Graduating this year and watching this video invokes so much nostalgia. Good tips and as a fresh "aboout to be" passout, I would highly recommend you to explore Manipal. Build your own identity, groom your personality and above all remember to have fun. There will be lots of ups and downs, but after 4 years that all will become a memory you will cherish. Great Video and FC-2 will always remain special to me xD

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

I'm extremely glad you like the video. And thanks for the advice.

Hey bro… I just really wanna know that how many days you get as summer and winter vacation… I heard it’s like 2.5 months summer and 1 month winters… which so good to be true… what is it for MIT

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

I heard the same too. But as of now, we're still shifting from the COVID affected calender back to the normal one. So it's as if we have no holidays. But I guess we've shifted well enough now and if everything goes well, we should get a winter vacation. Just hoping for the best.

Hi there, My son got CCE in manipal main campus is there any big difference of curriculum in IT and CCE and also in job prospects. Thanks in advance. Loving your videos.

[@anushkapandey8420]

Bhaiya are placements for the ECE branch good ? And how much should I study to upgrade my branch after first year .. please tell .. btw very nice video 👌

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

Hey. The placements are very good for ECE. Some companies allow ECE people to sit for placements along with CSE people. So overall it's very good. To upgrade, you'll need a CGPA above 9. It's not very hard to achieve. You'll need some consistency that's all. All The Best

[@satishpatnaik5772]

How is Btech IT in MIT compare to Core CS .. is there any difference in placements

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

Placements are all the same. IT has a few subjects of electronics. IT has 3 labs per week and core CS has 4 labs per week (the max of any branch).

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

Hey. I'm in IT. I've heard the seniors say the mechanical branch is not very good. And also if you're focused on placements, then always go for CSE as mechanical placements won't be comparable to CSE anywhere.

My son has got admitted in cyber physical systems - a new course... And about extensive usage of drugs usage, . is what we hear.. Is it true.. Ur comments

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

As you mentioned, the course on cyber-physical systems is new. If I'm not mistaken, it came this year, so I don't think anybody can tell how the course is. And the talks about drug usage have always been there about Manipal. I've seen people who had the habit of drinking before coming to college, people who got addicted to drugs and alcohol after coming and some who never got involved in any of those. Personally, I don't drink or smoke or do drugs. I've been asked to drink and smoke before. And I refused, I was never forced into anything. Due to several pubs around, it's easier to get such stuff but it's completely your decision if you want to do it or not. All the best to your son.

EEE is an old branch. CPS just came this year. So no one can be sure of how the branch would be. But it comes under Electrical department as well. Just do some research on the branch.

Bro is branch change to ece or cce or data science possible or easy or very tough?

[@shriyahebbar3404]

Easy or tough totally depends on how u manage your studies, especially in mit..

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

Hey, toughness depends on how u plan ur schedules. The studies are not very hectic. If u can get a cgpa of 9 and above (could be lower too. But I'm telling u the safer option, these numbers are accd to what I think so please do not take them literally), you should be safe for a branch upgrade. But if u are not very good at academics, then it will be risky to depend on the upgrade.

Hey man. College and school are very different. But yeah I studied 11th and 12th properly and that was a very big help to me. But, the toughest part of college is to keep yourself from distractions. If u can do that with a fixed routine then you'll rock. All the best

Bhaiya how is Btech in biotechnology in manipal , how are the faculty and placements ,is it worth it?

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

Hey. The labs and all are world class and MIT has several foreign partner unis. There are several research opportunities should u choose to go in the path. So in that sense, it's good enough. Though I have 0 clue about the placements. If u need a good placement, choose a better branch. Definitely biotech is not the way to go

Blocks 5 and 6 have triple and double sharing rooms. They are like the old school hostels without AC, common bathrooms and all. Blocks 16,17 have single and double rooms. Both AC and non AC with attached bathrooms and not common bathrooms. Blocks 19,20 have 2 rooms with a common kitchen forming a unit and there are several such units.

Hi bhaiya,i have been allotted cce in manipal,is it worth it,and what about the placements?

If you have no better options, then go for this one. As there's always a chance to upgrade yourself either after the intra sliding round or after the first year with a good cgpa. And also CCE is not a very bad branch in itself. Statistically it has the same placements as CSE and IT. So there is no problem there.

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

I've heard Data Science course has been structured very well. I don't have much info on how the teaching is. Data Science is a very specialised branch. I would recommend u take generalised branches like CS if u get instead of data science for undergrad. But then if u don't have better choices or you're interested in the field. Then take it by all means. It will be worth it.

[@sriyansketavarapu1575]

I would say IT. The only reason being DSE is a very specialised branch and it's best to have as generalised a branch as possible for undergrad. But it depends on ur interest too. If you are really interested in DSE then go for it. And also just saying, don't reply to old comments as somehow youtube doesn't show them. Just put up a new comment I'll reply faster or else I'll have to manually search
