Hii sir muje aaose puchhna hai mere bete ne ssc kiboard ki exam fi hai aage ki padhai k bare me thoda confuse hai hambe dmit bhi karvaya ...to dmit k councelar ne hame science stram lene se mana kar diya hai aur engineering me bhi dalne se mana kiya hame use cse diploma me karvana chahte the lekin councelar ne commers aur arts me jane ki salah di hai dmit test par kitna trust karna chahiye kya kare
Ans: Uday Sir, thank you for reaching RediffGURU. Your concern is completely valid — and many parents face the same confusion after 10th, especially after taking a DMIT test. Let me explain everything in a clear and practical way: DMIT (Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence Test) is based on fingerprint patterns and claims to assess a child’s inborn talents, personality, and learning style. While it can give some general insights, it is not scientifically proven and should not be the sole basis for career decisions. However, to some extent, Psychometric Test will be more helpful, compared to DMIT, providing some suitable career options for your son. So, use DMIT as a guidance tool, not as the final decision-maker. What Should You Focus on Instead? His Interest + Aptitude + Effort — These matter more than any test. Look at your son's performance in Maths, Science, English, etc. during SSC. Has he shown any interest in: Coding or Computers? Business or Finance? Design or Creativity? Communication or Language? Based on this, you/he can help select the right stream (Engineering | Medical | Commerce | Arts-Humanities) or he prefers Diploma (like CSE Diploma after 10th) if he's not confident about handling 11th-12th Science, then a diploma in Computer Engineering (CSE) is a good alternative. After 3 years of diploma, he can join 2nd year of Engineering (B.E/B.Tech) through lateral entry. But again, it should be based on his interest in technology or computers — not pressure.

Talk to your son — ask what he enjoys or dreams about. Use DMIT + school marks + family guidance together to decide. Don’t choose a stream only because “DMIT said so” or “log kya kahenge.” All the best for your Son's Bright Future!

Sir My jee rank was not that good..I have some queries..cna u pls assist me what's the difference between bsc cs and btech cse..and would they lead to same career path and options.. Also if I choose to go with btech then..should I choose srm sonepat or not..I have planned to do msc abroad
Ans: Javin, B.Sc. Computer Science is a three-year, theory-driven program emphasizing algorithms, computation theory and foundational mathematics, suited for research, data analysis or academic roles, whereas B.Tech. in Computer Science & Engineering spans four years with a balanced mix of hardware, software and engineering fundamentals, offering intensive lab work, industry internships, and project-based learning that prepare graduates for system design, software development and emerging technology roles. Both degrees can lead to software engineering, data science, and cybersecurity careers, but B.Tech. holders often access core engineering positions and higher placement rates, while B.Sc. graduates may pivot more readily into research-oriented master’s or academic tracks. Considering SRM University Delhi-NCR Sonepat for B.Tech. CSE, the programme is delivered in a NAAC-accredited institution with over 315 recruiters visiting annually and a 95 percent placement consistency, supported by modern computing labs and structured career services. For planned MSc studies abroad, admissions typically require a four-year engineering or science degree with substantial computer-science content, a competitive GRE score (if required), proof of English proficiency (IELTS/TOEFL) and strong academic references; B.Tech. CSE aligns smoothly with these criteria, ensuring eligibility and facilitating conversion to research-focused master’s programmes.

Recommendation:
Opt for B.Tech. CSE at SRM Sonepat to benefit from industry-aligned curriculum, high placement consistency and robust lab exposure, then pursue an MSc abroad leveraging the recognised four-year engineering degree, structured admissions prerequisites and extensive global opportunities in advanced computing and research. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My daughter got PhD in Pharmacology admission both at Lovely Professional University Phagwara & JSS College of Pharmacy Ooty Tamil Nadu. Can you guide us which one is better? Which one to choose & why?
Ans: Lovely Professional University’s doctoral programme in Pharmacology operates within a NAAC-accredited private university that administers its own LPUNEST entrance test and offers substantial scholarship support based on merit . The three-year full-time curriculum encompasses core research methodology, publication ethics and advanced electives, supplemented by interdisciplinary minors and industry-interface modules that facilitate collaborations with pharmaceutical companies. Research scholars benefit from well-equipped pre-clinical and clinical evaluation laboratories, a centralized animal house and access to LPU’s Centre for Biomedical Research. A robust placement pathway connects candidates to roles in drug safety, pharmacovigilance and regulatory affairs, leveraging the university’s corporate partnerships and regular campus recruitment drives. Despite its relative youth, LPU maintains a dedicated Career Development Centre and reports a consistent placement rate for life-sciences graduates through structured internship pipelines and research-fellowship opportunities .

JSS College of Pharmacy, Ooty, established in 1980 and part of JSS Academy of Higher Education & Research, stands among the top five pharmacy institutions nationally, holding NAAC A+ accreditation and a #4 NIRF pharmacy ranking . Its Department of Pharmacology—active since 1988—provides doctoral candidates with specialized training in pharmacology and toxicology tracks, supported by CSIR-, DBT- and AICTE-funded research projects worth over ?3 crore. The college features a CPCSEA-approved centralized animal house, advanced instrumentation (FT-IR, microwave synthesizer, molecular modeling suites) and round-the-clock research facilities. Extensive MoUs with leading R&D organizations and a NABL-accredited drug-testing laboratory underpin strong industry linkages, while its placement cell sustains an over 80% placement consistency for postgraduate and doctoral scholars, facilitating roles in academia, regulatory bodies, and pharmaceutical R&D .

Recommendation:
For a well-established research environment with extensive funding, high national ranking, and deep industry connections in pharmacological sciences, JSS College of Pharmacy, Ooty offers the stronger platform. However, if scholarship opportunities, interdisciplinary minors, and a growing placement infrastructure are priorities, Lovely Professional University remains a compelling alternative. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hi. My son is getting VJTI B Tech IT and also BITS Hyderabad campus MSc Chem + B Tech (Dual Degree) What choice should we go for ?
Ans: VJTI Mumbai’s B.Tech in Information Technology operates within a historic, NAAC A-accredited government institute, supported by experienced faculty, modern software and networking labs, an 82 percent overall placement rate (85 percent for IT) over the past three years and strong industry partnerships with leading IT firms. It requires 10+2 with PCM and English and selection via MHT-CET cutoff and counselling. In contrast, BITS Hyderabad’s five-year Integrated M.Sc.(Hons.) in Chemistry + B.E. programme admits students through BITSAT (75 percent aggregate in 10+2 and minimum 60 percent in PCM), immerses them in advanced chemistry and engineering curricula, and allows conversion to the dual degree after the first year based on top-tier CGPA performance; Group C admits may pursue any dual degree within specified limits. Graduates benefit from practice school training, interdisciplinary research projects and placement consistency around 80 percent in chemical and engineering streams. Risks include rigorous workload during dual-degree years, competitive CGPA criteria for continuation and potential difficulty shifting back if performance thresholds are not met.

Recommendation:
For a clear, focused start in a high-placement IT domain with defined eligibility and minimal academic risk, choose VJTI B.Tech IT. Opt for BITS Hyderabad M.Sc. Chemistry + B.Tech if your son seeks a research-integrated, multidisciplinary pathway and excels under high academic rigor with dual-degree ambitions. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
