How to compare two colleges without fooling yourself

A comparison that starts with a photograph of a foyer is a comparison that will waste a counselling evening. The four lines that change the decision are the exam that actually allots the seat, the annual fee, the city you will live in, and the closing rank for the branch you want.

CampusKerala's compare desk lines those up for three colleges at a time. It will not tell you which campus has the better festival. The reviews are cohort notes from the desk, not a vote you should outsource your life to.

When two colleges tie on those four lines, visit if you can. If you cannot, read the campus paragraph and be honest about whether you want a hill, a hospital or a city bus ride.
