HOW TO DECIDE YOUR COLLEGE?



BIG QUESTION: BRANCH OR COLLEGE?
Now that you have got your ranks, first of all you have to decide whether you will prefer branch or the college.
This question has been raised by the students for long and will be continued in future.
MY SUGGESTION: I will say if you should prefer branch if you have any particular interests in any field.
Also, if you have plans for getting a job after graduation you must prefer branch.
But if you will be definitely going for an M.B.A. after the college, you may prefer college but don't settle for very low branches.

Next What?
Now find last year's cut-off ranks for different colleges for your branch or your colleges at the comedk website or click here.
Select 6 or 7 colleges where you stand at your rank.
Compare these colleges from the top 20 rank list on my website or anywhere.
But don't just decide on this ranking or any other rankings on internet,
But though I have tried to give you the best ranking after doing a lot of researches for my admission, last year.
Make a priority list.

How to decide?
So, you have your priority list. Now do some googling and find various articles at different forums about your colleges.
Contact seniors at these forums and take their opinions. I will be giving you addresses of some of these forums at the end of this article.
Make some social contacts on facebook or any other social sites on different pages of these colleges.
Contact if any of your relatives or friends studies in some engineering college at Bangalore.
Advices of these people are important but also remember,
They may mislead you, as students of lower ranked colleges tie up with management to bring admissions for them in turn of monetary benefits.

When you come for Counselling:
Schedule you journey three days in advance of the counselling dates and use this time to visit the college personally.
Talk with the faculties and definitely talk with students studying. This is the most important step.
So, finalise your priority list well in advance before going to counselling.

Day of Counselling:
Go to the counselling venue at the time of an earlier session so that you don't get late.
Don't pay heed to any of the gossips going at the counselling venues.
Stick to your priority list.
It has been observed that students make wrong decisions at the college centre.

General advise to comedk candidates:



1. Attend 2nd counselling positively as high rank slide occurs.

2. If you don't have any choice about branch, I suggest you to take Computer Science branch.
  CSE/ISE branch students of top 20 colleges usually don't face problems for placement.

3. Information Science branch is almost similar to Computer Science branch. You will only find a change in two or three subjects.

4. ECE is also one of the top branches in Bangalore, but usually half of the students end up in IT companies.
  But still you must consider this branch if you have interests in electronics.

5. Go to the counselling venue at the time of a session before so that you don't get late.

6. Don’t pay heed to any of the gossips going at the counselling venues.

7. Stick to your priority list.

8. It has been observed that students make wrong decisions at the college centre.

9. Counselling procedure is very smooth. Don't forget to take the challan of bank D.D. with you or you may have to go out for making an affidavit,
Which may result you in losing your session and it may lead you to lower colleges.

10. Keep all the Xerox documents and ensure that all the documents are correct in order.

11. Stay Calm. Be relaxed.
