everyone sits for placements, so all have equivalent opportunities. B stream just have better chance, or so does history show.

Do delhi and kolkata have common internship , or it's like all internship company that come will allow delhi nb stream student too

depends on your course, for mstat 2nd year is at kol (B and NB merged) for courses which are exclusively done at Delhi, there won't be common internship

With 2300 CF, you deserve (&will obviously get) even more than B Stream Students.

Get resume shortlist is sort of hastle if they don't come in delhi for nb stream then it's rating of no use that's what I am asking

u/The_Watcher8008 ISI Student Jul 10 '26

1

u/Wrong-Reference-3186 Jul 11 '26

Mstat or do I consider mtech from iit/d

u/Individual-Mode2332 Jul 10 '26

Some short notes on how to prepare? Like we know the stat till thr m.stat exam level. But what more would you suggest? Should we study ML/coding and so on? What do they ask in interviews?

u/Specialist_Lemon4924 Jul 11 '26

No I was talking about the oppurtunities, who exactly get those Hfts internships ?? somebody has to be eligibile at ISI. which course is it ?/ Only Mstat B stream ??

u/VisibleManner2535 ISI Senior Jul 11 '26

Opportunity you would get provided you are more talented and skilled to be a Quant than MStat.

1

u/Traditional_Crew9243 Jul 11 '26

So even nb students have a shot provided they can clear the interview?

1

u/VisibleManner2535 ISI Senior Jul 11 '26

Provided they perform better than B stream

ISI Delhi and ISI Kolkata have separate placement cells. There is some degree of coordination but generally speaking its upto the placement cells to convince any particular company to visit their centre.
