DCE/NSIT CEE 2008
I felt the paper was a bit easier than last year especially the physics part, although different people have different views and it is hard to compare CEE papers coz they are of easy level already.
I except the rank distribution to be along the same lines as last year with minor variation as is always there. But I expect the cutoff rank to go upto 1300 as there have been seats increase in IITs and also some other institutes. The cutoff last year was 1138.
I will quote the branch wise cutoffs of 2006 as they are most likely to be closer to 2008.
Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology (NSIT) : COE : 348 ECE : 348 IT : 551 ICE : 893 Biotech : 893
Delhi College of Engineering : COE : 522 ECE : 536 IT : 605 EE : 830 Mech : 890 Biotech : 1081 Civil : 1306
If you are interested in 2007 branch wise cutoffs then let me quote them also :
Netaji Subahsh Institute of Technology (NSIT) : COE : 267 ECE : 307 IT : 500 ICE : 821 MP : 909
Not too sure about DCE branch cutoffs for 2007.
The marks-ranks distribution for 2007 was :
The Common Entrance Exam(CEE) is held every year for admission to Delhi College of Engineering(DCE) and Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology(NSIT) is meant exclusively for students who belong to schools in National Capital Territory of Delhi.
The notification for admissions to NSIT/DCE through CEE was released a few days ago. You can have a look at the notification here.
The CEE 2008 exam will be held on 31st May 2008.
There is a reservation of 85% for Delhi Region and rest 15% will be filled through AIEEE ranks.
The forms will be available from 14th March 2008 to 16th April 2008.And the completed forms should reach the university by 16th April 2008 by 5.00 PM.
The forms will be available only at the two colleges ie. NSIT and DCE. The form costs Rs.400 and the payment should be made by Pay Order/Demand Draft.
Another step taken by DCE/NSIT is taking the admission online.You can now download the form online from DCE or NSIT website and then fill it and attach a Demand Draft of Rs. 400 and sent it via courier to the university.
You can also request the university to send you the form by sending a Pay Order or Demand Draft of Rs. 475 to the university.

Western Digital 250GB Passport Review
I am back again with another review, this time of Western Digital 250GB Passport External Hard Disk.
I had been thinking about buying an external hard disk from a long time due to lack of space on my HP DV6516TX laptop as it has only 160GB Hard Disk and my 2 mbps MTNL Triband broadband is quick to download loads of data in a single day.After researching a lot about external hard disks I zeroed in on this one mainly because of two reasons:
- It is a 2.5″ Hard drive and hence does not need external power
- It is one of the very few 2.5″ drives that come in 250GB capacity
Portability was one of the prime factors for choosing this drive and it lives up to that reputation and more as it weighs only 104 gms which is exceptionally light and can be carried around easily in pocket as it dimensions are also small.I bought the Glossy Black color to complement my laptop 
Some of the downsides include the outer surface is prone to oily fingerprints very easily thus making it hard to keep it shiny and also it develops scratches pretty easily.
The bundled package didn’t have anything much to say with just a USB cable being supplied along with the drive. it didnot even include a manual 
A soft copy of the manual is although available on the hard disk itself. The company didnot even care to give its customers a carry bag which is an absolute necessity for a portable product. Read the rest of this entry »
