Sir I'm getting 187 marks in JEE ADV 2025 Which branches will I get in top 7 IITs

Ans: With 187 marks in JEE Advanced 2025, your estimated Common Rank List (CRL) position would likely fall between 2,600 and 3,500, based on previous years' data. This rank range may limit access to the most sought-after branches like Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at the top 7 IITs.

However, you have strong prospects in other branches:

IIT Bombay: Mechanical Engineering (closing rank ~1,685), Civil Engineering (~4,046)

IIT Delhi: Mechanical Engineering (~1,774), Civil Engineering (~4,108)

IIT Madras: Mechanical Engineering (~2,302), Civil Engineering (~5,525)

IIT Kanpur: Mechanical Engineering (~2,776), Civil Engineering (~5,948)

IIT Kharagpur: Mechanical Engineering (~3,294), Civil Engineering (~7,177)

IIT Roorkee: Mechanical Engineering (~3,504), Civil Engineering (~6,144)

IIT Guwahati: Mechanical Engineering (~4,200), Civil Engineering (~7,100)

These branches offer excellent academic and career opportunities. Additionally, consider newer IITs like IIT Hyderabad, IIT Indore, or IIT Mandi, where CSE and other popular branches might be accessible within your rank range. Participate actively in the JoSAA counseling process, as seat allocations can vary each year based on applicant preferences and seat availability. All the BEST for your Admission & Prosperous Future!

Sir, my son is getting Mechanical and aerospace engineering in PEC, IT in UIET Chandigarh and CSE in CCET Chandigarh. Please suggest which would be the better option. He has Chandigarh state quota ( General Category)
Ans: Punjab Engineering College (Deemed-to-be University), Chandigarh offers a four-year B.Tech in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering on its verdant 120-acre campus, featuring advanced workshops, aerodynamics and solid-mechanics labs, and a 1:8 faculty-student ratio of predominantly PhD holders. Placement rates for Mechanical Engineering have been 74%, 76% and 47% over the last three years, while Aerospace hovered around 47%, 50% and 42%. University Institute of Engineering & Technology, Panjab University, Chandigarh provides a four-year B.E. in Information Technology with CBCS-based curriculum, specialized IT labs and NAAC A+ accreditation, recording placement rates of 80%, 78.4% and 66.3%. Chandigarh College of Engineering & Technology, Sector 26, Chandigarh offers a four-year B.E. in Computer Science & Engineering with NBA accreditation, modern computing facilities and strong industry ties, achieving CSE placement rates of 78.9%, 69% and 62% over recent years.

Recommendation: Prioritize UIET Chandigarh IT for its consistently strong placement momentum, robust infrastructure and state-quota advantage, followed by CCET Chandigarh CSE for its accredited curriculum and urban campus, and consider PEC Chandigarh Mechanical/Aerospace as a specialized core-engineering backup with solid research orientation. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
