Sir I got jee mains rank 5300 in OBC category, I was thinking to take drop as I got 105 marks in jee advanced and I didn't got any IIT , what will you suggest me sir ?

Ans: You could have tried for any one of the NITs. Instead of relying only on JEE/IITs/NITs, all should have Plan B & Plan C by appearing in some other Entrance Exams Also. You take a drop only if you are 100% confident, analyze over your low marks & fine-tune your preparation strategies for 2025. Else, try to join any college. All the BEST for Your Bright Future.

Ans: Tarra, for the next year's (1st) JEE-Main Exam, only 8-months left. Scoring above 95 percentile from 60 percentile will be a much difficult task. Reasons for your low score of 60 percentile? Not joined any coaching center? Any other reasons? It is better to join any college in TS this year, be highly dedicated towards your studies, keep upgrading your skills, have a Professional LinikedIn Profile, connect with Professionals of your domain, have job alerts in LinkedIn to know the Current Job Market Trends & upgrade yourself accordingly. All the BEST for Your Bright Future.

Hello experts, I’m a 23-year-old student currently preparing for the CUET PG entrance exam. I have a strong interest in two different fields—English Literature and Mass Communication. Both align with my passion for storytelling and creative expression, but I’m struggling to decide. I’ve heard that CUET PG allows students to apply for multiple courses, but I’m not sure how it works in terms of application fee, exam schedules, or if it might affect my chances of admission. Can I apply for two courses simultaneously in CUET PG?

Ans: According to the Information Bulletin of CUET-PG-2025, an applicant can submit only one application form but can apply for up to Four Test Papers by paying additional application fees. Fees vary based on category and number of test papers. The National Testing Agency (NTA) schedules exams in separate sessions to avoid clashes. Independent evaluation ensures each test paper meets eligibility criteria. Exploring interests in storytelling and creative expression allows you for informed decision-making based on performance and preferences. All The BEST for Your Prosperous Future.

I am having about 2 lakh in my PF out of which, ,I am allowed to borrow 1.5 lakh for housing purpose. After borrowing 1.5 lakh I am willing to pay the amount back to PF in small installments every month other than employee contribution. But my employer never entertain the voluntary contribution. Is there any other way to return back the amount borrowed from Provident Fund.

Ans: Hello;

You may consider it as partial withdrawal from EPF for house purchase.

No need to repay it. It's your own money which you are allowed to partially withdraw subject to certain conditions.

However your PF kitty will need to be replenished through regular contributions.

I am 57 years old, have 3 cr in stocks and mutual funds, and I intend to invest another 2 cr because I make 1 cr a year. After reiteration, my monthly expenses would be 2.0 lacs. Could you please tell me if this is enough money to retire?

Ans: Hello;

You will need a minimum corpus of 6 Cr to generate post-tax monthly income of 2.1 L+ through annuity.(6% annuity rate considered)

After fulfilling monthly expenses you may do a monthly sip of around 10-15 K in a relatively low risk hybrid fund.

This can grow into a corpus of 40-60 L in 15 years which may be used to enhance annuity income for inflation.(9% returns considered)
