My son is 17 year old and is having PCM as his subject and is in 12 th class. He is having sinusits allergy due to which he is frequently ill and have very less stamina. Also he is not able to focus well in his studies and sometimes have to miss his lectures in coaching due to illness. As a result he is not well prepared for jee. He has been a brilliant student and scored 96 percent in 10 th board and was interested in science. But now he is not able to give efforts which are required for Jee exam. Also he got around 60 percent in 12 halfyearly exam. My question is whether he should continue to prepare for jee or just focus on 12 board and then change subjects / prepare for IPMat or anything else u suggest.

Ans: Hello.
Sad to hear about the illness your son has at this stage. Many times, the percentage or performance of the 10th board examination does not work for the preparation of JEE. Students seem to be brilliant up to 10th because for many reasons. But most of them fail to cope with the syllabus of JEE. The pattern of the 10th Board examination is different than that of JEE which is based on MCQs. The study techniques are different for both examinations. If he has a sinusitis allergy due to which he is unable to attend classes sometimes and unable to focus on his studies, then you have to think differently. For JEE preparation, one has to be consistent in studies. One should not depend upon the classes/teachers. Students must be a self-learner. It would be better to focus on the 12th Board and along with the board, prepare for IPM. There is no harm also. But making the right decision at the right time will help your son release the stress/burden of JEE. Also, it is wrong that success comes only via JEE.

Career

Res.Sir, My son got 90 % marks in 10th and his PCM group is good. He wants to go for JEE classes for two years. He wants to prepare for IIT. Should I support him ? Second thing he always asks me if I fail in option one then what will be second option ? He is above 88 % from std 5th and his English and Science is Good. He is hard working student. Please guide me for his good career.

Ans: Sir,
Let him pursue his dream. Ask him to be in a positive mind frame. Success and failure are part of life. And one must accept and learn from it and move on.

If he is good in PCM engineering career is a good choice. Let him prepare and appear for JEE-MAIN & ADVANCED. There are other engineering entrances too which will fetch him admission to many other prestigious institutes.

Let him work hard for 2 years this training will help him in further studies.

Sir, my son got 96.654 percentile in JEE MAINS-2026, can we expect B.TECH -M. TECH integrated course in NFSU Gandhinagar main campus sir.

Ans: With a 96.654 percentile, your son's approximate CRL may be around 50,000–55,000, which looks competitive because NFSU also called many candidates beyond the top 100 merit numbers in its second counselling list. The programme has only 40 seats (may or may not increase) at Gandhinagar, so apply immediately and keep documents ready. It is advisable to have some backup options of the following: NFSU Delhi/Tripura/Dharwad/Guwahati campuses, IIITs through CSAB, DA-IICT, PDPU/PDEU, Nirma, Ahmedabad University, MIT-WPU, Manipal Jaipur, Thapar, SRM/VIT (North India Campuses). All the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!

ECE in Jaypee noida 62 is better for mechanical in shiv nadar greater noida

Ans: Yes, JIIT Noida Sector 62 ECE is the better recommendation over Mechanical at Shiv Nadar Greater Noida, unless the student has a strong personal interest in core mechanical, robotics, design or manufacturing. JIIT’s official placement page shows strong overall placements, with a ?11.28 LPA average and a ?7.01 LPA median for the 2026 batch so far. JIIT also states that ECE students get opportunities in companies like Qualcomm, Microsoft, Amazon and STMicroelectronics. Shiv Nadar is academically strong and its mechanical curriculum includes automation, design and manufacturing, but mechanical placements are generally narrower than ECE/tech roles. The final choice can be JIIT ECE. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

My son got 99.2 percentile in jee mains getting csd in iiit delhi vs IT/ MNC in nsut or Mnc in DTU ? Is iiit delhi CSD better as it suits due to proximity . Fees no issues . What abt placement n scope in all.three? Regards Rahul

Ans: Rahul Sir, Recommended order is 1) IIIT-Delhi CSD, 2) NSUT IT, 3) DTU MnC, 4) NSUT MnC. IIIT-Delhi is research-focused and coding-intensive, and design + CS gives scope in software, product, UI/UX tech, HCI, AI products, and startups. NSUT IT is safest for traditional software placements and brand comfort; NSUT’s CSE department also highlights strong MNC campus selection. DTU MnC has an excellent brand and tech scope. DTU 2024-25 data shows MCE (MnC) average CTC ?15.22 LPA, while COE/IT are higher. Choose IIIT-D CSD if he likes CS plus design/product thinking. All the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!
