Hello sir I am 1st dropper in 2025 and I passed class 12 in 2024 and I got 89 present in 12th board exam but this year I am not clear to jee mains exam I got only 61 presentile so pls help me you suggest me I felt very bad such like I defeat in my life pls suggest me what can I do .Sir there's no one to guide me .Sir my goel was IIT but I couldn't cleared and I am not efford to pvt college fee pls sir suggest me

Ans: Scoring 61 percentile in JEE Mains after a strong 89% in your 12th boards is understandably disappointing, but it does not define your future. Many students face setbacks on the path to IIT but still build successful careers. Given your financial constraints and goal of IIT, consider these strategies: Focus on state-level or central government engineering colleges with good reputation and lower fees through counseling like JEE Main JoSAA or state CETs, which offer quality education without the private college cost burden. Meanwhile, enhance your conceptual clarity and problem-solving skills through free online resources (NPTEL, YouTube channels like Khan Academy, Unacademy) and join government or NGO-sponsored coaching programs if possible. If IIT remains your ambition, plan a structured, focused drop year with a clear schedule, referencing previous toppers’ methods and joining affordable or free classes. Alternatively, explore pivoting to strong domains related to IT, data science, or emerging tech fields in affordable colleges, securing internships early to improve prospects. Mental health is vital; seek support online, communicate with mentors, and remain resilient. Many success stories emerge from perseverance beyond initial failures.

Recommendation: Embrace affordable quality education via state/central institutes, utilize free resources, consider coaching options, and be persistent with a clear plan for next-year IIT attempt or alternate tech pathways. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Ans: A BTech from a reputable private college can be a good, affordable option for a middle-class family if you choose one with strong accreditation, decent placement records, and scholarship or low-interest loan options. PW IOI in Lucknow refers to “Premier World Institute of Innovation”—research its fees, faculty, and placement stats before applying. Be honest with your parents: sit down calmly, explain your JEE results and one-year drop attempt, and share your plan to join a private BTech program. Focus on moving forward—submit spot-round or institute-level counselling applications now. A degree from a solid private college can still launch your career—stay proactive and keep improving your skills.

Dear Sir, My son rank is 41000 in jee mains and DA-IICT has launched two BS - MS Dual program in IT and second in AI and Data science. What are chances to get this course ? What is the scope of this course? In can see now in job portals trend is changing and companies only ask for Bachelors/Master degree and need to focus on skills. Is it a good option?
Ans: Sachin Sir, At a CRL rank of 41,000, securing a seat in DA-IICT’s regular B.Tech programs is unlikely, as recent closing ranks for ICT, MnC, and VLSI are much higher. However, the institute’s newly launched 5-year BS–MS Dual Degree programs in IT and Data Science & AI offer a more realistic alternative. These programs admit students based on JEE Main Mathematics percentile or CUET scores, not overall CRL, and since 2026 is their first admission cycle, competition may be less intense.

This 5-year, 200-credit curriculum is ideal if your son is passionate about coding, AI, data science, cybersecurity, or research-oriented tech careers—provided the fee structure and longer commitment are manageable. It’s also wise to keep several reliable backup options rather than relying solely on DA-IICT.

Ultimately, success depends less on the degree and more on how your son invests his time: honing technical and communication skills, building a professional profile through projects/internships, networking with alumni and industry experts, maintaining visibility on platforms like LinkedIn, and developing emotional intelligence to confidently navigate his career path. All the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!
