LNCT Bhopal is one of the most popular and reputed colleges in our country and the rules and regulations of this college are very strict. 

The class timing for freshers is from 9 AM till 3:30 PM. The first-year students are not allowed to leave the college for half-day and if there is something serious then you can get a gate pass from your HOD by explaining your reason after which you will be allowed to exit the college. 

But from the second year onwards you will get a break from 12:00 PM to 12:40 PM so you can relax and spend some time with your friends.

No, LNCT Bhopal does not come under the best 100 colleges of India. In the 2020 ranking of NIRF, it was ranked 251-300. However, in 2021, it was ranked 50th for private engineering by India Today. 

If you are looking for good placements, you can go for LNCT, since it has a good placement record. However, irrespective of the good placement record and the brand value it still has some issues that need to be addressed.

The faculty base is not that great. The faculty here focuses just on the theory part instead of imparting practical knowledge to the students.

Also, there is no environment for programming in the college and students have to pay extra and learn the programming languages for placements. 

So before getting admission, do thorough research on the institute.

The EC Branch at LNCT is not as good as CS or IT branch. You should rather opt for another private college if you do not will to be a regular. 

• You will be obligated to maintain a 75% attendance. Failure of which is met by serious repercussions and expulsion from placement session. 
• If you have sketched out your college life as fun, lively, and full of adventure then you are requested to rethink your decision. You would not be able to spare much time from your college schedule for your skill development. 
• The co-curricular activities and various other programs are held here too but that does not add up to your development in any way.
• As for the placement opportunities, you should not be keeping high hopes. Most of the companies that visit LNCT are mainly for recruiting qualified students in the IT field. 

Other than C and C++ it would rather be essential to learn technologies. This might add up to your already hectic series of academics. In the EC branch, the students are not provided with decent high-paying job opportunities other than the average packages. 

Hence, you should consider other private institutes as well if you do want to regret your decision. The CSE branch is terrific here and without hesitation, you can opt for it.

LNCT is one of the best private institutes in central India. It has world-class facilities, great infrastructure, well-equipped laboratories, and libraries along with a student-friendly campus all contribute greatly to the overall development.

Computer Science is one of the most sought branches of the institute with excellent career prospects and job opportunities in the future. You will also have a chance for securing a job in top MNCs. Major companies like Wipro, Cognizant, Amdocs, Infosys, DXC, Accenture, TCS, and many others come regularly to recruit from the institute. For 2021 batch, the highest package offered was 19.5 LPA by VMWARE

The curriculum followed is up-to-date with the standards of RGPV. The faculty members are well-qualified and provides quality teaching.

There are hostel facilities available for First-year students and it is comparatively superior to all colleges in the city. LNCT has a reputation for having a good discipline, this helps them to maintain a superior quality of education too. You can see the same discipline in the Hostel facility and it makes up for a very good environment to be productive.

The Hostel has rules and regulations of its own for you to follow. The facility is optional. You may or may not choose to live on campus. You need to follow the rules and not damage any property, it will be a smooth sail for you then. The campus also follows a strict anti-ragging policy so your stay is safe.

There are various facilities available if you choose to live on campus:

• The mess serves 4 meals a day with a slight variation in the menu. You can avail these meals complimentary with your accommodation.
• There is a TV room for entertainment purposes
• There is a reading room for students to work together in groups and also do some light reading or studying
• You can play Table tennis, badminton, football, Cricket in the TT room or on the ground.
• There is a gym too but you will be charged extra if you choose to sign up for it.

You should definitely choose to live on campus because you will find the best people there and make friends for a lifetime. Also, making memories while you are still in college is still something we all want.

Both LNCT Bhopal and OIST Bhopal have gained a reputation among other engineering colleges in Madhya Pradesh. Here are some of the reasons why.

• Both the institutes are among the oldest engineering colleges in Bhopal, and in light of this fact, the academic depth crucially slopes higher with respect to their age of establishment.
• In fact, the major upside both institutes boast is their infrastructure and faculty strength, unlike many other institutes.
• The placement reports, most essentially, are booming, regardless of present circumstances.

However, when compared there are no such differences between LNCT Bhopal and OIST Bhopal.

Pros of LNCT:

• LNCT Bhopal, recently, improved its disciplinary and management strategies. OIST Bhopal, on the other hand, also has its own management yet it is not as it used to be.
• The placements of LNCT have been better than OIST for the last few years now. The reason behind this is their TPO, who earlier was associated with Oriental. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at the institute is 3.5 LPA, while the highest CTC offered was 21 LPA.
• However, in placement numbers, OIST still beats LNCT due to the mass recruitment of TCS.

Cons of LNCT:

• Regardless of their disciplinary actions, LNCT does mandate an attendance requirement until the final year, which is severely hard to maintain.
• It is quite transparent as to why students have a hard time preparing for exams like GATE or CAT.
• The technical and cultural fests are quite infrequent, as opposed to what is in OIST Bhopal. However, this is not as crucial as the other aspects of the institute.

Nonetheless, if you are opting between the both, LNCT Bhopal has an upper hand, even though by only a few pointers. But, given the scenario, there are no greatly noticeable differences between the two institutes, except only a few handfuls.

Many top companies such as Wipro, Tech Mahindra, Infosys, Cognizant, and others visit the campus of LNCT Bhopal for placements. To secure a job in any of these companies, you should have a degree of 7+ and you need to clear written, technical, HR. 

Preparation Tips - Written:

To clear the written test, it would be better if you can join institutes like T.I.M.E. This wouldn't be like University exams which can be cleared by studying for one day or two. Here you have to prepare very hard for Aptitude, Logical Reasoning & English as all of these are very important to clear the written.

Preparation Tips - Technical: 

To clear technical, you must have proper knowledge of programming languages like C++, Java, MySQL, Oracle and subjects like Operating System, DBMS, Data Structure, Software Engineering Object-Oriented Programming, Computer Networks. Some questions may be asked from these subjects during your interview, so prepare for these subjects very well. 

Preparation Tips - HR:

In this round, your communication skills and your IQ level will be tested, so prepare for this round very well. Also some. Also, there are group discussion sessions for some companies, so prepare for that too.

Being an engineering student at LNCT, I realized the following things about the life of a student in an engineering college.

1. You will not have a college life because of too many quizzes, assignments, exams, viva, practical exams held in the college.
2. If your branch is anything other than IT and CSE, you better start looking out for opportunities elsewhere, because only IT companies participate in the recruitment drives on campus. 
3. Students with core engineering cannot find decent opportunities for roles related to their branch of studies.
4. A 75% attendance will become very tough to maintain. You need to think a hundred times before taking leave or missing a class.

But, among these at least the faculty is said to be promising but the students disagree. As the college has a mixture of good and average professors. It is a basic expectation for students to have a good, experienced faculty and mentors, a comfortable environment to study, and receive the necessary facilities.
