Sir i prepared for neet for almost 6 years .without any guidance about my carrier . But i always miss the mbbs seat. I dont know i am really stressed what should i do . i dont want to be in medical field now . i dont even have a degree right now what should i do . i passed my 12th in 2019 from pcb backround. I want to bba and then mba but right now i am 24 . i dont know my past will affect my profile.or i will face difficulty to get in to mba . idk i will be able to get job or not . I really want a help Please suggest me what should i do

Ans: Hi,

I’m very sorry to hear that you missed out on six years due to a lack of proper guidance. Since you are NOT interested in medicine, it's important to choose a course that won’t negatively impact your future. If you excel in chemistry, you might consider pursuing that field and then entering the job market afterward. You can also pursue an MBA after completing any undergraduate course. If you're not confident in your chemistry skills, a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) could be a good alternative. Ultimately, the choice is yours.

It's worth noting that when companies hire fresh graduates, they often look at age. Most companies tend to favor candidates who are under 24 years old. Therefore, it’s essential to complete your course without any gaps. This will increase your opportunities significantly. Don’t worry; you can achieve your goals!

Best wishes.

Greetings sir, I scored 78% in 10 and 75% in 12(Covid result). I pursued CA intermediate through direct entry route. Failed in January. I am 22 turning 23 in august Unemployed and failed attempt. What are the options i have to save my burning career.

Ans: Pursue your CA parallelly, but for having a tag of graduation immediately go for an online BBa for two years. At least you will be graduate after two years, otherwise your bio-data will be dead. If you can clear CA then it is very good, otherwise after BBA join some ordinary job and go for an online MBA. They are much cheaper than off line courses and you get ample time. I will recommend D Y Patil University, Pune. Best of luck. Professor..........:)

Money

Dear Sir, I am 40 years old. I have a home loan with an outstanding amount of 98 lakhs, an EMI of 1.32 lakhs, and a remaining tenure of 102 months. I also have a personal loan with an outstanding amount of 11.3 lakhs, an EMI of 65,000, and a remaining tenure of 19 months. My current salary is 6.5 lakhs per month. I have investments in stocks and mutual funds worth 66 lakhs, gold worth 9 lakhs, fixed deposits worth 10 lakhs, and a PPF account worth 8 lakhs. Please advise whether I should make a prepayment towards my loans or continue with my EMIs and allow my investments to grow.

Ans: Hello;

You must definitely prepay your outstanding loans as much as possible.

With the current corpus you can repay personal loan entirely and more then 50% of the outstanding home loan.

You may reduce the EMI on home loan by keeping the tenure same.

This will ensure more investible surplus available for investments into MFs, NPS, PPF, Gold and Bank FDs for your financial goals.

Best wishes;

Question by Aditya - May 04, 2025

Career

Which branch can I get in viteee at 23k rank in category 1 or 2 in Vellore and chennai campuses

Ans: Hello Ajinkya
Are you interested in college only? Engineering is not the branch of choice. First, decide in which field you want to build a career or what your parents have decided about your career. If you are inclined towards a job, then the course will be different; if you are more inclined to do business, the selection of the course will also differ. The options you mentioned are good. With a 23K rank in category 1 or 2, you may secure admission to core branches like Civil, Mechanical, or Electrical easily or to some computer-related branches. However, if you are only interested in CSE, it may be somewhat difficult to gain entry with this rank in these colleges. You may need to compromise on the branch in these colleges if necessary.
