My son is in grade 10th, he wants to prepare for neet but he went for counselling twice where he had given some test which gave him results to prefer engineering now he is confused if i will not be able to do fare in neet thn what should i opt for since hes planning to go for integrated? Ease help
Ans: Hello.
To which tests your son appeared is not mentioned by you. I am assuming that he may be based to appear for either an IQ test or a DMIT Test. I would like to say that there is no need to 100% trust these tests. The results of these tests depend on the mindset of a student at that time. These tests are never 100% correct. Hence there is no need to worry about the results of these tests and what the counselor has told you.
Here are some key points on which you can work:
(1) Please ask his school teachers about his subject understanding.
(2) Please take an overall review of maths and science subjects from an understanding point of view only.
(3) Have an open talk with your son about his interest either in mathematics or biology.
(4) If possible, try to make an interaction with senior students who are preparing for JEE or NEET.
(5) Even though the coaching is now focussing either on PCM or PCB groups, it is advisable to take all 4 subjects PCMB in the 11th standard.
(6) Take a trial for at least 2 initial months in 11th standard for maths and biology subjects.
(7) Your son will automatically tell his interest in either engineering or medicine.
(8) Don't force your willingness on him to prepare for NEET.
(9) Based on the final decision, you may think of integrated courses.
(10) Your's sons interest matters more. If he is firm to go for NEET, then motivate him and keep the results of counselor tests aside.
Best of luck to your son for his bright future.

If satisfied, please like and follow me.
If dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
Thanks.

Sir, my daughter has admission from IITH Engineering Physics.Can you please advise about the course Outlook, prospects as we get mixed views.We also have option from Anna University CEG Campus ECE at Chennai.While we are not inclined towards any specific branch, what should be the ideal option.Also,she has minimal interest in coding/programming.
Ans: Vijay Sir, With Engineering Physics at IIT Hyderabad, the program’s interdisciplinary curriculum combines core physics, advanced electronics and applied mathematics in state-of-the-art labs. Faculty hold Ph.D. credentials and publish in top journals, and the department emphasizes research internships with international collaborations in photonics, quantum technologies and materials science. However, mixed views arise from a niche placement spectrum—only 14.29 percent of the 2024 batch secured on-campus offers—prompting most graduates toward higher studies or research roles rather than industry positions. Accreditation is top-tier (UGC Category I, NAAC A++), and the small cohort size fosters close mentorship but limits peer networking.

Anna University CEG’s ECE offers rigorous training in communications, VLSI and embedded systems with NAAC A accreditation, strong industry tie-ups via CUIC, and consistent 75 percent+ placement rates over the past three years with major recruiters across core electronics and IT sectors. Faculty include experienced Ph.D. holders, and the campus facilitates soft-skills development through dedicated workshops. Infrastructure comprises modern labs, maker spaces and active student chapters with regular industry seminars.

Recommendation:
IIT Hyderabad’s Engineering Physics suits students driven by cutting-edge research and academic pursuits, whereas CEG’s ECE is preferable for structured industry placements and applied electronics roles. Given minimal interest in coding, the hands-on electronics focus and robust campus recruitment at CEG Anna University align better with practical careers without heavy programming. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

(Ignore COMEDK as you will get only Tier-2 Colleges for your Rank of 10000).

Recommendation: MIT-WPU ECE ranks highest for consistent placements, cutting-edge labs and national accreditation; JECRC CSE follows for its expansive recruiter network and robust CSE curriculum; choose based on priority for placement stability versus broad hiring access. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
