The various parameters includes Fluency, Grammatical errors, elaboration of the concept, Clarity in thought process, Confidence, General Awareness, and leadership quality. In LPU when you sit for an MBA interview there are 2 panelists one from the core domain and the other from soft skills to assess you on speaking skills. Both the panelists will be rating you on the competency and a score will be generated. On the basis of the cut-off score only you will be considered as qualified or not. Hence, whatever is the specialization that you are wishing to opt for the faculty of the core domain will be checking you on that and keeping in mind the above competencies stated. And Yes, you will be checked about the General Awareness so you need to keep yourself up to date. You will be asked questions related to your graduation degree and what made you go for MBA as well. So, kindly prepare the justification for that. So, all the best. Stay confident and answer the questions logically keeping the above-stated factors in mind.

LPU, choosing it is up to you.

Placements: Maximum people get placed in our college, the highest might go till crores. The highest went around 1 CPA and two are placed, one is from Robotics and Automation and the other is M. Tech guy. The lowest would be 3-4 LPA and most get placed through mass recruitment by companies averaging around 5-6 LPA. Companies include Google, TCS, Microsoft, Wipro and many, but the good companies hire the best students’ skills on upper preference as compared to GPA and the others hire Teach Mahindra, Eazy Diner, etc.

Infrastructure: Labs are good, you get Wi-Fi facility at good speed in both college and hostel. Library is amazing, has a lot of books and even a good place to study; silence is a must. Classrooms are decent. Hostel facilities are decent. Rooms get cleaned often. Mess food might be good some days but will start to hate it. Canteen is good. College is really outstanding when it comes to sports. Inter-hostel tournaments happen. Olympic size swimming pool exists. Two big cricket grounds. Sports complex exists where you can play badminton, basketball, boxing, fencing, volleyball, and even martial arts.

Faculty: Like most, teachers teach okay, because it is up to you to prepare when it comes to exams. Some teachers just glide through the PPTs, there are some teachers who are highly qualified but still you would not be able to understand their lectures. Teaching is average. Course curriculum is relevant but I don’t think it is industry relevant, they taught PHP in one semester which is outdated. Semester exams are moderate to easy. Most people pass around 80 percent. You can even ace an exam by preparing 2 days prior to the exam and it depends on your intellectual thing.

Other: There is a lot of crowd, literally a lot, you might feel congested at some times when the classes get over after 5. But the fests, exposure you get to meet a lot of friends across all states in India. You can improve your social network. Extracurricular activities are good, you can dance, sing, do art and all stuff. There is a separate building for this in our college. You get a decent scholarship and also the fees is less as compared to that of other private colleges.

Absolutely satisfied with faculty, good placements in 2022, and really good infrastructure.

Placements: Almost 80 percent of the students are placed in this course. The highest package is around 56 LPA. Average package varies every year, and the recent graduated batch average package is around 8 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple visit the campus to hire students. At last of the course, all students received an internship offer.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the university is in top-notch condition. This is the biggest university in India. All labs and library are well-equipped with air conditioning. Classrooms are well-maintained. Food is ok for South people, but it looks like somewhat difficult to survive on this food. They provide 24X7 medical facility.

Faculty: Faculty at this university are well-educated and knowledgeable. Many professors are very friendly to the students. Teaching quality is also good. Every student is happy with the curriculum provided by the college. In point of difficult level of exams, I think sometimes we feel it's difficult and some other times it is not like that.

Other: The best thing I observed in this course is the curriculum. There is nothing to improve in this course. We have top-notch events and good connectivity. Scholarships are there to help students who can't pay their fees.

Medical facilities are available at any time.

Very good infrastructure and facilities. Good placements, campus life, and facilities are excellent.

Placements: It depends on the performance of the student whether he/she can get placed, as the competition is very high. The highest package is around 45 to 50 LPA, the lowest is 5 to 6 LPA, and the average is 10 to 11 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, etc.

Infrastructure: Facilities of the classes are very good. Labs are also very good, and library facilities are excellent. Wi-Fi is good, but sometimes, due to the large number of students, the network goes down. Hostel facilities are very good. Mess food and canteen are also very good. Medical support is available 24x7. For sports, we have an auditorium where you can play games and sports.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable in their respective fields. Whenever we cannot understand, we can ask anything in their cabins when available. Teaching quality is excellent. The course curriculum is relevant and very good to make students ready for industry. Semester exams are moderate, though if your basics are clear, then you will be able to clear, otherwise not.

Other: On campus, almost 5 to 6 events and fests are organized where you can participate in Hackathons, Singing, and many more. If you have good marks in JEE or Class 12, then you can get around 40 to 45 percent scholarship. In addition, there is LPU NEST, which is LPU’s own entrance exam. If you get above 280 marks, then you will be able to get 35 to 45 percent scholarship in tuition fees.

The best infrastructure this college has, alongwith very good placements.

Placements: More than 605 students placed in our batch so far. The highest package is 53 LPA from Microsoft, the lowest is 5 LPA from Capgemini, and the average is 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Microsoft, GoDaddy, GoComet, Firecompass, Broadridge, etc. 40 percent of students are placed at internships from our batch from the 2nd year itself from LPU. They got internships from other companies like QuickHeal Academy. Security analyst, Penetration tester, Malware analyst, etc., are the top roles offered.

Infrastructure: On our campus, all facilities are very good. But sometimes we have Wi-Fi speed issues in some blocks, not in labs. The library is open from 8:00 AM to 12:00 AM. Classrooms are digital for every class, we need a laptop mainly for CSE. Faculty are good. In the hostel, most of the facilities are very good, but a few times we have issues with the electricity bill at the end of the year. The gym is present inside the hostels, which is also free. The mess food is good in taste and unlimited. But the mess fee and hostel fee are paid separately.

Faculty: Teachers for our batch were industry mentors. So, they are very calm, patient, well-trained with practical knowledge, and treated us kindly. Exams are conducted very frequently here. But qualified faculty helped us to pass those exams very easily. In teaching, they provide us with industry materials, labs, study guides, PPTs, projects, etc. Teachers are always online, so doubts are cleared easily. The course is very relevant for us for the fee we paid. Placements became easy due to the industry tie-up curriculum only. The pass percentage is 40 percent in exams. The exam level is moderate to difficult. We can pass by studying easily.

Other: I personally chose this course because of my interest in cybersecurity, and was not very interested in coding like DSA. The best thing about our course is the CompTIA certification. Grade mapping for our subjects is available if these certifications are passed. So, we became good at fundamentals and scored well in 4 years because of certification. I wish the semester could be extended by some more days. The semester here is of a very short duration, with only 4 months per semester. Frequent events always take place on campus. So, the campus is always joyful, with crowds, talents, and student efforts. For events and fests, this campus is the best.
