@seifo90

I am amazed by your extreme fervour towards VIT which ranges from jingoism to fanaticism.

As for calling me a liar, I don't take it personally as I think I failed to provide you the facts - so here is the encore..

They boast of a huge infrastructure but is it possible for any infrastructure to support 15,000+ students. The campus is barely 200 acres. And the campus , everytime feels like a fish market. A small dingy classroom with 120+ students imagine!! An year of a department with 300+ students!!!

You did provide the wikipedia entry so care to check the right hand corner for number of students. It says 12,242 students. And also that figure is an yr and half old, thats when I passed out. If question the authenticity of wiki even, plz do go to the certificates department where no the left side of the wall they display the number of current students and in my time this was the same figure as it is provided in wiki. So it is safe to assume that the number of students might now be 15K in 1 1/2 yrs.

Most of the student crowd is very dodgy, I mean nearly 50-60 % of the students are from management quota and rest are the students who score no so high in VITEEE entrance exam. Frankly, I know people there who say sqrt(-4) = -2! and (a-b)^2 = a^2 - b^2!!

Listen dude/dudette some 2 yrs back the situation was the similar as i mentioned above, I dont have the figures of number of such persons but i hv met many who clearly lack common sense, I guess shld be common in any case. I dont know abt the situation now, It might hv improved

if students are bad, then faculty is even worse, the lecturer who teaches advanced programming doesnt even know what does strcmp() mean ( a very basic function in C). Plagiarizing student's ideas by the faculty for their own means is rampant there.

As for the faculty, you seem to agree on the plight of CS department. Could you care to throw light on the matter, that how many Assistant Professors have a PHd which is recommended by AICTE. Also the ECE and EE dept share the same problem. But I agree with Mech, Biotech, Civil, I would recommend them as better ones. Please care to note that I said that "faculty dont know stuff" rather than "they are not helpful" . But the problem is that unless you know something its impossible to help.

Academics sucks.. there is no concept of research. You will hv to go for a lot of trouble if applying for higher studies. Still follow some syllabus copied from VTU Karnataka, BITS.

How many publications by students, faculty / yr. Please, I was discouraged to publish mine even as the Prof-in charge said it was not good (so much for encouragement). Copying syllabus is not a good indicator of a Insti, hell they dont copy rather they take the what they feel best from other Insti syllabus. We didnt have Theory of Computation, Analysis of Algos which is one of the most important course of CS, i think you might agree if you are in CS.( many students didnt qualify in GATE because of the lack of knowledge of above two courses).

About the strict rules..

They did 'almost' singlehandedly destroyed my career. Why, I was in top 10 students in first yr / 1100 students. I was in top 10% in my department for all yrs, still they didnt give me promised scholarship, denied me first class with disti, didnt gave me a dept rank, denied me a chance to be a part of National-level Programming contest. why because i didnt give a 'HISTORY exam' as I was ill and part of thier stupid rules says unless you are gravely ill/death of father or mother they wont reconsider. A severe 'food poisoning' doesnt qualify as gravely ill, so I was failed.

Now you think that I didnt have correct priorities, then you can reconsider.

Although I am happy by your attitude to support VIT, its good to know that Junis are optimistic, but I dont know how the stuation improved in a yr or so.

TO ASPIRANTS,

VIT is good but not good than NSIT/DCE, CEG, some NITS(surathkal,W,Rourkela,Trichy, Calicut,Allhabad, Jaipur ), IIIT-A/IIIT-H, RVCE.

Also for the Ban-AUS test match see this(they havent won a test match against Aus)
