Dude these private colleges like VIT, Manipal, Lovely etc suck big time. Read some threads in TDF, few members over there have shared their experiences. If you just want to enjoy & do nothing good about engineering then join these colleges & spend buttload of money simply.
I am from K'taka & I had given exam for manipal entrance. I was eligible for CS, but I didn't go for it. If I remember correctly the fee was something around 20 lakhs [for full 4 years]. Had a friend who graduated from there told not to join unless no colleges are accepting me. All they have is flashy videos & advertisements, but no good professors. But they do have a kickass library. The environment is also quite good. Still I ditched the idea & joined an autonomous engineering college, a free seat through my CET. My total fee for fours now is around 1.5lakhs :evilgrin39:
Even when I started hunting for my MTech, I got similar response. Unless no college is accepting me, then only I should opt for these.
And there are few good ones like BITS, IIIT etc.
TLDR, don't think about VIT, Manipal etc unless you have no other options.
PS : whatever happened to NIFT :devil:
Oh. Well, I still don't know how you're talking soo much crap, when you studied from an autonomous college. I'm studying in Manipal brother.
At first I thought this was gonna be it, I should have taken one of the other courses at the lesser known NITs itself, but honestly, after coming here, I'm a changed man. The opportunities you get here, the variety of people from the whole frig country plus soo many nationalities, communicating with them, keeping tabs with dozen other people from different countries through organisations like AIESEC, getting an internship in the first year, international through IAESTE(have you even heard of these? HUh?), starting a photoblog from the university and receiving such a huge response(100,000 views in 3 months buddy, a personal blog, yes), having soo many start-ups from students here all with brilliant ideas(no flipkart)
it's not IIT I agree(of course it isnt), and BITS is of higher grade, this college, I would put directly below BIT Mesra(after BITS) and to be completely honest with you, I would prefer you stop crapping any more without you knowing ANYTHING.
Thank you. I never meant to be offensive but he started it.
Oh, and the fees is 12 lacks(tuition fees, food at a quality food court, no kidding, awesome hostels, great facilities, seriously google for "MARENA" and u'll be surprised), it would be 20 lacks for you if you failed 2 years.
EDIT: Lovely sucks, even Lovely students say so.
