Hi,
Comparison between BITS Pilani and IIT Kharagour depends on many factors:
- Branch: If you’re getting a Textile or a very low branch in IIT Kharagpur and you’re getting CSE in BITS Pilani, then go for BITS Pilani. But if you’re getting almost same branches or let’s say Civil in IIT Kharagpur and CSE in BITS Pilani, then go for IIT Kharagpur. Your area of interest will also matter in that case.
- Placements: In placements, you’ll not see much difference. If your academics scores are good in college, then you’re eligible for most of the companies visiting the campus. There might be a difference of few companies who might visit IIT Kharagpur and not BITS Pilani but that’s okay. Packages offered are more or less same.
- Campus: I think IIT Kharagpur has an edge here but BITS Pilani campus is not bad either.
- Brand: It’s like IIT Kharagpur >>> BITS Pilani. Trust me you’ll feel it when you’ll get out of IIT. That IIT tag is enough and adding Kharagpur to it, itself adds a value to your profile.
- Attendance: Well, BITS Pilani has a 0% attendance criteria and no institute can beat them in this. So, BITS Pilani wins here but this shouldn’t be the criteria to choose a college.
