Respected Sir, My son had scored around 93.5 percentile in JEE Mains & 196 in BITSAT in 1st attempt although appearing in June attemt too. He was not with full gear or in full form during preparation as only managed to cover course @85-90% syllabus & unable to with mock tests & PYQ or any sincere preparation since Feb'24. He scored 86.75% in CISCE & is now appearing in improvement examination around 1st/2nd week of this July, hopefully will bring it to around 95%. He is willing to & all set for preparation during drop year for admission in top 5/7 IIT'S MBDKK/GH or BITSAT for PGH. What is your sincere advise for this or drop year to him & for his preparation. Should he look in to other institution or courses as is only interested for CSE, M&C, ECE with AI, ML, DS, Cyber etc. only. He got ECE with AI&ML @ VIT,Villore Campus & CS with AI from Scaler School of Technology Bangalore. Both offers may end in couple of days although filled forms for CMI, IISER, NISER, NFSU-Cyber Security, ICSI Jadhavpur but unappeared in CMI & IISER & appeared for COMEDK & MAH-CET for now as results awaited & coming on 7th or a week time. Your Blessings RediffGurus. We extremely require your very sincere advise may proof tobe career journey to our son's future. Thanks & Regards
Ans: Hello Sir
if your son has scored this without any prep then he must be having a sharp mind. I don't know why board improvement? His score is decent.
Regarding drop, if he is confident that he can crack JEE-ADV with good rank & get a 99 %ile in mains then it is worth a try.

Hi, Sir. My son is taking admission in BMS College of Engineering, Banglore. It is best for ECE?. Please advise me. Thanks
Ans: Prasanna, B.M.S. College of Engineering’s Electronics & Communication Engineering programme is a NAAC A++–accredited, NBA Tier-I recognised course with a four-year curriculum and an expanded annual intake of 420 students, reflecting its commitment to meeting growing industry demand. The department maintains modern VLSI, embedded-systems, digital signal-processing and IoT labs, supported by a Siemens-backed Industry-4.0 centre and high-performance computing clusters, enabling hands-on learning and interdisciplinary projects. Faculty hold Ph.D. qualifications and lead active research in wireless communication, nanomaterials and AI-driven signal analytics, with over 350 research scholars across fourteen VTU-recognised centres. Over the past three years, ECE branch-wise placement consistency has ranged between 80% and 95%, driven by recruiters such as Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, Cisco, Infosys and Bosch, while robust alumni networks and corporate partnerships underpin strong internship pipelines and industry immersion. Outcome-based education, industry-aligned curricula and proactive upscaling of seats ensure both academic rigour and broad access for aspiring electronics engineers.

Recommendation: With its top-tier accreditation, cutting-edge laboratories, growing student intake, and sustained placement record, the recommendation is to proceed with ECE at BMSCE as a strong foundation for core-electronics and emerging IoT/AI roles; complement coursework with certification courses and active participation in departmental research clusters to maximise employability. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir, my son is getting in iit goa cse, iiit bangalore cse, nit surathkal ece and rvce cse. Pls give the preference order.
Ans: Katikala Madam, All four institutes excel in accreditation, faculty expertise, infrastructure, industry linkages, and placement consistency. IIT Goa’s CSE department, backed by NAAC A++ accreditation, features dedicated AI and cloud labs and records a 90.7% BTech placement rate in 2024 with recruiters like Adobe, Siemens, and Google. IIIT Bangalore (NAAC A+) offers state-of-the-art high-performance computing and data-science facilities, achieving an average CSE placement consistency of approximately 84% over the last three years, with top recruiters such as Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft. NIT Surathkal’s ECE programme, an Institute of National Importance with NBA accreditation, maintains specialized VLSI and signal-processing labs and has achieved branch-wise ECE placement rates of 96.4% in 2023 and 72.7% in 2024, drawing recruiters like Microsoft, Samsung, and Qualcomm. RVCE’s CSE (NAAC A+) boasts modern cybersecurity and IoT labs and demonstrates a three-year CSE placement average around 88% (93% in 2023, 75% in 2024), with key hires from Cisco, PayPal, and Qualcomm. Institute reputation steers global recognition: IIT Goa and IIIT Bangalore offer strong national eminence, NIT Surathkal affords robust core engineering tradition, and RVCE provides urban industry access and alumni networks.

Recommendation: Prioritize IIIT Bangalore CSE for its sustained placement consistency and premier industry ties; next, choose IIT Goa CSE for cutting-edge AI labs and rising placement rates; follow with NIT Surathkal ECE for established core-electronics strength; and select RVCE CSE last for its urban internships and solid recruiter diversity. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

There are some councellor who give priority to government Engineering college over private. Nit's and IIIT'S are new in market in our time when I became an engineer there where no such government colleges if I am not wrong and every one use to be mad about Bangalore colleges like MSRIT, SIT, BMS BIT . They say private colleges are for for those who get less percentage and for children's who are from affluent family and students who wants to waste their parents money. Some of the few IIIT'S and nit's are in such a remote place that any parent would think twice before sending his child over there. I am so confused what to do my child is getting TEIR 1 IIIT'S and TEIR 3 NIT'S and top private engineering colleges with good facilities and better City. So am i wrong if I choose DAIICT, MSRIT, BMS over IIIT'S and NIT'S??
Ans: Government engineering schools like IITs, NITs, and IIITs are recognized as important institutions with direct funding from the central government and the freedom to manage themselves, which helps them maintain high academic standards, follow top international course guidelines, and support strong research programs as set by laws made by Parliament. Getting accredited by NAAC (for the whole institution) and NBA (for specific programs) ensures that these institutes keep improving their quality, are accountable to their stakeholders, and gain international recognition through agreements like the Washington Accord, while also requiring them to participate in NIRF for transparency in their results. These institutions maintain extensive laboratories—spanning high-voltage, clean-room, sensor networks, composites, AI/ML and pilot-plant facilities—and prioritize outcome-based learning, industry-ready internships, and faculty with robust Ph.D. and industry credentials. Their placement consistency routinely exceeds 85–95% for core branches, bolstered by alumni networks and nationalized recruiter tie-ups across PSUs, Fortune 500 firms, and global R&D hubs. In contrast, established private colleges such as DAIICT, MSRIT, and BMS BIT deliver student-centric environments with modern campuses, focused specializations, flexible electives, and strong corporate partnerships within urban centers. They offer competitive placement cells yielding 80–90% branch-wise offers, agile curricula aligned to emerging domains (e.g., data science, fintech, cybersecurity), and scholarship schemes tailored to merit and need. While private institutes may incur higher fees, they often compensate with smaller cohorts, industry?embedded projects, and vibrant campus life. Geographic location and city?level opportunities influence internships and student well?being, making metropolitan campuses appealing for networking and soft?skill development. Recognize the enduring value of government institutes for foundational research, global rankings, and subsidized excellence while acknowledging private colleges’ strengths in specialized curricula, urban connectivity, and agile pedagogy. Choose an IIIT/NIT seat if your child values research freedom, strong accreditation, and a good national reputation; if not, opt for top private colleges like DAIICT, MSRIT, or BMS BIT for their specialized programs, connections to local industries, and reliable job placement rates. Ensure choice reflects both institutional quality and your child’s long-term goals. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!
