1. Does Bio Sciences have options post graduation in India or it is largely going to be CS based roles? 2. EEE will it allow both core and non core streams as future career options?

Ans: Sharma, With 289 marks in BITSAT 2025, your ward can secure admission at BITS Goa and BITS Hyderabad campuses. The expected cutoffs for 289 marks include: BITS Goa - Electronics & Communication Engineering (252-293), Electrical & Electronics Engineering (247-283), Mechanical Engineering (216-260), or Chemical Engineering (197-245); BITS Hyderabad - Electronics & Communication Engineering (258-296), Electrical & Electronics Engineering (246-290), Mechanical Engineering (209-260), Chemical Engineering (197-245), or Civil Engineering (195-240). With this score, Computer Science and Engineering remains inaccessible at all BITS campuses as cutoffs range from 279-316 at BITS Goa to 288-308 at BITS Hyderabad. NIT Goa's Computer Science Engineering achieved 86.36% placement in 2024 with an average of ?11.02 LPA, while CSE recorded 100% placement in 2022-23 with ?13.4 LPA average package. Manipal Institute of Technology main campus CSE maintains 77% placement rate for 2025 with an overall average package of ?11.76 LPA, supported by 230+ recruiters including Amazon, Microsoft, and Bosch, though branch-specific CSE data shows approximately 81% placement with ?13.1 LPA average. Both NIT Goa and Manipal offer robust placement support, modern infrastructure, and industry connections, but NIT Goa provides government institute prestige while Manipal offers superior campus facilities and larger recruiter diversity.

Recommendation: Choose NIT Goa CSE for its consistent 100% placement record in recent years, prestigious government institute status, and strong average packages; opt for Manipal main campus CSE if you prefer superior infrastructure, larger recruiter base, and private university flexibility, though placement rates are comparatively lower than NIT Goa's proven track record.

Participate in the state-level counseling process wisely and choose your options carefully. Your son has a good chance to get into tier 1-2 colleges. Otherwise, CSE @ MIT-WPU is also the best option. You can go with it.
