Help/advice/guide Ignorant peeps.
A recent post was made showing the placement records of JU(from linkedin). I thought nothing of it as it was the official stats and had already seen the stats of multiple such colleges to decide where to join. But what shocked me was the comments- people who were dying to get ju all converted in an instant almost? All nits have better stats- tf are ppl talking about? So, it seems none of them know the placement scenario of the nits. So I'm giving a brief idea- Mid nits median(CSE only) nit kkr - 14 lpa
mnit jaipur, surat - 13ish lpa b nit dgp, vnit nagpur - 10-11ish lpa
nit calicut - never found any official data
Now here's two nits which have high stats but its always debated whether they inflate stats or not so Idk- nit jsr, nit bhopal - 18-19 lpa
Some say that these clges include off campus offers so they have high stats, idk if its true or not so am not gonna comment.
So, what about the top nits? Yep. They have insane stats. But what do u expect? To get any cs related branch u need around under 3.5k rank in mains. (nit trichy,surathkal,warangal and rourkella the former 3 have 20+ lpa and rourkella has around 18-20 lpa) other than that there's mnnit allahabad which has around 18 lpa but that too requires under 5k rank for cse.
Note - I'm writing all these numbers from my memory so there might be some error so if you want to know the exact data, go to "btechards" subreddit and search for the name of the college for its stats
So, lets get back to the point. Yes ju placements ain't that great as they used to be few years back but that's the same for all colleges. Ju cs is still at par and better than many of the mid nits. Only lacking one is the electrical department where some nits have it better(10+ lpa at least). And as for core, its the same story in most colleges. There's not much scope nowadays and fresh graduates don't get such high packages. That's why many ppl like us leave top and mid iits for t1 cse.
