VIT is a mixed bag when it comes to experience as a student. Infrastructure is very good, but the surrounding area of the college is a big problem. While studies are well taken care of by the excellent faculty members (one doesn't need to join classes), extracurricular activities are almost nothing compared to other colleges with similar CET cutoffs. Placements again are nothing to what it should be for a college with such infrastructure and faculty. No dream company visits the institute. 3-4 mass recruiting companies visit (mass recruitment 35-45students /company). Again, very less compared to other colleges and only IT companies visit. College festival turns out to be a very low happening affair mainly because of the surrounding area, but it is not that bad also. Travelling to VIT is quiet inconvenient (Again the locale). Crowd is decent and mostly typical engineering. Overall a mixed experience is what you can expect from VIT as of now. Hopefully, things will change for the better in the future.

You are just a new in engineering. So, just get dissolved in the engineering environment first. Keep going with your academics with proper studies, because in GATE you will be facing the engineering mathematics subject which are currently studying in the first and second year of B.Tech. Just start preparing when your 4 semester will starts. Keep track on the syllabus and pattern of the GATE paper every year. Just keep practicing the question of the paper. Download it for the NET. Just do the self studies only. And keep do studies with concentration. Because the syllabus is only your academics. Mainly from the 1-3 year of subjects and one or two subject from 4 year only.
Best of luck.
