Best colleges for core cse with 90% marks in 12 board and jee 60%

Ans: Parna, With 90% in 12th boards and 60% in JEE Main, admission to core CSE in top government colleges like IITs and NITs is highly unlikely, as their cutoffs for CSE are much higher and require top JEE ranks. However, you have strong prospects in leading private universities such as VIT Vellore, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Shiv Nadar University, SASTRA, and RV College of Engineering, provided you had appeared for & performed well in their respective entrance exams. These institutes offer robust CSE programs, excellent campus infrastructure, and strong placement records with leading tech companies. Universities like SAITM, Chandigarh University, UPES, LPU, Chitkara and Amity also offer accessible CSE admissions based on board marks or their own entrance tests and are good alternatives if you seek a reputable degree with good placements. Recommendation: Focus on applying to top private universities with their own entrance exams, where your board marks make you eligible. Prepare well for these tests to maximize your chances for CSE. If you prefer government colleges, consider state universities with lower cutoffs or alternative admission routes. Prioritize institutes with strong placement records and industry connections for the best career prospects in CSE. All the best for your admission and a bright future!

Hello sir, my son's rank in jee mains rank 25156 he got admission in electrical in silchar in josaa round, not in csab 1st round he got mechanical in kurushetra nit and he got admission in bits pillani rajeshthan for manufacturing engineering sir we are confused that whether we have to wait for 2nd and 3rd rounds in csab or he has good prospect in bits ,please guide us for good prospect for my son
Ans: Your son’s admission options include Electrical Engineering at NIT Silchar through JoSAA, Mechanical Engineering at NIT Kurukshetra via CSAB Round 1, and Manufacturing Engineering at BITS Pilani. NIT Silchar’s Electrical branch shows consistent placement rates around 80% with top recruiters like Amazon, offering average packages near Rs 12 LPA. NIT Kurukshetra’s Mechanical branch has an approximate 80% placement rate, with major industrial recruiters and average packages in the Rs 7.5-8.2 LPA range. BITS Pilani, known for its exceptional academic environment and strong industry connections, particularly excels in placements with nearly 90-100% of students placed, offering average packages in the range of Rs 18-20 LPA. Its manufacturing engineering branch benefits from this robust ecosystem despite lack of specific branch-wise data. Considering academic reputation, faculty quality, infrastructure, placement opportunities, and alumni network, BITS Pilani provides the most promising overall prospects. NIT Silchar and NIT Kurukshetra have good regional standing and opportunities but comparatively moderate placement outcomes.

The recommendation is to prioritize admission at BITS Pilani for Manufacturing Engineering due to superior placement outcomes, institutional prestige, and strong industry ties. If BITS is not preferred or feasible, NIT Silchar (Electrical) is a better option than NIT Kurukshetra (Mechanical). Waiting for further CSAB rounds is only advisable if aiming for significantly better branches or colleges aligned with your son’s rank. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
