Hello Student,

Definitely, you need to purchase your own stuff whether you get admission in an IIT institution or any other college. A laptop is an integral part of en engineers life, especially at institutes like IITs, NITs and any other college. In a recent notification, IIT Bombay- one of the best institutes for engineering in India, has written to parents of the students who will be joining the institute this year, advising them not to provide their children with laptops/computers for the first semester.

A prototype of the laptops was distributed among IIT-B freshers for free while an upgraded version is being sold to schools and colleges in interior villages. So far 1600 laptops have been sold along with an additional order for 200 units, which are currently being manufactured.

Regards!!

Hello,

Requirement of laptop depends on the curriculum of the course. You will need a laptop for presentation work, assignments, lab work and project work. So you will need a laptop right from first semester if you have the above tasks in your curriculum. Sometimes you may have to prepare a seminar presentation as an assignment. Civil Engineering course has lab works and you will have to learn designing software like AutoCAD, Solidworks and other such Designing softwares. It will be helpful if you have a laptop so that you can learn these softwares and practice. You have to take up project in final year for that you will have to work on laptop.

Dear aspirant,

As you have mentioned that you want to know about which year does autocad is taught for civil engineering students in nit/iit so let me tell you that autocad is taught in 1st year or 2nd year depending upon the college you choose.

So, as per my view you need to keep a laptop as you are going to college. You would need the laptop for these kind of softwares.

Hello aspirant,

Mobility - firstly check on mobility mainly. Battery also important 13 or 14 inch is best.

Display- first of all make sure the display is good.

CPU- check on cpu mainly. Cache size,no.of cores, frequency and thermal design power.

Storage type and capacity.

Various like battery, keyboard, graphics.

It’s all about what OS you used to work with.

finally you can choose depending on cost and model company etc.

hope it helpful.

thankyou.

Hi Aspirant,

Hope you are doing great as per the question asked by you yes you can easily give exam with 1.5 gb data. Generally you need to set video quality to average or medium so that internet is not exhausted early you should certainly disconnect all the devices for better connection speed and interuption less process of examination.

Hope you found this answer useful.Stay motivated stay positive.

All the best!

Hello Karthik,

Yes, you can use MacBook Pro laptop for Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA) course. But the thing is that windows laptop would be preferred over MacBook. Because you can smoothly run programs in Windows laptop with good configuration.

I would suggest you to have a laptop which has the configuration like minimum i5 processor, 8 GB ram or above, storage 1 TB and additional 256 GB storage. In mac laptops you can't find good configuration at less cost where as in case of windows laptop it is possible.

Try to use a laptop which has above mentioned configuration so that you can run programs easily. BCA students needs to execute many programs using some programming language applications which needs to be installed on laptop and requires more space.

If your MacBook has less storage capacity then chances are there that you get delayed or strucked while executing programs and more softwares you can't download if you use external hard disk also that is not much effective. With higher ram the applications can be handled smoothly. If you can manage all these things then you can with MacBook Pro.

Hope this helps you.

Thank you!!

Hi Aspirant,

Hope you are doing great as per the question asked by you both laptops have there own value in market but as a student you must certainly purchase windows laptop as they are more helpful as compared to MAC Book. While purchasing a laptop you must keep in mind that laptop must have good configuration some configuration that i would like to suggest are I5, above 8 generation minimum 4 gb ram 1 tb HDD and atleast 256 gb SSD.

Hope you found this answer useful.Stay motivated stay positive.

All the best!

Hello,

No, they will not give  laptop at admissions process. It must be purchased by your own, but if you require a concession or any sort of loan in such circumstances, they would gladly assist you.

Top choice for CSE students in 2021 is given below

• Lenovo Yoga C930 (Top Pick)
• HP Envy 6JU52UA.
• Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop (Editor's Choice)
• HP Pavilion Gaming 15-Inch Micro-EDGE Laptop.
• ASUS TUF Gaming F17.
• DELL 9310 XPS 2.
• Microsoft Surface Pro 6.
• MacBook Pro (13 Inch) (Premium Choice)

3 points to remember while buying a laptop

1. Get a solid-state drive(SSD). For additional space, you can ALWAYS purchase an everlasting HDD, but the speed of an SSD will assist a lot and is well worth it. Just don't buy anything without a solid-state drive (SSD). -
2. Choose the Ryzen 4000/5000 Series instead. Ryzen is well ahead of the curve, and may possibly be the best right now. However, is the less expensive alternative.
3. - Look for something with a reasonable number of ports and upgradeability. I know, carrying an adapter is "simple," but it's considerably more inconvenient, and if you forget it, your gadget may become completely unusable and upgradability, so you can increase RAM or storage later if your needs change, rather than simply getting the entry-level, low-cost model now.

Hope it helped

Thank you

See in the official website its clearly given that you need to have a laptop or PC as your primary device and a Android or any OS smartphone as your secondary device. So you have to collect a laptop or computer in any way. You can borrow a laptop or computer or you can visit a Computer Cafe or any rental service to use the computer for the exam.
