Hello sir, chemical engineering in NIT allahabad or ECE in igdtuw delhi. Which one is better? Please suggest.
Ans: Chemical Engineering at NIT Allahabad (MNNIT) is highly regarded, with consistent 100% placement rates in recent years, strong industry connections, and an average placement rate above 90% since 2020. The program offers a robust curriculum and good research opportunities, and the campus has a national reputation for engineering excellence. Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) at IGDTUW Delhi is also a strong choice, especially for women, with above 80% placement rates, a modern curriculum, and top recruiters like Amazon and Microsoft participating in campus placements. IGDTUW is recognized for its academic rigor, research exposure, and empowering campus environment for women, and it consistently ranks among the top women’s technical universities in India. While both options offer excellent placement records and industry exposure, NIT Allahabad has a broader alumni network and national brand value, which can be advantageous for core engineering and interdisciplinary roles, whereas IGDTUW’s ECE program offers strong tech placements and a supportive environment for women in STEM.

recommendation: Choose Chemical Engineering at NIT Allahabad if you prefer a nationally reputed institute with a strong legacy, diverse opportunities, and excellent placements in core and interdisciplinary sectors. Opt for ECE at IGDTUW if you value a women-centric, urban campus with a tech-focused curriculum and strong placement outcomes in electronics, IT, and allied industries. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My son got 94.79 persentile and ranl crl 81537 , OBC NCL 26047 home state ANDHRA PRADESH. Is it possible to gets seat in NITS , IIITS , Gifts
Ans: HI,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!

Based on your son's rank and domicile, he has a good chance of securing a seat in several NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs, particularly through the JoSAA/CSAB counseling rounds. However, it will require some patience.

He is likely to secure a seat in Chemical, Biotech, Metallurgical, or Civil Engineering at NIT Andhra Pradesh. Admission to Electrical or Mechanical Engineering may be a bit more challenging, but it could still be possible in the later rounds, depending on the availability of seats at the time of counseling.

For other NITs, there are promising opportunities in lower-tier or newer NITs. He has a good chance at NIT Srinagar, Mizoram, Nagaland, Manipur, Sikkim, and Arunachal Pradesh for ECE, EEE, Mechanical, and Civil Engineering. In NIT Raipur, NIT Hamirpur, and NIT Goa, he may find opportunities for Civil or Materials Engineering in the later rounds.

Regarding IIITs, many new IIITs have higher closing ranks, which makes them more accessible to your son's rank. Possible IIITs include Manipur, Bhagalpur, Dharwad, and Agartala. In Kalyani, CSE and ECE options might also be available.

A better option for your son would be GFTIs, where he can secure a seat in institutions such as Silchar, SLIET, and GKV (Haridwar).

Encourage him to participate actively in the counseling process until he achieves his goal.

BEST WISHES.
