BITS likely to overtake IITs !!!


We are aware that most sought after Engineering institutes in the country are IITs.  But this is not going to be the story in future.   There are many reasons in support of the same and out of the same, I would like to highlight one prime reason.  The heartening fact is that the Government has introduced OBC reservation also and the overall percentage of reservation is around 50%.  It means that 50% of the students alone are coming to the premier institutes on merit basis.  Let us not go deep into the reservation issue on this forum but let us consider the fact of50% reservation alone in premier institutes like IITs and IIMs.  Because of differences in standards among the students of same class, there is highly imbalance and Professors are also not showing much enthusiasm unlike earlier days, when was at IIT Kanpur.  Recent episode at IITD is a clear cut example for it.


Because of sky rocketing salaries in the industry, many Professors of IITs are feeling highly dejected with their salaries.  This is another reason for the Professors to lose interest or enthusiasm in their teaching aspects.  They are preferring industrial projects over teaching an UG student routine subjects like C, Electrical/Mechanical Technology, Engineering Design etc.  Added to it, the Government today announced 50% reservation for all faculty positions of IITs as well.  The day may not be so long when all the Professors with great calibre may quit IITs.  In such case, all IITs will just turn out to be one among so many Engineering Colleges in the country, which is highly shameful for every citizen of India.


On the other hand, BITS is completely different.  There are no reservations either in students or in faculty.  Only merit matters there.  Because of the same, the standards of the college is getting increased year by year and hence, I have no hesitation to say that BITS WILL CERTAINLY OVERTAKE IITS IN A SHORT PERIOD.


What do you say.

i agree, bits pilani has its own standards and iit its own. i consider bits p better than iit r, g. yes the quota thing is surely going to ruin standards at iit. also new iits being set up looks like a publicity stunt by the govt. to save themselves in coming elections . don't be surprised if in future every state has its iit. then iitian tag wont matter but iitians from best iits like d,b,m,k,kgr would be in demand.
p.s: if ppl don't agree plz don't give stupid comments like b before i or some shit. just say u don't agree.

hey crazy, many people seem to be very jolly happy around here to hear that iit's will deteriote in future!


DOWN WITH THE BLOODY IIT"S! eh?


@ the person above (in capitals)


@the person who started this thread : it's one thing to educate people about which college is/will be better, and one thing to positively scream with delight and rub hands in gleem (and ur way of writing says it all, so don't explain, thank you), abt the future of a grp of institutes (and in a -ve manner). It was pathetic to read.


--- and when i read it again i read it : "The heartening fact is that the Government has introduced OBC reservation also and the overall percentage of reservation is around 50%"


- shhai man, in very bad taste.

I just want to say "FU*K OFF" to the ignorant(and possibly mentally-retarded)author of this thread.ur name clearly shows u don't have the talent to qualify IIT even by reservation.Just to tell u,the number of GENERAL CATEGORY  STUDENTS is still the SAME number.


There are many OBC students who have secured excellent ranks in GENERAL CATEGORY.


FU*K OFF harikhr

i agree tat bits p is going to overtake iit due to reservation nd all


one our first day we were told tat we shd be proud tat we r coming purely on merit not on reservation


then rightly faculty of iit is moving to bits.. nd also bits being private provide better facility


nd also i feel bits goa has a potential to overtake pilani due to its location mainly


as i have seen faculty of pilani shifting to goa


nd first placement of goa almost same as pilani...........


these r the things to come i guess

i am not anti iit but don't u think this quota thing is ruining standards. see the pt. that general category seats remain the same is contrary to itself bcoz every yr the no. of aspirants r inc. by 40k or more. so going by this seats of ge shud inc.i would hav also pref. iit d,b,k,kgr,m over bits p but u can't ignore the fact that inyrs to come iit tag won't matter coz every state would hav its own iit. only a few would meet expectations
