    IIT- A name which in itself is a brand many student dream to enter into.
    There is a race to be on top among all IITs which is mainly managed by NIRF which gives rank to all IITs and all the citizens of India follows this rank.
    NIRF says, they use strict parameters for ranking of college and on the basis of these parameter ranking were made but I have a doubt about the honesty of panel members, I think they are being biased towards some private institutes which used their resources to affect the decision of panel members. Just think (VIT) Vellore ranks above several reputed institutes like IIT-BHU, BITS-Pilani, Several NITs, DTU etc., whi

    Probably, the old IITs are the top IITs. Just because these institutions are well established and has very good alumni network which is spread all over the planet. The Indian Institute of Technologies are hard to compare. But, according to NIRF, IIT Madras is the best IIT offered the country. However, I don't agree with the NIRF ranking. IIT Bombay has been the favourite destination for the top rankers of JEE Advanced and has been the leading Institute of India in world rankings. I would like to add Indian Institute Of Technology, Patna to the list because its reputation is growing day by day. Recently, a student of IIT Patna bagged ha

    Hello dear,
    Well, if we talk about the engineering domain, IITs are incomparable as they all are governed by the same authority but yet if I compare them then it's like "Old is Gold". The old IITs are better as they are well established in infrastructure and the alumni network is global. Below is the list of IITs according to MoHRD in 2017:
    1. IIT Madras (Chennai) - Set up in 1959, third oldest
    2. IIT Bombay - founded in 1958 and is the second oldest among the IITs.
    3. IIT Kharagpur - Established in 1951, IIT Kharagpur is one of the most prestigious educational institutions in the country and also the oldest.
