How are the mechanical placements at SVNIT Surat?

As per the 2022 statistics, out of 219 registered B.Tech Mechanical students, 174 were successfully placed. The highest package offered was 18.45 LPA, and the average package stood at 8.81 LPA. 3.60 LPA was the lowest package offered during that year.

Now, as a former student of the department, I would advise you to secure at least 6.5 CGPA by the end of your degree. To be safe, try for 7 CGPA and above. Try to get 8 and above in your first year, and maintain 6.5 and above in the remaining years. Scoring is comparatively easier in the first year.

To ace your technical interview round, have basic knowledge of all your Mechanical subjects. The companies might be open to 60% scorers, but the final shortlist will only contain the names of those who would’ve scored at least 65%-70% (depending on the number of applicants). 

The reputable and high paying companies will have higher competition, and consequently, higher cutoffs. Have a good grasp over the core concepts of your interest, and try to participate in extracurricular activities. Keep up with the current affairs. Study with utmost dedication and sincerity.

The placements for Mechanical are top notch at SVNIT, afterall it is an NIT. But it is you who needs to be up to the mark to qualify for decent paying companies.
