Why did MANIT Bhopal cutoff go down this year?

PS
Parveen Sindhu Posted On : November 8th, 2023
Studied at Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal

In 2017, all the NITS saw a drop in their cutoff ranks. The reason was the removal of class 12th boards percentage from JEE Mains rank calculation. 

Here is a simple example to get my point across-

  • Let’s assume there are 3 seats in IITs and 3 in NITs in 2016, and 26 candidates sit for JEE Advanced.This is how their ranks are placed-

A-1, B-2, C-3, D-4, E-5, F-6, G-7, and so on.

  • Till 2016, a lot of top performers of JEE Advanced lagged behind in JEE Mains because of their boards percentage. This created an irregular pattern for the JEE Mains ranking. For example, the JEE Mains rankings of those very students could have turned out like-

C-1, D-2, E-3, B-4, F-5, A-6, H-7, and so on.

Now, A,B,C took the 3 seats in IITs, and D,E,F got into NITs. So, the cutoff for IITs was 3, and that for NITs was 5 ( as F was the last one to get into NIT, with rank 5 in JEE Mains).

  • But in 2017, the JEE Mains rankings were quite similar to the JEE Advanced rankings. So, the rankings for those 26 students could look something like this in 2017-

B-1, D-2, A-3, C-4, F-5, E-6, K-8, and so on.

If A,B,C took IITs, and D,E,F got into NITs, the cutoffs for NITs was 6 ( as E with rank 6 was the last person to get in). 

Here, the cutoff went down by 1 rank. But when lakhs of students attempt an exam, such a change brings down the cutoffs by hundreds and thousands. 

This is the reason why MANIT Bhopal cutoffs went down from that year.

Why are there so many negative answers about MANIT Bhopal on Quora? Is the college that bad?

KP

Lives in Bhopal

MANIT Bhopal suffered from a lot of evils in the past. However, things are swiftly improving, and the present conditions are different. 

The director of MANIT has a strong vision, and his efforts have taken the institute in a positive direction. At present, attending classes has become mandatory. Those who fall short of 75% attendance won’t be allowed to write their exams. The administration has become strict, as opposed to the laid back attitude of the past. The fresher hostels and department buildings are newly built, and in good shape. 

The campus is spread across 650 acres. The college is located in the heart of Bhopal city, allowing easy access to coaching centers for GATE, GRE, CAT, etc. There are many clubs and societies at MANIT, and ragging has become almost negligible. The placements are really good for CS, and above average for other branches. 

Thus, MANIT Bhopal is a good college, and the negative reviews are now old and redundant.

What should be the preference order for the following: NIT Surathkal EEE, NIT Warangal EEE, NIT Trichy EEE, MANIT Bhopal (hometown) EE, MNNIT Allahabad EE, NIT Calicut EE, and MNIT Jaipur EE?

Lives in Allahabad

For EE/EEE, out of NIT Surathkal, NITW, NIT Trichy, MANIT Bhopal, MNNIT Allahabad, NIT Calicut, and MNIT Jaipur, I would suggest three institutes in the following order of preference-

  1. NIT Surathkal
  2. NIT Trichy
  3. NIT Warangal

My best friend is studying EEE at NITK and he is quite happy with the department. The teachers in the department are a bit strict. But if you bring up a good project idea and stay attentive in their class, you’ll be in a good position. Also, scoring good grades can be a bit tough, but with hardwork and good preparation, you will surely ace your exams. 

In terms of EEE placements, NITK, NIT Trichy, and NITW are all equally good options.

As a NITK student, you will get certain benefits. These are-

  1. NITK is the only institute in India to have a private beach.
  2. Among the three institutes that I have listed, NITK is the most suitable for people from other parts of India. Even though there is a 50% state quota, you will find plenty of North Indians and people from other parts of India. You will rarely face a language barrier because most people on campus understand English.
  3. You can showcase your technical skills at the IEEE technical club of NITK.
  4. Technites of ‘Engineer’, the techfest of NITK, does some brilliant work with electronics.

Thus, out of NIT Calicut, NITK, NITW, and all the other options listed by you, I would suggest you to choose NITK Surathkal for your EEE.

Some of my colleagues have completed their B.Tech CSE from MANIT Bhopal. 

Here are the key points based on their experience-

  1. MANIT CSE has the same placement records as CSE at top NITs and IITs. Try to make the most out of the opportunities provided to you.
  2. The seniors at the CSE department are very helpful.
  3. An important tip for you is to not indulge in any kind of quarrel with the locals. They do not allow the MANIT students to roam around or perform any kind of mischief outside of the college campus.
  4. The campus is quite huge, and cycling is the best way to move back and forth between the hostel and the classrooms.
  5. The CSE professors impart useful knowledge, so attend their classes regularly .
  6. In order to ace the placements, start competitive programming from semester 2 itself. 

Make the most of your stay at MANIT Bhopal and study hard from the first year itself. If you do this, you’ll find CSE at MANIT to be quite good.

How is MANIT Bhopal for MCA?

SB
Shivani Bansal Posted On : November 8th, 2023
Studied at Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal

As a student of MCA at MANIT Bhopal, here is my experience of this college-

From the point of view of an MCA student, this college has nothing special to offer. It is just a normal college. The classes and labs are decent, and the faculty is average. Only a few of the teachers are worthy of admiration. Do not expect much from the faculty.

The hostel facilities aren’t top notch for boys. However, a hostel has been functioning exclusively for PG boys since 2019. For girls, the hostel facilities are decent. There is a lack of friendly interactions among students for different courses. 

The placements are decent for MCA. With average technical, and excellent communication skills, you’ll get an offer for sure. But to get placed, you must have secured 60-65% in your 10th, 12th, UG and PG. If you do not fulfill this requirement, your possibility of getting placed will be very low.

Bhopal is very beautiful and enchanting. You’ll learn a lot at MANIT, and these experiences will help you throughout your life.
