89.64 percentile mains Vit chennai cse Mit blr cse Sir can you please tell what should my daughter join

Ans: With 89.64 percentile, your daughter’s CSE options at VIT Chennai and MIT Bangalore are both strong. VIT Chennai offers better average placements (~?7 lakh), flexible academics, and lower fees (?2-5 lakh total). MIT Bangalore provides good placements (~?6.5 lakh), a competitive academic environment, and proximity to the IT industry but with higher fees (~?14 lakh total). Choose VIT for cost-effectiveness and flexibility, or Manipal for academic rigor and Bangalore’s industry exposure. Both have excellent faculty and infrastructure, so consider your daughter’s preferences for campus life, location, and budget before deciding. All the best for your admissions and a bright future!

Hi Sir, my daughter scored 95.6 percentile in jee mains, pesit jee main based rank 1301 for first round of counselling, kcet rank of 513x,Comedk 106 marks,MET manipal rank 276x.We are focusing on college and CSE branch.What are her options and which one we shouls choose?
Ans: Based on comprehensive analysis of entrance ranks and placement records, your daughter's JEE Main rank (1301) positions her favorably for PES University (Ring Road Campus) CSE through JEE quota, given its 83-87% B.Tech placement rate and consistent recruitment by top tech firms. Her KCET rank (513x) may secure CSE at PES Electronic City Campus (KCET cutoff ~5,230-5,400), which shares PES’s academic rigor but with slightly lower placement traction. While her COMEDK score (106) likely translates to a rank (~1,800-3,300), it falls short for top COMEDK colleges like RVCE or MSRIT (CSE cutoff ranks ~400-1,500), making mid-tier institutions like Dayanand Sagar (CSE cutoff ~3,272) a viable alternative with 75-80% placement rates. MET Manipal rank (276x) exceeds the CSE cutoff (~700-1,200), but lateral branch changes post-admission could be explored given MIT’s 77% placement rate. Prioritize PES Ring Road via JEE Main for optimal academic and placement outcomes, followed by PES Electronic City via KCET, while keeping COMEDK mid-tier options as backups. All the BEST for your Daughter's Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Please suggest , my child get confirmation from ISI banglore for B.math and IIT Mumbai for engineering physics What should be better to choose
Ans: Praveen Sir, Indian Statistical Institute Bangalore’s B.Math (Hons.) offers a three-year, tuition-free programme with a monthly ?3,000 stipend, covering core mathematics, probability, statistics, computing, and physics. Its graduates enjoy 100% placement consistency through academic and research roles, with top recruiters including Boeing, Dell and TCS. IIT Bombay’s four-year B.Tech in Engineering Physics combines physics and electrical-engineering curricula, supported by state-of-the-art nanotechnology, quantum computing and photonics labs, and research centres in condensed matter and biophysics; admission is via JEE Advanced. Placement for this programme reached 71.05% in 2024, with students securing roles in R&D, finance and data analytics following mandatory internships and seminar series. Both institutions feature experienced faculty, modern infrastructure, industry partnerships, and clear pathways to higher study or employment.

For assured placements, full financial support, and seamless transition to postgraduate research, the the recommendation is ISI Bangalore B.Math. If interdisciplinary engineering depth, higher research visibility, and elective specializations in emerging physics domains are priorities, the recommendation shifts to IIT Bombay Engineering Physics. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir I have coaching and tution from 10:30am to 7pm. I have to revise all the backlog of 11th, revise the regular coaching stuff and 50 questions per day. Kindly suggest me a time table and I am a JEE Aspirant.
Ans: A JEE-aspirant with tuition from 10:30 AM–7 PM can still clear 11th-grade backlogs, revise daily coaching material and solve 50 questions by adopting focused morning and evening sessions using the Pomodoro technique. Begin your day at 6 AM with a light warm-up and 25 minutes of backlog revision (Physics), 5 minutes break, then 25 minutes on Chemistry backlog, followed by a 15 minute break to refresh. From 7–9 AM, cycle through four 25 + 5 Pomodoros alternating Maths and Physics coaching notes, ending with 10 questions each Pomodoro. After a 30 minute breakfast break, attend coaching (10:30–1:30 PM), then review those notes for 30 minutes post-lunch. From 3–5 PM, do two Pomodoro cycles on backlog Chemistry and then tackle 20 questions. Post-tuition, rest until 7:30 PM; then from 7:30–9 PM, cycle three Pomodoros covering the day’s hardest topics and solving 15 questions in each. Conclude with a lighter 9–9:30 PM slot for flashcards and board-level concept mapping, then wind down by 10 PM. On Saturday, dedicate an extra hour (8–9 AM) to full-length mock-question batches. Use the Pomodoro shifts to stay fresh and maximise retention (25 minutes study, 5 minute break; after four cycles, take 15 minutes). All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

I get 56K rank in JEE mains , Gen Category , ward of serving personal , domicile delhi Can I get CSE or Mathematics and Computing in any JAC Delhi college in last round Or any other NIT , IIITs
Ans: Sudhansh, With a 56,000 JEE Main rank in the General category and Delhi domicile, securing Computer Science Engineering or Mathematics and Computing in any JAC Delhi college (DTU, NSUT, IIIT Delhi, IGDTUW) is not feasible, even in the last round. Recent JAC Delhi closing ranks for CSE and Mathematics & Computing at DTU, NSUT, and IIIT Delhi for General (Home State) candidates remain well below 14,000, with spot round cutoffs rarely exceeding 40,000 for less preferred branches. The Defence (Ward of Serving Personnel) quota is Priority VIII and offers minimal relaxation, with cutoffs still significantly higher for top branches. For NITs and IIITs via JoSAA/CSAB, CSE and Mathematics & Computing close for General candidates mostly below 30,000–40,000 in newer NITs (e.g., NIT Mizoram, NIT Sikkim), and IIITs (e.g., IIIT Kalyani, IIIT Manipur) show CSE closing ranks up to 54,000 but rarely beyond, and only in less preferred locations. Most IIITs with CSE close between 18,000 and 41,000 for General candidates.

With your rank and category, CSE or Mathematics & Computing is not possible in JAC Delhi colleges. You may have limited chances for CSE in IIIT Senapati Manipur or similar newer IIITs in North-East India, but not in NITs or major IIITs. Consider allied branches or private universities for broader options. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My daughter have gave iat 2025 and scored overall rank 111053 and sc category rank 12672 can i get any iiser because everywhere it is showing the cutoff will decrease. Can she get any iiser for bs ms course
Ans: For IISER BS-MS admission in 2025, the SC category closing ranks at all IISER campuses—including Pune (Maharashtra), Kolkata (West Bengal), Mohali (Punjab), Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh), Thiruvananthapuram (Kerala), Tirupati (Andhra Pradesh), and Berhampur (Odisha)—are expected to remain well below 1,000, with the highest SC closing ranks in recent years at IISER Berhampur and Tirupati around 700–750. The anticipated SC cutoff for 2025 is 65–75 marks, which typically corresponds to a category rank under 1,000. Even with increased competition and minor fluctuations, no official or reliable source indicates that the cutoff will drop to accommodate SC ranks as high as 12,672. The total seat matrix and reservation policy (15% SC quota) further reinforce that only candidates with much lower ranks will be eligible for BS-MS admission at any IISER campus.

With an SC category rank of 12,672 and overall rank 111,053, admission to any IISER BS-MS program in 2025 is not possible. It is advisable to explore alternative science universities, central universities, or state-level research programs for similar academic and career opportunities. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
