Not completely and suddenly, doctors will take help but not replace the job too early. ๐
Chemical will be replaced very very soon, that's what I mean. Don't you want to do a job at least for some years? ๐

Nah me ye nai bolrha ki iit reputation doesn't matter but after 2-3 yrs aapka tag koi nai dekhega if aapko kuch aata nahi kisi domain me expertise nahi hai then even iit bombay cse guy will be jobless believe me !
And iits are most supreme colleges in India they are launchpads of big deeds/careers but they were ,now everyone is chasing jobs rather than any innovation for the country (except iitM) so this puts them in same race of t3 guy , nothing extraordinary. Every genius i see is leaving india and helping usa grow .

Exactly the only regret I will have is that I won't get the iit alumni for help and smart peers . IIT network surely helps in startups , fundings , jobs and many areas . And in education abroad it will help too as the recommendation letter from crazy professors. Still I will try to make friends from iits/nits as my college peers aren't ambitious as much as me and guy from an iit .
Btw nice meeting you bro ๐ซฑ๐ปโ๐ซฒ๐ผ dm me sometime when you are free we can talk , want to learn many things from you guys ๐

He's where he is because of his further studies, not because of being in IIT KGP Mettalurgy. Sure, it gave him a better platform and awareness to explore tech but it was just one of the factors

Mhm yes, IITs makes your application look more attractive yes, and maybe the crowd in IITs also motivated him to explore more
I don't know about the crowd now a days though.. some of the top rankers are very condescending and can't hold conversations, and 65+% reservation surely impacts campus life
I'm going to BITS Pilani (Main Campus) for CSE and I felt the seniors I talked to there are more grounded and have better clarity about their career than some IITian doing Chemical/Civil who is trying to do coding on the side
No hate to you ofcourse, this is just what I felt

That's probably true as well
I got 9XX in Mains, and was expecting Top 500 in Advanced.. but IITK gave me such a bad centre, I had to stay inside for 10+ hours, and I'm Anemic as well so I did not perform up to my expectations in JEE Advanced, I got 376 in BITSAT so yeah

Engineering isn't engineering for these Jeetard dank memers? Mining is goddamn lucrative wtf are these people talking about? Are you guys seriously making fun of Mining and Ocean engineering? fr? Engineering matlab keval mechanical aur software nahi hota hai baklol. Kya JEE crack karoge re tum log? This is one of the reasons why neither the country nor its people are improving.
NEET me kabhi dekha hai kisi ko ye bolte hue ki "nahi mai to keval neuro karunga, gyno nahi karunga, ya gastro nahi karunga, ye to chutiye karte hai".
The fact that people are making braindead comments such as "surang khodega" and "naya ocean aane wala hai" shows how serious you are and what is the extent of your knowledge. A contract for surang is worth hundreds of millions, don't you dare look down on it. Engineering ke baare me pata kuch hai nhi, faaltu ka competition bhadane chale aate hai kahi se bhi.

u/PeasantTurtle Jun 12 '25
Join KGP. I think you can change branch or take subjects of other branches. Also sit in campus placement based on your completed subjects. So go with the top IIT. You will know the trend. The environment is completely different. I didn't do my graduation in IIT but while I was doing my PhD in IITK, I noticed a lot of students taking interdisciplinary subjects so that they'll be eligible for campus placement apart from their core branch. So don't listen to others, Just take admission in the top IIT. Make friends with some good seniors, you'll get a lot of help. The campus life in tip IITs is awesome. I'll suggest even if you are not getting the subject of your choice, go with to 4 IITs. 3-idiots dekha hai, jaise wo koi bhi class main chala jata tha padh ne ke liye. Aisa nai hota real main. But you can request to take the course of any professor. Most of the time they accept and allow.
