hike in 2011 councelling. One of the reason behind such few number of seats is there are very few Medical colleges in West Bengal there are 14 Medical Colleges including Dental out of which 5 are government.

SBIHMSM (SBIHM School of Management)
PCMT (Pailam College of Management and Technology)
IMS (Institute of Management Studies)
These all are private colleges.
As for the eligibility criteria, you need to clear the entrance exam that is held by the institution, in which you have an aptitude test. Questions asked are statistics, popular destinations in the state, Indian as well as global current affairs, etc. If you clear the entrance exam, then you have to appear in the group discussion round, where an on-spot topic is given and you have to discuss it with the fellow members. Speaking skills are most important for the tourism industry.
At last, if you qualify this, there is a personal interview round where the management people or the examiners ask you about your interest for the subject and your personal behaviour towards everyone.
Whichever college you consider going to, make sure about the placement that they offer, because work experience is the most important thing for the tourism industry.
