Hi sir my son got electronics and computer engineering in AMRITHA bangalore and in comedk he got 13k rank and 16k in kcet Which is better option weather to go with AMRITHA or wait for comedk counselling

Ans: Sheela Madam, With an ECE seat already secured at Amrita (likely at a campus other than Coimbatore) and a COMEDK rank of 11,000, your son will not be able to get CSE or ECE in top Bengaluru colleges like RVCE, BMSCE, or MSRIT, as their CSE and ECE cutoffs are typically below 10,000. However, he has good chances for CSE or ECE in reputable mid-tier colleges such as BNMIT, JSS Academy of Technical Education, RNS Institute of Technology, and Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology, where cutoffs for these branches often extend up to 12,000–17,000. Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham offers strong academic quality, robust placement records (over 200 companies, average CTC ?9 lakh), and a national reputation, especially for ECE, with modern infrastructure and a research-driven environment. COMEDK colleges may offer a Bengaluru location advantage and strong peer interaction, but Amrita’s ECE program is generally considered superior in terms of brand value, research exposure, and placement consistency, especially outside the top COMEDK colleges. The recommendation is to proceed with Amrita ECE unless your son secures a CSE or ECE seat in a top-10 COMEDK college, as Amrita offers better long-term prospects in academics and placements compared to most options available at his current COMEDK rank. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Hello Sheela
If possible, take provisional admission to Amrita if they allow you to do so. Before paying the provisional admission fee, please clarify the policies related to admission cancellation and fee refunds. There is no harm in waiting for COMDEK counseling to explore more options, as your son has as well.
Best of luck.
