Sir, my daughter is doing her 12th now, she is aiming to get into IITs , NITs, BITS , IIITs for CS or any engineering which can make her enter into IT industry in future. Which IITs, NITs and IIITs can we prefer, we are from Chennai.
Ans: Your daughter is aspiring to gain admission to one of the IITs, NITs, BITS, or IIITs. The campus selection for your daughter will depend on the Percentile/AIR she achieves. To gain admission to a top IIT, NIT, or IIIT for the CSE branch, a minimum score of 99.00 percentile in JEE-Main is required, along with an All India Rank (AIR) below 1000 in JEE Advanced. For admission to the Pilani Campus of BITS, a minimum score of 330 out of 390 is required. In addition to JEE and BITSAT, she is eligible to take COMEDK to aim for one of the top three colleges in Bengaluru or Karnataka. I hope your daughter is attending her JEE coaching sessions. It is recommended to participate in 5-7 entrance examinations to ensure a range of options, rather than depending solely on JEE and BITSAT. Some strategies to enhance performance in JEE, BITSAT, and COMEDK examinations. (1) She should review the questions she answered incorrectly or skipped in the Mock Tests and Practice Tests she has completed to date, whether at the Coaching Center or at home, and practice them thoroughly. (2) She should familiarize herself with 20-40 previous years' JEE Question papers. (3) She should begin revising 11th Grade Chaptesr. (4) Consistent and regular revision is essential. (5) Additionally, she should practice time-bound online mock tests or test series to assess her speed and accuracy. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future.

My son has secured a seat in Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering at MIT Manipal with a rank of 12.2k in MET. He has also secured a seat in Mechanical Engineering at VIT Vellore under fee category 3. Which one should we prefer? Interest and fee is not a problem as my son has no particular inclination towards any field.
Ans: Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering at MIT Manipal is preferable over Mechanical Engineering at VIT Vellore under fee category 3, as MIT Manipal offers a more modern, multidisciplinary curriculum with strong industry relevance in automation, control, and electronics, supported by state-of-the-art labs and a placement rate above 90% for related branches, with top recruiters from both core and IT sectors participating regularly. Mechanical Engineering at VIT Vellore, while offered at a reputable institution, currently has a lower placement rate of around 50%, with many students opting for non-core roles and fewer opportunities in core mechanical sectors. Both colleges provide excellent infrastructure and campus life, but MIT Manipal’s Electronics and Instrumentation program stands out for its higher placement percentage, broader career scope in emerging technologies, and robust academic ecosystem. The recommendation is to choose Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering at MIT Manipal for better placement prospects and future adaptability. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
