Everyone who is opting to do PG-DAC from CDAC, the main motive is the Placement and Knowledge, as there are many other private institutes but one cannot assure you Placement from this Private Institutes. Along with Placement, more important is the Knowledge you get during course, If one practices (practice) more, it's not harder to grab the Highest Package Job during Placement Activity (CCPP).
In this post, I will try to give you some tips so you can get more than what is in PG-DAC syllabus, considering you are from another background then Computer Science.
1. No matter with which module the course starts it may be CPP or AWP, always go through the Syllabus, and if you are from another background, google each new term you come across in syllabus and try to understand (Not in depth at the beginning). So it will enable you to understand better during the lecture.
2. After Lecture, that maybe during a 10 mins break in-between lectures, go to the front, even if you don't have any doubt to ask and keep on listening, as many students come to ask questions and this discussion can give a lot more than what teacher thought during a lecture on the same topic. This is more important during modules like ASDM (DevOps) as most of the time Teacher don't explain the in-dept internal working of certain architectures, but if you ask in person, the teacher will explain in a better way, and it's your advantage you get extra than what other students know.
3. Never consider this Course a Big-Boss Game and Other students as your competitors, if any of your colleague finding difficult to understand any module at beginning or any concept during module, help him/her understand in better language, it will be your advantage to look at same concept in another point of view, and develop a quality to think in different dimensions.
*During my batch, many students thought this as competitions (Even though they didn't show) and all of them are still unplaced.
4) Just Theoretical Knowledge and Understanding will not help, this course is all about Development, so one must do Practical Implementation, for these teachers gives the Assignment to complete during Lab, but most of the time not every question in Assignment covers every concept thought during the lecture. So always be hungry and try to implement it in one or other way, or search for optimised implementation on GeeksForGeeks or other source.
5) If you come across any new unheard fact, note it down.
6) While maintaining written notes that may be for Memory Management related concepts or related to Data Structure, or maybe a Flow of Data/Control in Program, always represent using Diagram it will help you understand in a much better way or revise during CCEE exam or during Interview.
7) During course, many students keep their assignment, or practised code on Google Drive or in Physical Storage. Remember we are going to be a Heroic Developer and in industry, there is common practice and a concept called Version Controlling. So create your GitHub Account and start pushing all your code in one place separated Module-Wise, Concept-Wise and as you wish in a better structure.
(Search GITHUB or Watch a Short Video Available on Youtube)
8) The most important part, thinking Interview point of view, that all companies (has Aptitude + Coding Round as First Round, and Many students are able to attempt Aptitude but 95% students skip Coding Round). For this one has to keep practising right from the beginning of PG-DAC course, and you might have heard web portals for practising code like HackerRank, HackerEarth, Leet Code, Code Forces and many other. Once the course starts with language-based modules like C++, JAVA, DSA, DB. Create your account on this and start solving code-based problems, even if not possible every day but on weekends, and keep an aim that you will try to solve max problems on Module Going on in class before it ends so you can ask doubts to the teacher the next day and discuss with your colleagues. I will suggest you start initially by practising concept-based problems on HackerRank and then move to HackerEarth to solve real-life based programming problems.
9) Once any module starts, find some better Online Resources like for Java (JavaTPoint), .NET (Guru99), AWP (W3School) and many others. And when the teaching faculty thought any concept in class, read the same on these resources also.
10) And more important, PG-DAC syllabus has not included some topics that I think should have been included, or it may be the case, each module is allocated with certain time duration to be completed by the faculty, so it may happen faculty skips the certain topic. I suggest you search for such topics and Learn from online resources like GeeksForGeeks.
11) Discuss every day with your friends, it will make you understand in a better way. Find students who are good in certain subjects or have the earlier experience, and build a good network.
P.S: Check back this article again later, I may add some more points.
I hope it will help you a lot during the course. Make sure if you have any doubt/question at any point of time during course, comment at this place.
