Hey there!

If we talk about placements then firstly, it depends on the level of skill he/she has. IIT Roorkee has a good placement records as it provides 100% placements but the data says that placements are good for B.Tech and if we talk about Mtech then it's good for tech branches such as CS IT etc. The placement seems to be decreasing for previous few years but still you can work hard to get placed in a good company.

However if you are good at coding then students are placed 100% in top companies with high value packages. Also if we see the records M.Tech placements are better in NITs like NIT Trichy aur Warangal. Well studying in IIT, you just get that IIT tag but it will be of no use if even after 2 years you will not get placed there. You can either opt for research purposes or should enhance your technical skills to get a good placement.


Hope this helps

Hello Yash,

Hope you are doing well.

In the IIT's paper, questions are based on the Application Of Concepts. You should have a clear understanding of the concepts of the previous Grade to grasp current Grade IIT stuff. Cracking IIT needs a lot of creativity for problem solving in Physics, Chemistry and Maths.

Some Books I will recommend:

  1. IIT Foundation Physics Class 7 by Pearson
  2. IIT Foundation Chemistry Class 7 by Pearson
  3. IIT Foundation Maths Class 7 by Pearson
  4. IIT Foundation Science Class 7 by S.Chand
  5. IIT Foundation Maths Class 7 by S.Chand

Internet is the best way to understand and learn new concepts. You can browse for videos and notes on the topic you are having problems on.

IIT requires understanding of the concepts very well. You should also read books aimed specifically at a particular subject, like:

  1. The Feynman Lectures Volume 1,2 and 3: These books are really treasure by the most famous physicist of all time, Feynman. These three volumes would make you grasp the concept very well.
  2. AP Chemistry by Zumdhal: This books is really a good hunt for Chemistry with amazing explaination of concepts and intense questions for problem solving.

At last, I want to say that, don't pressure yourself and enjoy the process.

Good Luck!

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

The ECE department is very well-equipped with labs having the newest machinery and tools. 2 study rooms and high-speed WI-FI. For the hostel, I would say it is average. We have been given a single room with a cupboard, study table, Bed and fan. I don’t like the mess food too much as it lacks taste and variety.

College Infrastructure

Our hostel is awesome. Radhakrishanan Bhawan has free unlimited Wi-Fi, LAN, gym, canteen, TV room, elevator, indoor game complex, etc. The department of mathematics has a library, free Wi-Fi, and great supportive professors. The quality of food served in the hostel was average. But breakfast used to be great at our time. Classes are conducted in the lecture hall complex, which was at a distance of 10-15 minutes from our hostel.
