Hi Sir,my son is in 8th std.i have put hin in iit foundation course,since he has interest and want to study in iit.But he is scoring only 75 to 85% in his foundation exams.shall i continue him in the same course or move him to regular Cbse .

Ans: Every student is unique; choose the path that aligns with his learning style and aspirations.
While your son’s current scores are in the 75-85% range, remember that foundation courses aim to improve thinking ability and conceptual understanding, whereas CBSE syllabus may be less intense than IIT foundation courses.
Its a great to start in leading time for IIT, more involvement will clear his doubts & increase the focus for aim, and also encourage your son to explore his passion and choose the path.

Sir, my son got 92% in 12 cbse this year. And 96.2%ile in jee mains(crl rank=56464,ews rank=7944). He cracked VIT also (rank=18438).He is interested in cs branch.He is 17 year old(7-11-2007). Should he drop 1 year for IIT or take admission in VIT. Kindly guide. He is in confusion.

Ans: Hello Ramesh
Regrettably, we are unable to offer forecasts about the admission and counseling processes for VIT and comparable institutions. Please reach out to the administration of VIT as well as the counseling services. There is no requirement to take a gap year for universities such as VIT. However, if you are quite certain regarding your readiness and possess patience concerning From the perspective of IIT, you might consider the option to take a drop in your studies. A number of students complete this exercise, and a few of them have achieved success as well. You could be one of them. However, consider carefully multiple times before making a choice to take a break.
Best of luck to you.

Dating, Relationships Expert - Answered on Jun 04, 2025

Asked by Anonymous - May 22, 2025

Relationship

Sir, I am 24, I have recently started using dating apps, and I'm already bored. Most guys just want casual chatting or they disappear after talking for a few days. First they say I really like you, then they ignore me. I get my hopes up and end up feeling used. My parents have started looking for rishtas and say I'm wasting time. I want a real relationship, but I don't want to rush into arranged marriage either. Am I being unrealistic?

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand your frustration. Finding love on dating apps, just like dating IRL, can sometimes take a little longer. Everyone finds their perfect match in their own time. I understand it must be frustrating, but stick on with it. For the time being, have fun interacting with new people. Do not set an intention that you are there just to find true love. It will reduce your experience to a routine. Dating should be fun. And love cannot be rushed. I am sure you will find someone who truly likes you in no time. And no, you are not being unrealistic. Loads of people have found their life partners on dating apps.
Best wishes.
