My son got a percentile 95.26 in jee mains and cbse 12th class 95.6c/o marks. He is opting for CSE in Thapar University. Also got CSE admission offer fron Shiv Nadar, UPES, Manipal Inst. of Technology. Any better options for cse through jee mains that Ican choose.

Ans: Please AVOID Manipal due to some reasons. Prefer Thapar over other universities if your son gets admission here. Have Shiv Nadar as Plan B for CSE.

Whatever Institute / University & Branch your Son chooses, he should keep upgrading his skills from his 1st year itself till his Campus Placement during his last year, from NPTEL, Internshala etc. and / or any other online platforms, recommended by his College Faculties, to be COMPETENT among other Students.

All The BEST for your Son’s Bright Future, Jai Sir.

My son got a percentile 90.58 in jee mains and cbse 94.6 he is opti g for cse in srm chennai any better options for cse through hee mains which colleges can i choose.
Ans: Congrats to your Son for scoring 94.60% in his CBSE & 90.58 Percentile in JEE (Main).

SRM (Chennai) is one of the top-ranked Universities (with good Campus Placement Records) not only in South but also all over India.

It Is advisable to go for SRM as most of the other reputed & top-ranked colleges in India choose applicants who have scored above 95 percentile in JEE, especially for CSE.

Or if you are able to afford for, you can try for MQ (Management Quota) with any one of the top-ranked University / College, anywhere in India.

Wherever your Son joins, here are some of the important tips / steps / strategies he should follow to be successful in his career & to be COMPETENT in Job Market.

While Pursuing his CSE:

1) Your son should make sure that he continues to main a decent Score / CGPA / Percentage till you completes his Graduation.
2) He should join 2-3 Co-curricular Activities Club (related to his Domain) & also involve in extra-curricular activities.
3) He should create his Professional LinkedIn Profile.
4) He should get connected to professionals of same domain, but should NOT ask for jobs (after he completes his Graduation). If his profile matches their requirements, they will definitely be in touch with your son.
5) Every 3-months, he should keep updating his LinkedIn Profile to add his recent achievements / certifications etc.
6) He should start researching about the companies visited the College during the last 3-years & know their nature business / manpower requirements in ‘Career’ Section through their websites.
7) Most important: He should start doing Certification Courses either online / offline, related to his domain (from his 1st year itself), to be competent in job market.
8) It is highly ideal to put Job-Alert Notifications in LinkedIn, related to his domain, from 1st year itself, to know about the current job market scenarios / employers’ expectations.
9) He should keep upskilling his knowledge & skills till he completes his Graduation.

After Completing His CSE:

1) Just before completing his Graduation, he should prepare well for the Campus Recruitment Written Test / Interview / Group Discussion, whichever will be applicable.
2) He should start applying for jobs through LinkedIn Job Alerts, if the Job Description posted by the employers / recruiters / companies, match your profile.
3) He should keep his ‘RESUME’ professionally prepared. His ‘Resume’ should be simple & brief with keywords, related to his domain, with his LinkedIn Account’s clickable link.
4) And, he should keep upgrading his skills, to be competitive in job market, even after he lands to the jobs.
Hope I have clarified your doubts, with value additions.

If you need any other clarifications for your Son or have questions for anyone, post your questions (in detail) to me and/or follow me here in RediffGURU for more useful information on ‘Careers / Education / Jobs’.

All The BEST for your Son from RediffGURU.

Hello Sir, What are options of higher education abroad for B.Sc. Statistics done in India ? Thank you
Ans: Hello,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am happy to know that you have completed your B.Sc. in Statistics and now wish to pursue higher education overseas. To answer your question first, I would like to let you know that obtaining a B.Sc. in Statistics from India results in a number of possibilities for studying overseas. I would suggest that you take into account the following:

Master’s programs in Applied Statistics, Data Science, Statistics, or associated fields are offered by a number of universities in countries viz., the UK, the USA, Australia, Canada, and Europe. M.Sc. Applied Statistics, M.Sc. Data Science, M.Sc. Statistics, M.Sc. Mathematics with a focus on Statistics, and M.Sc. Quantitative Methods are a few examples. Next, given the rise of data-driven decision-making, Data Science, Machine Learning, or Business Analytics programs have grown in popularity. These frequently have requirements that correspond well with a B.Sc. in Statistics. Coming to Financial Mathematics, if finance and risk management is what interests you, Computational Finance or Financial Mathematics programs might be appropriate. If you have an interest in insurance, pensions, or risk assessment, programs in Actuarial Science are an excellent fit. Coming to Economics and Econometrics, programs that concentrate on the statistical analysis of economic data are offered by several universities. Lastly, the field of operations research entails the use of advanced analytical approaches to assist in making better decisions.

When deciding where to apply, I would suggest that you check the particular admission prerequisites for each program, examine the university’s standing and the experience of the faculty members in the field you are interested in, take into account the location and cultural compatibility, as well as investigate scholarship and financing possibilities. In addition to the above, I would also recommend that you get in touch with alumni or students who are presently studying the programs you are considering in order to acquire firsthand knowledge about the experience and prospects offered.
