- The beauty of the campus can't be expressed in words. The campus is awesome. It has 3 hills and 7 lakes inside the campus. The mighty Brahmaputra river flows by the campus and is just 15 metres away.
- The peer group is one of the best in India. The sports and hostel facility is the best among all IITs.
Dislikes
- Far from main town. The campus is situated about 20 km from Guwahati station. But you can take ferry which hardly tale 10 minutes to cross the river.

I am currently in Data Science and AI department at IIT GUWAHATI. To get here I had to clear JEE ADVANCED and secure 881 rank. Since it's a new branch it gets closed around 920 rank but in the upcoming years, it will get closed soon around 600-700 rank as AI and Data Science is in boom around us. The exam for JEE Advanced is conducted every year. After getting your rank, you go through the JOSAA counseling process in which you can be allotted a DSAI branch at IITG.
