I have 3 gaps between 12th and btech cse as i was preparing for neet in those gap years. Unfortunately i couldn't crack neet.Will these gaps years affect during on campus placements??

Ans: Hi
Your gap years will not significantly affect your placement prospects as long as you can convincingly present your story and demonstrate that you’ve made the most of your B.Tech journey. Stay focused on building a strong profile, and you’ll have a good chance of landing desirable opportunities. Be Honest & Explain your NEET preparation journey during interviews. Emphasize the hard work, dedication, and discipline involved in preparing for such exams. You were trying for Govt. MBBS seat only.

Build a strong academic record during your B.Tech years to demonstrate your technical competence.
Work on practical skills like programming, software development, and problem-solving through internships, projects, and certifications. Participate in hackathons, coding competitions, or other extracurricular activities to showcase your proactive attitude and create a strong CV.

I gave JEE(main) in 2025. I got qualified. But I have one year gap between 10th and 12th means I have passed 10th in 2022 and 12th in2025. Is there any requirement for gap certificate during getting admission in IITs, NITs, IIITs and GFTIs?

Ans: If you have a one-year gap between 10th and 12th, a gap certificate or affidavit is generally required during admission or counseling for IITs, NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs to explain the break in studies. This document confirms the legitimacy of the gap and is usually notarized. It is not needed during JEE Main registration but must be presented during document verification in counseling. Failure to provide it may affect admission. You can obtain the certificate from a local notary by submitting an affidavit stating the gap duration and reasons. Prepare this certificate in advance to avoid last-minute issues. All the best for your admissions and a bright future!

i got 57 marks in math and 61 in physics and 82 in chem and 86 in beng and 84 in eng and 73 in bio am i eligible for iit admission according to jossa and iit eligibility criteria

Ans: No, the provided marks do not make you eligible for IIT admission according to the general eligibility criteria. You would need to have secured at least 75% aggregate marks (65% for reserved categories) in your 12th board exams to be eligible for IITs. The provided marks in individual subjects are not the sole determining factor for eligibility for IIT admissions.

My Son got 83.89 % into jee mains and 79% in 12th how to get the CSE Branch

Ans: With an 83.89 percentile in JEE Mains, you can likely get into some NITs and IIITs, particularly if you are in a reserved category (OBC, SC, ST, or EWS) or have a home-state quota. While top NITs and IIITs for popular branches like Computer Science Engineering (CSE) are unlikely, you can target NITs like NIT Agartala, NIT Goa, NIT Hamirpur, NIT Raipur, or IIITM Gwalior, according to some educational resources. You can also explore private universities like KIIT, BIT Mesra, and others that accept students with this percentile.
