Pata nahi 4 years kaise nikalunga....Plz give me tips to keep my interest in this 4 years 🙏🙏😭

Hey everyone! Sharing this because a few of the events are genuinely fun to watch or compete in if you're into robotics/engineering stuff — MAGNOVITE 2026, the interdisciplinary tech fest at CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Kengeri Campus, is happening on 15th–16th September.

Some of the highlights:

• 🤖 RC Robo Soccer — bring your bots, fight for the ball
• 🚁 Drone Maze Challenge — precision flying through obstacles
• 🏎️ RC Off-Road Challenge — built for chaos and mud
• 🧠 Apex Strategy — for the tactical thinkers
• 🏁 Drag Race Xtreme — pure speed
• 🛤️ Path Pursuit (Line Follower) — autonomous bots racing a track

Registrations are open here: [https://magnovite.christuniversity.in/events\].

Happy to answer any questions in the comments — I'm involved with organising this, so ask away!

I have my KPIT ass. engineer round 1 exam on 9th(Pune).

In the mail it says:

• WET (Written English Test)

[Basically they will check grammar and how you write based on given topics.]

• Cognitive

[General Apti like Indiabix and other]

• Domain

[CS essentials. OS, CN, DBMS, OOPS, SDLC, Cloud and any other I missed] main focus.

• Coding

[2 medium level questions they say] also imp to solve.

What do you guys think should be important to prepare considerin time remainin?
From where can we revise CN and OOPS?

If you have any other ideas pls drop it here.

(+ I have a doubt, my laptop's keyboard is lil broken and I use an external keyboard to type, in that case, can I bring my keyboard to the centre? )

I'm trying to make a repo for KPIT ques so that other students can also access it in the future.

(+ Also cuz )

final year student, thinking of pursuing GMAT. If you have already given GMAT or currently preparing for one, how has your experience been?
What are the non negotiables?
Please drop all your advices!

If anyone has an idea about how the OA format will be and which languages are accepted,
plzz do sharee !!

Hi. I am a student from Electronics and Telecommunication department from IIEST Shibpur final year .In my 3rd I secured internship at a consultancy company and got ppo henceforth. But I have keen interest in VLSI domain and hoping to pursue mtech but many are prohibiting me because job prospects will narrow down if I cut down my job and strictly go to mtech. may someone give an overview ..like the scenario after mtech(right now I am so baffled)

All of a sudden these lines appeared.. on the screen, i thought thwy will go away but it's getting worse. I'm not even able to read the texts properly now.

What to do? 😭

I am second year mechanical engineering student . I am new to mechatronics . I want to build a project in my third sem to learn mechatronics in correlation with automotive sector . So i decided to model an dbw throttle controller . The problem i am encountering are --

Not able to find resources to start this ?

like what skills i would need ( ai is giving me trash response) ?

Also can i use arduino in this or should i go for stm32 and its series ?

Thank you for reading this .

A doubt on how should i maintain a email

Hey everyone,
I’m an iOS developer with around 1 year 3 months of professional experience, and I’ve been thinking a lot about which direction I should take my career in.
I’m currently confused between:
1. Continuing to specialize in frontend/iOS development
2. Starting to learn backend development and gradually moving towards a more full-stack/backend-oriented role

My thought process is that backend seems to have a larger number of openings and, at least from what I’ve seen/heard, potentially better compensation and growth opportunities at higher experience levels.
I’m also wondering how much AI will affect frontend vs backend development over the next few years. It seems like AI is getting increasingly good at generating UI, components, and a lot of the repetitive frontend work, which makes me wonder whether being only a frontend/mobile developer could become more difficult in the future.

My current idea is something like:
Stay in my current role → learn backend alongside my job → get an opportunity to work on 1–2 reasonably strong backend projects internally → build some real experience → then switch companies.
But I’m not sure if this is actually a good strategy or if I’m overthinking it.

For people with 5+ years of experience, hiring managers, senior engineers, or people who have made a similar transition:
Would you recommend staying specialized in iOS/frontend, or learning backend and moving towards full-stack?
Is backend actually better in terms of opportunities/compensation, or is that just a perception?
At ~1–2 YOE, is it worth switching domains or should I build deeper expertise in my current stack first?
How do you see frontend/mobile vs backend being affected by AI over the next 5–10 years?

If you were in my position today, what would you do?
I’m not necessarily looking for the “highest paying” path. I mainly want to make a decision that gives me good career growth and keeps me employable long-term.
Would really appreciate perspectives from people who have been in the industry for a while.
Thanks!

TL;DR: 1.3 YOE iOS dev here. Should I double down on iOS or learn backend, gain some internal experience, and eventually switch? Is backend actually better for jobs/pay and more future-proof with AI? What would you do?

Honestly, if you're thinking about joining Food Technology at SRM KTR, I'd suggest you think twice and properly ask about how projects and placements actually work before taking admission.

We were recently told that doing our final project outside the college is now mandatory. The thing is, this was never told to us like this before. We were under the impression that we could do our project through the college with faculty guidance and use the department's facilities.

Now we're expected to find a company/research organisation on our own. And it's not as easy as it sounds because a lot of companies don't allow students to work with their data or projects due to confidentiality and privacy issues.

What makes it more frustrating is that we've already paid the fees expecting to have access to the college's academic facilities and support. So naturally, we're wondering why we can't even have the option to do our project within the college.

The placement situation is also confusing. Placement opportunities are advertised/communicated, but we're also being told not to expect placement support from the college. 😭

I'm not saying SRM should guarantee everyone a job or an external project. But if these things are going to be the student's responsibility, shouldn't that have been made clear before?

Just putting this out here because I wish someone had told me these things before I joined. If you're considering SRM KTR Food Tech, please ask these questions before paying the fees.
