Ans: Hi
you have to write the year when you first appeared 12th.

Ans: Hi Shreya
If you are preparing well for JEE MAIN then BITSAT will be easier for you. JEE ADV requires a completely different outlook and approach as it is considered one of the toughest examinations in the world.

In comparison to ADV, the SAT will be very easy for you. But studying undergrad in USA is a very costly affair, if finances are no issue for you then you can go ahead with it.

Recently BITS campuses have started integrated programs with foreign universities wherein you study 2 years in India & 2 years abroad.

Providing a complete road map is not possible here, but I must say that for JEE MAIN sticking to NCERT & PYQs will be very helpful to you.

Ans: Hi Sudhir
don't worry about the placements first. Ask your son to build a good portfolio in engineering. Work on projects in & out, present papers, participate in workshops of coding etc. Even if not many companies visit the campus or lower average package these skills will make him sail through the career. 1st year may be a bit hard for him after placements but with these skills & knowledge, he will shine wherever he goes.

If he clears his dream of NDA or SSB then there is no issue.

All the best.

Ans: Hi Bhima
I must say you have got perseverance & I appreciate your parent's trust in you. You have already appeared multiple times and you are going to appear again in 2025. By the time you will be 25 years old. They say there is no age to learn. But after getting admission you need another 10 years to practice as a qualified specialist. Make sure you take admission in the next session.

If higher cutoff & high fees of private colleges are an issue for you, then try exploring the MBBS abroad option, I can help with that too. Since NEXT is compulsory for Indian & Foreign graduates too it won't make a difference if you study in India or Abroad.

For time forget all the societal pressure and give your 100% and make your parents proud.

Ans: Hi
AFMC has stringent criteria for age. Unfortunately, you won't be eligible for AFMC if you are even 1 day older than 24 years on 31st December of the year of application.

Ans: Congratulations on your son's admission to VIT Vellore in the CSE branch! VIT takes care of the trending avenues in the IT industry and offers optional subjects to upgrade skills.

It is not possible to get a seat in NIT at this percentile.

Ans: Hi Meghnasagar
to be honest there is nothing called partial drop, its like sailing in 2 boats. This will not help.
Private colleges in India are pretty expensive. If MBBS is your only dream, we can explore options for MBBS abroad, which are quite economical.

Other options can be physiotherapy, pharmacy, bsc in forensics etc.

Ans: Hi Samridhi,
You will have to check with your institute if they have the flexibility to change the course. Otherwise, you need to drop this course and take fresh admission in 1st year.

Ans: Hi Dev,
this will be counted as 2nd attempt.

Ans: Hi Jui,
Since you have experience of 2 attempts and you have improved by 200+ marks in NEET. It will be good to go after it. This year has been very bad for NEET aspirants, higher cutoffs had brought down the morale of many. But I must say that you have that in you, go for preps with full confidence & zeal you will make it. Work on your weaker areas, avoid negatives, score maximum in bio, don't neglect physics as it is the decider for ranks. ALL THE BEST.

Ans: Hi,
It's great to know that you know your positives & negatives well. You cannot sail in 2 boats, my friends. UPSC & CAT are completely different from each other & require different approaches. Decide your goal first and then give it all.

Ans: Hi
Yes, you can fill jee in the general category very well. But you will lose the lower cutoff and fee benefits in the general category. General category cutoff & fees will be applicable.

if you are not much of a homesick kind of person & food is not a big issue for you then prefer Ramaiah.

Ans: Hi Piyush
Till last year VIT Pune was the most sought option, but this year they have merged VIT & VIIT and people are avoiding it.
For a better campus life, industry exposure & placements MIT-WPU is a better choice.

Ans: Hi Kiran
IIITs were established in the Public Private Partnership model by GOI, the courses of IIITs are more industry-ready. At NITs, the syllabus upgrade takes a long time. Hence the placements are higher at IIITs. In the coming time IIITs admission cutoff will be above NITs.

Ans: Hi

Manipal is a better choice as it gives the better industry exposure and placements over YMCA.
