Hello Sir, Good morning. This is Suchithra Reguraj. My daughter is going to complete her Mtech in Robotics and AI this year. We have the confusion between going to job or doing PhD further. Could you guide us what are the scope in these two different tasks. Hope you reply soon. Thank you.
Ans: Suchitra Madam, For an M.Tech graduate in Robotics and AI, both industry roles and PhD pathways offer distinct advantages. Industry positions provide immediate entry into high-growth sectors like manufacturing, healthcare, and tech, with Robotics Engineers earning ?4.5–30 LPA and AI Engineers commanding ?5–50 LPA, depending on experience and specialization. Top firms like Amazon, Microsoft, and TCS recruit for roles in AI development, automation, and robotics R&D, emphasizing practical skills over advanced degrees for most positions. Industry work focuses on deploying scalable solutions, with faster project cycles and exposure to cutting-edge tools like AI-driven automation and computer vision. Conversely, a PhD enables deep research contributions in academia or corporate R&D, with opportunities to lead innovations in areas like reinforcement learning, autonomous systems, or human-robot interaction. PhD holders often secure senior roles (e.g., AI Architect, Research Scientist) with salaries up to ?26 LPA in India or global positions at labs like DeepMind, alongside academic careers averaging ?20.3 LPA for professors. However, academia demands postdoctoral experience for tenure-track roles and prioritizes publications over immediate applications. While only 15% of AI jobs require a PhD, it remains critical for research-heavy roles. Recommendation: If financial independence and hands-on tech impact are priorities, pursue industry roles now, leveraging the robust job market. If driven by research curiosity and long-term leadership in innovation, a PhD offers strategic depth, though it requires 3–5 years of commitment with delayed earnings. Balance immediate goals with passion for discovery to decide. All the BEST for your Daughter's Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello sir my son secured 93.65%ile which is 95132 CRL. Which nit, iiit and gfti can he get? Category is open general and home state is Maharashtra.
Ans: Manish Sir, Here is, How to Predict Your Son's Chances of Admission into NIT or IIIT or GFTI After JEE Main/Advanced Results – A Step-by-Step Guide

Providing precise admission chances for each student can be challenging. Here’s a simple yet effective 9-step method using JoSAA’s past-year opening and closing ranks. This approach gives you a fair estimate (though not 100% exact) of your admission chances based on the previous year’s data.

Step-by-Step Guide to Check Your Admission Chances Using JoSAA Data
Step 1: Collect Your Key Details
Before starting, note down the following details:

Your JEE Main percentile
Your category (General-Open, SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS, PwD categories)
Preferred institute types (NIT, IIIT, GFTI)
Preferred locations (or if you're open to any location in India)
List of at least 3 preferred academic programs (branches) as backups (instead of relying on just one option)
Step 2: Access JoSAA’s Official Opening & Closing Ranks
Go to Google and type: JoSAA Opening & Closing Ranks 2024
Click on the first search result (official JoSAA website).
You will land directly on JoSAA’s portal, where you can enter your details to check past-year cutoffs.
Step 3: Select the Round Number
JoSAA conducts five rounds of counseling.
For a safer estimate, choose Round 4, as most admissions are settled by this round.
Step 4: Choose the Institute Type
Select NIT, IIIT, or GFTI, depending on your preference.
If you are open to all types of institutes, check them one by one instead of selecting all at once.
Step 5: Select the Institute Name (Based on Location)
It is recommended to check institutes one by one, based on your preferred locations.
Avoid selecting ‘ALL’ at once, as it may create confusion.
Step 6: Select Your Preferred Academic Program (Branch)
Enter the branches you are interested in, one at a time, in your preferred order.
Step 7: Submit and Analyze Results
After selecting the relevant details, click the ‘SUBMIT’ button.
The system will display Opening & Closing Ranks of the selected institute and branch for different categories.
Step 8: Note Down the Opening & Closing Ranks
Maintain a notebook or diary to record the Opening & Closing Ranks for each institute and branch you are interested in.
This will serve as a quick reference during JoSAA counseling.
Step 9: Adjust Your Expectations on a Safer Side
Since Opening & Closing Ranks fluctuate slightly each year, always adjust the numbers for safety.
Example Calculation:
If the Opening & Closing Ranks for NIT Delhi | Mechanical Engineering | OPEN Category show 8622 & 26186 (for Home State), consider adjusting them to 8300 & 23000 (on a safer side).
If the Female Category rank is 34334 & 36212, adjust it to 31000 & 33000.
Follow this approach for Other State candidates and different categories.
Pro Tip: Adjust your expected rank slightly lower than the previous year's cutoffs for realistic expectations during JoSAA counseling.

Can This Method Be Used for JEE April & JEE Advanced?
Yes! You can repeat the same steps after your April JEE Main results to refine your admission possibilities.
You can also follow a similar process for JEE Advanced cutoffs when applying for IITs.

Have some other options also as back-ups instead of relying only on JEE/JoSAA.
