Absolutely awful experience. The level of incompetence and lack of professionalism was genuinely impressive. No complaints against the tech team if the tech head (AkSh) himself is this incompetent. It felt like nobody involved had any idea what they were doing.

Before we even talk about how they had no idea how to do anything with CTFd, the tech head seems so out of touch with basic networking that, instead of increasing router capacity or bandwidth to handle the overwhelming number of users, they thought handing out even more captiveportal logins would somehow solve the problem. Like, genuinely, how?

HUGE respect to everyone who walked out of the event before it even started and didn’t forget to pay their respects to the organizers.

One genuine question to the ex tech team of arch is there genuinely no one with tech skills or competence left in our college anymore that we just take anyone and make them head? Tbh I don’t think they were any better
Give me a day I’d find someone 10x better but TBF this happens every year happened in trace ctf as well these people genuinely just don’t understand.

Not to forget, people were still allowed to participate after walking out using hotspots, gaining an unfair advantage. There was absolutely no check for flag sharing or anything either. I mean, they would have if they knew how to use CTFd and read its logs, but again…for more details dm me lol

I know I might get hate for saying this, but I just want to share what I am feeling.

Before I start I admit that my CGPA is low, and I accept that I should have worked harder earlier. Ntg can be done now.

The frustrating part is that I do have decent skills, but I am still not getting shortlisted for many companies because of my CGPA.

I am mainly targeting T2 companies, and at this point, even a lower end T2 offer would also work as neither me nor my family are in a place to negotiate (ukwim).

What makes it more frustrating is seeing students with 8/8.5+ CGPA getting shortlisted for these companies, even when they already know they don't want the offer. Some of them are giving the OA and attending the interview only to deliberately get rejected because the package is not what they are looking for.

I completely understand wanting a better package. If you get this offer and then use it as a backup while trying for a better company, that's totally fair. You worked hard for your GPA and you deserve good opportunities.

But if you already know that you don't want the job, deliberately taking someone else's spot and then intentionally failing the interview feels unfair to students like me who genuinely need that opportunity. For some of us, getting even one decent placement can make a huge difference to our family's financial situation.

I am not trying to blame anyone or ask for sympathy. I just wanted to share how this situation feels from the other side.

Idk reddit removed my post: Maybe my words were too harsh ig, so had to use Al for a better presentation.

best CTF ever organised by the official technical club of cse aiml 🤣

All companies are selecting the same 20-30 people for interviews. These people are not clearing them, which is a waste of chances, even for Tier 2 companies.

Hey seniors! Need a lil help deciding the problem statement for our Capstone project.

1. How did you choose your research problem statement?

2. How do you determine if an idea is actually novel?How do you identify a genuine research gap worth pursuing?

3. What are the biggest mistakes to avoid while choosing a research problem?

And finally, how do you know whether a problem is actually worth working on, novel, and feasible within the given time or even resources?

Hey guys! I've finally cracked an internship. Or more specifically, an apprenticeship.

I won't be able to mention the name of the company here, but getting this apprenticeship comes with a pretty big roadblock.

I thought I'd escaped the whole placement kalesh, but unfortunately, this might throw all my efforts out the window. I'm currently in my 7th semester, and about a week ago, we had our placement orientation. Sridhar Sir, our Registrar, made it pretty clear that the college wouldn't grant an NOC for doing an internship during the 7th semester, except in certain exceptional cases.

So I wanted to ask, has anyone here been in a similar situation? Has anyone managed to get an NOC as an exceptional case for an internship/apprenticeship in the 7th semester?

If yes, what did you have to do? What kind of circumstances/documents helped make your case?

I could obviously let go of this opportunity, but honestly, this one feels pretty golden. I'm not exactly confident about placements working out either, especially since my CGPA is on the lower side and I haven't been getting shortlisted that easily.

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who's gone through something similar.

Someone changed email id in pesu app??

Why is CTC so low for British Telecom - 7 lacs only and that too performance based conversion only

Guys I came to ec campus a month before ...I saw the main building 6 floors and classrooms ..but in the orientation they showed gym running track and others whr is all that will even get time to play?

From my understanding, Bootstrap is an one week event to socialise with others before classes start. Should we carry our laptop, books, pens etc or what? I dont want to carry my laptop the whole day if its not even required.

Our guide keeps rejecting our project ideas saying there’s “no novelty”, but every idea we come up with already has something similar researched or implemented.
like are we supposed to invent something that has literally never been done before? 😭

The first year went by doing timepass, but now i genuinely wanna study. Not that I didn't study in the 1st year! But I feel that I could do better with proper guidance. So can i please get a brief guide about how papers will be, how much theory, how much actual problem solving and how strict the evaluation will be? I'm asking just because I don't want to waste my time studying less important stuff. Also meanwhile I also want to develop actual skills, so please guide me. And please don't tell me answers to these are already posted! I've gone through every one of them. I just want the pattern of questions and wanna know about how to manage college stuff with self study. Thank you.

have to buy a bag for college soon, will i look out of place if i pull up with one of those tote bags?

and if i do carry a backpack, like apart from my laptop what else do y'all carry on a daily basis? just so i can get a hunch on what type of a bag to buy, thank you!
(as a day scholar)

Just had a doubt to the seniors or anyone who might know, if I get an only internship offer from campus, and say it has a chance to become full time with a package would have fallen under tier 2, can I still opt for another internship+ full time job, say from tier 1?

I know we can switch to a higher tier job offer, but they said that internship offers were capped at 1, so if I get an internship offer, can I not opt for any other offer which has both internship + full time?

Thought to check but couldn't see anyone else who has asked this before.

Thanks in advance!!

My current CGPA is 6.31 and the placements are going horrible for me. First of all, 80% companies im not even eligible, and for the ones that I am, it is either the worst OA known to mankind or a quite CGPA filter that pushes me out. How did you guys get a good offer? Help me. I can't do this. I need to get placed 😔
