Career

Sir, I am currently in 12th and have taken PCM. I am interested in NDA, but I am unable to have alternate options after 12th. Please suggest some alternate career options in case I am unable to get through NDA.

Ans: You are interested in NDA. You have NOT mentioned whether you have joined any Coaching Center for the same. Please note, the UPSC has officially announced the schedule for the NDA & also for Naval Academy Exam. Application will start from 11th December and last date is 31st December. The exam will be held on 13th April, & the courses will commence in January 2026. It is advisable to prepare well for the exam due to competition. Also, please do not rely only on 1 entrance exam and most students commit the mistakes of appearing for 1-2 exams and then struggling to get admission. It is advisable to appear minimum for 5 entrance exams to have multiple options to choose the most suitable one. Better to appear also in CUET exam and other Private Colleges Entrance Exams in your State. Have Plan B & Plan C. (ONLY) if affordable by your parents, you can even try for Management Quota Seat with any one of the reputed colleges in your State/Location for the Branch in which you are interested. All the BEST for Your Bright Future.

I'm completed by 12 with PCMCS . Now I confused which career option I should go for .... NDA or Btech .. As an army officer life is good and stable but there is no career growth all in all ... But In btech if I work on my skills there is a good growth in career . But if I see in the next 10 years ... The number coders will also increase recession is also going on .... Wht should I do ...

Ans: There's a lot more to your question and the cause of your confusion needs to be understood??

Did you say life as an Army Officer or plan your career as a civilian,
Be ready for the challenges on both sides.. Life is not a bed of roses,thorns come along.

Do an aptitude test understand what you are ready for.. Life for the Nation NDA... Lives for the nation Btech!?

Your choice!

Career

Sir, I am currently in 12th and have taken PCM. I am interested in NDA, but I am unable to find alternate career options. Please suggest some career options in case I am unable to get through NDA.

Ans: Hello

You are in 12th and have taken PCM. One of the aims is to go for NDA but you are in a dilemma whether you will get it or not.
It would be suggestible for you that, please focus on the engineering entrance tests (either state or national level). Try to crack it. If not successful, then you try other options. To think of other options, you have ample time. Many career options can be easily explored after the 12th board + CET + JEE examinations. Please contact me after the exam is over. Based on the score (either good or bad) better options can be suggested to you. Best of luck with your upcoming examinations.

If you are dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
If satisfied, please like and follow me.
Thanks.

My daughter got a seat Manipal institute of technology bangalore with CSE core branch of engineering, is it good to proceed because it is started in the year of 2021 and new campus and fee is 5.5lack per annum or i got seat in amrita bangalore with CSE core branch of engineering with 1.5Lack per annum. Which one better sir

Ans: Please go for Amrita Bangalore with CSE core branch of engineering, money is hard earned. Manipal is not IIT/IIIT/NIT/Any famous Govt. Engineering College. So don't waste money. I am giving you a valuable advice, which will save your 4 X4 =16 Lakh rupees and that can be used for her MS from USA after B.Tech. No one will give you such a straight-forward advice. It is your money, I am not being benefitted. But since the question came to me I am giving you this very valuable counselling. My LINKEDIN details are shared with this advice. Best of luck. I am always there by the side of the children who need counselling. For placement of CSE branch don’t worry. I personally placed more than one students of CSE branch in reputed international companies. May GOD bless always. Prof. Suvasish Mukhopadhyay.
