Does today’s entrance mock exam score affect eligibility for the final exam on 27th April, or is it purely for portal familiarisation and has no impact? For MS DSAI

IIT Madras BS Degree in Data Science and Applications
Hey everyone,
I was curious about the IIT Madras BS Degree in Data Science and Applications and wanted to get some real insights from people who are either pursuing it or have already completed it.
What’s the average placement package (CTC) for graduates of this program? Also, how does it compare to traditional B.Tech degrees from IITs or other top colleges?
If possible, could you also share:
- Highest and lowest packages you’ve seen
- Types of roles offered (Data Analyst, Data Scientist, etc.)
- Whether companies treat this degree at par with regular IIT degrees
Would really appreciate honest and up-to-date responses. Thanks in advance!
Avg of distribution for 40% of the grade . Redemption possible in remaining 50% (end sem).
Due to some non academic reasons couldn't do well and droppee around the avg of the class .
Subject wise I am fairly confident and assuming good performance in endsem (50%) what could be by most probable redemption grade.
Thank you 🙏
IIT Madras Spamming Mails but not communicating properly
I had applied for research at two departments at IIT Madras. I got selected for a written test/interview to all of them.
Recently I had been noticing the institution spamming mails like nothing. Only one of the departments sent me an interview date. Now I am not able to track and find out that exact mail, despite numerous efforts of starring them or saving them. There's an email almost everyday. Sometimes, they keep sending reply emails every other day, and there are 6 in a row. It's very difficult to track. I have more than one email from IIT Madras now, but NOT ONE that tells me the exact time, date and venue of interview. Today they sent me a broken link and asked me to check out the details of the interview there. Why can't they stick onto a minimal mail and communicate properly?
There will be one mail from the college today, one from the department tomorrow, one from someone else the next day and finally there will be a professor who sends mail on the 4th day, all sending google form links of the same google form. The part got confusing and self-doubting when there were multiple google forms that collected the same data, which I filled and submitted on time, but I got 5 to 6 mails from one dept alone to ask me to fill that again. 4 days after the last date, they sent another mail saying today is the last date please fill the google form. They said, please ignore if u have already filled the form, once.
The image attached should not be reused. This is probably the 15th email I am getting from them.
Is this institution just another junk of management or administration not knowing how to get things done, have no coordination and confuse students for their lack of ability to stay organized? I have had bad experiences from a national institution like that, so I am just concerned. Please let me know.

CS (AI) Minor at IIT Madras – Need Help
Hey everyone,
I’m currently studying at IIT Madras and thinking about taking a Minor in CS (AI), but I’m kinda confused about how it actually works.
Like:
- What’s the eligibility for taking this minor?
- Is it very hard to get into?
- Which courses do we need to take?
- Is it manageable with a non-CS core branch?
- How hectic does it get overall?
Also, if anyone here has already done or is doing a CS (AI) minor, would love to know your experience was it worth it? Did it help with internships or placements?
Any advice would really help. Thanks!
IIT Madras M.Tech CSE Interview Updates (International Applicants?)
Hey everyone,
I’m an international student who applied for M.Tech (CSE) at IIT Madras this year. According to the website, the departmental interviews were supposed to start from April 15, but I haven’t received any email or update regarding the interview yet.
Has anyone else (especially international applicants) received any communication about the interview? Or are others also waiting?
Would really appreciate if you could share your status. Thanks!
Professor really gave this as a midsem question paper 😭
