I gave 12th class exams last year scored 81% dummy school had 66 and 77 percentile in mains 1 and 2 and 90.2 percentile in mhtcet being a non Maharashtraian. 123 in bitsat. Took a drop, studied hard yet scored 60 percentile in mains 2025 first attempt. Feeling disheartened havent been able to study nicely after results. Will it be practical to focus on mains 2 as i doubt my capabilities or bitsat entirely? Or any other exam i have a good scope in? Wish to get into a tier 1 clg (have delhi domicile as i did my 12th from delhi). If yes, how do i build the momentum and get back to studies and which exam should i be focusing on since i have failed mains 1 also.

Ans: Hello dear.
Remember, the JEE exam and passing engineering from 1st tier engg college can't be a parameter of success in life If you look nearby, many people are successful, but none of them have completed their engineering from 1st tier college or cleared JEE like competitive examinations. You tried your best but failed to crack JEE in 1 or 2 attempts. No problem. You are not alone in this worst situation (as per your thinking)! You also gave the MHT-CET and got a good percentile (90.2). You could be admitted to a good private engg college with this percentile in Maharashtra. But why you did not take this decision is not clear. I would like to suggest you, please drop the idea of appearing for JEE this time and clear any state-level engineering entrance examination. Take admission to a reputed private engineering college and start you journey in a fresh mood. For your reference, there are 10 engineering colleges in India where you can get admission without a JEE score.

Focus either on the state-level engineering entrance examination or choose the best options from the given link, if your financial position is strong.

I completed my 12th grade in 2022. They say that if the foundation of a house is weak, the chances of the whole house collapsing are very high. Similarly, my situation was affected by the Corona period. My 11th and 12th-grade basics were completely messed up, and I needed to fix them but couldn't. Due to some wrong decisions, I took a drop in my first year to prepare for JEE on my own, but the results were not good, and I failed. Actually, I couldn’t get much output from myself. During that critical time, I sought advice from people around me. Some suggested joining a local college like MBM Jodhpur for Petroleum Engineering or JIET College, while others advised me to take a second drop and prepare for JEE with coaching since I had already studied a bit. So, I took a second drop and also filled out a form for a BA in History, Political Science, and Public Administration, intending to study for the exams just two days before BA Exam to pass and also to minimize risks as I had taken 2nd drop. Despite taking a second drop, I still didn’t perform well enough to get into any NIT or IIIT (and being from the general category added to the difficulty). My Maths was very weak. Then I attempted other entrance exams like COMEDK and JIPMAT, which is a management entrance exam. I’ve become crazy with all this. My interest in engineering completely faded, and I wanted to build a career in management. I wanted to study outside Jodhpur, so I searched for different entrances, but there wasn’t enough time for their preparation, so I couldn’t apply. In COMEDK, I ranked 49k, and my JIPMAT result is not going to be good. Please help me at this crucial moment. I’ve become CONFUSED AND EXHAUSTED because even after so much struggle day and night, I haven’t achieved anything. Now I’m unable to decide what to do next. According to my current situation, I have a few options: 1st :- Take admission in any branch at MBM Jodhpur through REAP. 2nd :- Take admission in Doon Business School for BBA Management Studies. 3rd :-Prepare for the SSC Stenographer exam, which is coming up in a few months. 4th :- Prepare for the RAS exam as per my father’s suggestion. 5th :- Go to Bangalore through COMEDK to any college I get, but I am not sure if it will be worth it. Please PLEASE PLEASE help me, guide me properly. ???????? If I consider doing my Masters abroad, there’s no financial security from my family to guarantee that.
Ans: Hi Bhavesh. It would be better to talk to a counselor one to one across the table. You have asked many questions and some of them are related and some are irrelevant. Only with personal talks, one can understand your real problem(s).
