Help deciding to float or feeze

Help 🆘

I got IISER Bhopal in the second counselling round.

The next preferences are Kolkata and Pune(most probably not possible).

Most probably, I’ll land on Kolkata if I continue to further rounds.

Now which one would be better in terms of

  • faculty, especially in Physics.

  • campus quality and facilities.

  • lab quality.

  • overall academics.

  • crowd quality.

  • campus/city life, since I’ll have to live there for 4 years and it’s a long time.

I as of now am sorta leaned towards Bhopal because

  • it’s closer to me, in fact the closest IISER(maybe mohali will be equivalent if not less)

  • triple room sharing in Kolkata isn’t very attractive to me(sorta dumb reason ik).

So yea thanks in advanced.

And yea I apologise if my questions sound dumb.
