Question by Shyam - Jul 13, 2026

My daughter get rank in Aiims Nursing & IISER which will better for her carier early groth.

Ans: Shyam Sir, AIIMS B.Sc. Nursing is the better choice if your daughter's priorities are early career growth, financial stability, and job security. She can secure a well-paying government or private hospital role soon after graduation (often via NORCET—Nursing Officer Recruitment Common Eligibility Test), with strong opportunities in India and abroad. IISER is ideal only if she is passionate about scientific research, academia, or pursuing a Ph.D., where long-term growth can be exceptional but usually comes after higher studies and a longer career timeline. It is better to prefer AIIMS-Nursing over IISER. All The Best for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

The previous year cutoff for IAT for OBC NCL is 4700 this jumped from 2,600(2024 cutoff for OBC NCL) due to increase of 100 seats in IAT. But this year they reduced the seat in IAT (reduced by 20 seats) but they increased in IIT , IIIT, GFTI, NIT drastically upto 4700 seats which is massive so is there a chance I could get this year.

If your alternatives are average engineering colleges, and you genuinely enjoy mathematics and are open to higher studies or data-centric careers, then BS-MS Mathematics & Computing is a worthwhile option. Finally, if you do not have options for CSE, then go with MnC @ BIT Patna

Asked by Anonymous - Jul 11, 2026

I have scored 95.12 percentile in MHT CET and have got provisional admission in Manipal University Jaipur CSE branch . I am outside Maharashtra resident. Can I get a better college in Maharashtra Counselling? Based on past cutoff I may able to get KJ Somaiya college of engineering Mumbai AI & DS branch . Which college I should choose out of the above two MUJ or KJ Somaiya ?

Ans: As an OMS candidate, getting top government colleges like COEP, VJTI, or ICT in CSE/AI is unlikely. However, K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering is a realistic and strong possibility if the cutoff remains similar. Do not withdraw your MUJ admission until you have actually received and confirmed your admission through Maharashtra CAP. Treat MUJ as your secure backup while participating in counselling.

Sir my percentile is 89.425 in open category i m outside maharashtra candidate, what can i get in mht cet counselling?

Ans: Hope the score mentioned is from JEE (Main), as it is the only one considered for CAP admissions, not your MHT-CET score. OMS candidates compete for All India seats based on JEE Main scores. You can target government colleges for Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, and other lower-demand branches. For CSE/IT/ECE, good private colleges are an option. It is not possible for us to provide a probable college list at this moment. But you can surely get admission to a decent private college. Just decide the city and choose the preferred colleges with preferred branches.

Ans: Report to VIT Chennai and secure your CSE seat. With a 99.8 percentile in MHT-CET (Open, Maharashtra), you have an excellent chance of getting top state colleges like COEP, VJTI, SPIT, and PICT through CAP, but counseling is delayed. Retaining VIT minimizes risk. If you later receive a preferred CAP allotment, withdraw from VIT within the refund timeline to maximize fee recovery. All The Best for Your Prosperous Future!

But sir the 4th round will probably happen after 20th but according to aicte guidelines I won't be eligible for any kind of refund from NMIMS INDORE Also are these equal and what are the branches that I will surely secure

Ans: If losing the NMIMS fee is a major concern, do not withdraw from NMIMS before the refund deadline, i.e., wait until July 20. If after that you are allotted CSE at MUJ, you can opt for it at the risk of losing a major portion of the fee paid to NMIMS. If you are financially strong, you can take the risk of MUJ admission; else, continue with NMIMS with CE. NMIMS Indore is a decent Tier-3 private engineering college with good academics but average placements, making it a reasonable backup but not on par with MUJ CSE overall. MUJ CSE at 36.2k rank is uncertain, and if MUJ is not allotted, you could end up without either option.

Where i should take admission for B tech, either in JIIT noida sec 128 or MITS GWALIOR FOR BETTER PLACEMENT

Ans: Prefer Jaypee Institute of Information Technology (JIIT) over Madhav Institute of Technology and Science (MITS) for better placements. JIIT attracts significantly more recruiters, with 90%+ eligible for B.Tech placements in 2025, higher average and median packages, and advantages from its NCR location, stronger industry connections, and a superior brand among recruiters. While MITS is a good institute, it generally lags behind JIIT in placement opportunities and salary outcomes. All The Best for Your Prosperous Future!

I want to decide which of these to choose, knowing that MIT Manipal offers more exposure and hands on projects etc. I will be a day scholar in both places. I am looking for your perspectives on selecting the right college.

Ans: You can prefer MIT Manipal CSE or ECE as it offers more exposure to hands-on projects, which you rightly noted. Do some research on its non-academic factors as well before deciding. Keep PES EC CSE and other 2-3 colleges like MSRIT and BMSCE as backup options. During the KCET counseling process, fill in the maximum number of choices, starting with the top colleges in Karnataka.

Question by Bhavin - Jun 08, 2026

Dear Mam, My son is studying in 12th Sciences B group, in study he is average. Which course and abroad country is best and safe for nursing course as well as pharmacy. Also suggest best abroad course other than above.

Ans: HI BHAVIN,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!
The B group means without Maths, correct? If so, my suggestion is that if you want to pursue an undergraduate degree in Pharmacy or Nursing, it's better to study in India rather than going abroad.

Why do I say this? For example, many students prefer to study Medicine abroad, but they face numerous challenges when it comes to completing the screening exams. Only about 10% of the students manage to pass their screening exams. To clear these exams, they incur costs for coaching fees, exam fees, accommodation, and food. Most cannot pass on their first attempt; they must study 19 subjects for a single exam day. Within that one day, they need to recall all the subjects and provide answers. Additionally, the exam pattern changes every six months (as it has for the past two years). Students do not receive model question papers or mock tests from the authorities, nor can they verify their papers, as answer keys are not released like in other competitive tests. These are the problems faced by hundreds of thousands of graduates.

I've explained the challenges of the medical screening exam to highlight that similar issues are likely to arise in the pharmacy field as well. Significant educational reforms are being introduced, so it's better to pursue the course in India.

As for Nursing, India offers better opportunities compared to other countries due to the abundance of patients available for learning and growth. In contrast, such exposure is difficult to find abroad. When selecting an institution, opt for government institutions or those with a hospital capacity of over 200 beds to ensure a quality learning experience. Otherwise, institutions may send students to smaller hospitals where they are utilized as labor rather than as learners. Therefore, be cautious when choosing an institution.

After completing your undergraduate degree, you can consider going abroad. However, it’s crucial to choose the institute yourself rather than going through agents. Make sure to select a postgraduate program that aligns with your undergraduate studies, and avoid enrolling in unrelated courses. Many students find themselves trapped in such situations, suffering under the guise of studying abroad. There are also instances where students are misled in the name of obtaining a green card or citizenship. Additionally, in foreign countries, there are often separate classes for Indian students, creating an environment that feels like “another Indian college in a foreign setting.”

So, let him try to enroll in a good institution (regardless of NIRF rankings). Choose the best institution based on your domicile. If you want more detailed suggestions, please share your domicile so I can recommend colleges for pursuing undergraduate studies in Pharmacy or Nursing.

BEST WISHES.

Hello Sir, My daughter wrote AEEE, Telangana CET. She secured 5048 in Amrita and 10488 in TGEAPCET. She is nonlocal at both states. She secured AI and DS Medical engineering in 3rd slab at Amrita coimbatore campus and CBIT Mech in Mock round of Telangana state. Can you please suggest what to choose.

Ans: Please advise your daughter to first decide which branch she is more interested in, followed by a backup second option. Between the two available, she should prefer Amrita Coimbatore – B.Tech AI & Data Science (Medical Engineering), which is the better overall choice due to its strong academic reputation, national-level peer group, multidisciplinary AI curriculum, excellent placements (92% placement rate, Rs. 9.08 LPA average), and better long-term opportunities in AI, healthcare, and higher studies. She should choose CBIT Hyderabad – Mechanical Engineering only if she has a genuine interest in Mechanical Engineering or prefers to stay in Telangana, as the branch prospects are comparatively less attractive than AI & Data Science.

Considering your parameters, though none fully meet all criteria, the preference order could be: 1) IIIT-B CSE (higher fees, choose only if affordable), 2) NIT-W MnC, 3) NIT-W ECE, 4) BITS-H ECE (fee affordability important), and 5) IIT-P ECE (consider this as the first option instead of IIIT-B CSE if Patna location is suitable and IIIT-B CSE fees are not affordable). Since your son has no branch preference, it’s advisable for him to review the basic curriculum of these branches and decide based on his interests, comfort, and the types of problems he wants to solve. I often emphasize on RediffGURU that choosing the right/most suitable branch for the child is more important than the institution itself. All The Best for Your Prosperous Future!

Question by Nishi - Jul 09, 2026

Sir I m getting CSE in UIET kurukashetra and Electrical with computer engg in Thapar. At later stage possibelity of getting COE in thapar ,which should. I Choose

Ans: Nishi, prefer Thapar Electrical & Computer Engineering (ideally if upgraded to COE), followed by UIET-K-CSE. Choose Thapar if the fees are affordable, as it offers a stronger brand, better industry exposure, a larger recruiter base, excellent internships, and an official first-year branch upgrade policy (based on high CGPA and seat availability). If the COE upgrade doesn't happen and cost is a concern, UIET CSE offers excellent ROI. All The Best for Your Prosperous Future!

Which is better COMPUTER ENGENEERING from NMIMS INDORE or ECE from MANIPAL UNIVERSITY JAIPUR

Ans: Both are good choices, but MUJ-ECE is preferable over NMIMS-I-CE. MUJ offers a stronger engineering ecosystem, better industry connections, a larger recruiter base, superior infrastructure, and a stronger placement record. The ECE program covers core electronics like VLSI, semiconductors, and embedded systems, along with many software roles, providing more long-term flexibility than NMIMS Indore’s newer Computer Engineering program.

Question by Darklord - Jul 09, 2026

Sir, I am a 12th-grade pass-out from Maharashtra HSC Board (PCB stream). I am planning to pursue B.Tech and need to complete my PCM group. I have decided to appear for Mathematics as an 'Isolated/Additional Subject' through the MSBSHSE board in the February 2027 cycle. I have two specific concerns: Will having two separate marksheets (one for PCB and one for the Isolated Maths subject) cause any issues during document verification for MHT-CET CAP rounds or JoSAA counseling? Is this the recommended path for a student in my position to ensure full eligibility for engineering admissions in Maharashtra? Requesting your expert guidance on whether this 'Isolated' route is recognized and accepted without complications for B.Tech admissions.

Ans: MSBSHSE Isolated/Additional Mathematics is generally accepted, and both marksheets are used together during verification without issues, provided you meet the eligibility rules in effect at the time of admission.

Good luck.

Ans: Haan, pravesh saamanya roop se sambhav hai. Aapke pita ke naam mein antar hone se pravesh apne aap radd nahin hota, lekin dastaavezon ki jaanch ke samay samasya aa sakti hai. Kisi vakil se salaah lein aur shapath patra banwa kar rakhein, jismein likha ho ki dono naam ek hi vyakti ke hain. Yadi sambhav ho, to sambandhit shiksha mandal ya vishvavidyalay mein jald se jald naam sudhaar ke liye aavedan karein. Aapke safal bhavishya ke liye dher saari shubhkaamnayein!

Hello Sir I got 94.5 %ile in MH CET but also got compartment in class 12th cbse chemistry subject. The compartment exam is on 28 July 2026 but the registration of CET has started. I also registered but in class 12th details they ask pass or fail/compartment, when i choose fail/compartment option at the end of the form during payment they say u r not eligible for admission. my question is what should i do now and do cet cell open another window for cbse compartment candidates once compartment result is announced? Also I got 77 %ile in jee mains if that helps

Ans: Based on the current 2026 CAP schedule, candidates must be Class 12 passed to complete MHT CET CAP registration. If you truthfully select "Fail/Compartment", the portal correctly marks you ineligible. As of now, the CET Cell has not announced any special CAP registration window for CBSE compartment candidates after supplementary results. Your best course is to immediately email and call the CET Cell, continue preparing for the July 28 compartment exam, and monitor official notices daily. Your 94.5 percentile in MHT CET is excellent and 77 percentile in JEE Main can also help in private or other counselling processes if required. Have 2-3 backups too. All The Best for Your Prosperous Future!

Sir, I am getting car in kiit bhuvaneshwar , g l bajaj and iss noida .In which I should opt?

Ans: KIIT is the best overall choice due to its national reputation, stronger alumni network, excellent infrastructure, research ecosystem, diverse recruiters, and better campus exposure. GL Bajaj is a good second choice for placements in NCR but has a stricter academic environment. IILM ranks third because of comparatively lower industry reach and placement depth.

Sir , heis being offered entc at both the colleges?

Ans: If your child's clear goal is Core ECE/VLSI, choose Symbiosis Institute of Technology (SIT), Pune. Pune offers a strong electronics ecosystem, valuable internships, industry interactions, and lower living costs. Although KIIT has a larger engineering ecosystem, for a Pune-based family focused on VLSI, SIT provides better location advantages and networking opportunities.

Question by parul - Jul 09, 2026

My son is getting mechatronics in thapar and ece in jaypee.which one is better option

Ans: Parul Madam, Choose ECE at Jaypee Institute of Information Technology over Mechatronics at Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology. ECE offers broader career opportunities across semiconductors, VLSI, embedded systems, telecommunications, IT/software, and higher studies. Mechatronics is an emerging but comparatively niche branch with fewer core recruiters. Unless your son has a strong passion for robotics and industrial automation, Jaypee ECE provides better long-term flexibility, stronger ROI, and wider employability. All The Best for Your Son's Prosperous Future!
