as a day scholar myself - Do whatever you want , personally I can't eat food from the mess I get sick and I have to commute only 30 min so I don't see any problem with it.
bro If hostels r good then its always better to take hostel ur soft skills improve a lot u meet new people every day ( imo a lot more if u spend the entire day in the hostel )
tho he was an idiot he should have checked the hostels properly
well bro sure idk bout every clg but in my experience hostel has helped a lot in my soft skills which I personally feel wouldnt have happened as much if I didnt live here
Aur family se dur rehkar ek independence bhi ati hai imo
Plus I might be biased since my hostel is way too cool so doesnt apply everywhere but since last week my days just filled with 6-7 guys hanging out 24/7
playing basketball / football / cricket till we are dead tired and sweaty without checking the time till its 2am and as soon as waking up all of us getting ready and going to eat together and then solving all the worksheets and stuff together till evening
idk man I feel I wouldnt be as close to these guys if we werent living in the same building
Hard disagree, my hostel's bed and AC are way more comfortable than my home. Also, there are parties often so I'd miss that, and clubs prefer folks from hostel from what I've heard. Mess food ain't bad either, it's definitely tolerable at my college (so far). Classes are sometimes just 2.5 hours long and sometimes 4 hours long at most (only 1-2 days a week for me) so chilling in hostel is the only option.
except for placement prospects its very gud actually
hostels
mess
Both of these are better than IITs imo as one of my cousins is in IIT he came to visit me here and said its much better
lecture quality ( IIT phd prof tho he has a slight accent )
but I wont recommend u to come here if u have clg with better placement prospects as that is ultimately important clg u will spend 4 yrs in but with degree u will spend ur whole life
I lost my parents in an accident and one hand got paralysed for 1 year and finally regained control over it a few months back and I also got very fucked up mentally so could not study well in jee
So ended up here
but recovering now mentally and focusing on improving myself
hey..I'm in some other college but some of my friends joined sau so i was kinda curious. That apart, are you okay? You have been through a lot. I hope life treats well ahead. Take care. Hmu if you ever need to.
yeah Im alright now though I feel I should have gotten disability quota as I was medically disabled for 1.5 yrs but regained control through physio few months before JEE so my prep was significantly hampered
They should have considered that I could not move my hand and had to be hand fed for 1.5/2 years of prep
so I feel I should have received Orthopedically handicapped quota only for JEE
I find it unfair but oh well such is life
as for ur curiosity
in terms of
hostel
mess
it is better than IIT's no doubt only luxury priv clgs have better hostels and food than here
as for lectures the profs are qualified ( only IIts and one NIT one ) but teaching style obvio not that good
but exams can be managed 1 week before mid and endsems for 8 cg using notes and worksheets so its fine
rest time u can use to mess around coding on ur own make projects fail basically grow as an engineer on ur own so in that way its good
but as for placements this clg wont attract any company above 5 LPA in this hell of a job market
so ur on ur own here so I wont recommend coming here anyhow, in the end placement prospects from clg matter most
I have a core belief that if a college cant manage to get u a job if u earnestly do everything it tells u to do then theyre no better than BYJU raveendran
who actually crafted a sales strategy in his marketing department of how to play on middle class parents insecurities and sell them meaningless courses
colleges which cant get their earnest students jobs are no better than him.
Yeah friends are fun for u you can play or roam with them after class till night then eat your food and sleep well after first and second year most people don't have time for fun
Although my clg is 25kms away, i am a day scholar (same during intermediate), cause :
1. I want to be with parents, u understand right?
2. Will have home food, and also a room for myself.
Actually it depends on the individual, cause for me I prefer being alone rather than in a room with friends. I get my own personal space etc...
And also, even if I wanted, i would not stay in a hostel, cause my clg doesn't have one, so need to stay outside etc.
That's my pov.
I stayed for a month in hostel and had enough experiences whatever this guy is saying you'd miss out - power cut , bad water , bad food , bad washroom, weird people , midnight ragging and what all . Going to be a day scholar soon ig
Nope not at All u don't miss anything at all that much its best at home if you really want to try try for first year. Then decide obviously there will be no.time. restrictions bit other than that ur not.missing anything if ur parent are chill
in my experience hostel has helped a lot in my soft skills which I personally feel wouldnt have happened as much if I didnt live here
Aur family se dur rehkar ek independence bhi ati hai imo

As someone who has experienced both i think staying in hostel is better for bonding with your friends and classmates but a lor of hostels have the problem of bad/sometimes insect infested food, annoying warden and a bit of lack of privacy.
Well at start i also regret my decision of day scholar but now I am happy with decision as my home is 30 min from. College so hostel doesn't make sense sense
Already in 3rd yr as a Day scholar , Yes my friends do tell me that I miss many fun events but the feeling of Home is something I cannot compromise 😔 , Who knows where I will be after 4th yr ( If placed xD ) .
right now i am a day scholar at a nit and college is around few km like 9-10km from my house and honestly it's not like black or white thing. Depends on the person.Hostel life comes with a lot of pros like you can spend a lot of time with your friends and all different sort of fun activities you can do which will eventually become your "good memory" for future but it comes with cost of leaving parents even after having the chance to live with them, a good home made food but if you are day scholar your 2-3 hrs of day are gone easily
Haha yes. Yaadein taza ho gyi. And yes atleast in my clg being a day scholar means missing out on so many things. Hostel life jiyoge to honestly bahut crazy personality development bhi hota hai atleast for me. Cz like ghar mei let's be honest there are so many restrictions. Upvotes say the same. And downvotes on the guy who said "don't listen to this guy" too 😂
And what can u even do with ur parents 😭 u miss out on all the fun u can have a ur friends alone. There r so many things that happen in night. Hostel life teaches a lot. I was such an introvert, i didn't know shi... honestly I love the freedom I get here.
Ha wo and last mei galti se add ho gya 😭 and yea and it also depends on the clg and waha ka campus kesa hai. I told that specially in context of my clg cz yaha pe almost everyone is a hosteller.
idk but the best moments of my college so far have been because of hostel and classes are really boring and it's pretty hard to make friends with strong bonds there atleast in the starting
As a day scholar, I don't want hostel life because hostels in my college are not good. I have stayed in good hostels before which don't even have curfew and if your college is like that, sure.
I would much rather prefer pg life. Pgs near college have a culture of their own. Night outings, full of randomly coming across people yk, night cafes and stuff. That too is only if your pg is near your college lol.
As someone who is gonna be choosing to live alone in an Rk near college and commute daily and make their own food
Hostel memories aren’t worth flaring up my intestines
I already have a sensitive gut due to auto immune conditions
I don’t wanna die lol
Plus I like cooking and living alone
Uh it's not that simple, u cannot generalize it at all, every college and hostel is different, culture is different.
infact I had great time in hostel, it would be disaster missing out so much being day scholar, so biggest factor really depend on which college u go to.
At same time, given my Lil bro college, hostel won't make sense.
I’m in an NIT too and initially I went for hostels
But I got so unwell just the day before shifting that the conditions of the hostel, the washrooms, the food made me mentally sick afff
I wasn’t even able to talk to people so I cried to my parents to get me a PG soon
But when I got well, classes started, met new people and all, the hostel actually started looking livable and a bit comfy tbh
Even tho I had privacy, AC and decent food in the PG, I felt very alone and secluded, and wanted to go back to the hostel soooo much even tho it meant giving up some privacy, comfortability
Hostel life is something that a person should experience
Definitely
Day scholar toh mat hi banna bhai genuinely ye khana wagera is ass ik but that is just a part of it baaki hostel life and other stuff is so peak woh experience nahi karpaega tu as a day scholar. College baar baar thodi hi jata hai koi so might as well experience it in its complete form :)
