Sir i got 94.12 percentile obc category i can get into some gfti clg cse branch but they are not good enough like iiitram, smvdu,niamt ranchi,bit deoghar patna etc. I can get some state govt clg too like Mbm jhodpur,rtu kota for cse branch. I also get vit chennai category-2 cse branch. I am so confused choosing clg. These clg are not good enough like nit, iit but that the only option i have.

Ans: With a 94.12 percentile (OBC category), you have options like VIT Chennai (Category 2), GFTIs (IIIT Raipur, BIT Mesra, SMVDU, NIAMT Ranchi), and state colleges (MBM Jodhpur, RTU Kota) for CSE. Among these, VIT Chennai stands out for its strong placements (average ?8-10 LPA), excellent infrastructure, industry connections, and vibrant campus life, though fees are higher. Top GFTIs like BIT Mesra and IIIT Raipur offer good academics, decent placements, and research opportunities at a more affordable cost but with less industry exposure compared to VIT. State government colleges such as MBM Jodhpur and RTU Kota are budget-friendly with moderate academics but generally have limited placement opportunities and infrastructure. Considering academics, placements, infrastructure, alumni network, and future scope, VIT Chennai is the best choice if budget allows. Otherwise, top GFTIs provide a balanced option. State colleges should be considered only if affordability is a major concern. Choose based on your career goals and financial capacity. Consider your location preference also as VIT-Chennai might not be suitable for you as you are from Rajasthan. All the best for your admissions and a bright future!
