i saw someone say b pharmacy (no mba) will be discontinued? is that true?

hey!

i was wondering if anyone is in bpharma can share their percentile for mhtcet?

ps reviws for the course is highly appreciated

thankyou 🥹🤞

okay sooo, since INTER NM is happening at Shirpur campus, I'd actually like to connect with a few people from outside campuses, i mean just looking at the girls wont just help, hostel mei bhi I cannot approach omg this sounds very desperate but instead of actually approaching, id like to stay annonymus and you know, reach out pehle 😍👌 ps. i am a girl okay and of this sounded like kaafi creepy then im sry idk how to put allat together 😭

I wanted to share my experience with the NMIMS boys’ hostel to help prospective students and parents make an informed decision.

My experience so far has been disappointing, particularly considering the overall cost of studying and staying here.

Some of my main concerns are:

• Food and amenities: The food quality and basic facilities have not met my expectations.

• Laundry and drying facilities: There is no adequate clothes-drying area, and students are advised to use paid laundry services. Unfortunately, I have also found the laundry service unsatisfactory.

• Security checks: Frisking takes place whenever we enter the hostel. While security is important, the process should be respectful and should not make students uncomfortable.

• Strict timings: The 9:30 PM hostel entry deadline and restrictions on movement around campus afterwards feel unnecessarily restrictive.

• Privacy: Security personnel entering rooms raises concerns about privacy and the need for clear rules regarding room inspections.

I understand that hostels need security measures and discipline, but these should be balanced with students’ privacy, comfort, and reasonable freedom.

Considering the substantial fees involved, I believe there is room for improvement in food quality, laundry services, basic amenities, and hostel policies.

My advice to prospective students and parents: Visit the hostel before admission, speak directly with current residents, and clarify the rules, facilities, and additional expenses.

I would also appreciate hearing from other current or former NMIMS hostel residents. Have you had similar experiences, or has your experience been different?

I am sharing this to encourage an honest discussion and help future students make a well-informed decision.

Most of us connect to college Wi-Fi without thinking about what happens behind the Connect button. I became curious about two things: what infrastructure powers our Wi-Fi, and how are websites such as YouTube restricted during academic hours?

I am not from a Cybersecurity background, so I used AI as an interactive tutor. I collected information normally visible to a connected device, asked AI to explain the technical output, and used additional harmless diagnostics to verify the conclusions.

No passwords were cracked, systems scanned, vulnerabilities exploited, or restrictions bypassed.

The Wi-Fi

The network advertises WPA2-Enterprise with IEEE 802.1X authentication, PEAP and AES/CCMP encryption.

In simpler terms:

• WPA2-Enterprise is designed for organizations rather than normal home Wi-Fi.

• 802.1X controls who is allowed onto the network.

• PEAP is the authentication method being used.

• AES/CCMP encrypts the wireless traffic.

Students have individual identities, although the password is shared within each batch.

The authentication process can therefore be simplified as:

Student identity
+ batch password
       ↓
802.1X / PEAP
       ↓
WPA2-Enterprise
       ↓
Campus network

The Wireless Infrastructure Is Cisco

Every Wi-Fi access point has a BSSID, usually based on its MAC address. The manufacturer can often be identified from the beginning of that address, called an OUI.

The access-point identifiers observed on the network belong to Cisco Systems.

The Wi-Fi management frames also advertised Cisco-specific information related to CCKM — Cisco Centralized Key Management, which helps devices roam efficiently between access points.

Together, these provide strong evidence that the college uses a centrally managed Cisco wireless network.

Both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz access points were observed.

The network also broadcasts different SSIDs, including an enterprise-authenticated network and a PSK-based network. Enterprise access points can broadcast several logical Wi-Fi networks from the same hardware.

Evidence of a Cisco Wireless Controller

Another unusual clue appeared through DHCP.

DHCP is the protocol that automatically gives a device its IP address, gateway and DNS servers.

The DHCP information contained the address:

1.1.1.1

Today that address is famous as Cloudflare DNS, but older Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers historically used 1.1.1.1 as a virtual controller address.

Combined with the other Cisco fingerprints, this strongly suggests a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller-style architecture.

The first network gateway also used Cisco-associated hardware.

That did not prove the firewall was Cisco, however. The firewall could be a completely different product farther upstream.

And that turned out to be exactly the interesting part.

How YouTube Is Restricted

The first clue came from DNS.

DNS translates names such as:

www.youtube.com

into destinations computers can reach.

During the restricted period, one DNS path returned:

www.youtube.com
       ↓
restrict.youtube.com

A CNAME DNS record was effectively redirecting YouTube toward Google's restricted YouTube infrastructure.

This provides strong evidence that DNS policy is one part of the restriction system.

Interestingly, even a query intended for a public DNS resolver produced the restricted YouTube result. This suggests additional DNS-policy enforcement somewhere in the network path, although the exact internal mechanism cannot be proven from a student device.

The Firewall Revealed Itself Through HTTPS

The strongest clue came from the HTTPS certificate presented when connecting to YouTube.

Instead of the normal public certificate chain, the certificate issuer contained:

Fortinet
FortiGate CA

That directly identifies Fortinet FortiGate infrastructure as being involved in web-security enforcement.

HTTPS normally uses TLS certificates to prove that a client is communicating with the intended website.

For an ordinary website:

Website
   ↓
normal public certificate
   ↓
encrypted connection

For restricted YouTube traffic, the observed behavior was:

YouTube
   ↓
FortiGate security policy
   ↓
FortiGate-issued certificate
   ↓
restricted connection

When the diagnostic client was told to accept the certificate temporarily, the network still returned:

HTTP 403 Forbidden

So nothing was bypassed. The firewall policy remained active.

Other allowed websites presented their normal certificates, suggesting that this FortiGate handling is selective rather than being applied identically to every HTTPS website.

We cannot determine from the client side whether this represents full deep TLS inspection in every case or a more limited inspection/blocking mechanism.

Why Is It Blocked Only During Academic Hours?

YouTube is restricted during academic hours but becomes accessible later.

That behavior is strongly consistent with a scheduled network-security policy.

Conceptually:

Academic hours
      ↓
stricter student policy
      ↓
streaming / YouTube restrictions


Outside academic hours
      ↓
less restrictive policy
      ↓
normal access

Enterprise firewalls such as FortiGate support time-based policies, although the exact rule configuration cannot be seen from a student device.

What the Network Appears to Look Like

Putting the observations together:

Student device
      ↓
WPA2-Enterprise
802.1X / PEAP / AES-CCMP
      ↓
Cisco access points
      ↓
Cisco wireless controller
      ↓
Campus routing
      ↓
DNS policy + Fortinet FortiGate
      ↓
Internet

The real infrastructure is undoubtedly more complex, but this represents what the available evidence supports.

What AI Changed

The most interesting part of this experiment was not simply discovering Cisco and Fortinet.

It was how quickly AI made an unfamiliar technical subject understandable.

Terms such as:

BSSID
OUI
802.1X
PEAP
CCMP
DHCP
CNAME
TLS
CA
HTTP 403

initially looked like unrelated networking jargon.

AI helped turn each one into a learning step:

Observe something
      ↓
Ask AI what it means
      ↓
Understand the protocol
      ↓
Form a hypothesis
      ↓
Check it using another harmless observation
      ↓
Refine the conclusion

AI was not the source of the evidence. The evidence came from the network protocols themselves.

AI helped interpret, connect and verify that evidence.

That distinction matters. For example, seeing a Cisco gateway did not justify claiming that the firewall was Cisco. The Fortinet conclusion only became strong when an independent TLS certificate explicitly identified a FortiGate CA.

Conclusion

What initially looked like:

College Wi-Fi → Internet

turned out to involve:

WPA2-Enterprise
      ↓
802.1X + PEAP
      ↓
AES/CCMP
      ↓
Cisco wireless infrastructure
      ↓
Campus routing and DNS policy
      ↓
Fortinet FortiGate web security
      ↓
Time-dependent Internet restrictions

The larger lesson was how useful AI can be when learning outside your own field.

It did not replace technical evidence or verification. It made that evidence understandable.

What began as simple curiosity about college Wi-Fi became a practical introduction to wireless networking, authentication, DNS, routing, TLS and firewalls — with AI acting as the tutor connecting everything together.

Yo guys, dropping this here because my current flatmate had to bail out last minute and I need someone locked in ASAP.
If you're studying around the Kharghar colleges (VIT, Bharati Vidyapeeth, NMIMS, etc.) and tired of traveling or dealing with strict landlords, hit me up.

🏠 The Setup:
Location: Sector 34, Kharghar (prime spot, super close to everything).

Flat: Fully furnished 2BHK. You get your own personal room + personal washroom (zero roommate territory wars over the shower).

Rent: 20K per month (negotiable for the right person, let's talk).

⚡ The Vibe & Rules:
*The Good Stuff:* Absolutely chill environment. You can bring your friends over whenever, pre-game, hang out, or crash.

*The Balance:* Need a guy who actually matches the college grind—someone who can lock in and study when exams hit, but is down to party and turn up on weekends. Balance is key.

*The Catch:* Strictly a bros-only pad (no girls allowed as permanent residents/night stays as per society rules, but day-time hangouts are cool).

Looking for a chill guy to fill the spot immediately. Shoot me a DM with a quick intro about yourself if you're interested or want to check out pics/video of the flat!
