Doubts about Dual degree - Part 2



This is part of the dual degree doubts clarification - Please read the first post on dual degree before reading this article - Click her for the first post on dual degree

The post will be in an interactive manner....i will be updating this post when I receive new doubts/comments about Dual Degrees

1)What is this M.Sc. degree?

M.Sc means Master of Science....It is the same M.Sc. degree you get after doin a Bachelor of Science(B.Sc.)...When you do normally M.Sc. takes 5 years ( 3 years B.Sc. + 2 years M.Sc.) but in BITS you can do an M.Sc. in 4 years without the intermediate B.Sc. degree

2)But dual degree is for 5 years right?

Ya it is...M.Sc. is actually a separate degree...but the BITS system allows every student doing an M.Sc.(hons) { not M.Sc (tech) } to take a dual in engineering/b.pharm and complete both the degrees in 5 years..At the end of 5 years you get 2 degrees...one Masters in Science and the other Bachelors in Engineering

3)What is the scope of M.Sc.?

Same as what a normal Masters in Science guy can do...With an engineering degree he can opt for all the options an engineering guy can go for...and also think of any permutation and combination of these 2 degrees

4) Does every guy with an M.Sc degree get a dual in engineering/b.pharm?

Ya every guy does....Dont believe in rumours...

5)Can you not choose an engineering dual/b.pharm ?

Ya you can prefer not to go for an engineering/b.pharm dual...some guys opt for another science degree...some just leave BITS doin only M.Sc after 4 years

  1. Suppose I wanna do dual in EEE+MSc phys in bpgc, and suppose I get a good score in bitsat(above EEE cut-off)... shud I chose the BE degree higher in the pref list or the MSc higher? Some students from bits told me I can choose the BE first, then at d end of the first year I can ask for an MSc degree also depending on cgpa... so how high a cgpa does a BE student need to get an MSc degree also?
    Thanks

  2. sir,
    I'm getting a score of 264 in BITSAT 2009.I read your advise to Purvi in previous post and it helped me a lot.I had a coaching at bansals kota for 2 yrs but my jee result isn't as good(i'm getting 166) and my expected rank in AIEEE is 9000. I,m a fresher and i'm in a dillema weather i should drop one year and try once again to get in IITs or not.
    After reading your post it occured to me that if i get addmision to any of dual degree programes at BITS probably bio(like you did and purvi n plans to) and with an effort for one year i cud shift to a reasonably better and respectable branch i could save one year and rescue myself from monotonocity of similar studies for one year.Sir, i wish to ask is it tougher than preparing for jee ??also i'm afraid that if somehow i couldn't perform well wat are the conseqenses?
    apart from above options i also have chance to get in NITs(with my score mentioned above) which of all do you think would be good for me?

    pleae help me out i'm really confused.
    thanx.

  3. @Dylan : Ya you should....taking an engineering should be your first option..if you cant get a good engineering degree then go for dual...At the end of 1 year if you are still interested in taking an M.Sc. dual you can take it provided you perform well in your first year

    @Kesha : No it isnt tough...but it will be mentally strenuous more than actual studies coz there are lot of diversions...friends departments computers hostels gals and so on...so you need to control yourself and work hard...you can anyway enjoy a lot ...balance of fun and studies is most important...on the other hand JEE is all work and no play

    If you are really determined to work hard go for duals...as for NIT which NIT will you get into???

  4. can i join as MSC and then take b tech and leave MSC

  6. Sir,
    If I take an M.Sc. degree in chemistry can I still take a B.tech in say mechanical or civil engineering or am I confined to chemical engineering.
    ReplyDelete
  7. @udit : That is the reason why I asked you guys to read the first post on dual degrees before reading this

    Anyways you can take up any engineering degree whatever the M.Sc. degree you j oin...it is purely based on your performance in your first year and not your M.Sc. degree

    The funny part being people have no idea about Chemical Engineering.....Everybody thinks Chemical Engineering is all chemistry + engineering...

    But the fact being it is 70% Physics...lot of Mathematics and less related to Chemistry :)

  8. thank you for your valued advice.
    As the results aren't yet out i don't know which NITs are for me but in my last query by "which of all" i meant weather i shld drop,go for then available NITs or opt for dual at BITS.

  9. sir if one take duals.........
    nd den score very well in his 1st yr.....
    den cud he be transferred 2 4 yr coursse......
    hv u evr hrd dat case........
    ReplyDelete
  10. @Keshav : Obviously duals at BITS...why spend an extra year at coaching centre when you can spend that for an extra degree

    @Anonymous : Irrespective of which degree you are if you have a very good CGPA say 9.5/10 you can go for an engineering degree transfer
    There are decent hunk of students from dual degree who took a direct transfer to engineering...

    Both dual degree and normal engineering guys do the same courses in first year ...so it doesnt matter which branch you belong to for a transfer
    ReplyDelete
  11. Sir,if we go for duals then we will get both msc degree as well as b.e degree.
    but my question is that do b.e students get more options then dual students in terms of placements,internship etc...
    n also off campus students are also given a b.e degree but they ain't at d same level with on campus students...so having only a degree really matter????
    ReplyDelete
  12. sir suppose i take in msc n den is it posseble that i myt make it to 4 year simple b.E...if yes den to what all branches can i migrate an wid wat cgpa
    '''????
    ReplyDelete
  13. err sirr this is a weird question but wud help me a lott...

    can u pls. temme wat all courses n subjects ned to be done in da first year ( to change ma branch ie get a high cgpa ) >????

    ps reply asap
    ReplyDelete
  14. Suppose I want mechanical in Bits after duals....u said about 200 students take duals....what should be my rank among them?
    ReplyDelete
  15. What's the use of duals, u waste a year. isn't it better to repeat, you are bound to perform better next year. In duals, u'll get a degree only in pilani. If u repeat, u'll get a degree maybe in IIT...so why go for duals?
    ReplyDelete
  16. @Anonymous 1 : Not exactly....the most important thing is the CGPA( your performance in BITS ) ...but the normal b.e guys have one sem placement...while M.Sc. guys have one week placements...on the other hand M.Sc. guys do one year intern ( more chance of getting placed during intern)

    And off campus guys getting a B.E. what is that???

    @Anonymous 2 : Ya it is...but you need to get a CGPA of 9.5+...around 10 students get a transfer to engineering from first year..so getting a trasnfer is very tuff

    @AAbnoymous 3 : All guys do the same courses in first year....as for course list check the dual degree 1 post

    @Vishal : for mech you should be in among the top 120

    @Anonymous : Hahahahahaha funny...how many repeaters get into JEE????

    Do you have any idea about the number of people who simply waste an extra year and still not qualify into a goo engineering college???

    Do you know the main reason why repeaters fail inspite of having an upper hand on first attempt guys???

    It is frustration and diversions which kills their enthusiasm to study and get a good rank

    Repeating according to me is the worst phase of your life...

    On the other take a dual ...get an extra degree... better opportunities and a degree from BITS

    scored 296 in bitsat (screwed up physics sec.)

    wat i want to do...

    1.B.E in CSE from pilani campus

    now wid my score dats almost impossible......

    Is there any way i can make it into pilani CS in the second year and yet complete B.E in 4years..???

    EVEN IF it means slugging it out for yet another year....m all up for it...

    :: nething for cs :)

    i feel all that my talent in computers will be wasted if i don't get CS

    ps. suggest a soln. sir.....this post i guess will clear out a lotta things for oders as well

    n yea ... btw

    ALL THE VERY BEST FOR UR PLACEMENT...

    HOPE U DO WELL :)

  19. hi i just wanna reconfirm tht every guy with an msc degree get a dual degree???
    also wht shd be the score(cgpa) in Ist yr to get a CS branch.
    do the guys in BE also opt for msc degree(whts the significance)? i think BE is lot more better than msc.
    ReplyDelete
  20. i;ve 1 more ques.
    if i opt for msc(obviously bcz of less score) n score a gud cgpa in Ist yr,thn the branch for dual degree(BE) will be decided by me or the bits comm. will decide it??

  21. philosopher asking
    sir i am getting 255 what are my chances of getting a MSC_DUAL in physics or info. sys.
    and what shud be my performance to ensure a BE in electronics,electrical or mech.....
    i am totally confused
    please answer soon.....:-(
    ReplyDelete
  22. @arvind mehta : Ya you can if you make a CGPA around 9.7/10 which is very very very tough...only 2-3 guys out of 800 get a transfer to computer science...The other option should be taking a dual degree and go for CompSi dual :)..

    @rohit : Ya every person gets a dual in engineering or B.Pharm(people with very less CGPA get B.Pharm)

    A cgpa of 7.8+ is required which according to me requires decent hardwork

    Ya some guys from B.E. opt for M.Sc dual to gain an upper hand for higher studies....A masters degree is always helpful for higher studies

    And for the branch...you must give a preference order as you give now...and if you cross the minimum required CGPA for that degree you will get it

    @Philosopher : Mostly no...you could M.Sc. Bio or B.Pharm...to get a electronic dual you need a cgpa of 7.5+ and for mech around 7+

    And you cannot get dual with M.Sc. Information Systems under normal circumstances....you need a high cgpa...9+ mostly
    ReplyDelete
  23. if a person takes msc then wats d min cgpa 2 get cs in pilani camus in 2nd yr

  24. sir if i make it as in comp sci. dual will i be still able to complete my BE in 4 years???

    i dunt wanna spend 5 years for it... is it so ??

  25. by seeing 2008 cutoff, i had a chance of getting b.pharms at hyd.can i join it

  26. sir
    at 295mks i can get mech in goa and phy dual in pilani according 2 last year cutoff
    wudnt getin into pilani be a much better idea as cgpa of 7.5 is quite manageable an du get an xtra degree for the cost of 1 yr.
    and yes i am only 16 yrs. old so a few years wasted wont matter much(not dat doin msc will be a waste).
    pls. comment
    and if possible start an article related to counselling procedure and branches of engg.
    ReplyDelete
  27. @Anonymous : Around 7.8+ after the end of first year

    @Arvind Junior: What???If you take a dual you will have to complete it in 5 years....only normal b.e. guys can do it in 4 years

    @siddhartha : What are your other options...I wont advice join B.Pharm unless you have any other good options

    @Debjit : Ya you can...but many people loose interest stop studying and end up with bad duals...so be prepared for slogging hard for one more year...else you will repent not joining Goa campus which according to me is a wiser and safer option

  31. heylo, karan here, i have secured a modest 248 marks in bitsat 2009. looking at the cutoffs of 2008, i may just (god willing) get MSc Biological in either BPHC or BPGC....i am quite interested in pursuing it but recently i read a query on www.bits360.com by someone who had written that 'the placement scenario for MSc Biological is not as good as the other branches'....is this true??? if yes, should i stop thinking about pursuing MSc bio???
    ReplyDelete
  32. @260 : If you want a good dual in engineering and are ready to work hard then go for it....what are the other options you have

    @292 : Check the post on cutoffs

    @276 : Ya you need to compete with all to get a good CGPA but getting 8 is neither that tough nor that easy...it is all about mental strength rather than actual hard work.....you have lot of diversions...so the one who keeps his mind focus will get a good dual
    ReplyDelete
  33. @akran : First read the post on dual degrees...

    Your placements depends on the engineering dual you get not your M.Sc. degree

  34. Sir, got 276 in bitsat. should i go for duals in pilani or chemical in goa or hyderabad? in ur querry with ankit(19 th may) u agreed dat goa placements r nt dat gud. scord 227 in aieee n 190 in jee. totally hopeless n dejectd. pls help...
    ReplyDelete
  35. @276 :Placements in Goa were not as good as the top NIT's...doesnt mean they are bad....infact the placements last year were very good...but due to recession the scenario has changed completely...when you pass out dont worry about recession and stuff...you will surely have good placements :)

    Again depends on your interest if you want to take a dual work hard for one more year or take and engineering in Goa...purely depends on your interest and level of commitements

  36. sir,
    im getting 263 in bitsat......and im scoring 226 in aieee.....thus im not getting a good stream in any of the 3 top NITs(i mean trichy,warrangal,surathkal).......

    ......in an earlier post i learned that i will be getting only MSc in Bio in pilani(pls rectify me if im wrong).....will it be better if i join this dual course rather than any other NIT?????

    ...also can you pls giv n idea about how tuff it is to get a cgpa of 8+ with Biology in the 1st year.......thank you.....
    ReplyDelete
  37. @samikshan : What all degrees will you get at NIT's??? If you are prepared to work hard and get a good engineering degree your sacrifice of not joining an NIT will be justified...else dont go for it

    Everyone does the same courses in first year...so it doesnt make a difference what course you join BITS with

    ReplyDelete
  42. Sir I got 285 in BITSAT 09. Maths was easy, I think physics did me in....
    What are my prospects? I read your blog and I think it is duals... And will I get duals in Pilani?

    Nonetheless here are some of my doubts.....

    i hav hrd abt dual degrees @ bits,plz clear some of my doubts.

    1)Is a BE degree damn assured as a dual?Even the thought of getting BPhram with low cgpa has bcom a nightmare.How many of them usally gets BPharm?Or how difficult is it to get a good BE(EEE,CS,Mech)?

    2)If a guy goes for MSc in Goa is he assured a BE as there is no BPharm in Goa?

    3)If an MSc guy gets a BE @ d end of 1st yr,is he treatd d same way as in BE(Hons) counterparts,i mean during placements will he be put aside saying that this guy was not capable enough to get BE in the 1st attempt,so he is not gud enough(discrimination)?Or is there any difference in the course structure of BE as dual and the normal BE?

    4)A BE degree usually requires 4 yrs & MSc takes 2 yrs to complete.But in BITS the MSc+BE is finished in 5 yrs time.Doesn’t this mean more workload?

    5)I hav been told that MSc Eco is gud coz its ezy to get gud cgpa @ d end of 1st yr.If 1st yr syll is comm. 2 all then why Msc Eco is preffrd?

    6)the course structure of different programs r provided in the BITS site. only the course details of 2nd 3rd &4th yr r given(5th yr missing).If we do our MSc in 2nd yr& 3rd yr when is the time 2 do the BE course?

    7)An MSc guy getting EEE or CS @ d end of 1st yr is in a better position than a BE(Chem,Civil) guy inspite of the former scoring less than the latter in bitsat. Is this a bit unfair?

    And sir I read you too are a dualite.... It would really cool if you could write a post about your personal experience as a dual student. What have your trials and successes been? How hard or easy was it for you to get a BE after the first year..... What is the commitment required? ...stuff like that... I think info straight from the horses mouth is the best!

    ReplyDelete
  46. @Rishabh : I love guys like you who do read the blog properly...do some research and post genuine doubts and most importantly in the form of points...so here are all your answer...a pleasure to answer to such queries :)

    1)Only 3-4 guys with very very very less CGPA get B.Pharm dual...even if you study for 3-4 hours before the exam you can get into and engineering dual :)...but seeing some guys who are pathetic...hopeless and tooo lazy I watn every guy on my blog the possibility of getting a B.Pharm dual if you dont study...It is just a warning so that no one can blame me in future :)

    2)Ya he is assured....worst case Chemical

    3)Actually M.Sc. guys are preferred during placements and internship...For example the cutoff for MY PS2(internship/project work) @ QualComm is 7.5 for normal B.E.guys while for M.Sc.(hons) dual guys it is 6.7 ...

    Some companies have a policy not to take guys during placements in campus who do not passout in 4 years...only few companies have such policies and it is not of much concern...When you go for off campus placements you can anyways join those companies

    4) The beauty of BITS system :) An M.Sc. in BITS takes 4 years....A B.E. in BITS takes 4 years....and you do almost all common courses in 1 and second year....so in third you do your M.Sc. courses and in 4 your B.E. courses....in 5 year you do your PS2(internship/project work) or thesis...As for hectic it is a bit hectic...but you dont do more than 7 structured courses any sem :)

    5)No it is good coz you get a good CGPA in M.Sc. Eco courses i.e. 3 year...not first year....also you can go into the field of finance and economics if you go for M.Sc.(hons) Eco...And I say it again and again...all guys do the same courses in first year :)

    6)You do common courses in 1 year...almost all common courses in 2 year along with 2-3 branch specific courses...third year you do your M.Sc. courses...in 4 year your B.E. courses...in 5 your PS2 or internship

    7)No it isnt...The risk your taking hoping to get a CompSci or EEE dual should be rewarded...and the distinction between Civil/Chemical and etc is only for placements....for MS Civil/Chemical guys have more opportunities as the competition is less :)

    And for MBA it doesnt matter at all which discipline you belong to

    And for my story - it will be like a Bollywood movie :)

    Will write it some time later when I am free

  54. All thanks to >>Arvind<< and other BITSians, I have made up my mind to join BITS pilani(after going through this blog and bits360 completely) .Though this may sound stupid I am really desperate to know about the first year books and how to crack the exams in the first year. I would request you to give a vivid idea about:
    1) The books needed for my first year preparation(Please dont be reluctant to mention this because I am seriously aiming for a high cgpa and I am determined to start my preparations now)
    2)The exam schedules...tho i have read that it is continuous evaluation..please tell me when the main exams will be for the first sem and out of how many marks will it be..are the teachers stingy..:D..
    3)Do your room mates let you study incase you are seriously studying..
    4)Please give us an idea about the academic calendar of a first yr student..[like jun so and so ..july...]...
    awaiting your reply..thanks a lot in advance...:-)
    ReplyDelete
  55. @Killer : Great....Welcome to the BITSian family

    1)The books hmmmm...try them @ bits360.com...I am not in touch with first yearites...
    2)In Pilani you have exams almost everyday...it is tough...but on the other hand you dont have compulsory attendance :)...so plan properly the schedule you can get it only after going to the campus...it changes every year
    3)Depends on your room mate...My room mate was a great guy...we both got M.Sc.(hons) transfer from Bio...he took Physics
    4)It starts in August...and the weekly exams start from second week...there is continous evaluation...there is a cul fest in october for which you get around 10 days of Holiday...before the cul fest you have test series 1 for 20% and test series 2 for 20%...the final will be from dec 1 to dec 15 for 40%...the continuous evaluation in the form of surprise quizes...tutorials...labs and other stuff which accounts for 20%

  62. hi, dis is Bhavesh....
    First of all, "GREAT, hilarious & outstanding WORK"
    Secondly, I ve read 'both articles' comments & replies.... but still want to ask you a small doubt in my own words ...... coz i m still in a bit of dilemma !

    I was bed-ridden for almost a week jus be4 xam even on the day of exam i was ill ..... yet i scored 307 .... more than what i expected in these circums ..... but still less than what i can get !

    So what's better for me ....
    1> Take a drop and appear for BITSAT 2010
    2> Take a Dual

    Mare about me...
    " i seriously want to take research + teaching as a profession so is this path correct:-

    take M.Sc.(hons) Physics in Pilani .... then opt for ECE dual ....

    PLZ guide me coz i have no one else than you to help me ... really !
    ReplyDelete
  63. @Pay package : Why are you so worried about my pay package...Even i am not so considerate of my future :)

    @rupali : 1) Dual obviously
    2) Decent effort required...should control yourself from lots of distractions :)
    3)Ya do check the post on difference between dual degree and transfer

    @Bhavesh : Thanks finally someone does appreciate my comic sense :)

    Anyways why do you want to drop an extra year???Instead take a dual and get a good degree and do justice to the extra year :)

    M.Sc. + B.E : Research in so many diverse fields ...

    There is no ECE in Pilani campus but it doesnt matter as you can do all Communication related courses as electives by taking a EEE dual...

    And 306 is not a bad score...put decent efforts in your first year and get a good dual in engineering

  64. hello sir this is sumit........
    thanks to your guidance and bits360 (i have been reading your blog since april)
    i may get branch of my choice at manit bhopal (m.p.) through the aieee exam....( through the state quota){marks in aieee 200 ;eml in iit jee 2009;}

    i have secured 286 in bitsat 2009 is still dual at bits a better option ?

  67. @sumit : join BITS...

    @transfer to Chemical : Around 9.2

    @Anonymous : 1) No idea
    2) M.Sc.(hons) if you are willing to spend an extra year and get a good engineering dual....M.Sc.(tech( if you want to pass out in 4 years and dont care about Engineering degree :)

  68. Arvind, can you throw some light on actual career options and company names for MSc. Bio Sciences? What is really this branch all about? What kind of subjects are taught in this.

  70. @Mukul : It is masters in Biology...equivalent to degree you get after you complete your B.Sc.(degree) + M.Sc. ....your placement and your future depends mostly on your engineering degree...

    Your can do your higher studies related to one of the fields or a combination of the fields

  72. Hi, Madhumitha here
    I got a 288. I want to take up a dual in chemistry and computer sci. Does the instituion definitely give out 35-40 seats in all branches of engg according to my cgpa or is it availability based??
    ReplyDelete
  73. @Anonymous: There is no B.E. IS in Pilani....we have M.Sc.(tech) Information Systems which is equivalent to the B.Tech Information Systems in any other college except that you get a masters degree after 4 years and is not an engineering degree

    You dont get duals with M.Sc.(tech) degrees....Only with M.Sc.(hons) degree you get duals in Engineering

    @Madhumita : They give 35-40 seats in every branch.....Civil and Chemical have lesser number of dual seats as people are already accommodated into CompSci/EEE/EIE/Mech

  74. sir, BHAVESH again...

    some of my father's officemates were sayin that with 307 on the cards, it is impossible to get 'pilani', due to some reasons i may not be able to go GOA/HYD. 'if not pilani, then not BITS'- dats what my parents say.
    They have no problem if i go for dual, but only physiX ...... they r so specific!

    what can i do now !

  75. Sankeerth, Sir
    My score in BITSAT is 270.Can i get selected? can i do dual degree? actually interested in B.Tech ece or civil.
    Give gud suggestion for my best carrier .
    ReplyDelete
  76. @Bhavesh : Your dads officemates are fools...They may be elder to me but in the knowledge about engineering they are worse than you
    Such people have fixed notions and only think in one direction...What is more important is your career and their advice does not help the cause...

    I may sound rude but I hate such people who try to rub their idiotic thoughts on others children

    Anyways with 307 you will surely get Pilani...Physics also

    If you want to hear success stories of BITSians with Eco/Chem/Maths/Bio other than Physics search on www.bits360.com/forum

    Tell your dad to read my blog and it is your future so stand up

    And for Goa...it is a very very good college....visit www.bits360.com/forum for more info

  84. You keep saying it is better to take a dual at BITS than any branch at an average NIT like jaipur or bhopal. Why so? You waste one whole year. Isn't it better to grab what you want at NIT? Is wasting one year worth BITS with a 'worthless' Msc degree needed? (i'm saying worthless becuz it does not help at all in engineering. I came to this conclusion after asking MANY MANY people....my tution teachers, father, his colleagues, even a BITSian.)

    No, I repeat, no person, who isn't it BITS advised me to take it over comp sc. in MA-NIT. In fact, they said BITS Goa was bad too, but I can't say about that.

    Please give some valid reasons on why to spend one year extra, when in the end you get paid almost equal to a b.tech grad when u finish ur degree. I know Msc helps in research, but I don't wanna do research. In fact, most don't. They join as engineers or do MBA.

    Will MSc help in M. Tech in India?
    ReplyDelete
  85. I was advised not to go to goa, not only becuz the environment is very diverting (It's in goa, land of booze and drugs etc.), but also becuz i was told companies look at the environment in which u studied, and they won't have pleasant views abt goa.
    Which is better goa or hyderabad. I know right now hyderabad is not completely developed, but by the time we graduate, it might get better than goa. What do u think?

    Also, I get this feeling that due to goa's location, it might turn into something like Manipal.
    ReplyDelete
  86. @ankit : There is bad notion about the M.Sc degrees we get that they are worthless and only B.E. is best...but our system is the core for interdisciplinary research and higher studies which actually is more advantageous than doing general engineering

    Even our ex president Abdul Kalam when he visited our campus was very much impressed with this system and said that the future is in inter disciplinary research work itself

    As for NIT vs BITS as I always say you just even think of comparing the two colleges...they are light years apart....

    Also for the extra year you spend doin an intern and it really helps in getting better jobs for sure

    An M.Sc. degree will surely help for MS/M.tech simply because you have many many many more fields do a masters in engineering

    Simple example : Say you join M.Sc. ( Bio) and take CompSci dual -just google search the number of fields you can do research/higher studies i.e. M.Tech or MS


    @Vishal : Bad environment and diverting ...control your tongue bro...Booze and drugs are more rampant in IIT's and NIT's and BITS authorities are very strict with ragging and boozing/drugs

    Companies dont care where you study....they just see whether you have had quality education adn if you can sustain the company pressure...and BITSians are very good at handling pressure

    Goa was established in 2004...why do you think now it will turn into a Manipal???

    Your bad notions about Goa will surely help some other guy take your place

    So make a wise choice

    And do show your parents the blog www.bits360.com/forum
    ReplyDelete
  87. When you do an extra Msc degree, and u write that in ur resume, compainies will definitely notice that, and when you explain about it, it will create the impression that this guy could not get comp. sc. in the first place, so he took this route. So, you see, a bad impression is created.

    My dad told me of a guy some of his colleagues were interviewing. He had got decent marks in everything. But he had completed engineering in 5 years. On questioning, he said he lost one year du to jaundice. The interviewers didn't believe him much, and became sceptical about him. So, you see, a dual may harm your prospects, becuase it's not the original 4 year course. Plus you waste a year.

    Don't you think a four year course in NIT would be better?

    Please give me reasons why NOT to join an average NIT in your home state (like Nagpur).
    ReplyDelete
  88. @Ankit : When you have such prefixed notion no one can change your mind...just join an NIT and save my time

    Companies infact prefer dualites over normal engineering guys in many cases...Some companies though have a rule that they dont select guys through placements who pass out in more than 4 years....But even in such companies you can have offcampus/walkin placements...anyways my advice will never convince idiots like you...

    Do you think that the thousand of BITSians who passed out of BITS with dual degrees are fools????

    @Others : You make that extra year count by doing 1 year internships in companies(like I do - 1 year intern @ QualComm) ...also the dual degree helps a lot in higher studies...

    One must not care about the placements.... Your initial placement doesn't matter at all...what matters is your higher studies...the opportunities you get...how you develop as an individual

    And BITS is way better than NIT's in such things

    case2:i have taken mech at goa

  91. i asked thst coz at 294 i am almost certain of gettin mech at goa and msc eco dual at pilani
    i wanna join bts ahead of any nit

  93. Thanks bhaiya...
    I'm interested in taking admission in pilani campus itself... got 281... last year's cut off for dual course in bio sc n eco were 274 n 285 resp... now since the opening of new iits, im expecting the cut off to fall this yr... at max be the same but not rise... so tht shuld make at least bio sc at pilani a certainty... i'd like u to comment on my calculation...
    also my query is whether i can switch my MSc course aftr 1st yr... i dont wanna take bio but am really interested in takin eco as second degree as it'd be gr8 to have a subject of tht nature along wit a sc degree... also im interested in doing MS latr n so will i be preparin throughout 4 it in all the 4 yrs... hope the multiple courses of dual wont be a hurdle in tht... i ve read in ur earlier post tht one can but just need an assurance... sorry but im a bit anxious about this if u culd understand...

    ( physics or bio ...etc.)
    ReplyDelete
  95. @Ayan : You shld get Bio in Pilani..Border case for Eco...Ya you can..please check the post on difference between duals and transfers....you dont prepare for MS...you perform well in your academics first and then take up GRE coaching in your 3 or 4 year or even 5(if you take up a dual)...the most important thing for a good university in US is your performance in college...your GRE score plays a minor role once you cross a cutoff

  97. hi my bitsat score is 292
    can you tell me why dual degree cut offs are so low .are placements for btech better than duals
    ReplyDelete
  98. @292 : Because 90% of the people join a dual degree only to get a better engineering degree...so when you get an engineering of your choice in the first place it is not advisable to go for a dual degree

    No placements for both depend mainly on three things
    1) Your Branch
    2) Your CGPA
    3) Your extra curricular activities

  102. thanks.. gone thru ur blog again n its clear now... i'm joining whichevr hons branch i get at pilani.. in extreme case if i dont get any shuld i go for goa or hyd?? i ve gone thru the websites of both... infrastruture at goa is awesome but culdnt find much about faculty there... howevr i ve gone thru the faculty list of hyd n it was impressive... how's the faculty of goa n how does it compare wit pilani n hyd campus??
    Ayan
    ReplyDelete
  103. @udit : Dint get you

    @Ayan : The thing is that the part of faculty of new campuses is from Pilani and there is constant echange of faculty to improve standars in all the colleges...
    Goa faculty is very good and more important is the BITS degree...and going for an established college is more desired than a very new campus...so give preference to Goa and not for Hyd and just dont go by the faculty

  104. i am getting 306 ....should i opt fr electrical at goa....or any gud dual at pilani?????what r the duals i can get and which one would be best???is there any scope of dropping out frm dual and go fr the simple B.E. degree after a year???
    ReplyDelete
  105. @306 : Electrical @ goa

    You will get all duals in all the campuses but why take the trouble....join Goa campus...you will get a decent degree

    And no you cannot drop out of dual degree once you join in BITS and go for simple B.E.....for doing that you need a very very good CGPA...close to 9.5 out of 10

    do i stand a chance 2 get in2 this dual degree in any bits campus?
    i didnt hav bio in 12 so even in d worst case scenario cudnt possibly study b.pharm, could i? then i should be able 2 do b.e. in chemical?

  109. This is Rishabh

    Sir gr8 posts so far.

    OK. My bro works in TCS and I was just going thru the company profile and found out that TCS's CEO S Ramdorai is an MSc. + BE

    This brings me to my next doubt.
    Its stated on bits360 that the normal BE guys get a very light last sem as they complete their electives before the 4th yr. What about a dualite?

    As in if I as a dualite complete my electives before my 5th yr PS2 ans stay on campus for a thesis.... do I get the free time to prepare for job interview and GRE/CAT etc.?

    How practical is this hypothesis, is it very diff to complete those electives?

    And you also commented on the course load of a dual degree but I could not get you at that time could please brief me about the course load again? I know in relative terms a dual is more hectic than a normal BE. But in general how demanding is the dual course. Please try to mention some details regarding working hrs per day for some diff sems.

    Take your time to reply..after all I am the one who is totally free! :)
    ReplyDelete
  110. @deepa : Border case...very tough to answer unless one knows the trend of this year BITSAT...the safe option would be to apply for BITS and attend NIT counselling..Nope for an MBA your degrees dont matter...your college and your work experience does matter...

    NIT tag might help

    @Anonymous : Around 6...very eassy to get that CGPA :)

    @Rishabh : the funny part of TCS CEO is he wants to come for placements from BITS but our college placement incharge had some confrontation with him and is not allowing TCS for placements :)...I am not sure if it is the truth or just a rumour

    Dualites dont have a light sem till 4 year
    Dualites generally do 2 PS2(2 sems internship) in 5 year...but some sensible guys who prepare for CAT or GRE or GMAT stay one sem on and do a thesis...

    For doing a thesis you dont have any classes or any exam but pure research and this means you have a lot of free time

    You can also attend complete sem placements during this one semester unlike normal dualites who have only one week placement

    There is nothing like working hours per day...you just need to be focused on your academics...that will help you to get a good CGPA..

    As for the dual degree being hectic it is sometimes but it more mental than physical :)

    ReplyDelete
  118. @Vaibhav :
    1) See the point is you cannot get a transfer to an M.Sc.(hons) and then take an engineering dual - no such cases are possible....i.e. if you take a transfer after first year to M.Sc. you will not get a dual in engineering but do only an M.Sc.(hons) course for 4 years
    2) To change to an engineering degree you need a CGPA above 9.2 for BITS
    3)If you get an M.Sc. Bio for transfer and dual stuff read post on difference between duals and transfers...adn other posts on dual degrees

    ReplyDelete
  127. I have a score of 295 in BITSAT 2010.
    I know I won't get a core stream aa pilani.

    * Can I get M.Sc in Chem, maths, phy at pilani? Preferably physics.
    * How are the placements for the dual guys, does it depend on the "Dual" tag? Are they less preferred?
    * And,
    * Do we get two different degrees at the end of 5 years? So, like I need not show my M.Sc at while applying for an engineering job.?
    * Are the degrees from BITS Pilani Recognised? Recognised in the sense for IAS, IES and other competetive exams?
    * How difficult is it to get mech,eee,e and i, and cs with duals?


    And, regarding the following extract from your blog,
    "

    * What is this dual degree transfer??

    Ok I forgot there is another kind of transfer - Thanks to killer kiran I am editing this post :)

    An M.Sc.(hons) guy can get a transfer to another M.Sc. (hons) degree after first year . This transfer is not directly based on your CGPA but on the engineering degree you obtain after first year.

    Say I join with M.Sc.(hons) Biology and then based on my CGPA i get a dual in B.E. Computer Science . Then I can opt for a transfer to M.Sc.(hons) Mathematics

    My final degree would be M.Sc.(hons) Mathematics with B.E. (hons) Computer Science

    If you get a CompSci dual you can transfer easily to Mathematics and if you get EEE dual you can easily transfer to Physics

    Transfer to Economics is based purely on CGPA...the one with higher CGPA among those who applied will get the transfer
    "

    What are the options in this regard for mechanical?

    i have got 285 in bits and will most probably be getting either a msc or a chemical in goa or hyd. what i want to know is
    1) is chemical btech better or an msc thru which we can change to a better course better?
    2) in dual do we have to attend double classes and all so that we can complete both btech and msc in 4 years ( the fifth being taken up in internships and all)?
    even after reading all ur blogs related to dual am confused bout this thing.sir plz answer as soon as u can. thanks....

  143. Sir,
    My score in BITSAT 2011 is 275. I am sure this score will not fetch me a BE prog in any of the 3 BITS campuses. I would like to opt for dual degree in any of the 3 campuses.
    I request U to kindly advise regrdng the following:
    1) What should be my preferences campuswise based on my score??
    2) Should I give any BE preference first followed by dual degree ( any chance of getting?)? If so what should be my campus wise pref.??
    3) What is the placement scenario for dual deg.?
    4) For dual degrees is there any capmpus wise ratings based on faculty, placement ( company's visit+placement)??

    Regards,

    RONIT DUTTA,
    Kolkata,WB
