Can u guys tell me what to choose? And what are the conditions and rules at srm?
I'm planning on doing chemical engineering so should I go for SRM Chennai or manipal jaipur and please give me detailed answers
My parents absolutely fucked up my college admissions. I had plans to write a few private college exams and apply to a few colleges because I had a decent jee percentile too but my parents forbided me because they had plans to send me to a government college (via management seat) in my home state and I don't mind that but I would've liked a few backups but they feared i would take that as an opportunity to go to these fancy private colleges if I did get in (idfk what they were actually thinking honestly) so obviously I didn't apply to any colleges nor write any exams. Till yesterday my parents put me under the impression that I was going to attend the government college and then they drop the fucking bomb that they actually misheard the lady at the office and I wasn't given a seat, I was just given a spot on the waitlist and now they called and informed us that no one has cancelled their seat so I won't be getting an admission. So yeah, now I'm going to have to take a drop for no godamn reason 😭 and before y'all come in the comments being all like I should've studied for a merit seat instead of management, for starters, I didn't exactly want to go to this college and secondly its near to impossible to get in here for me bcz I'm aware of my abilities and I know the chances of me getting in is slim.
Anyways my big question what do I even do this next year? My parents are giving me the choice to either go for coaching or no coaching, it's up to me. But I don't want to waste any of their money by going for coaching for one more year and I know it's going to be useless bcz the college they wanna send me to is very very hard to get in and I definitely cannot get in through merit. But on the other hand if I don't go for coaching I'm gonna be so out of touch with all the topics and would have a hard time when college starts. I'd also like to work on myself and do something other than just studying bcz if I start coaching ik I will be completely behind that. Can you guys tell me how the drop year was for you and what did you do? And how you were feeling (I'm alr feeling terrible abt the fact that my friends r going to college and not me). I'm genuinely feeling so miserable right now bcz the thought of drop year puts so much anxiety in me (I don't come from a toxic household but I'd rather not sit at home all the time, it would just cause problems).
I have a close friend (not my closest), let's call her Tonya for now. We're both waiting for our college admissions to be finalized and still applying to colleges and Tonya is interested in doing BTech. She was expecting manipal but after the counseling session started she started talking about how she's not gonna get manipal. So during that time itself she would mention another college that she wanted to get into really really bad but it's very veryyy hard to get in over there even for management seats. Here's the thing, my father has a friend in the management who could help her get in. So I talked to my dad about her situation and about how hopeless my friend is feeling about all these college situations and he said he'll talk to his friend and do something about it. I didn't tell my friend about my dad's friend being in the management and about me talking to my dad about it but after my dad contacted his friend I told her and I'll attach the chats so you guys can see. She was very happy and relieved that my dad was doing this and all was well. Then I gave my dad's friend (let's call him jo) her dad's contact number and all that and I thought it's all set. Few days later Jo calls my dad asking him to make my friend's dad call him because he's not returning any calls or messages and is completely ghosting Jo. Jo had called friend's dad once and he described the conversation as very useless. After this dad's friend stopped returning the calls and messages and Jo called my dad saying how he put the effort into trying to get my friend a seat in this college and my friend isn't even returning the calls to even tell him if they want the seat. After hearing all this, my dad felt very bad because not only did he feel like he put his friend through trouble but also as if he overstepped by trying to get my friend and admission without talking to her parents first.
So naturally I called my friend to ask her what happened. I called her once the day after her dad was called and asked her what all happened in the call but she said her dad didn't tell her anything about a call so I left that and didn't follow up. This time I called her and asked why isn't her dad returning calls and all that and she's like her dad said the management seat fees were too expensive and I was like yeah I already told you that but you were fine with it then and it's not more expensive than manipal anyways and then I asked her why didn't they just tell Jo they didn't want the seat cuz it was expensive and she's like bro I didn't ask you to do all this and you put me in a difficult position. What she's saying is that she doesn't have to explain why she doesn't want the seat and when I try to explain to her that it's basic decency she pulls the "but I didn't tell u to go do that" card. Then I told her about how she thanked me when I told her about this in the beginning and she's like idk what else to say at that moment and I didn't want you to feel bad. Idk wtf she expected but I already gave her a heads up of everything and I honestly don't know what to tell my parents about her because they keep asking. I don't want to ruin her image as a friend but she's really really pissing me off. I don't know if she's being ungrateful or if I really did overstep.
I'm looking for affordable (less than 1000) jewelry stores online which sell anti tarnish jewelry. I'm a college student and I need smthn I can wear everyday without worrying whether it'll tarnish or not.
I recently tried a store names just lil things and their rings and bracelets are very high quality and after regular use still looks brand new but their necklaces r so bad. I used it once and it turned an ugly brassy colour.
​
I've heard newds is good but I don't wanna waste sm money on it blindly. Pls recommend some good places (especially for necklaces)
​
PS: DO NOT RECOMMEND HM, THEIR JEWELRY SUCKS
I'm coming from kochi to kollam to join tkm. Can I know how kollam is like and r there any fun activities. I'm not a homebody at all and I take great pleasure in just going out to places and having fun.
Cbse results kinda left me fucked so I don't have much hope from keam but my parents are hell bent on sending me to tkm (management/nri seat). My question is, is tkm truly truly worth the money that i will be paying (I heard nri seat will be around 12 lakhs??) or should I look for other options?
​
I got admitted into manipal main campus (through met) and pes university banglore (through jee) but the fees over there for the course I want will be around 18 lakhs but their facilities and campus life is kinda nice.
​
Also I heard tkm is getting very strict after being autonomous. So if that's the case what should I choose?
​
I'm planning on doing chemical engineering and I'd prefer a college that isn't too strict and expensive. My keam rank, if I had to guess, would be around 30-40k
​
Also what are the dress codes and hostels like in tkm and is it easy to fit in over there? The one thing bugging me is the fear that I may not fit in and may be prejudiced against cuz nri seat and all. Is there anyone who has faced any difficulties finding ur type of ppl there? I genuinely need all the nitty gritty details cuz I'm desperate rn since I didn't apply to a lot of colleges and only tried for manipal and bits (bits is out of the question cuz that shit is expensive af).
