    Other: Quite innovative, some faculty (usually young ones) welcome new ideas. 100 % placement. College will definitely give you a fine education should you choose to attend. Professors are accessible and open, and professors give out their home numbers with regularity. People are generally pretty friendly, although you might get sick of the lack of a significant social scene. It has a good national reputation with strong Alumni networks. You will be prepared to work with top multinationals.

    Consider the truth. IIT is the best and bestest.
    Placements: It was amazing to be at IIT Bombay. The environment was the best, and placements were awesome. The average package was 19.5 LPA, good enough. Recruiting companies were good and famous enough. Many students got placements. The mess was also good. The best college I have ever seen.
    Infrastructure: The best faculty and facilities I have ever seen. I chose a private hostel which was well-maintained and not as costly. IIT was my dream, and I loved having it. There were labs and a library with Wi-Fi. There was more practical knowledge. You can become what you want.
    Faculty: The pass percentage was not too high, and IIT teachers were kind, gentle, and polite. The faculty was experienced. The teachers focused on practical knowledge, not theory. It has been a wonderful experience at IIT. Thank you, IIT, for giving me the opportunity to excel through IIT.
