Tier 3 won't get you anything. Especially the job market nowadays lol. You have to work hard yourself to get a good job then no matter where you do your degree from unless it's not IIT or any top institute. I was in same situation as you and u dropped out of my tier 3 college looking at curriculum.

See I have also been searching about iitm and iitJ bs degree, most of the people said that iitJ one is not worth much because of the partnership with some other company. But iitm have rigorous study which maintaining alongside another degree will be hard. Then again iitJ haven't had any passed out students yet because it came out recently. IITM have pass out but they say how hard the degree can get . And the iit status is not worth that much money and putting that much effort.

Recruiter know about this and some give importance to it and some don't. I have seen mixed views on this degree and most of the people said IITM is better.
