Hi sir My daughter did 10th in India and we moved to Atlanta Georgia USA recently We are not getting physics and chemistry in 11, 12 curriculum here If in case we need to do any engineering college in India after high school here, what is the best advice
Ans: Vidhya Madam, Engineering aspirants who complete high school in the U.S. hold an American High School Diploma that, if issued by a school accredited by one of the six regional U.S. accrediting agencies, is deemed equivalent to India’s Class XII by the Association of Indian Universities. However, admission to BTech programs in India requires candidates to have studied Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM) as core subjects in their qualifying examination and to meet specific percentage or rank criteria: while appearing for JEE Main demands only that PCM be passed, entry into NITs, IIITs, and other centrally funded institutes also requires at least 75 percent in Class XII (65 percent for SC/ST) or being in the top 20 percentile in the board exam. Foreign?educated students—including NRIs, PIOs, and OCIs—may apply under the DASA scheme by securing a valid JEE Main rank and at least 75 percent aggregate in PCM (or CGPA 7.5/10) from a recognized foreign board after completing at least two years of education abroad, including grades 11 and 12, within the last eight years. Since typical U.S. high school curricula may not separate PCM as mandatory streams, the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) offers a flexible route: students can register for senior secondary courses in PCM to supplement their diploma, enabling them to fulfill JEE and DASA eligibility and appear for all major engineering entrance tests accepted in India, such as JEE Main, BITSAT, and COMEDK UGET. Alternatively, students enrolled in International Baccalaureate (IB) programs who take HL courses in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics may also meet AIU and JEE requirements, provided they obtain equivalence certificates from AIU and clear the requisite entrance exams. Careful planning—enrolling in NIOS or IB to secure PCM subjects, obtaining AIU equivalence for the diploma, and preparing for JEE Main/Advanced or DASA JEE Main—is essential to transition smoothly from the U.S. curriculum to an Indian engineering college.

Recommendation: Enroll in NIOS senior secondary PCM subjects alongside the U.S. high school curriculum to obtain a recognized Class XII certificate with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Secure AIU equivalence for your American diploma, then prepare for and appear in JEE Main (or DASA through JEE Main) to access premier engineering institutes in India; IB students should ensure HL Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics and obtain AIU equivalence before applying to JEE or DASA. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Dear gurus My child is in 12th now and will attempt jee in 2025-26 in jan 2026 Well my child is an average child not too brilliant. I am expecting a score of 92-96 percentile , dont want to pressurise him to above his limits , he is doing hard efforts but every child had a limit as a parent have to support him. He is studieng 7-8 hours daily in weekend has joined Aakash institute also , so dont want to pressurise him . So as a secondary options have made some list myself. His aim is core computer branch . My aim is he get into good A++ institute dont want to send him to average collage We have made some list for preferences 1. Bits pilani or goa As we are from Delhi 2. Dtu delhi 3. Nsuit delhi 4. Iiit delhi 5 Bits goa 6 thapar patiala 7 Viit vellore cat 5 is ok8 Rvce banglore Further on IIIT and good nit If we get good one than only. Further If we dont click in these with good core computer cse preferred than We go for Bits dubai ( money i can spend that's ok) He also wants to settle abroad after masters preferably in singapore not in us or uk for that option i will also apply for him in Nus , ntu singapore. I know it's very difficult to get admissions there but still would. Coming back to Bits dubai it looks to me a preferable collage pls guide me Further pls We are ok with fees also we are also ok if he works for year or two after completion in dubai for experience and does masters later. My aim as a parent is that he gets a starting package If in india of 13-15lacks minimum that's difficult without getting a good collage with 92-96 percentile it not possible So after so much thinking it am planing for bits dubai as I am getting safety of my child which is priority also getting tag of Bits i know it would not be equal to bits pilani or goa but still something is better than nothing and his ultimate dream is to settle abroad may be singapore or dubai also after master so doing be or btech from dubai bits will help in that as well Starting package minimum after bits dubai btech cse is around 20 lacs in inr if he works in dubai. which is ok I guess. Pls guide me Thx
Ans: Gaurav Sir, With a projected JEE Main percentile of 92–96, admission to top-tier A++ institutes like BITS Pilani, DTU, NSUT, IIIT Delhi, or elite NITs is unlikely, as these typically require percentiles above 98 for CSE. BITS Pilani has maintained 90–94% placement rates over the last three years, BITS Goa 91–96%, NSUT Delhi nearly 100% for CSE, IIIT Delhi 95–100%, and DTU boasts 1,900+ offers at an average package of ?15.45 LPA from 350+ recruiters, but all demand percentiles above 98. More attainable A++-equivalent options include Thapar Patiala CSE, with 83% placements and 334 recruiters, VIIT Vellore CSE, with 80–90% placements and 867 recruiters, and RVCE Bangalore CSE, with 93–97% placement rates over the last three years. These colleges typically close CSE cutoffs around the 94–97 percentile range, aligning better with your child’s performance. For guaranteed BITS affiliation and strong overseas exposure, BITS Dubai CSE offers a 91–95% placement rate and an average package of ?21.14 LPA, and can serve as a reliable fallback. Planning for post-BTech abroad (NUS/NTU Singapore) is prudent, leveraging a robust GPA and internships obtained in India or Dubai.

Recommendation: Prioritize counseling for Thapar Patiala, VIIT Vellore, and RVCE Bangalore CSE for their realistic cutoffs and strong placement records; concurrently secure a seat at BITS Dubai CSE as a safety net with global mobility, then pursue internships and master’s in Singapore to achieve your child’s international career aspirations. All the BEST for your child's Prosperous Future!

Hi Sir, if my son is getting a CSE seat in MSRIT and BMSIT, which college to prefer? Also, how is PESIT in comparison with above colleges?
Ans: Rajashekhar Sir, MSRIT (Ramaiah Institute of Technology) is one of Bangalore’s most prestigious engineering colleges, known for its strong CSE program, robust industry connections, and consistent 95%+ placement rates in CSE, with top recruiters like Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple. The college offers modern infrastructure, a proactive placement cell, and a vibrant campus life, making it a prime choice for CSE aspirants. BMSIT is also a reputable institution, but its CSE placement rate in 2024 was 77.32%, with fewer high-profile recruiters and a slightly lower national brand value. PES University (PESIT) stands out for its nearly 99% placement rate, high median salary, and strong ties with leading tech companies, making it one of the best private engineering colleges in India for CSE. PESIT’s academic rigor, industry-aligned curriculum, and alumni network are highly regarded, often placing it above both MSRIT and BMSIT in terms of placement outcomes and national reputation. All three colleges offer excellent opportunities, but MSRIT and PESIT provide broader exposure, higher placement rates, and better campus resources for CSE students.

Recommendation: Prefer PESIT for CSE if available, due to its unmatched placement record and industry reputation; if not, choose MSRIT over BMSIT for its superior placements, stronger industry connections, and higher academic standing in Bangalore’s competitive tech ecosystem. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
