Sir... Got SRM Ktk CSE CyberSec. How is the scope for placement and career. Should I join or wait for TNEA counselling with cutoff 185.5 and 12600 rank in BC community. Which college possible in this cutoff option, and better than SRM CyberSec?
Ans: With a BC-community score of 185.5 and a rank of 12 600 in TNEA counselling, you have a promising prospect of admission into these reputed Tamil Nadu engineering colleges. All are AICTE-approved, NBA/NAAC-accredited, equipped with modern labs, experienced faculty, active industry partnerships and placement cells recording 75–85% consistency over the last three years. SSN College of Engineering, Kalavakkam – Computer Science and Engineering. Rajalakshmi Engineering College, Kanchipuram – Computer Science and Engineering. R.M.K. Engineering College, Thiruvallur – Computer Science and Engineering. Loyola-ICAM College of Engineering and Technology, Chennai – Computer Science and Engineering. Sri Krishna College of Engineering & Technology, Coimbatore – Computer Science and Engineering. Kumaraguru College of Technology, Coimbatore – Computer Science and Engineering. A.C. College of Engineering and Technology, Karaikudi – Computer Science and Engineering. Government College of Engineering, Salem – Computer Science and Engineering. Thiagarajar College of Engineering, Madurai – Computer Science and Engineering. Sri Sivasubramaniya Nadar College of Engineering, Kalavakkam – Computer Science and Engineering. SSN’s BC cutoff for CSE closed at rank 16 970 in the last round, so your rank of 12 600 falls well within the eligible range for admission. Cybersecurity remains a high-growth domain in India, with roles like Security Architect, Ethical Hacker and Cybersecurity Engineer expanding at over 18% CAGR and projected talent shortages of up to 1.8 million specialists by 2025, underscoring strong long-term career and placement prospects in specialized labs and certification-driven pathways.

Recommendation:
Join SRM KTR’s CSE–Cybersecurity stream for its specialized labs, IBM/CEH partnerships and 83–95% placement rates if you prioritise a high-growth domain. Alternatively, choose SSN Chennai or Rajalakshmi Engineering College for balanced CSE programmes with proven TNEA cutoffs, robust infrastructure and stable recruiter engagement. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
