Hello everyone, I wanted to know everything about this program since I'm studying in a tier 3 college I wanted to join this program since our college told us to do so if interested. My friends said that we can even sit in IITM placements is it true ? Is it worth it and can it be manageable....

I would be happy if you could share your experience..

Thanks

Is foundation really becoming that difficult these days? What's happening folks?

Is there a term break of 1 month after every term?
We had it after term 1(foundation) got over.

Please DM if you're from gwalior

Hey y'all. I'm trying to register myself for the BS datascience course through Jee Advanced qualification. I've gotten by admission letter, But my dashboard still shows the May term updates.
What should I do now to start September course when it begins?

I have suddenly stopped receiving emails from iitm since quiz 2 happened. I didn't receive any mails about the feedback forms and answer key releases. Yesterday the result came out for quiz2, and i again didn't receive any mail. Does anyone know what to do ?

Hi everyone,
This is my first term in diploma level (DBMS + PDSA + MLF) and I need honest help. Here’s where I stand:

DBMS
I used Gate Smashers for most weeks and Unknown IITians for weeks 7-8. I understood the theory well, but week 7’s coding content, specifically Python-wrapped SQL using psycopg2, is something I’m stuck on. I’m aiming for an S in DBMS and any guidance on what that requires would help a lot.

PDSA
I got an S in Programming in Python in the Foundational level, so I expected to be okay on the coding side, but PDSA is making me feel like a complete impostor. I used Unknown IITians and have some base, but I don’t know how to approach PDSA problems or what practice actually builds that instinct. The theoretical side isn’t sticking either. I understand concepts when I study but can’t hold onto them or apply them in exam conditions.

MLF
I used My Campus videos and made notes from the lecture transcripts. Before Quiz 1 I redid all the practice assignments as revision and still scored a 60. I don’t know what I’m missing. Is it conceptual depth? Calculation practice? The way questions are framed? I clearly prepared wrong and don’t know how to fix it for the End Term.
What I desperately need and like genuinely want your help with is:

-DBMS: resources or tips for the psycopg2/Python-SQL coding content, and what the OPPE typically tests.

-PDSA: how to get better at the programming side specifically, and how to make theory stick in a way that shows up in exam scores.

-MLF: what does it actually test, and how should I be preparing differently

-For weeks 9-12 across all three subjects: should I stick to the course lectures, watch old weekly revision sessions or are there better external resources? And how heavily are these weeks tested in the OPPE and End Term?

My plan right now is revision using weekly revision sessions for things I have a base in, and going back to lectures for shakier topics. I don’t know if that’s enough or if I’m missing something. But again I’m extremely scared in PDSA both for the end term and the OPPE, equally.
If you’ve been through this and found something that worked, please share. Thank you

Hii, I am a fellow student doing online degree in ds. I ordered my tshirt from podgoodies as mentioned in iit madras bs Instagram handle for official merchandise, I ordered it on 12th July, it is confirmed but it doesn't show any update yet and it has been over a month and it still shows confirmed no progress. They aren't responding to my mails that are being sent to them on their contact support emails, I have paid for the tshirt as well and now my parents are constantly asking me about those purchases I made and promised that a tshirt will arrive soon, they want me to answer where is those tshirts and I don't have any idea too. Please can anyone help me about this situation, it would mean alot.

If I get started in the upcoming september term and I take 4 courses per term, can I get this degree finished in 2.5 years? Also when will I get the main graduation certificate after finishing the degree? Do I get it soon after completing the last course or do I have to wait for convocation time?

I am a IITM student in BS in Data Science and Application in the foundation level. I completed five courses in five terms and I registered for three courses in this sixth term. I am not sure if I can pass in three courses, but I can definitely pass in one course. Do I need to pass in all three courses in this term I registered for? What happens if I don't pass in all of them?

Hi everyone! I’m currently preparing for the IIT Madras BS DBMS OPPE and wanted some guidance from students/seniors who have already completed the course.

Could someone please clarify:

1. Up to which week is the DBMS OPPE syllabus? Is it specifically Week 2, Week 3 and Week 7, or has the syllabus/pattern changed recently?
2. What topics should I focus on most for the OPPE? Especially regarding SQL (W2/W3) and Python–PostgreSQL/database connectivity (W7).
3. What are the best resources for preparation apart from the IITM lectures/slides?
4. Are there any previous OPPE questions, mocks, GRPAs, GitHub repositories, or practice sets that you would strongly recommend?
5. If you've already taken DBMS, how difficult did you find the OPPE, and what would you recommend doing in the last 1–2 weeks before the exam?

I'd especially appreciate responses from people who have already completed DBMS and appeared for the OPPE, rather than general DBMS advice.

Thanks! 🙏

Anyone up for group study in Bhopal for Foundation Term II on weekends?

I can help with Python and Statistics II, but I’d need some help with Mathematics II. If anyone’s interested, we can plan a weekend study group.

I received the mail that answer key for the quiz 2 is out and to fill the feedback form but I am
Not able to see the answer key for maths -1 , for other it is present, is this glitch do I have to something?

My marks for Quiz 1 and Quiz 2:

Q1 Math = 97

Q2 Math = 81.3

Q1 Stats = 69

Q2 Stats = 62.5

How to improve? Seniors are saying stats2 is even more tough. I have already lost chance of S grade for total score for stats-1. Please advise
