The TRUTH About VIT!!!

Please READ the Whole of IT. It might seem lenghty but will stop you from commiting a
mistake. It took me half an hour too write .. but it takes less than 10 mins to read. (i
wish someon else had written this b4 i joined this college.)

So all you people might have bought tha amazing looking brochure. N might have seen the DVD.
I heard 2 lakh people are giving this exam this time. WOW. That is more than the people who
applied for IIT-JEE in 2005. Now you might think that this college looks so awesum .. WOW ..
i must be here .. So beautiful campus .. SHIT ! Its too good .. look at the placements !!
look at the library ! the hostel !!! the tt !! .. and so on.. initially my reaction was the
same .. but all this is just something to attract lot of students .. now let me tell you a
lil about myself. M in 1st year EEE , From VIT , From New Delhi . I came to vit in the
second counselin itself. The campus is brilliant but lemme tell you the xperience's
afterwards.

* The management at the VIT is rotten to the core. And i mean it. After counselling, which
went pretty well , we had the hostel room allotement. So you might be thinking .. it went
pretty well too .. but lemme tell yu .. the hostel allotment was the worst.. even tho these
ppl have the rooms... they will make yu go around thousand times .. ask yu to waste 3 days..
the chief warden here is a madman. So after 4 days of fighting,stayin in a hotel i got a
room . But cudnt blieve it .. man it was 6 bed room the size of 3 normal size bathrooms put
together.. lolz ... man believe me it SUCKs.. actually the 3 bed room is converted into six
bed.. cuz they have increased the intake from 1200 to 1600 way more than the campus can
support ,, and the hostels too .. so the same is going to happen to YOU. hehehe .. nwz as we
continue .. the TT looks so SEXY from outside .. but the instant u go in the class in first
sem .. itz like worse then the classrooms in the govt college. i dont know but i may be
feelin this cuz i studied in a good skul in delhi fer 14 years but still this DUZNT
happen... the scond thing is that each class will contain aroun 120 students .. lolz ... so
first sem u r dead. they are corrupted takin in managemnt students more than they shud .
they take bribes n everything .. they are worse than govt officials.

* The teachers at VIT are damn bad.. n thats the truth.. most of the teachers at vit are
taken straight from college 4 years ( oders ) having no educational teaching xperience.. so
they are south indians... with south indian incomprehensible accent ( no offense but its not
understandable ) n some unknown grudge n a mighty ego against the students. SO the situation
TILL NOW. You are stuck in a 6 bed room ( if u come l8 fer counselling ) .. u are sittin in
a very bad class wid 120 students n a sucky teacher whu duznt know wat he is teaching n its
bloody hot n the room duznt have an a/c.

* The life at vit is unbearable. there are almost no xtraciricular activities. u dont know
wat is happenin wen. i heard that there are more than 50 grps n activities.. so i joind the
music club as i play guitar n stuff. But to my astonishment , the music room was friggin
small ... it was like 3mx3m . with broken drumsets n broken guitar n broken stuff.. n no
proper system fer bands to play . its the seniours who decide who is goin to play .. but
luckily ( thanks to a surprise visit by DD tv to check the "social" life of the campus ) we
got a bigger room .. bbut overall lemme tell u. ur attendance should be 75 % n no grants are
given fer extraciricular activietes. The management motto is " SHUT UP N STUDY or Leave the
college ".

* so the teachers dont know how to teach n there are no xtracircular activites n college
gettogethers. To add to this .. the study load is too much. We have got the CAM system ( the
" Continious Assesment Marks " which continuassly "assess" ur performance at the xam ) so
after a month of attending classes and not grasping anythng the CAM were here.I fortunately
passes by studyin a day b4. lol . So after celebrating .. they were there again .. after a
month to haunt me ... n then there are friggin model test in labs , so many labs to cope up
with , so many classes . the studies in vit is mark oriented. u do practicals widout ne1
xplainin nething.n then after a month the terminal xams. ultimately the situation is
everyday ur havin n xam n u get seriously f'd up < get the meaning>

* now the situation is ur copin wid xams , fitin a battle everyday hehe . So u basically
want to socialise wid the ppl around. But according to vit .. Socialisation = Boy+Boy or
Girl+Girl .. no boy- girl combination .. gulz are supposed to get in the hostels strait
after the class ..leavin half an hour margin for friendz to meet... n boyz are off limits
the gulz hostel in around 100 m radius.the management thinks that all boys are perverted or
crap like that.. they are still living in medieval age.Oh i almost fergot.. if gulz
have to leave the campus they cant go out fer more than 2 hrs n they have to submit
sum kinda card at the gate so as to know where u r goin.

* also in the nearby area .. there is NO life .. u shud see the only cinema hall here .. i
havent seen a single muv after the first one i saw over here. fullstop.
No barista , no ccd , no place to hang out wid frenz xcept food court wich u eventually get
bored off .. no malls nuthin .. vellore is a village.

* u mit have seen the placement companies. highest taker is tcs. highest package offer :4
lakhs. avg 2 lakhs. No foriegn placements ( u mit have seen many "abroad" placements
cmpanies in the brochure but after comin here u will know that is all lies .. they get 1
student place there intentionally n then say that company name. last time IBM took only 2
students or sumthin like that n they say that IBM was ther fer campus placements.lolz.
liars.the 9 pointer n the 6 pointer < that is like 90 percentile and 60 percentile > have
the same placement, so no use to study.

Now fer hosteleers ///
* boys intime 9 PM. First years. Seniours 9 30. ( what the hell)
* No camera cells allowed < ? why the hell > n if caught u get after 4 years.
* You dont give ur laptops to ne1 else or the laptop is seized ( this is the most funny n
stupid rule Razz )
* You dont watch muv's in the night on ur laptop or the laptop is seized.
* 9 PM - 3 AM is study hrz. so u shud study n not make noise.
* There may be routine cheks on your mobile phone. The pro chancellor may ask to c ur cell ,
search it , if found any obscene msgs or pix , ur parents will be called.My frend had his
gf's msg n the registrar called up his father that he has msgs from his gf. LOOOL.
*u cant enter the hostel after intime .
*u hafto give attendance every night in the hostels. ( U heard it right.) So if u absent
someday u hafto give xplanation.
*if u wanto go fer a vacation : u hafto run from hostel to main building and back fer at
least 3 times cuz of take sign from the coordinator, mess supervisor ( for mess refund) the
chief warden.
* life is very tuf for gulz . the wardens are very bad n interfering in personal matter.
some frnd of mine dont even stay out till 8 on tuesdays wen its allowd to stay out l8 that
day cuz she will ask quesions
* they mit suspend u or debar u.
* they may pass ne new new rule in the middle of the semester without proper guidelines <
for eg they passed this new rule that 75% attendnce less wont b alloed to write the xam wen
the sem waS going to end. earlier it was pay 2000 rs n go away. so i thght i will pay 2000
bux ..n i dint attend the first half.so now i m screwd up >
* " Are you trying to be the leader ", is the response u get from chief warden if u take ne
complaints to him . lol . n he is the dumbest person alive.
* u get very very very bad food.
*its damn xpensive.
* its damn overcrowded. {one badminton court for 1200 ppl.}
* everyone in the management says they dont know n go to the other person.
* u shud have influence in order to survive.
* the tv closes at 9 pm in the night. < due to the study hrs >
*water coolers on alternate floors. TV's on alternate floors. I dont know the logic behind
it.
* u cant play guitar after 9 or do ne other xtra ciricular activites.
A conversation b/w me n pandian < the chief warden > wen i was teachin a person guitar
P: " gimme ur id card"
me:" Sir plz sorry"
P: " Gimme or i call the security guard"
me:" but sir..."
P:" SHUT UP."
me :" Sorry sir"
P: " I ll slap you hard n den say sorry. I will make sure u wont get a hostel room next sem.
Yes i will make sure.. gime the permission for keeping the guitar. where is it .. u dont
have it ?? i ll make sure u wont get the room next time"
[me gives the ID card n is extremely humiliated in front of his frendz,]

So the story till now : u r in 6 bed room ( wich is orignally 3 bed ), u have sucky
teachers,sucky classes,sucky labs,sucky crowd ,sucky college life , no gulfrend or boy frend
, no xtra ciricular activites nuthin ,you r in a jail. n thats tha truth.

For more references /
go to pissed off by VIT community on orkut.< currently 800 members thats equivalent 30 % of
the college hostel students others will join >
go to vit community on orkut.

M writin this cuz i sufferd n m again preparing for entrances ,,, so that i can get away
from this hell.

nwz more queries , feel free to ask .. if u havent recieved the admit card ,, go with the
application fotostat cuz the management duznt care n loses applications easily.if they say
they havnt recvd it , they probbly have lost it.



ANOTHER ONE


A visit to VIT
In a older post I had said that VIT's position in India Today's ranking was undeserved. Well yesterday I had the chance to go to VIT. My cousin sister had counselling in VIT and my Mama had asked me to come along. What I saw at VIT is divided into 3 parts. The good, the bad and the ugly.

The good
1. The buildings at VIT look absolutely gorgeous from the outside. The library in particular was really well done. I wish we had a library like that (I'm talking just about the building here) in IIIT.
2. A building called the technology tower was also very impressive with it's hanging gardens theme.
3. Canteen Rocks!
4. Sports facilities were pretty good. A tad over-indulgent to be honest.
5. Nice lawns. the walkways have small shades built all over them to escape from the sun which I hear is pretty strong usually.

The Bad
1. During the counselling they totally mis-represented the placements. When I asked for an average for the CS department the answer was it's somewhere between 3 and 5 lpa. When I asked for a number, I was, after a lot of persuasion, given a number of 3.3 Lpa by somebody in the PAT dept.
2. I wanted to go and check out the the CS department. I was stopped by one of the many rude security guards present in the campus. When I insisted he took me to some faculty member who was apparently a prof. He asked me stuff like "why do you want to see the dept.?", "What is the point in speaking to he faculty?" etc... I then walked into the office of the Public relations officer who, scared of me creating a scene told the guard to take me to the CS department. Why would you stop people from checking out departments?
3. There are apparently 500 students in a single batch of computer science. I enquired about this branch coz this is the one my cousin is joining. 500 people! Source P.R.Officer


The ugly

1.In the batch of 500 students 266 seats were offered through counselling and the rest i.e.234 were offered under the management quota. This is shocking. So much so that I confirmed this thrice. Once with the PRO, once with the admissions office and once more with some CS faculty!! Apparently the numbers for ECE and some extent EEE are also rather identical!! For those people who had commented on my blog about VIT offering only 10% seats through donations....People go check you figures. These are shocking proportions to take through management quotas!!
2. After I manged to get into the CS dept. I spoke to some faculty members. I cannot express in words how poor they were. VIT has about 180 faculty members in the CS dept. Of these 3~4 have PhD's the rest of the people have a B.tech/MCA background. I spoke to about 15 faculty members and hardly anyone was capable of carrying out a conversation on any academic lines. I was left speechless at how unbelievable bad there are. I have absolutely no idea of how these people are going to educate students in the art of CS! Here is a part of a conversation I had with 3 faculty members. All 3 were senior lecturers. I will not use names Razz

f1: What are doing(as in where are u studying?)
me: sir I'm at IIIT-h. I'm a dual degree student. I'm doing my ms/r part right now.
f1: what is ms/r
me: This means you will get your MS for research work and not coursework. You will have to produce some research work that will form your thesis and after that you need to defend it.(some more explanation about msbr followed)
f2: So you don't do any courses in your final year?
me: yeah pretty much. The focus is on research.
f2: Tch Tch what kind of a PG course is this? You should look at the M.tech course at VIT. We teach our students advanced concepts like software engg and java programming!
f3: so You need to just present a few papers and you get your MS?
me:(utterly shaken state) Yes thats it ...just a few papers(sigh!)

some time later we came to the topic of placements.

f2: we had very good placements this year. M$ , google and yahoo came here.
me: How many people did google hire?
f2: Google didn't hire anybody.
f3: actually google's selection process was wrong. They allowed only computer science people to sit for their written tests and in that written test they asked things that were out of syllabus.
At this point I started to giggle!
f3: Why man ...what is so funny?
me: Nothing sir...I was just thinking how silly these IT companies can be! Asking things out of syllabus is really atrocious Very Happy

There is a lotta more masala where this came from but I shall not write it in respect of those Studying at VIT (which includes my cousin Razz)

But on a more serious note what I saw at VIT was the unholy nexus of money and education in it's full fury. While I'm not against institutes charging very high fees, I'm against institutes selling them. Also I have now developed great respect for those who study at VIT and manage to do well with their careers. It's a credit to them to be able to emerge from this mess and do well. I hope my cousin can do the same.

And for India today and all those who campaigned for VIT on one of my previous posts. It is very irresponsible of you to attempt to position VIT as a top class institute ahead of NIT-T,NIT-w and IIIT-h. For those who study there and know the place I'm even more shocked that they would consider lobbying for VIT. With the faculty you have and the method of admissions....all your infrastructure counts for absolutely nothing. I never ever imagined that the faculty would be so so atrociously bad. Good luck to whoever studies there.

BE VS BSc/BA Hons

Top 10
If you are getting a BE in the Top 10 engg colleges of India then blindly go for a BE.

Top 25

If you are getting a BE in the Top 25 engg colleges of India then blindly go for a BE except that SRCC BA Hons or B Com Hons courses can tie with these colleges too if not beat them hands down.

Top 50
A BE in these colleges is better than any BA/BSc Hons other than SRCC.

Top 100
A BE from these colleges is equivalent if not better than a BSc/BA Hons especially in Eco or Maths from the best colleges like Top 5(or even 10) colleges in DU. At this stage you can have some confusion.

Top 200
You can still consider going for these engg colleges however personally I would prefer to go for Top 10 colleges of DU or equivalent colleges.

Top 500
Go for a BSc/BA Hons in a reputed college!

AIEEE Counseling Procedure Explained!!!




AIEEE Counseling Procedure Explained!!!

There are two forms: Form 1 and Form 2. Both these forms are optional.

You fill your choices in order of preference in Form 1 out of the choices which are available on the day of your counseling. Depending upon your AIR and subject demand you are allotted the subject from your preference list.

Once you are allotted a subject in a college, it becomes frozen and can not be changed. There is no sliding during the counseling procedure. So if you meet any of the cutoffs, you just get that course.

In case you don't get through any course through Form 1 or leave Form 2 blank, then Form 2 comes into play. You only mention the institutes you want to go to in that form in order of preference.

If there is any vacant seat in any course in that institute in Form 2 you will be allotted it based on your AIR. If you don't make it to the first choice then comes the second institute within Form 2.

In case you don't have an AIR good enough to get anything you asked for in Form 2 either then you don't get anything through AIEEE counseling.

People were really confused about the system, I have attended my counseling and this is what I know.





Do I stand a chance in Second Counseling?

Thumb Rule:

I read on Ankur Gupta's website www.ankur-gupta.com/blog that NIT first counseling goes up to 8000 AIR while second counseling goes up to 12000 AIR. From this I inferred that at whatever rank a subject finishes in the first counseling, say AIR 10000 for instance, there is a good chance that it will finally go around 50% more of that rank, ie. 15000 in this case. To be realistic you can expect a difference of 25-50% I guess...

Let the cutoff rank in First Counseling be X.

If your rank lies within:


X+10%X
Sure shot chance!

X+20%X
Almost sure shot chance!

X+50%X
Good chance!

X+70%X
Some chance!

>X+70%X
Very slim chance!

These figures are especially valid for AIR equal or better than 10000 in first counseling. The statistics may change for ranks which are >10000 to some/great extent.


These Cutoffs are basically for AIEEE Second Central Counseling for NITs, PEC, Thapar etc...

Ranking the NITs, PEC, Thapar, LNMIIT...


Very Good NITs
All the top 3 NITs are overall almost equal and the difference between Trichy and Warangal is so little that often there rankings are interchanged.

1.Trichy
2.Warangal
3.Surathkal


Good NITs

Again, there is not too much of a difference amongst the NITs in thie league however NIT Allahabad is better and does hold the flagship.


1.NIT Allahabad
2.DAIICT*
3.PEC
4.NIT Jaipur
5.Thapar
6.NIT Bhopal
7.NIT Calicut


Decent NITs

These NITs are not the best ones however if you are not getting a subject of choice in those mentioned above or if you don't get anything else, then these are not that bad either.

1.Nagpur
2.Kurukshetra
3.LNMIIT**
4.JIIT**
5.Raurkela
6.Surat
7.Jamshedpur
8.Durgapur


Average NITs
Worth going to only if you are not getting anything decent.

1.Hamirpur
2.Jalandhar


Worst NITs
Not worth going to.

Patna Raipur Srinagar Agartala Silchar


*DAIICT has been placed above PEC due to obtaining a rank 12th in DQ India 2008 and also due to its fast pace of growth.

**LNMIIT and JIIT are also expected with the Good NITs in another 4 years or so seeing the fast pace of their growth.

LNMIIT Expected Cutoffs!!!

LNMIIT Expected Cutoffs!!!*

Last Year's Cutoff: 9246

CS: 9000-12000

CS&Comm: 11000-14000

ECE: 12000-17000


Reasons For Expected Drop in Cutoffs:


Increase in number of courses and seats.

Change in AIEEE NIT selection pattern.



*These cutoffs are just estimates as I think they should be. Don't go exactly by them.

Why is Amity so bad???

I know all these big advertisements have the common people wondering about Amity University... The truth is that it is crap, purely crap!!! Going for it is the best way to ruin your career. Stay off that university! This is why:


Intellectual Capital

Pathetic! Even this word doesn't do justice. People get admission without even passing 12th! Now what do we say about that. People who go to Amity are those who don't get through any engg any where and don't make it to DU or any other decent university either. So you can imagine the quality of those students. A few lakhs in AIEEE and most often 60s or 70s in the boards. Do you think they are capable students??? (Even if they have brains, they aren't willing to study at all!!!)


Infrastructure

Get over the fancy buidlings and ACs. The labs are not upto the mark. People who acredit universities will vouch to this, DU South Campus Student's Welfare dean itself made fun of Amity on these grounds in front of me.

Faculty

Poor and lacks knowledge! The faculty is just not upto the mark. They don't know their subject. Again that dean can vouch to that fact.

Placements

100% only on paper! Poor pay packets. I have heard that they throw you out in a couple of months. You are not gonna find any other job after that. So practically 0% placement.

Future Prospects

There is no future!!!

Location

Noida - One thing which is good due to which it is still going...

BE VS BTech...

BE is supposed to be more knowledge oriented where as B Tech is skill oriented.Now a days, nobody is caring about the by definition difference that was prevalent a generation ago. Its only University dependency.
Deciding which one is better is more dependent on the application/job one is capable of doing. Hands-on-experience is preferable to knowledge in many countries.An Engineer without skill is not an Engineer. To focus on this point, B Tech course was developed. This way B Tech is supposed to be closer to an Engineer than BE but now, not the degree but the talent matters. And its not important to have an Engineering Degree or background to be able to what the engineers actually are doing.
There are thousands of examples where people are doing very well along with engineers without having an engineering degree.

In India B.E. and B.Tech is treated as equivalents.People will prefer a better college or university rather then looking into as the degree offerred is B.E Or B.Tech.

Harayana Colleges Cutoffs!!!

Harayana 2006 Cutoffs

Harayana 2007 Cutoffs

Which College Will I Get Through AIEEE?

Please post your queries and doubts as comments so that me and other viewers can answer them. Any AIEEE rank or college query can be placed in this thread...

Why Cutoffs Are Expected Lower This Year?

AIEEE has removed the state quota for NITs and other institutions which are a part of central counselling as a result the cut offs rank throughout India will change drastically especially for NITs. Private institutes won't be affected to the same extent, however a noticeable change can be expected even in their cutoffs once AIEEE counselling, both first and second take place.

The Expected Cutoffs mentioned in this website are just approximate predictions of what I think is likely to happen.

JIIT Cutoffs!!!

JIIT or Jaypee Noida 2007 Cutoffs!!!

CS:14800
ECE:18900
IT:20600

These are approximate cutoffs. There are other subjects offered at JIIT whose cutoffs might have gone till even 28000-30000 AIR!


JIIT 2008 Expected Cutoffs!!!


CS:17000
ECE:25000
IT:27000

I visited JIIT counselling today and have updated the expected cutoffs!

AIEEE 2008 Online Counselling!!!

AIEEE 2008 Online Counselling has already started at:

http://ccb.nic.in/CCB2008/offcampus08/rlogin.aspx


Although I doubt how accurate an idea it would give as each top ranker would probably apply for all courses. So don't be disheartened as what you actually get may be night and day better than the estimate you get here.

Indian Engineering Colleges Grading!!!

I find the rankings in magazines or the internet for that matter rather useless. Big names like Outlook and India Today are doing nothing but joking when making these rankings.

So I decided to grade Indian Engineering Colleges instead. Here is how I have rated:


A GRADE (TOP 10)


Awesome! The cream colleges of India and the best amongst the best. A better bet than any other colleges in India and are reknowned to have global standards.


IITs
NSIT
BITS Pilani
IT BHU
IIIT Hyderabad


B GRADE (TOP 25)

Very good colleges with good reputations and often heard of by laymen too. Those who miss A grade stuff or don't get good branches there sometimes land up over here.


DCE
Thapar
PEC
NITs Warangal Tricky Surathkal Allahabad
ISM
PSG College
Jadavpur University
BIT Meesra
IIIT Allahabad
BITS Pilani Goa Campus
Anna University Guindy
DAIICT


C GRADE (TOP 50)

Decent colleges with decent reputations and often growing(as in the case of Jaypee). Usually better to go to these colleges compared to BSc/BA even from the best universities in India. All of these colleges aren't heard of by everybody.


Manipal
Jaypee Noida
NITs Kozhikhode Kurukshetra
USIT
VIT
BVP
MAIT
LNMIT
RVCE
SSN


D GRADE (TOP 100)

Just about acceptable colleges which are the bare minimum that you should actually consider while choosing a BTech over a BSc. These colleges are usually not heard of by laymen.

NITs Durgapur Hamirpur Jalandhar
SRM
SASTRA
Nirma
Amrita
ITM


E GRADE (TOP 200)

The bare bare minimum colleges that you might consider for a BTech and often a good BSc could be a better choice.


Kalinga
GTBIT
Babu Banarsidas Lucknow
Galgotias
NITs Agartala Srinagar

BITS Expected Cut Off!!!

BITS is releasing ranks of candidates on 1 July. The statistical data is already out at:

http://bitsadmission.com/admn/bitsat/statistics.htm

Some statistical information on BITSAT-2008


BITSAT-2008

BITSAT score Analysis:


No of Candidates with score >= 400: 64
No of Candidates with score >= 350: 667
No of Candidates with score >= 300: 3613
No of Candidates with score >= 250: 11624
No of Candidates with Score >= 200: 25634


Last Years Cut Off:
260

This Years Expected Cut Off: 220-240+-10


Reason For Decrease in Cut Off:


Increase in BITS seats to 1.5 times due to opening of Hyderabad campus.

People are scoring a little lower than last year.

More seats in IIT and some other examinations.

NITs Expected Cut Off!!!

As you know this year AIEEE has changed its counselling procedure and abolished state ranks for selection which will now be held on AIR basis for NITs amongst other colleges just like IIITs previously, therefore the cut offs will take a huge turn and won't be like before.

I feel that previous years Chandigarh cutoffs or CG cutoffs should be similar/closest to mean AIR cut offs. You can have a look at them here:
http://ccb.nic.in/CCB2008/OrCr/Engineering/Eng/orcr.htm

I feel the cut offs for IIITs won't change much if at all, however NITs and even Thapar and PEC will have a notable impact on the cutoffs.


EXPECTED CUT OFFS:


Upto 2500
Very High NIT - High Course

Upto 5000
Very High NIT - Medium Course
High NIT - High Course

Upto 12000
Very High NIT - Very Low Course
High NIT - Low Course
Medium NIT - Medium/High Course

Upto 15000
High NIT - Very Low Course
Medium NIT - Low Course
Low NIT - Medium/High Course

Upto 20000
Medium NIT - Very Low/Low Course
Low NIT - Low/Medium Course

Upto 40000

Medium NIT - Very Low Course
Low NIT - Low/Very Low Course


KEY

NIT
Very High: Warangal Trichy Surathkal
High: Allahabad Jaipur Bhopal Calicut
Medium: Nagpur Raurkela Kurukshetra Surat Durgapur etc
Low: Patna Silchar Agartala Srinagar Raipur


COURSE
High: CS ECE IT EEE
Medium: IT EEE Mechanical Electrical
Low: Civil Production Chemical
Very Low: Polymer Metallurgical Transport etc


All these are the expected cut offs after the final round of counselling!
*Edited seeing first day of counseling to keep it partly in tune with first round of counseling as well.*

Indian Engineering Colleges!









Feel free to discuss about all sorts of Indian Engineering Colleges over here: which are the best ones and which are not that great! From IITs to NITs to regional colleges, let us discuss each and everything in detail...
