Overall Rating
IIT Kharagpur is one of the best IIT’s in the country and is rightly called the Institute of Eminence. I chose IIT KGP because at my rank, I had options in all the IITs, but I was getting the branch Economics here, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions. It has one of the best and vibrant student cultures, and also victories in the Inter IITs show the same picture.
 

Academics Rating
My course is Economics, the admission is through JEE advanced and JOSSA counseling, you need a rank around 4000 if you are a general candidate to obtain admission here. You can find the eligibility on the JEE advanced website. My motive was that I always wanted to take Computer Science as the branch but did not have it due to my rank, so economics turned to be a really good option for me.
 

Faculty Rating
The faculty at IIT Kharagpur is really qualified in true sense, sometimes there are professors who are not very good in teaching but they are also qualified enough. Different professors have different style of teaching, but they take the needs of students under consideration while teaching, the courses are designed to match global standards here.
 

Placement Rating
yes
 

Hostel Rating
yes
 

Infrastructure Rating
The infrastructure of the college is a fair mix of old and new buildings all around the campus, the campus have adequate academic buildings, the library does get crowded during exams but at other times its fine, the amenities are available almost everywhere, the sports facilities are decent too, you won't face any problem regarding that in college.
 

Campus Rating
The campus life at IIT Kharagpur is no short of fun and excitement. Every day you will find something or the other major activity happening in the college. The societies and club culture in the campus is also very vibrant. We have two large scale fests in the campus and numerous others fests by department and societies, you will find a society for everything in the college.

    Being from a middle class family I have dreamt about getting into this Institute from Class 11. I didn't get much exposure to Engineering before, so I was very much excited.
