PEERS AND N-TIER TECHS

All the institutes are basically a waste of time. They will 
try to prove that they are the best, but all are just the 
same(useless). Some will train you exclusively for the 
interview, some for the project and that is it.
Out of 100 students(freshers) only maybe 10 will be able to 
do anything with what they have learned. Majority will take 
about 3-4 interviews to realize what are they supposed to 
know to work in a company. But the main problem is that 
what they teach is what they know(or good at). As a freaher 
you do not know what the subject consists of, so you will 
think what is taught is enough. But it isn't. The people 
who make it big in life are the ones who use their heads 
not the one who follow the crowd. How many people who pass 
from these places won't require further trainning in 
companies? 

Now if you want to learn (make a career out of it) .Net
you can :-
1)Join any place (peers/naresh/deccansoft)
2)Read MSDN(Microsoft Developer Network) Documentation.
  This is how faculty and others learnt it.
3)Do simple projects(complete applications) EVERYDAY on 
your own.This means asking the faculty/lab instructor to 
teach you how to debug and make setup projects on day one 
itself, so you get used to actually using the IDE.
 These projects should not only be what they tell you to do 
as homework but should be real software such as a simple 
notepad,simple database,simple webbrowser,simple media 
player etc. You can find tons of code on 
www.planetsourscecode.com and other websites.
4)Get a decent .Net boook and go through that days topics 
from that book to make sure that you don't losses out 
because the faculty missed something.
5)In the first two weeks you will feel step(3) very tough 
but it is the only way you will realize what is the kind of 
half baked knowledge they will leave you with.But stick to 
it.
6)Keep pestering the faculty/lab instructor to help you 
make your applications. They will say that it is very 
advanced and after a month they will help you but they are 
lying,they will never help you as they don't know how to.
7)If you stick to doing this for about a month you will 
automatically learn API(application programmers interface)
and will have a much better chance to crack the interview 
as you how to use what you have learned.
8)Use your lab hours constuctively and don't bunk clases.


Finally, you will realize that you get a job because of 
your hard work and not becaus of some institute.
These places are just for guidance, you are the one who has 
to put in the hardwork to get a job.
None of these places will offer to place freshers as they 
know companies will laugh at their students(majority of 
whome are lazy and expect to get a job because of just 
joining an institute). The institute is not important but 
what is important is your hardwork.

The 10 people who make it are the ones who use their heads 
and the other 90 just jump to some other institute. As you 
might heve noticed some of the posts on this forum are from 
people who have studied at many places and claim so and so 
is the best for basics and so and so for advanced. They 
took so much time to realize that they were just lazy and 
ignorant the first time.

No instuite is good.
