hello jagan

as you are comparing colleges ,so don't just rely on a single view and research carefully before taking admissions .for this question ,i think i will chose doing btech from top NITs rather then a dual degree . i believe dual degree will help you more if you want to go into research field . after doing btech you have a lot new options than dual degree. also the placements is comparable between the two .even i think the placement is better in btech .so these are all my personal views and you should search more by yourselves

best wishes

As you are saying that your ST category Rank is 3067 there are less chances of getting it Because you are Belonging from Other State Quota.
But one of my friend getting Metallurgical Branch in MANIT Bhopal in 2018 having more than 3200+ rank but he is getting this branch becuase he is belonging from the home state quota.
Instead Of MANIT OR MNIT you can get easily metallurgical/Biomedical engineering at NIT RAIPUR.

But fill out the option correctly so that you can get better college
This is Year 2020 Everything is happen is unpredictable. so it hopes you can get MANIT.

Hello dear student

Actually both are partially similar in placement and campus life but the big difference in NIRF ranking .

Hi

Metallurgical and materials engineering at IIEST Shibpur is one of the oldest department

IIEST Shibpur has better than average placement especially in dept of metallurgy and mining.

Packages of 8lpa are common and Coal India, Vedanta, Tata steel visit for offering campus placements.

The average package across all branches stand at 6 lpa, higher than most NITs and comparable to Top 3 NITs.

Also it depends upon the demand in industries, market of that year and many other factors.

Hope it helps!
