Firstly, I assure you this is an honest review and uninfluenced by anyone. This is for parents and students who are facing the same ‘college-JEE-etc-etc’ dilemma.
Here’s a brief background about me before joining Bennett. I have always been an electronics enthusiast and a maker. I love to building circuits, learning electronics from Youtube, and opening up electronics to see what’s inside. Yes, I was away from the ‘JEE race’. I was in love with science as a subject and used to read more than what was needed to clear the exams. However, I tried my best for competitive exams, but didn’t manage to score a decent rank in any of them (except for SAT 1420/1600). In 11th grade, I happened to join coaching classes for JEE out of peer pressure. I could barely cope up with their teaching speed and started lose interest in all of my favorite subjects. I quit the coaching (kudos to my supportive parents) and started to explore alternative ways of studying. I stopped going to school and used Byju’s, khan academy and other content on the internet. Studying at my own speed did give me greater conceptual understanding but no push for practice.
However, fast forward, I didn’t get into ‘Electronics Engineering’ in any of the good colleges. I was deciding between Bsc computer science in Ashoka University vs Electronics at Bennett. It’s not that I was not sure about electronics, I was attracted towards Ashoka’s curriculum and faculty.
