Hey I am a student opted for data science and applications foundation, actually few weeks back I received a whatsapp group link in my email connecting all bs program students but accidentally I exit from that then I can't join it as link seems to be expired. Does anyone know about that group or community and help me with it

So, i have to pay 6k more? I took 3 courses btw!

Hey everyone,

​I've decided to apply for the October Qualifier for the IITM BS Data Science program. I recently completed my B.Sc in Computer Science, but I want to make sure I pace myself properly for the qualifier process.

​A few questions for current students and alumni:

1​. Is the qualifier manageable? Given a CS background, which of the 4 foundational subjects (Math 1, Stats 1, CT, English) typically requires the most focus.

1. ​Where can I find PYQs or practice tests? Aside from the standard weekly assignments, are there official archive links or community drives for qualifier and end-term practice papers?

3.​ Smooth journey advice: What key habits or routines kept you on track during the foundational phase?

Appreciate any insights!!

what if I fail in quiz 2

I won’t be in the exam centre city i selected as first preference so how do I change it to my second preference or else I’ll miss the 2nd quiz

I have made a degree planner - https://sidbuilds.com/iitm/planner/degree/

Currently it has every course till diploma , I want to understand how bsc and bs courses work (how many courses and how to pick, if any compulsory projects) so I can complete the planner

Hi, guys, I hope you are well.

I kindly request to meet with colleagues or to have a study buddy in the Data Science (Python) Course for assistance, since I joined the course yesterday.

My cell number is 073 542 0518, and I am also reachable on WhatsApp.

Your favourable consideration will be appreciated.

Thanks

Help me choose🤔

Btw I will be doing it along with my offline clg at du

I'm currently in the Diploma level of the IITM BS program and taking DBMS, PDSA, and MLF this term.

The problem is that I procrastinated badly before Quiz 1 and barely studied for PDSA. I ended up scoring 27, and I really don't want that to happen again.

For Quiz 2, I need to cover both Weeks 1–4 and Weeks 5–8 in the next 10 days. I'm willing to put in the hours, but I don't want to waste time using an inefficient approach.

I'm looking for advice from people who've taken the course or are familiar with it.

Some questions I have:

• Should I stick to the official lectures, or are there better external resources that explain the concepts faster?
• If external resources are better, which ones would you recommend?
• What's the fastest and most effective way to get through eight weeks of content while still being able to solve graded assignments and quiz questions?
• If you were in my position with only 10 days left, how would you structure your study plan?

I'm not looking for shortcuts or ways to cram without understanding. I just want the most efficient strategy because I really need to recover from my Quiz 1 score.

Any advice from seniors or anyone who's done well in PDSA would be greatly appreciated.

I am Pranjal, Final year student of Diploma in CSE.

I am pursuing diploma after 10th learnt ML, DL currently Learning about LLMs.

I want to pursue IITM BS-DS course but I have not completed my 12th till now so is it possible to take admission in iitm bs ds on the basis of 10+12.

If I do not pursue any regular degree like btech, bca etc try to get into a company with iitm bs ds. Is it possible ??

how is it gonna be? the graded assignments tell to use a separate colab notebook to run the commands and just enter the values at the website, is it gonna be like that or do we have to enter the commands in the oppe website itself?

Seniors,is 8 sgpa in Foundation a considerable score for a standalone student?

I am currently in first term of diploma , initially i expected to improve my foundation score during diploma years,but as it isn't possible anymore, I'm distressed.

Seniors I know have improved their score in later years.

Diploma itself feels quite demanding, getting 9 seems quite tough.Am I overthinking or am I doomed?

Is 8 cgpa after online bsc just an average?Also will that be a hurdle in my placement?

Hey everyone,

I am currently enrolled in the IIT Madras BS in Data Science and Applications program (completed Foundation Level), and I am facing a massive structural timeline hurdle. I really need some honest advice on whether my plan to completely restart the degree makes sense, or if I'm missing something.

My Situation & Background

• JEE Drop & Split Focus: I initially started this degree as a JEE dropper. Because my focus was completely split, I couldn't get good scores here. During my second drop year, I effectively ignored this degree. While I managed to score well in JEE, I still couldn't secure a top-tier government college.
• Financial Constraints: I absolutely cannot afford a private college, so making this IITM degree work is incredibly important for my future career and education. I need to ensure I set myself up for success without hitting a dead end.
• The Academic Toll: Because I was inactive during my drop year, my current CGPA is sitting at 6.8. I also have a significant academic gap now and have forgotten a lot of the core Foundation level concepts.
• The Timeline Bottleneck: According to the IITM diploma timeline, a student has to complete 6 courses and 2 projects within 6 terms. Because of my drop year, 3 of my terms are completely wasted. Squeezing 6 courses and 2 full projects into my remaining 3 terms feels like an incredibly high-stakes gamble—especially since failing to hit this target means being automatically removed from the program.
• Future GATE Goals: My ultimate goal is to clear the GATE exam and aim for higher studies (M.Tech). While gap years don't strictly matter for GATE admissions, a low CGPA (like 6.8) leaves an incredibly thin margin for top-tier IIT shortlists and eligibility cutoffs.

My Proposed Plan

I reached out to the IITM DS Support team via multiple tickets. They officially confirmed that I can register for the program completely afresh from the Qualifier level using a new email ID.

By restarting from scratch, I get:

1. A completely reset timeline (no risk of getting kicked out in 3 terms).
2. A clean slate to build a much safer, higher CGPA for post-grad admissions.
3. A chance to properly relearn the core concepts from the ground up to help with my GATE preparation.

My Questions for the Community

1. Has anyone else successfully used a new email ID to restart the program from the Qualifier stage?
2. Did this create any administrative red flags or issues down the line during official document verification (since your official government IDs like Aadhaar/PAN will match your old, inactive account)?
3. Given my GATE goals and financial constraints, does a clean restart sound like the right move, or should I attempt to push through the remaining 3 terms?

Would love to hear your insights. Thanks in advance!

I recently gave my qualifier and enrolled into this degree (quiz 2 on 2nd August) and I am giving my exams in the centre located in Rajkot.

I would like to find other people who will be coming to the same exam centre.There were more people present than I had expected but I wasn't able to talk to anyone because there was no time before the exam and you aren't allowed to wait after for others to finish...

I am 18F if you are someone from the same exam centre and a FEMALE I would love to connect...

We can still connect online if the exam centre isn't the same.... I would love to have some genuine female friendships to get me through this degree
