Which interdisciplinary course with technical elements is good for humanities student post xii, pls suggest
Ans: Great question — many interdisciplinary options blend technical skills with a humanities background today. Some top choices include:
Bachelor of Design (B.Des) in Communication, UI/UX, or Product Design – combines creativity with tech
Liberal Arts with Data Science/Economics minor – offered by Ashoka, FLAME, or Symbiosis
B.A. in Media & Communication with Digital Marketing/Analytics focus
BSc Cognitive Science or Psychology with AI/Neuroscience modules – some IITs and IIITs offer this
Bachelors in Social Data Science – available in a few new-age universities
The key is to look for programs that offer flexibility with electives so students can explore both tech and social sciences.

I have applied in pmsss scholarship for jadavpur university and anna university and other south colleges is there any language barrier during studies I am form jammu and kashmir
Ans: Your concern is valid, but most top South Indian universities, including Jadavpur and Anna University, teach core courses in English. You may find Tamil, Bengali, or other local languages used casually among peers or during non-academic communication, but it’s not a barrier to learning or scoring well.
Moreover, PMSSS scholars from J&K have successfully studied in these institutions for years — many universities also have north Indian student communities, making the transition smoother. Encourage your child to participate in college societies to build comfort socially and improve communication skills.

My son got a score of 256 in BITSAT and has got Pilani Mechanical. What are his chances of getting a circuital branch in the next iterations? He is joining VIT CSE CAT 1 this week. Do you recommend he continues there?
Ans: A BITSAT score of 256 is commendable, and based on past trends, chances of upgrading to circuital branches (like EEE or possibly ECE) in further rounds exist, but CSE at Pilani is usually well above 320. He may possibly get ENI (Instrumentation) if cut-offs dip slightly, but it’s not guaranteed.
Comparing BITS Pilani Mechanical vs VIT CSE (Category 1):
If his long-term goal is core engineering or management, BITS Pilani’s brand and alumni network are unmatched.
If he is keen on coding, software development, or tech startups, then VIT CSE (Cat 1) offers more relevant exposure from Day 1.
Recommendation: Since BITS Pilani has far better reputation and placements overall, I would advise to join BITS Mechanical, and he can build CS skills through projects, coding contests, and online courses. Many top tech firms hire from all branches at BITS.
He can also explore dual degrees or branch sliding at BITS after 1st year depending on his academic performance.

Hello, my daughter is currently in 12th PCMB(biotechnology).She wants to pursue Bsc.economics ,math n stats or datascience math/stats. In christ university. Which ia better option for job opportunities and can she do Bsc eco /math/stats and do data science as a separate course.
Thank you
Ans: Given your daughter’s academic background in PCMB and her interest in analytical fields, BSc Data Science with Math/Stats may provide more direct industry-relevant skills and job prospects in the growing tech, finance, and analytics sectors.
However, if she’s more inclined toward understanding how markets function, policy-making, and socioeconomic modeling, BSc Economics (with Math & Stats) is an excellent foundation, especially if paired with future studies like an MSc in Data Science or Business Analytics.
To answer your second part — yes, she can absolutely pursue BSc in Economics or Math/Stats and take up Data Science through online certifications (like Coursera, edX, or even postgrad diplomas later).* Many employers value demonstrated skill more than the degree title, provided she builds a strong project portfolio alongside.

My son secured 95% in cbse board class 12. He is eligible for fully funded scholarship to pursue his bachelors in hongkong. But we won't be able to continue his masters abroad due to financial constraints. Should we send him abroad only for bachelors. Is it a wise decision.
Ans: If your son has secured a fully funded scholarship, I strongly recommend accepting it. HK universities like HKU, HKUST, CUHK are globally ranked.
Even if you can't fund a Master's abroad later, he can:
Work for 1–2 years in HK (they offer work visas)
Apply for funded Master’s based on UG grades and research
This is a golden opportunity—don’t let finances block it.

Ans: Shiv Nadar University offers a BS Research, ideal if your daughter is research-focused or wants to pursue a PhD abroad later. It is also NAAC A++, with better infrastructure.
Mahindra University’s B.Tech is more applied and could be slightly better if she's industry-focused.
Since you're from Hyderabad and travel/cost is a concern, Mahindra offers logistical ease, but academically Shiv Nadar is stronger.

Hello Sir, I have a very big dilemma whether I should choose CSE or AIML. For me, I am someone who likes logic and not mugging up things. And I like to apply with understanding instead of just mugging up and learning stuff. And I also don't have much love for statistics or probability and stuff. So, can you please tell me which course is the best for me? AIML or Computer Science Engineering? And also, can you tell me about the job opportunities and placement opportunities in both?And also tell me sir, I have few colleges as my options, BMS-IT and Sir MVIT and JSS-ATE and RNS-IT. But for my KCET cut-offs, I can make it into BMS-IT and Sir M-VIT easily. So tell me which one of these is the best for me. And in these two colleges, what course should I choose, AIML or Computer Science?
Ans: Based on what you said—you enjoy logic and understanding concepts, but not statistics or probability—Computer Science Engineering (CSE) is the better fit. AIML is heavily statistics- and data-driven, and while it sounds modern, it can feel like a burden if you dislike those areas.
CSE gives you a broader foundation—you can specialize later in AI, Cybersecurity, Software Dev, or Systems Engineering.
Regarding placements, both AIML and CSE have good job prospects, but CSE offers more variety and volume of roles (software developer, backend engineer, cloud engineer, etc.), especially from core tech companies.
Both are decent colleges under VTU, but BMSIT has a better placement track record, is closer to the tech hubs, and offers stronger alumni support.
Between CSE and AIML at BMSIT, go for CSE—it is a safer, broader, and more flexible course for future growth.

Our child is studying B.Tech in Metallurgy at NIT Trichy and wants to pursue a Master's in Applied Physics abroad (Germany or the US).
We want to know what additional courses are needed to make this transition possible.
Should they study subjects like quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, or advanced math?
Are online certifications (like NPTEL, Coursera) accepted by universities to meet prerequisites?
Please guide us so we can support our child in planning their academic path.
Ans: To transition from Metallurgy to Applied Physics, your child must strengthen their foundation in core physics subjects like quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, classical mechanics, and advanced mathematics (calculus, linear algebra, differential equations).
Universities, especially in the US and Germany, look for relevant coursework—online certifications (Coursera, edX, NPTEL) do help show interest, but they do not always count as formal prerequisites. I suggest your child also audit or take electives in these subjects at NIT Trichy.
For Germany, ensure they complete at least 4 semesters of core physics/math courses. For the US, prepare for the GRE Physics (if required) and maintain a strong SOP + LOR combination.
Support them in building research projects or internships tied to physics if possible.

You'll graduate with a degree from an Australian university, opening up PR and job opportunities in Australia. Yes, it is expensive, but if you can afford it or arrange funding, it’s one of the best pathways for students wanting global tech exposure.

Hello Karan I'm a first-generation college graduate from Chennai. My GRE score is low (310), but I have strong academics and extracurricular profile. I have won multiple chess and badminton tournaments at the district and state level in my school and college. If I get into a mid-tier US university, will my GRE score affect my chances of landing OPT jobs or later transitioning to an H1B?
Ans: A GRE of 310 is acceptable for many mid-tier US universities. GRE scores do not impact OPT or H1B job chances. Employers look at your skills, internships, projects, and communication. Your strong sports background shows leadership and discipline—mention it in your SOP. Focus on building skills in your field (data science, software, etc.), and aim for internships during your MS.

Germany: Requires B1/B2 German, but low tuition and good post-MBBS opportunities
Australia & New Zealand: AMC pathway, slightly longer and costlier
Canada: Competitive, needs strong credentials and clearing MCCQE
For middle-income families, UK and Germany are more accessible due to shorter paths and relatively lower costs (especially Germany where education is nearly free after the language barrier is crossed).

Ans: MBBS in Vietnam is a growing option, but I would advise caution. The medium of instruction may not always be English, and international recognition of Vietnamese medical degrees (especially for licensing exams like the USMLE, PLAB, or FMGE in India) can be an issue. If you're a middle-income family and cannot secure a government MBBS seat in India, consider countries like Russia, Georgia, or the Philippines where English-medium medical education is more streamlined for foreign students. However, always verify MCI/NMC recognition and look at the FMGE pass rates of students from that country before making a decision.

My son getting csc AI ml plus robotic in VIt AP in cat 4,csc in Manipal Jaipur, Csc in LPU
We are in Jalandhar what should we opt
Ans: Among these, Manipal Jaipur has a better legacy and a stronger alumni network. VIT-AP is new and has limited placements currently in emerging fields like AI/ML. LPU has infrastructure but is relatively weaker in industry placements. If cost is not the primary concern, go for Manipal Jaipur. If you’re getting a significant scholarship at VIT-AP and are willing to work hard on your own (projects, internships), that can still be a viable option. Placements ultimately depend on skills, not just brand.

1 month back I got interview call letter from iit madras for MS in computational engineering (which comprises of subjects from maths and computer science) in the interview they asked questions from maths and DSA but unfortunately i wasnt able to clear the interview and now i got admission in mtech ocean engineering and naval architecture from iit kharagpur. My doubt is should i focus on this mtech program or should I prepare and appear for the interview again in december month ( summer intake )
Ans: You’re in a good position either way, so don’t worry.
If your true interest is in computational engineering and you’re confident you can prepare well for the December interview, then yes—take the shot again. Just use this time to strengthen your maths and DSA skills.
But at the same time, don’t let go of the IIT Kharagpur M.Tech offer casually. It’s a solid program with its own value, especially if you’re open to careers in ocean/defence/marine sectors or even data-related roles later (with extra effort).
If you're not fully interested in the Kharagpur program and can afford to wait, focus on the December attempt. But if you want to stay on the safe side, you can join IIT KGP now and still try again—if selected, you can shift.
So think based on your passion, patience, and backup needs.

my son has scored 4300 rank in comedk. which courses in RV, bmsce, msrit ? more chances to get? if in BMSCE if he takes cs with business systems, any scope for this course in future?
Ans: At 4300 rank in COMEDK, your son has a fair chance for some good branches in BMSCE, MSRIT, and maybe a few options in RV (though RV is slightly tougher).
Here’s what he can realistically expect:
• BMSCE: Likely to get CSE with Business Systems, ECE, ISE, or other allied branches like AI/ML or Data Science (depending on cutoffs that year).
• MSRIT: Better chances here – similar branches as above, possibly even core CSE if cutoffs move a bit.
• RV: Slightly tight at 4300, but may get branches like ECE, ISE, or newer CSE specialisations if cutoffs drop.
CSE with Business Systems (TCS collaboration) is a good and growing program – it combines CS fundamentals with business understanding, which is in demand in product companies, fintech, and IT consulting. Companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, etc., actively hire from this program.
So yes, it’s a smart option if your son is interested in both tech and how businesses use it.

Hi Dr Karan. I was admitted to a fully-funded PhD programme at a US university, but my F1 visa was denied under 214(b). I had all documents, strong academic scores, and even an assistantship. I don't understand what I did wrong. Can someone explain what factors influence F1 visa approval in 2025?
Ans: Hi, I understand how upsetting this can be—especially after all the hard work to get into a fully-funded PhD.
A 214(b) refusal usually means the visa officer wasn't convinced you'll return to your home country after your studies. It's not always about your documents or academics—they may have had doubts about your ties to your home country, family situation, or future plans.
Even with a funded PhD, they look at how clearly you explain your long-term goals and how well you connect them to returning home (or not staying in the U.S. permanently right away). Sometimes, it's just how your answers come across during the short interview.
You can reapply—many students do get approved on a second attempt. Just make sure you're clear, confident, and prepared to explain your intent to return home after your studies. Let me know if you want help with that.

Ans: Hello! It’s great that you’re thinking ahead.
For internships, since you're just entering 2nd year, try to focus on basics first—go for free virtual internships or short-term ones in local industries. Platforms like Internshala, AICTE internship portal, or even approaching nearby workshops, plants, or manufacturing units can help. Even unpaid internships now will build your skills and resume.
After B.Tech, if you're looking to go abroad for jobs in mechanical engineering, Germany, USA is a top choice—strong in manufacturing and engineering, plus they value Indian engineering graduates. Canada and Australia are also good, but usually prefer candidates with a master’s degree or some work experience.
So, build your profile step by step—get some hands-on training, improve your technical skills (like CAD, SolidWorks, etc.), and think of doing a master's abroad later to improve job chances.

Ans: Rishihood University is a fairly new private university in Sonipat, but it’s building a unique model around impact-based learning and entrepreneurship. Yes, their class sizes are small, which allows for more personalized attention. They do focus on early exposure through internships – even international ones – which is quite rare for first-year students in India.
It’s still growing, so while it may not yet have the legacy of older institutions, it’s definitely worth exploring if you're looking for an innovative and hands-on approach to education. Good to visit, speak to faculty or students, and see if the vibe suits you.

Is it possible to at least apply for the course now in anyway? Secondly how is placement opportunity in SRM and VIT after completion of the course?
Ans: VIT Chennai – BSc (Hons) Economics
• The application deadline is over (15th May), but sometimes colleges accept late applications if seats are vacant.
Email or call VIT Chennai admissions office immediately — politely request if late application is possible. There’s a chance they may consider it.
Placement – VIT vs SRM (Economics)
• Economics placements in both are limited compared to engineering — depends more on skills, internships, and higher studies
• VIT has slightly better campus brand and exposure than SRM
• For core economics jobs, students usually go for Masters or UPSC/CAT/GRE after BSc
Apply to more colleges as backup. If VIT allows late entry — it’s a good option. But focus more on building skills + future studies, as that matters more than just college name for economics.

Dear Sirs - I had a query on the international programs by BITS , Manipal called 2+2 where the student is doing the first two years in their campuses here and the remaining two abroad. But what happens if the student fails to secure a visa, can he continue the remaining two years in the same college as the brochures are not clear on that
Ans: In most 2+2 programs by BITS, Manipal, or similar universities, if a student doesn’t get the visa or can’t go abroad, the option to continue the remaining two years in India is not always guaranteed. It depends on the specific agreement with the foreign partner university.
That’s why it’s very important to email the admissions office and ask clearly:
“If my child is unable to get a visa or travel abroad after 2 years, can they complete the degree at your Indian campus?”
Get the answer in writing, and keep it for your records. This avoids any confusion later.

1. Maths (especially Linear Algebra & Calculus) – base for all ECE subjects
2. Basic Python or C Programming – needed for coding and logic building
3. Digital Electronics Basics – learn about logic gates, circuits, etc. (YouTube is enough)
4. Basic Electronics – resistors, capacitors, voltage, current — very useful
Online Platforms
• NPTEL – Indian, very good for ECE basics
• Coursera – “Introduction to Electronics” (Georgia Tech)
• edX – “Circuits and Electronics” (MIT)
• W3Schools / GeeksforGeeks – for Python or C
Other Skills to Develop:
• Problem-solving skills (through coding or puzzles)
• Teamwork and communication (ECE projects need collaboration)
• Curiosity to tinker – small DIY kits or Arduino/Raspberry Pi if he’s interested

Actually i don't know its career based or not, but i think its important So i got admission in chandigarh university mohali for be cse, with a fee scholarship of 50%, hoping to get 100% scholarship through their entrance test Their rule is that if u wanna renew the scholarship after first sem, u must have atleast 75% attendance or 7.5 cgpa, i still think its fine If by any chance i was able to get those renewals till getting these conditions upto my 7th sem too Do they ask to pay a sum of large amount of money or asks us to pay full fees completely 10,80,000 in tuition fees before my final exam? Or do they ask to pay these to write the 8th sem aka final exam or to get the graduation certificate from the university even after i scored 7.5+ cgpa and 75% attendance in all 7 sems Have u ever heard about it ? Or something like this happened in chandigarh university or any other universities? (So sorry for such a long question)
Ans: If you keep your CGPA above 7.5 and 75% attendance, and your scholarship is renewed every semester, you don’t need to pay the full ?10.8 lakh later. They won’t suddenly ask for all the fees in 8th sem or stop you from giving exams or getting your degree — as long as you followed their rules. But — to be 100% sure, I strongly suggest you email the university scholarship or admissions office and ask them clearly:
• "If I maintain the conditions for scholarship renewal till 7th sem, will I need to pay the full tuition fee later to write my final exam or get my degree?"
Get their reply in writing. Keep it safe.
This way, you’ll have peace of mind and clarity.
