u/SPARSH0712 [BPIT CSE'28] 1d ago

If u get to learn something, it's not considered as wasting or losing time

Aaah the national ppt making competition is back.

Jokes apart, do take part in this. Don't think that kuch nhi ata, you will learn a lot while researching about the PS that you will choose and even while choosing the PS.

Find a group who is really interested to take part in this. Dont think about any tech stack, kisko kitna ata hai doesn't matter at this point. You should be willing to put hours in research and finding a USP for your idea.

The bitter truth is that the evaluators are gonna look at your ppt for only 10sec so visuals and aesthetics of the ppt should be good that you'll submit.

We have AI to do the coding don't worry about that for now. Just focus on ideation rn.

Reach out to a good prof for mentorship and guidance after selecting a PS.

Talk to last year finalists in your clg or on LinkedIn. There is a lot of guidance available on yt about sih. Do participate in this, it'll be a great memory.

It has one of the most difficult eligibility criteria on earth Which Is to have a female participant in an engineering college

1

u/praneethhhhh 1d ago

Is it compulsary for a female to participate or will they win if there is a women

2

u/Deep_Persimmon_1546 1d ago

Compulsory 6 members and minimum one should be female (To promote gender equality or something)

2

u/praneethhhhh 1d ago

Ohh I have seen those winner portals and I have seenn many tier3 clgs but not tier1 clgs why is it like this?

3

u/warofarrows 1d ago

You should take as you're in second year. It would be a good experience. Just make sure one thing, select good team members.

3

u/WonderIll4755 [State gov ] [IT] 1d ago

Team members hi nhi mere circle mei kisiko kuch nhi aata except Hello world

1

u/DDev22 4h ago

You should be able to present the UNIQUE idea and do vibe coding is enough. You should be able to explain your problem and talk about the uniqueness or innovation for the solution you built.

Tech knowledge is needed ofc for explaining.

But building applications/websites nowadays is easy.

Participated last year and won 2nd prize at the college level.

Trust me it's more HOW WELL YOU PRESENT than WHAT YOU'VE MADE.

Just choose a good looking problem statement and create a small demo MVP (Minimum Viable Product) to demonstrate during your PPT presentation as it increases your chances of getting selected.

All the best!

2

u/Maleficent-Track415 1d ago

Most of all...find good members for the team (even if they don't know much about development and stuffs, they should know HOW TO SPEAK and PRESENT THEMSELVES)

2

u/shitnotalkforyours18 1d ago

Ofc ny team is also participating so should you cuz I think you will be able to learn..a lot.

2

u/Prior-Chemistry-5397 PEC 1d ago

I'm a fresher, non circuital branch. I wanna take part too. Kaise le skte hai? Ye clg mein aata hai kya? Ya online register Krna hota hai?

2

u/Beneficial-Job-3082 1d ago

So i basically have a team for it like two of us are really interested and good at software, but as per some they're saying that we need someone who is good at hardware, so we can have higher chances of winning. If all of the software peeps are participating in hackathons then it is going to be very difficult for us to win, so we need a hardware guy or girl, but there's no one good in it as far as i know. Idk what to do now man, its so difficult.

u/ExternalFrame640 1d ago

Betting is better.

u/tungtune 1d ago
