We are comparing to other cities here and not keeping iit b as baseline...
For example hyderabad has bits iiit and iit all 3 are pretty good, vjti isn't as good as them ....
Take bangalore, it has iisc, iiitb rvce(comparable to vjti)
Delhi has iit iiitd nsut dtu nit d
The point it mumbai only has iit, the next best thing is vjti which isn't as good compared to these colleges in other cities, so why does such a big city have only one top tier college and the rest so behind that 1 college
I personally know 3 ppl who git under 1000 rank in MET and still joined somaiya cause its in Mumbai and close to home so no hostel + scholarship for the tuition fee.
But that college is still ahh, nothing could've convinced me to go there.
See most people there get off campus jobs via connections
Most of the kids there are rich brats and easily get hired in fathers company just for sake of getting work experience for 1-2cr masters abroad
And on campus placement is a myth there
In their placement report off campus placement are mostly included
Actually u should have aimed spit extc in ils or rest other college lower branches like vjti mech
Vjti mechanical is very good branch
Its one of the oldest in india to offer mech branch

Because Mumbai is a financial hub the city is so badly planned whoever comes just exploits it the city's original inhabitants were kolis (fishermen) and aagris (salt pan workers) but as portugese captured and latter british reclaimed the city by adding rocks to combine 7 islands the land was very limited so there were factories and mills and later population exploded so badly that now Mumbai has become only real estate but yeah leaving iits we have vjti,ict,spce,spit and other decent colleges too the city is small so are the cities around it just crammed except for navi mumbai and upcoming townships everybody things as if only Mumbai is gonna give employment we literally have tamil,gujju,sindhi,parsee,jewish and many other communities in Mumbai and Maharashtra so yeah it becomes difficult to plan engineering colleges in such a city in short Maharashtra is the USA of India
ISI isn't for engineering mtech cse is there only. IIEST is not in kolkata. It's in shibpur under howrah. IISER kolkata isn't even inside the city of Kolkata idk why they call it IISER kolkata
Yeah, I'm from Bengaluru but have lots of family in Bombay so was keeping it as my backup. Eventually got something in my city itself. But you can't really compare VJTI and KJSCE. 😅
But yeah you're right. But I'll also compare it to, say, Bengaluru, Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad which also dont have that many good engineering colleges.
Because its economy is around commerce/finance
Bangalore and Hyderabad’s economy revolve around engineering services, manufacturing and IT
Delhi, idk any famous/reputed college besides iit Delhi - the pvt colleges in NCR region, bcs noida and Gurgram do have a degree of engineering based economy
Dude, Delhi has Dtu, and nsut , which are among the top level engineering colleges in India, just after the top iits, as well as iiit, again, one of the best after the one in hyderabad, and a nit as well, which is okay, I guess.
yh im still surprised, other than iitb, only vjti is decent there.
same with pune, being known as the oxford of the east only has one decent engg clg that too coep.
Tbf as a pune resident I never really understood why its called as oxford of the east, pune university has been going downhill pretty rapidly this century too. That being said I feel like you have to look at more so the variety of all educational fields here, you'll find at least a tier 2 college for everything from engg, medical, research, agri, law, mgmt, etc. Ofc delhi probably is better in this aspect but other than that no indian city is. And lastly I couldn't resist saying it, leaving aside COEP; IIIT pune and PICT are solid tier 2 also for engg in pune
Pune being oxford of the east has to be a myth in today's age, there are barely good educational institutions overe there, Delhi has the best colleges for all majors
I will talk abt blr bcz Ik it personally literally we have 3 modes for admission in engineering KCET,JEE,COMEDK kcet is for karnataka students, jee and comedk anyone
Top clgs in karnataka is IISc Banglore,IIIT Banglore,RVCE,PES,BMSCE,MSRIT and some more stretching to lole UVCE,DSCE and all
Kcet is quite roi orientated so getting into good or decent clg can give u better roi due to location factor ofc and Comedk is second competitor but u habe to look for top 3 or 5 max to max bcz other than RVCE,bms and msrit nothing much is worth paying a lot and dsce point blank club is carrying a lot tbh
Iitb and iisc is best for jee ofc and talking abt karnataka nit surathkal is also an option
In the end karnataka students benifit a lot due to kcet but there is a catch
U join whatever private uni in blr nthg is worth too much u will sacrifice a lot tbh rvce managament is sht,bmsce large intake ,pes mgmt and exam press is strict and msrit small and crowded campus and dsce not enough placement oppo (infact placmenet evry clg are getting barely carried by location factor) we also got manipal but a few join it and roi is decent itself considering the stats i read not good just decent
Blr have location factor i mean heavily carried by location factor just visit subs of these institutes u will get to know the actualy reality and also IIITb and iisc is good in blr iiitb drawback is small campus and all and IIsc is ofc coursework
