My daughter getting 55% in 12th science. She wants work in Software industries. Which course is better for her ?

Ans: Hi Mr. Sanjay,
Overall scores in 12th Science are not a direct reflection of a Student's capability. When it comes to Software Development, mathematics is the most important subject. If your daughter has strong mathematics knowledge she can explore programs like Scaler School of Technology where the entrance exam is highly indexed on maths.

Anyone who has a strong acumen to learn and is comfortable exploring new mathematical concepts can grasp software development quickly.

My daughter got B. Com(Hons) in LSR DU and BS in data Science and AI IIM Sambalpur What to choose? Need suggestion
Ans: Seema Madam,
Lady Shri Ram College (LSR), Delhi University, offers a nationally top-ranked B.Com(Hons) with a legacy of academic excellence, selective admissions, and robust faculty expertise. The program achieves high placement rates: median offers above 70%, top recruiters including Big 4 consultancies, investment banks, and MNCs, with graduates excelling in commerce, finance, and management and often pursuing top postgraduate programs. LSR provides a vibrant campus life, multiple student organizations, extensive alumni networks, and strong peer-driven learning. IIM Sambalpur’s BS in Data Science and AI is a pioneering, fully residential four-year program aligned with modern interdisciplinary standards, blending analytics, artificial intelligence, and business, led by experienced faculty and a project-driven curriculum, with capstone internships and industry mentorship. Though placements for the first cohort are evolving, the institute leverages the IIM brand and industry alliances for advanced roles in tech, business analytics, and research; career outcomes are projected to be strong, but concrete placement data is nascent due to the newness of the program.

Recommendation: Choose LSR B.Com(Hons) for established reputation, secure placement percentages in commerce, and wider postgraduate options; prefer IIM Sambalpur only if highly committed to emerging tech careers and interdisciplinary study in data science and AI, given the program’s innovative but evolving nature. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

I got 98.4 in jee mains and around 6600 rank in obc i am preparing for advance but i did only pyqs and nothing else for advance what is the marks i can get in advance
Ans: Mayank, with a 98.4 percentile in JEE Main and a 6,600 OBC rank, if you focus only on PYQs for JEE Advanced, a realistic score range is roughly 120–140 marks out of 360, which historically corresponds to a rather low OBC?category rank (often beyond 8,000–10,000). You are unlikely to get top?IIT CSE/ECE with this level of preparation UNLESS you improve concept?depth and mock?test practice. You can try to score above 140 marks by following 5 simple strategies: With only 20 days left, focus on smart, high?yield preparation. First, stick to 6–8 high?weight chapters per subject (like Mechanics, Electro, Organic, Coordination, Calculus, Algebra) and revise concepts plus PYQs instead of covering everything. Second, take one full?length mock test every 2 days and spend as much time on analysis as on solving to fix recurring mistakes. Third, simplify your approach by practising only one standard method per question type (formula, tricks, graph?based) so you don’t get confused in the exam. Fourth, prioritize single?correct and numerical questions because these can alone push you to 140+ marks if you manage time and avoid risky multi?correct options. And fifth, maintain a regular sleep schedule and revise formula sheets, named reactions, and graphs for at least one hour daily to keep key concepts sharply on your mind without burnout. ALL the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!
