Ans: Hi Sunil, One option is to do a course relevant to your field. There are a lot of courses available (mainly abroad) where you can reskill yourself even after 22 years work experience. Can also look at an option of an executive MBA course (1 year).

Resp. Sir, My son had scored 89 %le MHTCET.. Which colleges will be the better option for E&TC branch in Pune

Ans: With an 89 percentile in MHT CET, your son has a good chance of getting into several well-regarded E&TC (Electronics and Telecommunication) engineering colleges in Pune. It is suggested that colleges like Vishwakarma Institute of Technology (VIT), MIT World Peace University (MIT WPU), and even potentially the College of Engineering, Pune (COEP), are within reach. It's also worth exploring options like the Army Institute of Technology (AIT) and DY Patil Institute of Technology,Pune.

Hello Sir, My son got 98 percentile in MHT CET, according to previous year cutoff he can get Civil or Production Engineering in VJTI Mumbai, should he take any of the above branch. Is this good for his future. Please suggest.

Ans: Hello dear.
With the mentioned percentile, he may gain admission to CSE or computer-related branches with a compromise on the engineering college. Civil engineering is a more preferable branch over Production from a future point of view. Wait until the SML is declared. The scenario will be clearer after the SML.
Best of luck.
