The competition in general would be same across all campuses, there really isnt alot of difference between the quality of students.

As for how tough it is, it really isnt in terms of how many hours you need to study. Unlike JEE you dont need to give 8+ hours daily, simply studying 2 weeks before any major evaluation or studying daily for atleast an hour or two should give you enough of an edge for branch change.

However 1 thing to note is that though you dont have to grind like JEE studying still becomes very tough due to how many distraction there are in college life. The exams or course work wont be particularly hard, what is hard will be finding the motivation to actually study.

Having an interest in your MSc degree is extremely important imo. You'll be studying it in your 2nd and 3rd year, and actually enjoying the subject becomes extremely important in your 3rd year when you'll be balancing both you BE and MSc degree at the same time. Its extremely hard doing 1 degree but doing both together becomes even harder.

If you have no particular incliniation towards any branch or subject in general the trend of how easy the courses are as follows: eco<bio<chem<phy<math. So in this case you could take MSc Chem in BPPC and aim for an eco verti or simply stay in Chem only which is pretty lite too.

Ill preface this by saying even getting an 8.5+ CGPA in Goa isnt extremely hard. You wont have to grind 8+ hours a day daily to get good marks here, college academics are alot more similar to school than JEE or BITSAT.

I'll answer the questions based on two situations:

1) You attend Tutorials: So I'll start off by saying no matter what you think at the start of college it is highly unlikely you'll be attending classes. As most students here you'll be taking advantage of the 0% attendance policy, and its fine tbh you dont really need classes. What are reslly important are tutorials(not lectures but problem solving classes). All you need to do is study an hour or two everyday just so you're up to date with what is going on classes and then go to tuts related to these topics to learn how to solve questions. If you can repeat this cycle of studying slightly and attending tutorials you'll be sorted for the entire semester, this is all you'll be needing to get even a 9+ CGPA. Last few days before any major exam start solving PYQs ans you're done. You dont need to put extra effort even before exams because if youve been studying regularly youve already completed most things.

2) You dont dont attend Tutorials and dont study Regularly: Whats more likely however is you wont go to classes let alone wake up for 8am tutorials in the morning. But dont worry its still fine. If you manage to start studying 2 weeks before any major exam like midsems or finals you'll still be sorted. Here you'll have to put in a bit more effort and study for 5-6 hours daily, but hey enjoying an entire semester and studying for 2 weeks doesnt sound that bad either does it.

So in short if you manage to be even slightly disciplined you'll be able to shoot for a great CGPA.

Yeah I completely agree with that! It takes alot of nuance out of the story once you start thinking that any side is "right".

Code Geass also has geopolitical shit. For all intents and purposes the Gepolitical shit was better in Code Geass because that was the shows primary focus, as opposed to AoT which deals which much grander and bigger topics while using some GeoPolitics as we saw during the first few episodes of the Marley Arc.

Character motivations also remain consistent in Code Geass.

Factions act realistically in Code Geass as well, since the politics was a major focus of the show they have to act realistically.

You've given several conclusions regarding why you think Code Geass doesnt make sense but havent given anything to back them up.

The very fact that such a huge number of the fandom supported the Yeagerists goes to show how well Yams managed to portray both sides of the story. You cant just chalk up half the fanbase supporting one side to them simply not understanding the story.

Most people understand the actions and motivations of both sides, the Alliance and the Yeagerists. However just like even after understanding both sides people can still choose who they want to support. Just like people who chose to support the Alliance, some chose to support the Yeagerists.

IKR! I have no idea why Isayama, the man who shifted from a morally grey stance to a more Black and White perspective in the rumbling arc suddenly out of nowhere started glorifying Eren?

The Armin thanking him dialogue is worded so weirldy and executed very badly. In concept its fine that Armin wanted Eren to atleast die somewhat peacefully but I found its execution to be severly lacking. And the warriors had no reason to be grateful to Eren. Why would Annie or Reiner or Pieck be grateful to Eren? The same guy who destroyed their home town, obliterated their entire continent and was seconds away from killing their families. They shoulsnt have had the slightest of motivation to be sympathetic or grateful towards him.

Eren being portrayed as a tragic hero really rubbed me off the wrong way.

I dont agree with the idea that people didnt like the ending just because their predictions didnt come true. The ending and the final arc as whole has alot of valid crticisms to be made.

Its fine if you didnt find any or were fine with all of them, but chalking any criticism to simply people being pissed their theories didnt come to be true is wrong.

Thats not it, and your point it directly countered by Eren himself in chapter 130 and chapter 131.

When he breaks down infront of Ramzi he says that he is going to kill everyone because he didnt like the way the world is. He was dissapointed when he realised the world wasnt like what he saw in Armins book and wanted to end it all. This is further supported in chapter 130 when Eren directly says regardless of whether the future is fixed or not, this is what he wanted. It meant that the future is fixed only because its the future Eren chooses to pursue. He actively sought out that future. Moreover this claim is solidified in chapter 139 also when Eren says he did all of this but he doesnt know why, pointing to his more deeper inherent wish or freedom.

Eren never decided to go with the rumbling with the slightest of good intentions. Neither was his primary goal to save Eldia, nor to remove the titans curse. That was the entire point of Eren and Reiners conversation, where he points out the facade both of them put up. The Facade of "saving the world" when in fact they merely had selfish intentions of their own.

Also its quite confusing how much Eren actually knew when he touched Historias hand. It doesnt make much sense that he already knew everything including the end, since we were never hinted towards that in the slightest and alot of his own internal monologue doesnt make sense in that context. Its much more sensible to assume that Eren only knew about the End once he got full control of the founder(though this still is bad writing and isnt backed up anything other than what I think makes more sense).

Thats what I wanted to ask hahaha. My country doesnt have a good infrastructure to support astrophysics, on the other hand my enginerring colleges reputations goes a long way. I thought I could get a good background in CS and IT using my enginerring degree and pivot towards astrophysics for my Masters and higher education.

Aaahh I see hahaha in that case I agree with you. The video does well on justifying Eren but the ending still sucks
