Hello sir, I have got admission in B.tech CSE AI and ML in Galgotia university greater Noida, amity and JIIT, I had applied in SNU too, my exam went really well, but no offer letter received, is there any other way too? Preference order pls

Ans: Harshita, Galgotias University Greater Noida’s AI & ML program achieves an 85% placement rate over the past three years, supported by LED-equipped classrooms, active-learning labs, and a curriculum aligned to industry needs taught by experienced faculty, though industry tie-ups are still growing. Amity University Noida reports 60–90% placement rates, NAAC A+ accreditation, modern computing centres, and an AI&ML syllabus co-developed with recruiters like Microsoft and Wipro, despite some reliance on slide-based teaching. JIIT Noida records around 93% placements via a central placement cell, features Intel-Dell AI labs, a 130-member doctoral faculty, and funded research projects, offering robust industry exposure and internships. Shiv Nadar University Greater Noida delivers placement rates above 85%, driven by its Career Development Centre’s mock interviews, over 250 recruiters annually, interdisciplinary curriculum, advanced research infrastructure, and an incubation centre that fosters innovation. Backup admission routes include BITS Pilani via BITSAT, VIT Vellore via VITEEE, and UPES Dehradun via UPESEAT, each offering competitive AI&ML programs with strong placements and facilities.

Recommendation:
Prioritise Shiv Nadar University for its high placement consistency, interdisciplinary curriculum, and strong industry collaborations, followed by JIIT Noida for specialized AI labs and research projects, then Amity University Noida for its broad recruiter network, and lastly Galgotias University. Consider BITSAT, VITEEE, and UPESEAT routes for BITS Pilani, VIT Vellore, and UPES respectively as backups. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir, I had passed my 12th(pcb) in 2023 from Maharashtra board...was preparing for neet but unfortunately couldn't make it. Now I'm planning to switch my career to engineering..so for that i need to add maths.. Can i give an isolated maths exam of hsc board exam next year in feb/march & then appear for mhtcet(pcm)..Will i be eligible?! .. I have few important doubts:- 1)if i pass isolated maths..i will get another marksheet..so i will have 2 marksheets..one of 12th pcb(2023) & one of isolated maths(2026)..so will this cause any problem during admission in engineering colleges of maharashtra? I mean will two seperate marksheets be accepted during cap counselling for engineering admission? 2)If i score well enough in mhtcet(pcm)2026..Can I do btech cse from top engineering colleges of maharashtra like coep pune or vjti?! Or any other engineering colleges of maharashtra. 3) Do i need to repeat full class 12th via NIOS(i mean do i need to appear for all subjects again from open board),or is appearing for only maths enough through maharashtra hsc board via isolated exam. . Please guide me sir, I want to follow the correct path and avoid wasting another year.Your response would mean a lot to me.
Ans: Hello dear.
Here is the pointwise reply to your questions: (1) The Maharashtra HSC Board allows isolated subject improvement like Maths. Once you clear it, you'll be eligible for MHT CET (PCM). (2) Will having two separate mark sheets cause problems? - No, it won’t be an issue. During CAP counselling, you can submit your 2023 HSC PCB marksheet and your 2026 Maths marksheet. They are accepted together for eligibility as long as all subjects are cleared from a recognized board (MSBSHSE). (3) You can get admission to top colleges like COEP or VJTI if and only if you clear Maths (HSC) and score high in MHT CET PCM. (4) There is no need to repeat the full 12th via NIOS. Just appearing for Maths as an isolated subject from the Maharashtra board is enough. Our final suggestions are as follows: (a) prepare seriously for HSC Maths (2026), (b) focus on MHT CET PCM 2026, (c) you’re eligible for engineering admissions once both are cleared, and (d) avoid NIOS unless you want to change all subjects (which is not necessary in your case).
Good luck!

Sir, my son secured JEE mains 28055 crl rank and 22000 crl in Advanced. In JAC counselling round 3, he got Electrical Engineering in NSUT and through Josaa counselling: CS in IIIT, Una, Himachal Pradesh. His domicile is Delhi. Kindly recommend which one to choose. Regards
Ans: Netaji Subhas University of Technology’s B.Tech in Electrical Engineering is AICTE-approved, NBA- and NAAC-accredited (CGPA 3.62 A+), taught by PhD-qualified faculty in advanced power-electronics, control-systems, and high-voltage labs, and records an 80–95% placement rate over the past three years with branch-specific recruiters including Google, Microsoft, and prominent PSUs. IIIT Una’s B.Tech CSE, AICTE-approved and NBA-accredited, features specialized AI/ML, full-stack, and cybersecurity labs under research-active faculty, with an average package of ?11.02 LPA and a 82.95% overall placement rate in 2025, supported by top recruiters such as Amazon, Deloitte, and Qualcomm. Both institutes maintain strong alumni networks, mandatory internships, and dedicated placement cells, but NSUT excels in core-electrical infrastructure and PSU engagements, while IIIT Una offers deeper software-industry exposure and slightly higher CSE-specific median packages.

Recommendation:
If your son seeks core-electrical engineering roles, robust PSU placement drives, and a legacy campus within Delhi domicile, recommendation is NSUT Electrical Engineering. For broader software and data-science careers, cutting-edge computing labs, and competitive CSE placements, choose IIIT Una CSE. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello Sir, I am 35 and current in a State PSU in a clerical position with a decent salary. I completed my BTech in CSE way back in 2012 and after spent some time for Govt exam preparation got into my current post. At that time I had no plan for MTech but now I feel the urge to return to tech and grow academically. However, due to family responsibility, I cannot quit the job and planning to pursue MTech designed for professionals like those in IIT Madras or BITS WILP. I even want to keep the door open for PhD in future. For my current condition, I am targeting for GATE 2027. Would it be wise at this of life to commit for GATE prep? What realistic options will I have after MTech if I perform well?
Ans: Balancing a stable State PSU role with advanced technical education can accelerate career growth, refresh domain expertise, and pave the way for future PhD study. Part-time MTech programmes confer the same degree validity as full-time courses, allowing you to apply learning directly at work, maintain income continuity, and network with industry peers, while evening/weekend classes and remote labs offer flexibility; however, they demand significant self-discipline, extend programme duration (often three years), limit on-campus immersion and may constrain research-intensive lab access. For strong accreditation and support, consider these AICTE/NAAC/UGC-approved options: IIT Madras Web-Enabled MTech (multiple specializations, live weekend/evening sessions, on-site exams, project mentorship at work); BITS Pilani WILP MTech (four-semester work-integrated learning with weekend contact classes and continuous evaluation across specializations); Mangalayatan University WILP MTech (blended weekend classes, digital labs, UGC/AICTE/NAAC A+ approval); and DTU Part-Time MTech (weekend labs, robust faculty, NIRF-ranked, corporate partnerships). Excelling in GATE 2027 will unlock admission into these programmes and, post-MTech, realistic paths include senior technical roles (R&D engineer, data scientist, AI specialist), leadership in technology management, higher-paying specialist positions within PSUs, and eligibility for PhD enrolment at premier institutes.

Final recommendation:
Weigh IIT Madras Web MTech for its premier brand, flexible delivery and strong industry projects if you aim for cutting-edge tech roles. As cost-effective, industry-integrated alternatives, pursue BITS Pilani WILP or Mangalayatan WILP. Rely on a disciplined GATE 2027 prep plan to secure these options and keep the PhD door open. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
