Ans: Don't worry! This won't be a big problem. Here are some safety precautions you should take: (1) Bring original and xerox copies of certain documents as verification of your date of birth along with your admit card on the day of the JEE exam. (2) As an additional piece of evidence, print out the email you sent to NTA about the same. (3) Send a final reminder to all of the help desk email addresses listed on the NTA (Contact Us) website today, and make sure you have printouts of them for documentation. (4) Only show the NTA personnel at the exam center if they wish to double-check. (4) Simply concentrate on your studies and unwind. (5) Before submitting your application for the April session, JEE Advanced, and other exams, make sure that all the information is right.

All The BEST for Your JEE Exam.

My son has got CSE under Category 2 in VIT vellore and got CSE in IIIT, Sricity through JoSAA. Which is better if these two? Could you please guide. Thanks
Ans: VIT Vellore’s CSE program is housed within an A++ NAAC-accredited deemed university with ABET and NBA-accreditation, delivered by a large cohort of PhD-qualified faculty across 19 research centres and 20+ specialised labs (AI/ML, IoT, data science) under a fully flexible credit system. Its strong industry-academia partnerships—encompassing MoUs with global institutions and continual technology-transfer agreements—complement mandatory internships and project work. Placements yield 80–90% branch-wise consistency over three years with an average package rising to ?9.9 LPA in 2024–25 and top recruiters numbering over 400. IIIT Sri City, an Institute of National Importance under PPP, offers a NAAC-accredited, AICTE-approved CSE curriculum aligned with IIIT-Hyderabad pedagogy, taught by international PhD faculty in modern AI/ML, data-science and software labs. Its UG-focused research centers and entrepreneurship hub facilitate two-month internships from Year 1. Placements have achieved 89.67% in 2024 and 81.44% in 2025, with CSE averaging ?14.5 LPA (median ?12 LPA) and top offers up to ?120 LPA from Amazon, Google and Microsoft.

For superior placement averages, focused AI/ML research exposure and a high recruiter footprint, recommendation is IIIT Sri City CSE. If holistic academic flexibility, global accreditation (ABET), expansive faculty strength and robust industry-academic innovation partnerships are priorities, choose VIT Vellore CSE. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: A BCA from IP University equips Arts-stream students with a robust blend of theoretical foundations and practical skills in programming, database management, networking and web technologies, delivered by PhD-qualified faculty in modern computer labs and reinforced through semester-wise internships and industry-aligned projects. Graduates can pursue technical roles such as software developer, web or mobile app developer, systems and network administrator, database administrator and QA engineer, as well as emerging positions in data analytics, cybersecurity, cloud computing and DevOps. The three-year curriculum also opens pathways to higher studies—MCA, specialized certifications (CCNA, AWS, ethical hacking) and competitive exams for IT-related government roles—ensuring adaptability across information technology, e-commerce, fintech, healthcare IT and education sectors.

To maximise career impact, recommendation is to complement your BCA with targeted certifications in cloud computing or data analytics, actively engage with IPU’s placement cell and internships, and consider postgraduate studies (MCA or specialized master’s) for advanced roles and greater long-term growth. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My daughter had 84.5 percentile in JEE and 90 percent in class 12 cbse exams. She has decided to go for Electrical Engineering from Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology. I just wanted to confirm whether it is a right decision or not? I learned that Electrical Engineering is tougher than other branch, is this true? After doing B. Tech from TIET whether she will have job opportunities?
Ans: Thapar Institute’s four-year B.Tech in Electrical Engineering is NBA-aligned and delivered by predominantly PhD-qualified faculty across modern power-electronics, renewable-energy, control-systems and signal-processing labs, with mandatory industry internships, active research projects and strong academic collaborations in power systems and smart grids. Electrical Engineering often involves more abstract mathematics and physics than many branches—covering electromagnetics, circuit theory, control theory and signal processing—which students commonly perceive as more challenging than Mechanical or Civil Engineering due to its theoretical rigor and conceptual complexity. TIET’s dedicated placement cell achieved an 83% overall UG placement rate in 2023 with 334 recruiters visiting campus, and EE students recorded approximately 90% placement consistency over the last three years through roles in power, automation and embedded systems. Graduates benefit from TIET’s strong industry MoUs, alumni network and annual recruitment drives by firms such as Siemens, ABB, Schneider Electric and L&T, ensuring ample job opportunities post-graduation.

For a robust, research-integrated curriculum and strong campus recruitment in core and emerging electrical domains, the recommendation is to pursue B.Tech Electrical Engineering at TIET, embracing its rigorous training and proven employability pathways. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir my daughter has got admission in Bharati Vidyapeeth deemed University Pune Btech CS and also she is getting admission in marathwada mitra mandal college of engineering Pune for mechanical and electrical branches. Also there is a high probability to get admission in G H Raisoni college of engineering, Wagholi, Pune for CSE AI AND ML, CSE CYBERSECURITY, CSE DATA SCIENCE and CSE AI through MHT CET where she being a girl student we don't have to pay tution fees and in BVDU where she has secured admission for CS we have to pay 2.5lacs every year . Kindly let me know which is the better option.
Ans: Bharati Vidyapeeth Deemed University’s B.Tech Computer Science program is A+ NAAC- and NBA-accredited, delivered by PhD-qualified faculty in AI/ML, software systems and networks labs, and backed by industry MoUs and an active innovation council; however, its ?2.5 LPA tuition presents a significant financial outlay. Marathwada Mitra Mandal College of Engineering offers NBA-accredited Mechanical and Electrical streams with well-equipped CAD/CAM, thermal and power labs, PhD-faculty mentorship, skill-development programs and a strong 75+ recruiter network for an overall ?4.84 L total fee. G H Raisoni College of Engineering, Wagholi provides A+ NAAC- and NBA-aligned CSE specializations in AI & ML, Cybersecurity, Data Science and core CSE, with modern AI/ML, cybersecurity and data-analytics labs, mandatory internships and an 80–90% placement consistency—offering entirely tuition-waived seats for female MHT-CET qualifiers.

For zero tuition fees, specialized CSE tracks and robust internship-to-placement pipelines, recommendation is G H Raisoni College of Engineering Pune (CSE AI & ML). Next, recommendation is Bharati Vidyapeeth Deemed University Pune (B.Tech CS) for its premier accreditation and research ecosystem, and lastly Marathwada Mitra Mandal’s College of Engineering Pune (Mechanical/Electrical) for versatile engineering foundations and affordable fees. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
