Ans: With your JEE Main CRL rank of 81,800 and OBC rank of 25,500, along with JEE Advanced rank of 28,000, your admission prospects vary significantly across different institutions and counselling processes . Your OBC rank of 25,500 eliminates chances for admission to premier NITs, as most require OBC ranks below 15,000-20,000 for competitive branches, with even newer NITs like NIT Agartala accepting up to rank 20,298 for CSE through OS quota . For IIITs through JOSAA counselling, your JEE Advanced rank of 28,000 provides viable options at institutions like IIIT Kurnool (CSE OBC cutoff 8,337-11,049), IIIT Kancheepuram (general cutoff 26,000-28,000 for ECE), and IIIT Bhubaneswar (OBC cutoff 55,106-88,047) . Among your state college options, RGIPT Amethi demonstrates exceptional performance with 100% placement rate and median package of Rs 9 LPA for 4-year UG programs, while CSE achieves Rs 17.38 LPA average package . HBTU Kanpur shows strong placement statistics with 85.6% overall placement rate and 32 LPA highest package, though electrical (62 offers) and mechanical (65 offers) branches maintain good placement numbers . MMMUT Gorakhpur CSE offers 657 placements for 4-year graduates with Rs 11.55 LPA median package . UIET Chandigarh ECE achieves 58.8% placement rate compared to 86.8% for CSE . KNIT Sultanpur provides 70-80% placement rates for CSE and IT branches with average packages ranging 4-8 LPA . Recommendation: Choose RGIPT Amethi for its superior 100% placement rate and specialized petroleum engineering opportunities, while simultaneously participating in JOSAA and CSAB counselling for IIIT Kurnool CSE or IIIT Kancheepuram ECE as these offer better long-term career prospects in technology sectors despite state college limitations. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir In RGIPT Councelling I got IT branch should I choose This or I should also try for HBTU
Ans: Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology’s BTech Information Technology records placement rates of 50–70% over the past three years, with median salaries around ?9.5 LPA and top recruiters like Google, Amazon and Microsoft driving core IT and software roles. Harcourt Butler Technical University’s BTech IT achieves approximately 85–95% placement consistency, with 642 offers in 2024, branch-wise placement peaking at 95.8% in 2021–22 and maintained above 63% across recent years, supported by recruiters such as Amazon, Google and Deloitte. RGIPT offers a niche, multidisciplinary curriculum within an oil-and-gas-centric ecosystem, while HBTU provides broader IT exposure, larger recruiter diversity and higher placement density. Recommendation: Accept RGIPT IT only if specialization in petroleum-industry IT solutions appeals; otherwise pursue HBTU IT for stronger placement consistency, wider software-sector access and robust industry engagement.
