Is coaching like allen pw necessary for jee or neet
Ans: hi
Coaching like Allen, PW (Physics Wallah), Aakash, etc., is not strictly necessary to crack JEE or NEET, but it can be very helpful.
They provide Structured Plan, Conceptual Clarity, Competitive Environment, Test Practice and Strategy and many more things.
if you are self discipline and can do all of the above then coaching is not needed,

Sir please suggest among top 5 EAPCET Engineering colleges in Andhra Pradesh VS SASTRA for CSE
Ans: Hello Hari
If you get AUCE Vizag or JNTU-K (Govt. colleges) with CSE branch then You may consider them equivalent to or slightly below SASTRA, especially if cost or location matters more.
Else Sastra is best.

IIT Bombay Mechanical or IIT Bombay Engineering physics which is better
Ans: Hi
If you are not strongly inclined towards Physics or research, Mechanical Engineering is a safer and more versatile bet. But if you are academically brilliant and want to enter elite research or tech domains (quant, AI, quantum), Engineering Physics can give you an edge but only if you actively seek opportunities beyond coursework.

My son finished his B.Tech AI & Data Science in Anna University chennai. Now.he got a Tech admission in AI and Robotics in SASTRA unversity Thanjvur.. If he joined, Will it worth for him. Thanks
Ans: Hello Veeranan
SASTRA is NAAC A++ accredited, and has decent placements, it is not Tier 1 for M.Tech recruitment. Many AI/Robotics core companies may prefer IITs/IIITs/IISc.
He might have to do independent projects, internships, or research papers to stand out.
Consider whether the financial cost + 2 years is justified versus working for 1-2 years, gaining experience, or doing a specialized MS abroad.

Ans: Hello Dhanraj
for BITS India campuses he should score above 330, it is a safe score for CSE. 2nd attempt is still there. He can improve.
Best colleges in Maharashtra for CSE are IIT-B/VNIT/COEP/PICT/VJTI/SPIT/DJ Sanghvi. I think MHTCET results are yet to be declared.
In Telangana IIIT-H/IIT-H/JNTU/CBIT are good.

Ans: The most common route for students like you is through NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling):
Enroll in NIOS as a candidate for an additional subject (Mathematics).
Appear for the Senior Secondary (Class 12) exam in Mathematics.
Once you pass, you’ll have a valid Class 12 mark sheet with Mathematics as an added subject.
You can reappear for Class 12 from CBSE or another recognized board with Mathematics included:
Register as a private candidate with CBSE or a state board that allows this.
Appear for Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM).

Cse data science kindly help me on which should I go for to have a good placement
Ans: Hello Yash
If you're certain about a career in data science/analytics, VIT’s integrated course offers a head start.
SRM KTR CSE gives flexibility After 4 years, you can choose to work, do M.Tech, MS, or MBA.
If you want better placements, a more reputed brand, and are okay with 5 years of study, choose VIT Vellore Integrated M.Tech.
If you prefer flexibility or plan to go for MBA/MS abroad, SRM KTR CSE might be more versatile.

I got ECE branch in amrita vishwa vidyapeetham bangalore campus and CSE in kiit which one is good and why?
Ans: If your interest lies in coding, software development, AI, data science, then CSE is the better branch.
KIIT has strong industry collaboration and massive intake in CSE – good if you’re aiming for IT/tech jobs.
If you want to study in Bangalore, which is India’s tech capital, it offers great internship and off-campus placement opportunities.
Amrita is more disciplined and academically strong, with a better academic culture.
You can still switch to coding/software from ECE with effort – many ECE students get placed in IT companies.
