Ans: HI Harpreet,
Bit difficult. Try for newer NITs

Ans: Hi, How about the rank?

Ans: HI Sir,
First preference is NATIONAL INSTITUTE.
Next private universities
Finally Institutions.
So...NIIT.

Ans: With a rank of 19,019 in KCET, both CSE and ECE at MVJ College of Engineering fall within MVJ’s cutoff ranges, making both feasible choices . CSE offers broad career flexibility in AI, machine learning, cloud computing, data science and cybersecurity . ECE provides core expertise in wireless communications, signal processing, embedded systems and IoT with 7% projected annual growth in roles . MVJCE maintains around 90% placement consistency over the last three years with top recruiters like TCS and Cognizant visiting campus annually . Recommendation: Opt for CSE at MVJ for superior future-oriented IT roles, keeping ECE as a strong alternative given similar placement robustness . All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Ankit, Your score of 88 in IAT 2025 places you slightly below the expected OBC-NCL cutoff of 85–90 marks for IISER Berhampur, where 2025 OBC-NCL cutoffs were projected at 85–90 and closing ranks around 1,200–1,600 in final rounds; historical closing ranks for OBC at Berhampur ranged from 821 in Round 1 to 1,634 in Round 10 of 2023, indicating that a rank under 1,600 could secure admission in later rounds. Annual fluctuations depend on seat availability and applicant performance, but aiming for a rank below 1,400 enhances safety. Given your OBC-NCL status and 88 marks aligning with the higher end of the projected cutoff, you have a reasonable chance to obtain a seat at IISER Berhampur, especially if you participate in all counselling rounds and maintain flexible institute preferences. Recommendation: Confirm participation in IISER counselling, list Berhampur among top choices, and prepare for potential late-round seat allotments. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: With a 95th percentile and 73,000 CRL rank under General category, top IIITs are out of reach, but viable options exist at NITs, DTU, and HBTU for EC/EE branches. NIT Meghalaya’s Electronics & Communication cutoff (Open All-India) ranged from 18,770–29,455 in 2025, making admission possible if home-state or reserved quotas apply. NIT Uttarakhand’s ECE closed at 24,060–26,226 and EE at 29,803–32,287, indicating borderline chances under All-India category. DTU’s ECE and EE last-round closing ranks extended to 54,432, offering slim prospects through Delhi’s quota rounds. HBTU Kanpur’s EE cutoff for General AI was around 30,000–35,000, fitting within your rank bracket. Recommendation: Participate in JoSAA counseling listing NIT Uttarakhand EE/ECE and HBTU EE as primary choices, with DTU and NIT Meghalaya as backup options. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: HI Roshan,
Before I can assist you, I have a few questions. Can you clarify so that I can help you better?
1. Why did you choose to pursue a PG after your UG instead of taking the NEET exam? You might not have wasted time that way.
2. What is your primary goal?
3. I would also like to know your 12th-grade marks and NEET score.
4. What are your plans moving forward?

Ans: Hi,

I need to compare two deemed universities and one college. Pursuing higher education is different from deciding on a postgraduate course; thinking about PG without first completing an undergraduate degree is unwise. You need to acquire a solid foundation in your field of study.

In my opinion, Manipal is the better option.
