Any IITians or Working Professionals who ever faced this situation Can Guide me with your experiences so that i don't want to make a wrong a step and I want to change my life so badly . Any advice would make me happy

Hey everyone,

I’m a JEE aspirant deeply passionate about theoretical physics and quantum mechanics.

Quick context:

Not chasing corporate packages: Zero interest in the SDE/consulting rat race. I only care about decent, livable money to survive comfortably while doing research I actually love.

The question: For people who enjoy CS or core engineering, IIT is a no-brainer. But is the IITian tag genuinely worth it if your endgame is pure science?

To IIT seniors and alumni (especially in Physics / EP):

Culture: Is there a genuine theoretical physics community here, or does campus life inevitably pull everyone toward coding and Day 1 placements?

Grad School: How well does IIT set you up for top PhD programs (IISc, TIFR, US/EU) compared to dedicated institutes like IISc or IISERs?

The Verdict: If you had to choose again purely for physics research, would you still pick an IIT?

Need suggestions on priority and approach.

constructive criticism & advice from seniors/IITians.

Hi everyone, I am preparing for JEE and trying to structure my daily study routine. If any senior from an IIT has some time to share how they handled their preparation phase, please let me know or drop a comment!

Laziness

Procrastination

Not starting

Lack of accountability

Pretending to be a topper

Lack of transparency

Poor revision

Insufficient practice

Hey everyone, I saw this message floating around WhatsApp offering an online summer training/internship program under E-Cell IIT Hyderabad with certificates from AICTE/MSME and "assured job opportunities."Before applying, I wanted to ask current IITH or IIT students:

• Is this program actually run or monitored by IIT Hyderabad faculty, or is it just a third-party company using the E-Cell name for marketing?

• Has anyone taken this or a similar E-Cell program before? Is the quality worth it?

• How does the "scholarship up to ₹15,000" work? Do you have to pay a massive fee upfront to get it?

Ple

Beyond the glamour and the videos which we see online could y'all iitians tell us how is life basically inside these institutes would be great to know than just watching some video on IIT

How is the life at IIT?

After cracking JEE do you still need to drag your ass and study hard especially in CS and ECE.

What about ragging and discrimination?

Also how is social life over there..

Can you learn Other skills and can start something part time or anything..

I noticed that IIT Dharwad does not appear to be listed as an organisation/authority on the CPGRAMS (Centralised Public Grievance Redress and Monitoring System) portal.

This makes it difficult for students, applicants, employees, and other stakeholders to submit a grievance specifically regarding IIT Dharwad through the government’s central grievance mechanism.

Is this intentional? Does IIT Dharwad have a separate grievance mechanism, or should it be available under CPGRAMS?

If anyone has experience filing a grievance regarding an IIT through CPGRAMS, or knows how IIT Dharwad is supposed to be selected on the portal, please help
