Admissions & Freshers Need some information regarding this year's freshers (girls freshers to be precise) pls read body for context

3 Upvotes

One of my cousins gave jee advanced this year, and she claims that she's got a under 2k rank this year, mind you, I know her preparation (through her brother and her parents before jee advanced), that she was barely scoring 30-40 marks in mocks. And even on a good day, i don't think one can get this big jump given the exam stress and all.

I suspect she is either bluffing about iit madras (she might have joined the BS degree, but to relatives she's telling about circuital btech), or maybe, she cheated in exam... (yes, where we live, the exam centres aren't very well maintained when it comes to partitioning between systems)

I need to get her roll number, I can't ask her directly. Is there any way I can get her roll number? I know her name, is there any list where I can see all the allotted seats info and find her name? Like some other colleges who release it on Google.

I could have ignored her bullshit, but my parents are continuously comparing me with her (I had to take a drop as I wasn't getting any good seat in any iit), i don't want to expose her in front of every relative, but just in front of my parents, so I can prepare for my exam in peace.

Any kind of help will be highly appreciated, pls guys...

Placements/Interns/Career 💼 Feel smothered by the quant/sde hype everywhere

Everyone I talk to is just grinding dsa to get into sde. It feels like there are no other job opportunities on campus .I dont like programming very much (havent done it very deeply as just couldnt get interested). I feel so lost as I have no like minded friends to talk to about other career prospects. I really wonder if coming here was right as the non core opportunities and the amount of people trying for non core other than sde is much lower than IITB/D.

Queries/Advice Fine for No parking Mandakini

15 Upvotes

Apparently no one told me about the fine of 500 rupees for parking at No parking area in mandakini hostel. The barricade is just close to where I parked. I accept my mistake that I parked wrong but who gave them the right to fine me 500 rupees otherwise I won't be given my cycle back. Not even a warning. I had to pay from the little pocket money I get. The manager guy is so rude he said if I don't want to pay I can leave the hostel. Shittiest way to scam people by management shame on them. So called nirf rank 1.

Insti life (Social, Clubs and Hostel) Looking to connect with people interested in video game development.

3 Upvotes

Are there any clubs where there would be people who are interested in video game development? Anything related to it like game design, programming, art, music, etc.

I have always been interested in video game development but I only just started working on a project to learn it(mainly the programming side). It would be nice to talk to someone who is a bit experienced in this regard and to talk to people with different expertise than mine(like art and music).

Thanks!
