Mod Post Reopening r/BTech – A New Chapter for Serious & Focused Discussions
Hey BTechtards,
I hope you’re all doing well! I’m reaching out to let you know that we’re reopening r/BTech. Over the past few months, BTechtards has been bustling with a lot of fun and humor, but we’ve noticed that the space for serious & focused academic discussions and technical queries has been a bit sparse.
While the shitposts and memes are always entertaining, we’ve realized there’s a significant need for a dedicated space where more focused and academic conversations can thrive.
r/BTech was born out of a need for a focused and supportive environment tailored to the unique challenges faced by engineering and BTech students. Initially part of BTechtards, the need for a dedicated space became clear as we saw a growing number of serious academic queries and discussions getting lost amid the memes and light-hearted content.
What Will Happen to BTechtards?
It’ll remain as is for the fun and casual side of engineering/BTech. Feel free to keep posting your discussions, shitposts, memes and resources here.

Serious My Google AI Pro trial is ending on 29 July
I've already used around 30 GB of storage. Can anyone suggest what I should do?
If I don't renew the subscription, will I lose access to my data, or will my Google account just go over the free 15 GB limit?
Has anyone been in the same situation? Any tips would be really appreciated.

Placements / Jobs Is campus placement actually more luck than skill?
Has anyone here seen people who barely know the technical stuff get placed, while people who are actually good technically keep getting rejected?
What do you think is the reason behind it?
Is it just interview skills, confidence, resume, being a better fit for the company, connections, or is there actually a huge luck factor involved in campus placements?
Just curious how common this is. Would love to hear what people who've been through placements think.

Serious People and future should not forget - Please help create a website to document all the videos and photos which are being published and are recorded by everyone of this student protest.
I was working on making a website so that all students, cjp supporters, bjp supporters, tv media etc can post and keep their recordings and statements alive through internet. I do not know much about web development because i am focused more on AI/ML, so after working for 2 days with glm 5.2 i could only create a simple website. Overthinking got me and i am now seeing through many possibilities.
So i want all of you people who are good in creating websites and can make it secure. I want to give this idea to everyone so that they can form a team and make such a website, as i think collaboration from top minds across all colleges maybe difficult through discord.
What i have thought of website should work like:
- A post from a person mobile should contain the date and time of uploading.
- What the person post is about is it about protest or another person like what were the famous people doing during this/that time.
- It will act as archive of all the protests documentation in a single place.
- It should include what was meadia post at the time, like what were the statements of popular media person as well as low level media person.
- It should not only have the ability to record the poplular figures statements but also of general public.
- Like i as a user should have the ability to post about my friends/relatives/teachers who are posting about protests either with the protest or against the protest. This will help us identify clearly what have a person have done publicly before. All these type of posts should have link attached to their post as well as in uploaded form of video on the website. A must is that these profiles must be public at the time of their side of uploading the stories or post.
- A way to tackle with ai slops, scams and other unwanted posts a person creates.
- It should work as a common ground for both type of posts that are with and against the students protest.
There are many more things which can be given a thought of, you may agree or disagree on many of my thoughts and ideas.
But i need everyone to help document this protest so that no one forgets what contribution has someone done.
If there is already such a platform then inform me and all the people on the ground to upload the photos and videos as a means to protect them and write the history.

Serious Seniors, if you could start btech again, which one would you prioritize in initial two years and why? MATHS + FUNDAMENTALS or CODING/DSA
Also how have things changed in the recent years. What advice would you like to give to someone joining tier 100 college this year.
How should one progress with 3rd year and so.

Serious The Harkirat Files
This post is based on my personal experience and conversations with other students. I'm sharing this so future students can make an informed decision.
1. False Marketing & Broken Promises
- We were promised Full Stack + DevOps in Semester 1 and Web3 in Semester 2.
- After two semesters, even the Full Stack curriculum wasn't completed.
- Many promises made during admissions were either delayed or never fulfilled.
2. Extremely Low Faculty Involvement
- Harkirat personally conducted only 20 classes in one semester and 18 in the next.
- Considering the fees charged, this works out to roughly ₹10,000 per class.
- Most teaching was delegated instead of being personally delivered.
3. Poor Quality of Teaching
- Several topics were rushed simply to finish the syllabus.
- Concepts were rarely covered in depth.
- One instructor mostly read directly from presentation slides and was unable to provide practical explanations or industry insights.
- Some TAs were inexperienced and often unhelpful.
4. Favoritism
- Referral opportunities appeared to be given repeatedly to a small group of preferred students.
- Students who questioned decisions often felt ignored or sidelined.
- Favoritism was also visible in hostel related decisions and TA interactions.
5. No Career Support / Poor ROI
- Students expected strong placement or referral support.
- Meanwhile, students from the Super 30 batch seemed to receive referrals among themselves.
- Most other students received little meaningful assistance in getting interviews or jobs.
6. Poor Management & Lack of Accountability
- Management rarely listened to student concerns.
- Rules were changed without prior notice whenever it benefited management.
- Fees were increased without proper communication.
- Staff frequently entered hostel rooms without informing students beforehand.
7. Students Were Penalized for Speaking Up
- Students who questioned management decisions were often targeted.
- Public shaming of students happened on multiple occasions.
- After the previous Reddit post and 1:1 meetings, some students who were skeptical about continuing were removed from the hostel the same day even though they had already paid the hostel fees of 10 more days.
- Instead of addressing criticism, management often blamed students.
8. Fee Refund Issues
- During admissions, students weren't informed that the campus would be relocated.
- After students saw the new campus (which is a converted girls' hostel rather than the promised campus), some requested refunds.
- Even though this was around a month before the semester started, they were reportedly offered only a 50% refund.
9. Hostel & Living Conditions
- Only around 7 toilets were available for over 100 students.
- Washrooms were frequently in poor condition.
- Students were forced to vacate hostels nearly two months before the semester officially ended, while some preferred students were allowed to stay.
10. Food Quality
- The mess food quality was consistently poor.
- Students reported insects, stones, rats, spoiled food, food poisoning, and diarrhea.
- Food frequently ran out before everyone had eaten.
- Students paid around ₹6,000/month, but we were told only ₹4,000 per student was actually allocated to the mess, resulting in poor quality and no second servings. But Harkirat himself earned 4 lakhs per month because of this.
11. Health & Safety Concerns
- Nearly 15 students reportedly suffered from dengue.
- Students repeatedly complained about mosquito problems, but little action was taken.
- There were also complaints about alcohol and marijuana use on campus, which students felt management ignored despite reports.
12. Poor Campus Culture
- Students who questioned management often became targets.
- Decision making felt arbitrary rather than transparent.
- Management presented itself as student-friendly but rarely acted on student feedback.
13. Questionable Hostel Priorities
- Students from MIT Kerala were accommodated while existing students were asked to leave.
- Requests to continue staying were denied, with management describing it as doing students a "favor."
14. Unprofessional Incidents
- During Harkirat's birthday and the Super 30 farewell, students alleged that money was spent on celebrations for one group while other student concerns remained unresolved.
- Some TAs allegedly became intoxicated and created disturbances on campus, including one incident where a TA reportedly urinated from the rooftop.
One Positive :
The only consistently positive aspect was the DSA course.
- Around 65 DSA classes were conducted.
- The instructor was regular, knowledgeable, and supportive.
- Many students felt this was the only reason they continued with the program.
I'm posting this so prospective students can hear experiences that weren't part of the marketing. If anyone else from the batch has had a different experience, feel free to share it respectfully.
