(5) Use quality free online resources- YouTube: Physics Wallah, Apni Kaksha, Mohit Tyagi, MathonGo, Vedantu JEE, Unacademy JEE (free lectures), etc. (6) Follow standard books. A list can be generated with the help of college teachers. (7) Make a realistic daily schedule. (8) Solve previous year papers. (9) Take mock tests regularly conducted by college and through paid online platforms. (10) Find a mentor or online study group. (11) Focus on conceptual clarity over rote learning. (11) Stay consistent and avoid burnout. (12) Develop self-confidence. (13) Seek the help of college teachers to resolve your difficulties from time to time. (14) Consider joining some private tutors only for difficulty solving.

Question by Mehul - Jul 21, 2024Hindi

Career

Hi Sir, My son studies in 8th grade in an IGCSE board school in Mumbai. He is keen to pursue Engineering and crack JEE exams. I want him to start preparing for it early and already motivating him to study syllabus of CBSE Maths not covered in IGCSE. He shows great excitement in the same and does it willingly. I shall also do the same for Science. My queries are as below. What do I do after his 10th boards? Should I ask him pursue AS and A boards or enrol him to an academy for an integrated study of 11th and 12th + JEE? I am keen to have private tutors for JEE studies. Will this be better than academy coaching? Should I enrol him in a Junior college for 11th and 12th and also ask him to prepare for JEE simultaneously? Thanks, Mehul

Ans: Mehul Sir,

Thoroughly read your question Sir. Here-below are some Options / Important Suggestions & Why?:

Option-1

After he finishes his 8th Standard, you can get admission for him into any CBSE-School (or) Maharashtra State Board School which also has an integrated Program.

As far as I know, there are very less number of CBSE Schools. If you can get into any CBSE School, well and good.

If he joins any State Board Integrated School from the 9th itself, it is highly recommended to thoroughly go through the NCERT Books of 9th to 12th Standards which is most important for JEE preparation.

It is preferable to start early for JEE (from 9th standard to cover NCERT basic concepts), but not mandatory.

Option-2

If you decide NOT to discontinue from IGCSE till 10th standard, you will have to put him in any JEE-Integrated School for 11th/12th Standard.

However, it is advisable to go through the NCERT books of 9th/10th, whenever time permits for your son as the quantity of subjects/syllabus of IGCSE will be more, compared to CBSE.

Option-3

As you prefer Home Tutors, please note, highly experienced Home Tutors (especially for JEE-Advanced preparation) charge on hourly-basis and depending upon the subject (for example, tuition fee for Maths will be higher, compared to Physics & Chemistry).

Please choose the best option, suitable for you/for your son out of the above 3-options.

Some other value-added tips:

1) Please give more importance to Maths, followed by Physics, as JEE Rank is allotted on the basis of highest marks in Maths.
2) If you prefer an Integrated Program, make sure the School/Integrated Class is not too far from your home. Travel consumes/wastes lot of your valuable time.
3) For other PRACTICAL Strategies / Steps / Tips, please go through some of my answers below, related to JEE preparation.

All the BEST for Your Son's Bright Future.

Question by Raja - May 13, 2025

Career

Sir my son got 85percntiel in jee main in gen category as rank 230372 give me some idea what to do next for joining him college

Ans: Hello Raja
Considering your son's score in the JEE (Mains) and his category, securing a seat in NITs or IIITs for a top engineering course may be challenging. If he has taken a state-level engineering entrance test and achieved good marks, it could be possible to obtain a seat in a government engineering college or a reputable private college. If he has not, then consider selecting a reputable college and branch and applying through the management quota. If financial constraints exist, compromises may be necessary in terms of branch and college selection. Securing a seat in one of the engineering colleges is feasible. If he is interested in core branches (i.e., civil/mechanical/electrical), he can attain admission to the best college with these preferred core branches. Suggestion: If you are considering a core branch, opt for Electrical if possible.

Sir, my son has scored 92.24 percentile in JEE Main exam and his all india rank 121271 and 40322 obc ncl category. Home state is TN. Is there possible admission at Puducherry NIT, Or else any core branch at Trichy NIT. He also preferring for JEE ADVANCED

Ans: Based on your son’s score, admission to NIT Trichy is unlikely. In 2024, the HS OBC-NCL closing ranks at NIT Trichy were approximately: Chemical Engineering around 33,075, Mechanical at 23,504, Production at 31,383, Metallurgy at 43,010, and Civil at 47,466. This means Metallurgy and Civil are borderline options but not safe bets.

For NIT Puducherry, chances improve in the CSAB Special Round, especially for branches like Mechanical, Civil, and Electrical. For example, the 2024 CSAB closing rank for Mechanical OBC-NCL female-only was around 52,681, though gender-neutral and core branch cutoffs vary by quota.

It’s advisable to fill choices for lower-preference branches at NIT Trichy, all branches at NIT Puducherry, and also consider NIT Andhra, NIT Goa, NIT Agartala, NIT Mizoram, and NIT Meghalaya in CSAB if these NITs are preferred over Trichy and Puducherry.

For stronger backups in Tamil Nadu, your son can participate in TNEA counseling, though it may be challenging for non-TN board students. Options include CEG, MIT, SSN, PSG, CIT, Sri Sairam, and Kumaraguru, depending on board marks.

Encourage your son to continue preparing seriously for JEE Advanced. If possible and affordable, keep 3-4 reputed private engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu as backups, such as SSN, SNU, Amrita, Sathyabhama, and Saveetha through other admission routes. All the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!

Sir I scored 91 percentile in Jee mains, rank is 1.5 lakh. Which good chemical engineering government colleges can I expect? (home state is telangana)

Ans: At a 91 percentile and an estimated CRL around 1.5 lakh, securing Chemical Engineering at NIT Warangal is not realistic, as recent HS Open category closing ranks for Chemical Engineering were around 23,000–26,000, much higher than your rank.

Admission to Chemical Engineering in other NITs and GFTIs through JoSAA is also challenging at this rank. However, you should definitely participate in the CSAB Special Rounds, since vacant-seat cutoffs sometimes drop lower after JoSAA counseling. Use the official JoSAA archive and CSAB opening-closing rank data when filling your final choices.

More realistic government or state options are available through Telangana’s TG EAPCET counseling rather than JEE Main. Consider Chemical or allied branches in JNTUH-affiliated colleges, OU-affiliated colleges, and reputed Telangana colleges offering Chemical or related courses. Colleges like CBIT (Chemical), Chaitanya Bharathi, Anurag, VNR, and Vasavi could be good options if you have branch flexibility.

If placement is a priority, branches like ECE, Mechanical, Civil, or AI-DS in better private colleges might offer better prospects. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Career

Hello Sir, My daughter has secure 35500 Rank in Jee main we r staying in Rajasthan... general category....... Not interested in South & east States .... Interested in MNC. CSE, ECE, ...Branches ... please advice for

Ans: Rajesh Sir, Based on your daughter’s score, admission to MNIT Jaipur for CSE or ECE is not realistic, as the 2024 HS female closing ranks were around 8,836 for CSE, 15,405 for ECE, and 21,644 for EE. However, branches like Civil or Metallurgy might still be possible, especially with some lower-branch movement seen in CSAB rounds.

She can consider applying to IIIT Una, IIIT Kota, IIIT Bhopal, IIIT Sonepat, IIIT Nagpur, IIIT Bhagalpur, GFTI PEC Chandigarh (for lower branches), and BIT Mesra through JoSAA and CSAB counseling.

It’s also advisable to keep these backups in mind: LNMIIT Jaipur, Thapar Institute, JIIT Noida, Nirma University, PDEU, Bennett University, Shiv Nadar University, UPES, and Manipal Jaipur. Additionally, fill REAP Rajasthan options such as MBM Jodhpur, CTAE Udaipur, and RTU Kota.

If placements in MNCs are a priority, choosing CSE, AI, or IT branches in good private colleges is often better than other branches in reputed institutes.

Finally, reviewing JoSAA opening and closing ranks from the past 2–3 years will provide valuable insights and help your daughter confidently select and maximize her preferred choices. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

Question by Anshika - Apr 28, 2026Hindi

Career

My daughter has 80 percentile in jee mains in general ews from uttarpradesh please suggest me

Ans: Anshika Madam, At an 80 percentile, your daughter’s expected CRL rank may be around 2.5 to 3 lakh. Even with General-EWS category, chances of admission to NITs or IIITs through JoSAA, especially for CSE or ECE, are very low. She can consider applying for lower-demand branches in some GFTIs or newer, remote institutes if seats remain vacant.

CSAB conducts special rounds after JoSAA for vacant NIT and related seats, which she should participate in.

It is highly recommended to have backup options such as AKTU/UPTAC colleges, KIET, GL Bajaj, JSS Noida, ABES, Galgotias, NIET, and private universities like Bennett, Sharda, Chandigarh University, UPES, LPU, SRM North India campuses, and VIT-AP/Bhopal. For CSE-related branches, state and private counseling routes are the more practical approach, instead of relying only on JoSAA/CSAB. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

Question by Sidarth - Apr 28, 2026Hindi

Career

Sir I have 93.5 percentile in jee mains and I am a kashmiri migrant i want to know that will I get top colleges of Maharashtra I have km merit rank in cap councelling of 28 based on last year out of 389 people and also please tell if the quota is in nits

Ans: Sidarth, With a 93.5 percentile and a KM merit rank of 28, your Maharashtra CAP chances are strong. Maharashtra CET rules treat J&K/Ladakh Migrant candidates separately, and for engineering admissions, a positive JEE Main score is given preference over MHT-CET scores.

You should aggressively fill choices including COEP Pune, VJTI Mumbai, SPIT Mumbai, PICT Pune, DJ Sanghvi, Walchand Sangli, Cummins, PCCOE, VIT Pune, and MIT-WPU. With a KM rank of 28, admission to top colleges is possible. However, CSE/IT in COEP, VJTI, SPIT, or PICT may be uncertain due to limited seats. Branches like ECE, AI-DS, ENTC, or IT in strong colleges are more realistic options. VJTI’s 2024 closing ranks indicate that CSE/IT branches remain highly competitive.

Regarding NITs, there is no general Kashmiri Migrant quota through JoSAA, as admissions follow CRL/category/HS-OS rules. The CSAB supernumerary quota in 2025 applied only to specific UT candidates, not broadly to KM. Nonetheless, it’s advisable to participate in JoSAA and CSAB counseling rounds.

Also, consider having 3-4 backup options to keep your chances secure. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

My daughter has got 93.91in jee 2026 with rank 95015 in general category and home state as delhi .please tell what are her chances of getting admission and branch in igdtu ,thapar and lnmit.Do IPU colleges in delhi hav good placements.please suggest some other good colleges for cse and related branches and ece

Ans: Based on your daughter's score, admission to IGDTUW is possible mainly in later rounds or spot rounds. For example, in 2023 Round-5 Delhi cutoffs (approximate), CSE closed around 58,531, IT at 66,326, AIML at 71,162, ECE at 90,900, and MAE at 1,03,589, making ECE and MAE more realistic options, while CSE and IT would be difficult.

Regarding Thapar Institute, the chances are better. In 2024, later cutoffs for Punjab quota showed Computer Engineering around 92,826 and ECE around 97,890, with some allied branches going much lower. For candidates outside Punjab, core CSE is tougher, but ECE, Electronics, and related branches in lower rounds could be worth applying for.

At LNMIIT, CSE admission is unlikely due to high JEE percentile expectations, but ECE might still be possible.

Consider IPU Delhi as a backup, along with reputable colleges like USICT, MAIT, MSIT, BVCOE, and BPIT, which have decent placement records. For detailed placement data, please check the respective college websites and online resources.

Other backup options to explore include JIIT Noida, Shiv Nadar University, UPES, Manipal Jaipur, Bennett University, and Chandigarh University. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

Question by Jagdish - Apr 28, 2026Hindi

Career

My daughter got 95.92 percentile in JEE mains with 64228 crl and 9516 ews category. In which not or iiit she can get cse

Ans: Jagdish Sir, Based on your daughter's score, realistic chances for CSE or related branches may be found in lower-demand NITs and IIITs, primarily through the female quota and in later JoSAA or CSAB rounds. Institutes like NIT Mizoram, NIT Meghalaya, NIT Nagaland, NIT Arunachal Pradesh, and NIT Sikkim are worth trying, though CSE admission remains borderline.

In IIITs, options such as IIIT Bhagalpur, IIIT Ranchi, IIIT Kalyani, IIIT Una, IIIT Sri City, IIIT Nagpur, IIIT Dharwad, and IIIT Kottayam could be considered. While CSE might be challenging, branches like IT, ECE, or AI-related fields may be more attainable depending on how seat availability shifts round by round.

Additionally, reviewing JoSAA opening and closing ranks from the past 2–3 years can provide valuable insights and help your daughter confidently select and fill her preferred and maximum number of choices. Have 3-4 reputed private engineering colleges also as backup options. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

Ans: Korampally, with your score, securing ECE in any NIT is extremely unlikely. You may try for lower-preference branches if you still want to pursue an NIT. However, it's important to have 3-4 backup options beyond JoSAA and CSAB counseling rounds, so you’re not relying solely on those for admission. ALL the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Ans: You have not mentioned your son's home state. Anyway, please note he may get core or non-core branches in newer or lower-tier NITs, some IIITs, and GFTIs, especially in later JoSAA rounds, depending on the home-state quota and branch preferences. He can also target Tier-3 and Tier-4 NITs such as NIT Sikkim, NIT Manipur, NIT Nagaland, and NIT Arunachal for branches like Mechanical, Civil, EIE, Production, Metallurgy, and similar fields.

Additionally, exploring IIITs outside the top 5—such as IIIT Bhagalpur, IIIT Kalyani, IIIT Surat, and IIIT Kottayam—through JoSAA or CSAB rounds can be worthwhile.

Parallel options to consider include the CSAB Special Round, state government engineering colleges, and reputable private institutes in or near your home state. ALL the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

In recent years, the ECE closing ranks for the Common Rank List (CRL) in these institutes have crossed 50,000 to 80,000, especially during the later rounds of counseling.
