    ingestion capacity. It includes classroom, administrative building, workshop, computer labs, various laboratories and

    canteen etc. Since for the period of your four-year of graduation you would require all these belongings.

    without a tutor. At all times have a glance on college talent which include professors, reader, lecturers, teacher-student

    ratio, visiting faculty, ambiance, discipline, teaching experience and previous colleges result rank etc.

    seminars, workshops, industrial training, social activities, NCC, NSS etc.

    1) Assess your interests & Abilities

    2) List courses & suitable colleges matching your interests

    3) Sort them based on criteria:i) Facilities

    ii) Tuition Fee

    iii) Exposure

    4) Explore and evaluate the filtered results.

    5) Implement

    1) Assess:

    What most of us do not understand is that the course currently not so in demand in terms of job

    openings, might not be the same by the time you complete the course. Here is where foresight

    comes into play. Analyze how the market would be, four years down the road than jumping to

    conclusions. Another mighty reason to choose a particular course should be your passion, and not

    because someone else was successful in that field. Mostly, it is the path less taken that might lead

    to great treasure.

    2) Narrow down:

    People fall for this illusion that the prestige of the college will get them a job in the clouds. For a

    fact, the reputation of a college can only create more opportunities through campus interviews. It

    means that you can concentrate more on getting through these interviews than having to look for

    them. Recruiting companies too give these colleges priority, which adds to the advantage.

    3) Sort them based on criteria:

    i) Facilities:

    Academics alone being of high standards, but physical and basic requirements not being up to the

    mark is of little value. This includes lab and equipment, playground, library and reference

    resources, internet, the quality of food, accommodation, sanitary and other health factors for

    residents. We live in a world that is highly aroused by the impact of media, and it becomes

    essential to look into the health of both, body and soul. Availability of sports and other recreation

    is mandatory to divert the stress productively.

    ii) Tuition fee:

    Most of the time, the famous college and highly demanded courses can be very hard on your

    budget. Some others re-order the priorities with the fees topping the rest. It is always good to lookfor the best you can get for what you can afford. Spending way beyond your capacity to get

    admitted to any college would be a pointless exercise because the opportunities can be created

    even otherwise.

    iii) Exposure:

    Though exposure and facilities go hand in hand, they are controversial at the same time too. The

    locality of the college influences many into choosing it. In reality, there are equal distractions as

    there is positive exposure. Getting along with others and cultivating a people managing capability

    can go a long way than education alone. Attitude is molded here, and that is what most employers

    are looking for, primarily, in a candidate. If that is set to the right note, rest can be acquiredwithout much pain.

    4) Explore and evaluate:

    People fall for this illusion that the prestige of the college will get them a job in the skies. For a

    fact, the reputation of a college can only create more opportunities through campus interviews.

    Getting through the interview solely depends on how well you carry out yourself. So, if you have to

    miss out on a branded, five-star rated college due to some reason, dont worry too much about it.

    You can do just as well without it. Focus on getting the most out of what you can afford, and with

    a touch of right attitude and perseverance, all will be well.

    5) Implement:

    In all the counseling wow that is under way, it is very easy to get lost. Keep in mind that no

    college will satisfy you in all ways. It is the impact of the shortfalls that matter most. You might

    have to compromise on certain aspects, which is natural, but it shouldnt come down hard on you

    in the long run. To be focused on your decision, one of the best things to do would be to visit the

    college in person. Speak to the students there and get to know what it is really like. Dont be too

    surprised if the website is nowhere near reality. After all, college websites and brochures are

    mainly for promoting the brighter side. At the end of the day, what real time experience you gain

    matters way more than what you hear (and barely remember) in the sophisticated classrooms.

    The priorities might not be the same for all, but how you approach each of the above factors

    remains the same. However your vision might be, dont be a football of others opinions.
