Sir my daughter got 12832rank in SRM phase 2.she is interested in mechanical or mectronics engg I want to know which one is good and which campus she has to select.
Ans: With a Phase-2 rank of 12,832, your daughter can secure Mechanical or Mechatronics engineering at SRM’s Chennai campuses—Ramapuram and Vadapalani—while the main Kattankulathur campus cutoffs for these branches close around 30,000–45,000 and 38,000–42,000 respectively, making both options attainable. Mechanical Engineering across SRM campuses boasts 80–95% placements over the last three years, with Ramapuram averaging 90% and Vadapalani 82%. Mechatronics at Kattankulathur shows similar performance, with a 90% placement rate and robust core-industry recruiters like John Deere and Schneider Electric. Mechanical offers broader core sector opportunities in automotive, energy, and manufacturing, whereas Mechatronics blends mechanics, electronics, and automation, catering to robotics and Industry 4.0 roles. For a balanced mix of high placement consistency and campus environment, Ramapuram is recommended for Mechanical, while Kattankulathur excels for Mechatronics due to specialized labs and stronger research focus. The recommendation is to choose Mechanical at SRM Ramapuram for its slightly higher placement stability and infrastructure, or Mechatronics at SRM Kattankulathur if interdisciplinary automation appeals more. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hi Anu, Is it normal for a friend's husband to flirt or make a pass at you despite knowing you are close to his wife? Recently, my friend's husband has been complimenting my looks excessively. He texts me late at night. Once he even tried to touch my hand during a party. I have been feeling extremely uncomfortable when he is around but I am not sure if I am overthinking or reading too much into this. Should I confront my friend about her husband's inappropriate behaviour? I am afraid it would ruin our friendship. How do I handle this situation where a married man, who is also my friend's husband, is crossing his boundaries?
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
No, it's not normal for a friend's husband to flirt or make a pass at you unless you have given them the permission to do so; implicitly or explicitly...And when you don't object to it, then it's a green signal for the guy!
To make things uncomfortable for this guy, the next time he tries any Romeo moves like touching your hand or moving closing to you, ask very confidently: Excuse me, do you want to say something me?
That will give him an indication that you are not okay with this and also indicate to the others that he's violating your physical boundary.
But even after this if he does not stop, you can talk to your friend and oh, make sure that you save all of his texts...But be prepared to lose your friend as she's not going to choose friendship over her marriage...

All the best!

The program features dedicated cloud labs, virtualized infrastructure, and partnerships for hands-on practice, supported by a robust career-development cell that achieved a 91% placement rate across B.Tech programs over the past three years, with the CSE branch averaging a 7.13 LPA package in 2024 and over 980 recruiters including Microsoft, AWS, and Google. Essential cloud-computing skills encompass platform fluency (AWS, Azure, GCP), virtualization, networking, security best practices, infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/CloudFormation), containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), DevOps toolchains, and proficiency in Python or Bash scripting to automate workflows. India’s cloud-computing market, valued at USD 29.5 billion in 2024 and projected to grow at a 25.8% CAGR through 2033, is driven by digital-India initiatives, hybrid-cloud adoption, data-localization mandates, and the accelerating demand for scalable IT infrastructure across BFSI, healthcare, e-commerce, and government sectors. To remain competitive, students should obtain AWS/Azure certifications, contribute to open-source cloud projects, participate in hackathons, and secure internships in cloud operations or architecture roles. Strong analytical aptitude, continuous learning through MOOCs, and active engagement in technical forums further enhance employability in this rapidly expanding domain.

Recommendation: Given SRM IST’s top accreditation, specialized cloud infrastructure, high placement consistency, and industry partners, enrolling in its CSE (Cloud Computing) program offers the best foundation for a cloud-computing career, while complementing academic learning with AWS certifications, internship projects, and active participation in cloud communities will maximize job-market readiness. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Relationship
Hello madam, I am a 35 year-old software Engineer from Pune. I am living with my wife, sister and mother in a joint-family setup. My wife and sister both are working. I got married in Dec 2022. Last year due to project ramp-down, my wife had to move to Hyderabad for work. During that time, only she was living in Hyderabad in a rented flat, I was still trying to search for a job in Hyderabad. But after 6 months, around March 2025, her project in Hyderabad got ramped down again. She tried searching for jobs in pune and hyderabad, but she could only get interview calls from Pune. So ultimately had to settle back with us in pune. She does have a regret moving back to Pune. Now after 2-3 months of moving back to Pune, one night she started picking up a fight with me and she said she doesn't like a joint family setup, and wants to move in a seperate apartment. She is too much attached to Hyderabad City ,that she was forcing me to search for a job in Hyderabad. I explained her that last year also I was trying a lot for a job in Hyderabad, but couldn't get a decent job, and I am still trying to search for a job in Hyderabad but due to tough market situation and some bad luck unable to get a good opportunity. I also said we can move to another rented flat in pune as well, but she is still adamant about moving to Hyderabad. I tried to explain her that it would be easy for me to attend any family emergencies related to my mother or sister of we at least stay in the same city, but nothing works. My sister is suffering from clinical depression and due to this, she is still unmarried. We did tried to search a suitable alliance for her but we were unsuccessful. This also upsets her a lot, and the fact that my mother and my sister are financially and emotionally dependent on me, makes my wife sad and angry. I do always to make things work for her , but the fact that I also have to look after my mother and sister brings problem in our marriage. My mother is a single parent hence the reason she is dependent on me. My sister is working but her income is not that much that if I stopped supporting, the household will work. Now I am highly anxious that if I really don't get a job in Hyderabad, how things will take shape for me and my family. Things do look quite scary at this time, trying to convince my wife to look for rented flat in pune but no luck yet.
Ans: Dear Siddharth,
You seem to be fair in requesting your wife to shift to another place in Pune which will take care of your family and your wife as well...
What seems to be the issue with that for her? What is in Hyderabad that is not there in Pune?
Is she worried that your family will drop by without informing?
Does she worry that you will be neglecting her and attend to only your family?

Anything that seems unreasonable usually has a hidden reason behind it; she's not sharing what exactly the issue is or she is yet to figure it out herself. My suggestion to you is to have a good heart to heart chat with her where you address her concerns and share yours, so that she understands you as well...The only way to solve issues is to come to meeting point and then find a win-win...

All the best!

Relationship
Anu Hi. I'm in a really stressful situation and I don't know how to handle it. A few years ago, I was in a relationship with a woman who turned out to be extremely manipulative and possessive. I ended things with her long before I met my wife. I've moved on completely and I'm happily married now. But my ex hasn't. I recently discovered that she has been stalking my wife on social media, creating fake accounts, and even sending her threatening messages. Some of them are nasty and borderline disturbing. She is sharing details about our past relationship that are not relevant. My wife is scared and upset, and it's starting to create unnecessary tension between us. She's beginning to question my past and wonder why this woman still feels entitled to harass her. I really don't want to involve the police or escalate this legally. I want to avoid drama, because I'm also worried it might provoke my ex even further. I just want this to stop. I'm trying to protect my marriage and my wife's peace of mind, but I feel helpless. My wife doesn't respond to her but the details still bother her. What is the right way to handle this without making it worse? How do I reassure my wife, and is there a non-legal way to make my ex back off for good? Am I wrong for trying to avoid police action in a situation like this?
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
If you have nothing to hide from your wife, why worry what your ex will do even if take the legal route?
I think your wife deserves her peace of mind and to actually go the legal way to stop your ex is okay in my opinion especially if she's begun to harass...Don't you think?
A woman that loves you will be reassured only when she feels safe with her man; what are you doing to ensure that?
For starters,
- come clean (if there's anything left to share) with your wife; this will ensure that your ex does not use that to blackmail you
- love your wife even more; actions will matter more than words at this point in time
- do not attempt to meet, text or contact your ex without a legal backing; she may use this against you

You are not wrong in avoiding police action or legal recourse as it can be a lot to handle, but if you are left with no option and your marriage is falling apart, do what it takes to save it...

All the best!
