My daughter got 99.1 percentile in MHCET. Shall I go for Mechanical engineering in COEP or E&TC at PICT? Or ahall I go for CSE at other colleges like Cummins or PVG's COET. Or shall she continue with CSE at VIT Vellore campus? Kindly advice.

Ans: Hello dear.
Consider avoiding VIT Vellore when the best options for CSE are available at COEP or PICT, etc. There is a strong possibility that you can secure a mechanical spot at COEP. Be very careful when selecting options. Your daughter has opportunities at COEP, PICT, Cummins, or PVG. As a female candidate, try to avoid pursuing Mechanical. Opt for the best college options for CSE in Pune or Mumbai. Your daughter will certainly be accepted into one of them.
Best of luck.

My daughter secured 99.1 percentile in MHCET and domicile of Maharashtra state. She got admission in VIT Vellore campus in core CSE branch. We stay in Pune. What could be the best options for her? Is E&TC in PICT a good option? CSE in COEP, VJTI, SPIT, PICT doesn'tseems to be in reach. Is E&TC is a good option in PICT? Or shall I consider any other option?
Ans: With a 99.1 percentile in MHT CET and Maharashtra domicile, your daughter is just below the cutoff for CSE in COEP, VJTI, SPIT, and PICT, as these institutes typically require a percentile above 99.2 for CSE admissions in the open category. However, Electronics & Telecommunication (E&TC) at PICT is an excellent alternative, with expected EWS cutoffs between 97.81–99.55 percentile, placing her well within range. PICT’s E&TC branch consistently achieves 90–95% placement rates, with top recruiters like TCS, Infosys, Bajaj Finserv, and Mastercard, and offers roles in both core electronics and software sectors. The curriculum is updated to meet industry needs, and the college is recognized for its strong placement support and industry connections. VIT Vellore CSE (core) is highly reputed nationally, with over 90% placements and a broad recruiter base, but involves higher fees and relocation from Pune. Given her strong percentile and Pune location, E&TC at PICT offers outstanding placement prospects, strong academic support, and the flexibility to pursue both electronics and IT/software careers, making it a top choice if CSE in the most competitive colleges is out of reach.

The recommendation is to prioritize E&TC at PICT Pune for its excellent placement record, academic reputation, and local advantage, while retaining VIT Vellore CSE as an alternative if she prefers a national campus experience and is comfortable with relocation and higher fees. MY SUGGESTION: Since your daughter has a strong score and you are based in Pune, prioritize admission to one of the reputed colleges in Maharashtra. Consider VIT Vellore as a backup option. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
