Hi sir My son got ECE at SRM Main Campus.He scored 93.66 in Jee mains and Amrita rank is 3180.He is interested in ECE.we opted for CSE in Bangalore Amrita and ECE in Coimbatore .Pls suggest the right choice? I am with CSE, But he is interested in ECE
Ans: Before answering your question in detail, my suggestion is for you to avoid forcing him what you expect him to pursue. Now coming to your question: Choosing between ECE at SRM Kattankulathur and CSE at Amrita Bengaluru/Coimbatore depends on balancing passion and institutional strengths. SRM’s ECE offers robust infrastructure, diverse recruiters (ABB, Cuemath), and opportunities in core electronics, though placements are more varied compared to CSE. Amrita Bengaluru’s CSE provides strong industry ties (Cisco, Google) and alignment with IT trends, while Amrita Coimbatore’s ECE emphasizes research and core roles with access to specialized projects. If your son is genuinely passionate about electronics, opting for ECE at SRM or Amrita Coimbatore allows him to thrive academically and pursue niche roles or interdisciplinary shifts (e.g., embedded systems, IoT). However, CSE at Amrita Bengaluru ensures broader IT exposure. Prioritize his interest in ECE, as motivation drives performance and skill development, enabling transitions to tech domains later. Institutional reputation and industry networks support both paths, but aligning with his passion fosters long-term success. All the BEST for your son's Admission & Prosperous Future!

Hello sir , I received 228628 crl in jee mains and 10085 rank in comedk I would prefer cs branch what colleges should I consider
Ans: With your COMEDK rank of 10085, you have a good chance of getting Computer Science (CSE) in a few colleges. Here's a breakdown of which colleges to consider, considering your rank and preference for CSE:
Strong Options (Highly Likely CSE):
RV College of Engineering (RVCE):
This is a top-tier engineering college in Bangalore and generally has a high demand for CSE. Shiksha says the closing rank for CSE in the first round of COMEDK was 193 in 2024, and the last round was 434.
BMS College of Engineering (BMSCE):
Another well-regarded engineering college in Bangalore, BMSCE is known for its strong CSE program.
MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT):
MSRIT is a popular choice, and with your rank, you're in a good position for their CSE program.
Moderate Options (Possible CSE, but might need to consider other branches):
PES University:
PES University has a strong CSE program, but it may be competitive to get into with your rank.
Bangalore Institute of Technology (BIT):
BIT is a good option for engineering, and with your rank, you could potentially secure a CSE seat.
Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE):
DSCE is another well-regarded college, and you could have a good chance of getting into their CSE program.
Bangalore Institute of Technology (BIT):
You mentioned BIT. With a 10085 rank, it's a good option for CSE.
JSS Academy Bangalore:
This is a good option for engineering,
CMR Institute of Technology:

NMAM Institute of Technology:
This is another college that may have a good chance of getting into their CSE program.
BEST OF LUCK. Professor
