B.Tech Food Tech vs. B.Tech Biotechnology: Which One Should I Choose?

Ans: HI MANN,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!

Considering your percentile, securing admission will be quite challenging. I recommend exploring other NFSU campuses or colleges in Gujarat.

If you want to secure a seat at NFSU, make sure to register for the NFAT. Focus on performing well on the exam to maximize your chances of success.

Plan accordingly.

BEST WISHES.

Ans: Girish, I am not able to relate to the number. Please give his exact scores in Class XII and ranks in JEE.

Ans: Congrats Satyam for this score. I would put Harcourt Butler Tech University, a very prestigious institution in the the State, and Computer Science branch more in the aspirational and dream institution category even in the third round. My suggestion is to widen the list of institutions to at least 10. Also opt for other branches like electrical, mechanical.

Ans: Hello, Congrats on your son's JEE Mains score of 89550. Or is the OBC non-creamy layer score? Is my assumption correct? DO LET ME KNOW POST HASTE. If this the overall score then your has a good chance of securing admission in lesser known NITs, newer IIITs as also in the government funded technical institutions. By narrowing down your choices of institutions near Chandigarh--closer home --may not be a good idea.

Ans: Chances of getting into Mathematics & Computing (M&C) Engineering at top colleges are slim, but you may get it in some newer or lower IIITs or state/private colleges through counselling. Keep M&C as an ambitious option and include CSE/IT/ECE backups too.

Good luck.

Ans: Chances at top NITs are very slim. But she may have some chance at lower/mid NITs or newer NITs for CSE/IT, depending on exact JoSAA cutoffs and round movement. Consider other lower branches for better chances of admission in further rounds.

Good luck.

Ans: Sarita Madam, I noticed you haven’t mentioned your daughter’s home state. Please note that BITS requires a minimum of 250 marks even for its MSc programs and above 300 marks for BE programs. Also, all branches are good; initially, she should choose a branch based on her interest or passion. However, she should remain adaptable as her preferences or job market trends may change by the 2nd or 3rd year. Regarding your daughter’s score, admission to NITs, IIITs, or top-tier GFTIs is unlikely. For general-category female candidates, even CSE-lite branches in newer IIITs usually require ranks under approximately 1.5 to 2.5 lakh. Still, it is advisable to register for JoSAA and CSAB-SPOT for possible core-branch or self-finance options in lesser-known GFTIs. Additionally, state counseling is important for government-aided colleges.

As a backup, consider reputed private engineering colleges in and around your state rather than relying solely on JoSAA or CSAB. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

Ans: Based on your daughter's score, she can target MNNIT Allahabad: 2024 JoSAA HS OPEN female Mechanical closed around 30,734, so she has a fair chance; Production/Industrial and Materials are safer. Chemical at MNNIT may be tougher under available data, but fill it above Mechanical. Also fill MNIT Jaipur Chemical/Civil, NIT Kurukshetra Mechanical/Civil/Electrical as stretch, and NIT Jalandhar Chemical/Mechanical; 2024 data shows these branches often close beyond 24.5k for female/OS or comparable quotas. Also fill MNIT Jaipur Chemical/Civil, NIT Kurukshetra Mechanical/Civil/Electrical as stretch, and NIT Jalandhar Chemical/Mechanical; 2024 data shows these branches often close beyond 24.5k for female/Other State or comparable quotas. For IIITs, top IIIT Allahabad IT/ECE is unlikely at 24.5k, but include lower IIITs/GFTIs in CSAB. Your daughter must also have the following backups: Thapar, LNMIIT, Jaypee Noida, (Shiv Nadar, Manipal, and VIT - North India Campuses.) Prioritize MNNIT tag if higher studies are the plan for your daughter. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!
