Hi nunoxic, No I have given BE Mech at Hyd above Msc duals at all campus. I have filled most of the options except BPharms and Msc in Biosubjects.
Do you know whether the previous year cutoffs published in the BITS website are those after the 1st iteration or after the final iteration.

Thanks

Thanks! I shall try to get admitted in Goa campus too. But last time, the lowest cutoff for BITS Goa B.E. programme was for chemical and that too was 296 . If cutoffs remain same, I shall get at the most a M.Sc programme with a scope of obtaining a dual degrree of B.E. Now, I really want a B.E. Which will be more preferable - a B.E. in Hyd or an M.Sc (with a chance of dual) in Goa? Also, if I get in any programme in BITS (any campus), I won't go for other institutes. Please tell me if my score is safe enough to forego AIEEE counselling.

I got a score of 270 in BITSAT. Shall I get mechanical in Hyderabad campus. If not, shall I be able to get admission in any programme in any campus of BITS. What about the infrastructure of Hyderabad campus- Is it nearabout Goa standard?

Read Concepts of Physics thoroughly (that is must for IIT) and then read the extra topics from some books like ABC physics.

Have anyone of you appeared for SAT (scholastic aptitude test)? How is it like? Where is it conducted (in India or in US)? I haven't got a credit-card so I have to register by mail. Now, in the SAT website ( www.collegeboard.com ) it is mentioned that for mail registrations, one needs to collect the reg.form from one's 'school-counselor'. I doubt if dere is any such personnel here. If someone has procured the registration form , please tell me from where did you collect it.

P.S.: To anyone studying in MIT: Plz tell me how good is the institute (the technical standards, not the living standards?) And how much does one expect to earn by doing student-jobs (Can the education there be afforded by financial-aids and student-jobs alone)?

AIEEE is easier, but at the same time, you must be quicker, because in AIEEE time given is less. NIT Suratkal is a very good engg. college (There may be better ones of course)

Hey, I have got both the books and Solomon's is loads better than interactive. Solomon's is is even better than Morrison&Boyd. Interactive is very unsystematic. By reading Solomon's u will understand org. chem. n even b abl 2 predict unseen reactions. Bt the topics in Solomons isnt in d same sequence as CBSE books. I advise u to follow the Solomon's sequence.

Chapter 9 not required, I forgot to mention.

Solomons is a very good book. It makes everything crystal clear if u read it with patience. U need not read all chapters. But the following ones u must read thoroughly- 3, 5, 6 to 21. U nid not read nomenclature from solomons; your textbook will be sufficient for that topic. While reading, don't jump from 1 topic to another, that way u may miss many important points.

They should have given the scorecard

I have scored 135. Too low to even catch the tail. Please tell me if there any chance of my getting into the extended merit list. (For institutes other than IITs)

Don't buy Interactive Organic Chemistry (no offence meant,waterdemon) coz it is a highly unsystematic book. According to me, Solomons and Fryhle is the best. It explains almost everything in a very systematic and more importantly, student-friendly manner. U will be able to understand the underlying working of organic chemistry. And there are many high quality problems. But there is just one fault - The answers to many of these are not given.

No, the correct answers are 2r and root2 r. U see, the motion of the points is not cycloid if it is viewed from the frame fixed with the instantaneous axis (the axis passing thru the contact point). In that frame, the entire wheel rotates abt the instantaneous axis with the same angular velocity w, with the particles going in a purely circular manner. The distances of the points A and B from this axis are 2r and root2 r respectively. Hence these are the required radii of curvature (as the contact point itself is the centre of the circles in which the particles move). This inst. axis is a real axis as it remains fixed for a particular instant. So U need not add the linear motion of the cylinder.

About which axis are you calculating the angular momentum? If you calculate angular momentum about the z-axis, THEN IT WILL REMAIN CONSTANT EVEN IF IT MOVES PARALLEL TO Y-AXIS. It appears to me that you are calculating ang.momn. about x-axis. In this case the motions along the two directions (x andy) are not symmetrical about the axis w.r.t. which the ang.momn. is calculated. Hence the difference.
