Hello I am sakshi from east UP and a neet aspirant. I just passed out 12th and I've already taken my first drop. I am ready to give my hundred percent in this year. But actually my parents are repeatedly telling me to do bsc degree from a tier 3 college just near my house. I'll Just need to give exams and attend practicals..BUT is this even beneficial in any way..? Will I get a decent job if I am not able to clear neet by chance..? My parents are arguing that atleast you'll have a degree.. But I wanted to any kind of degree (Like bsc biotech , microbiology ) from atleast a good college for better job options..but my parents don't want me to have a "Gap" year. I am not able to process what do I do in this situation.

Ans: Hi,
500 is a good score, you can get admission with this score. If you don't want to regret then go for it. Make your parents understand.

Ans: Shyam, If you are targeting any IIT / NIT with a drop for next year (as per your parents’ wish), please note some important factors (1) During the last 2-years or 1-Year (since you completed your 10th) had you joined any Coaching Centre for JEE? (2) If not, joining Coaching Centre this year (for your JEE next year), you will have to not only cover NCERT Books, but also have to thoroughly go through all the 11th & 12th PCM concepts explained in Coaching Centre Materials (3) You will have to also practice a lot of questions / attempt mock tests / prepare short notes etc. (4) You have to prepare a fool-proof strategies as you have less than 1-year (hardly 7-8 months for your 1st JEE Exam (5) Time Management within this short period plays a crucial role. Will you be able to? (6) And, if you are targeting top IITs / NITs for you / your parents’ preferred branches, your AIR should be good. If you are CONFIDENT over all these factors, you can try for JEE next year. No Issue. NOW Coming to your interest in Design. (1) Bachelor’s Degree in Design has a diverge range of career avenues such as, Your success in Design Career depends upon your self-motivation / dedication / upgrading your skills continuously even after you land into any job (2) As you have already prepared for NID Entrance Exams, you can easily attempt again for the same with a very good score and / or you can try for the same for any other reputed Private College if it conducts its own Entrance Test. I hope I have clarified your doubt. All The BEST for your Bright Future, Shyam.
