Ans: Thank you for getting in touch with me on Rediff Gurus. Your daughter has a strong educational background in finance, management & technology, and she should now expand her job search beyond online job portals by exploring company websites, industry-specific job boards, and professional associations. Encourage her to target specific companies or industries where her skills and experience are in demand and ask her to follow up on job applications with personalized messages expressing her interest and enthusiasm. While searching for a permanent position, she may also consider temporary or freelance work in her field. It will provide valuable experience, expand her network, and potentially lead to full-time opportunities. She can get work on websites like LinkedIn, Upwork, Freelancer, and Flex Jobs which offers freelance opportunities in finance, consulting, and technology. By leveraging her skills, network, and resources better, your daughter can increase her chances of finding a rewarding job opportunity that aligns with her career aspirations and goals. Please motivate her to stay focused on her core expertise, and keep moving forward in her job search journey. If you have any specific questions or need further advice, feel free to ask me on Rediff Gurus

Hello Sir, My daughter got IIIT Jabalpur CS. Chances of getting IIIT Gwalior IT. Based on MHT CET chance of getting VJTI Electrical, SPIT CS, Cummins CE. Can you please suggest best option amongst these.
Ans: IIIT Jabalpur’s B.Tech in Computer Science offers NBA-accredited curricula, PhD-qualified faculty, modern AI/ML and software labs, mandatory internships, and an 85–90% placement rate led by recruiters like Amazon and Infosys. IIIT Gwalior’s five-year Integrated IT program combines B.Tech and M.Tech in Information Technology with strong research orientation, specialized networking and cybersecurity labs, and roughly 80% placement consistency for IT cohorts, closing at rank 12 276 in JoSAA Round 1. VJTI Mumbai Electrical Engineering, with NAAC A+ and NBA accreditation, boasts world-class power systems and automation labs, industry tie-ups with Siemens and L&T, and 95% branch-wise placements, requiring 99+ percentile in MHT CET for GOPENS. SPIT Mumbai Computer Engineering maintains a 99.77% MHT CET closing percentile, 99% placement offers, and dedicated AI and software labs, engaging over 200 recruiters annually. Cummins College Pune’s Mechanical and Civil Engineering programs admit at 97–98 percentile in MHT CET, provide state-of-the-art workshops, industry-aligned projects, and achieve 85–90% placements over the past three years. Each institution ensures rigorous academics, infrastructure, faculty expertise, industry partnerships, and consistent employability outcomes.

For premier brand recognition and near-universal software recruitment, the recommendation is SPIT CS. For top-tier core engineering and PSU engagement, choose VJTI Electrical. Next, opt for IIIT Jabalpur CS, then IIIT Gwalior IT, and consider Cummins CE as a solid backup. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My daughter scored 90 %in mhcet amd31% in jee mains . She scored 85% in boards can see get admission in walcand college of engineering
Ans: With a 90% MHT-CET percentile and 85% in boards, All-India-Quota admission to Walchand College of Engineering Sangli in core branches is unlikely (General-Home State CSE closed at 99.37% and Mechanical at 97.22% in 2023). However, your daughter can secure seats with 100% probability in reputable private institutions around Pune and Mumbai that accept closing percentiles around 85–90%. These include Bharati Vidyapeeth Deemed University, Pune (CSE); Sinhgad College of Engineering, Kondhwa (CSE/IT); JSPM Narhe Technical Campus, Pune (CSE/IT); Fr. C. Rodrigues Institute of Technology, Vashi Mumbai (Computer Engineering); SIES Graduate School of Technology, Navi Mumbai (CSE); D.J. Sanghvi College of Engineering, Mumbai (AI & ML); KJ Somaiya College of Engineering, Mumbai (IT); MIT College of Engineering, Pune (Information Technology); Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering, Pune (Electronics & Telecommunication); and MIT Academy of Engineering, Alandi (Electrical Engineering). These institutes offer NBA-accredited programs, PhD-qualified faculty, modern labs, active industry tie-ups, mandatory internships and 75–90% placement consistency over the last three years.

For the strongest combination of infrastructure, placement and brand value among accessible options with your daughter’s profile, the recommendation is Bharati Vidyapeeth Deemed University Pune CSE. As close alternatives, consider Sinhgad COE Kondhwa CSE and JSPM Narhe Technical Campus IT, ensuring assured admission and solid career outcomes. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My Son, is passes 12th std Science stream with 85% He is good in Maths he secured 98% in Maths Could please advise which degree he should opt now for bright future
Ans: Pramod Sir, An 85% science–stream graduate with 98% in mathematics thrives in quantitative-rigour degrees such as B.Tech in Mathematics and Computing, B.Sc (Hons) Mathematics, B.Sc Actuarial Science, B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering or a five-year integrated B.S.–M.S. in Data Science/AI. These programs at NBA/NAAC-accredited institutes combine PhD-qualified faculty mentoring, specialized labs (algorithmic computing, statistical modeling, actuarial risk labs, AI/ML clusters, high-performance computing), industry tie-ups offering internships and live projects, modern infrastructure (makerspaces, digital libraries, cloud platforms), and consistent 75–95% placement rates guided by active career-development cells. While B.Tech options ensure direct entry into tech and R&D roles, B.Sc degrees provide a solid theoretical foundation for research, education or competitive exams. Actuarial Science stands out for banking, insurance and financial risk management, leveraging mathematics and statistics in a high-demand sector.
Given his exceptional mathematics strength and interest in tech innovation, recommendation is B.Tech in Mathematics & Computing for its interdisciplinary curriculum and industry-ready placements. As compelling alternatives, consider B.Sc Actuarial Science for finance-risk careers and B.Tech CSE for broad technology roles. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
