How is Amity University Bangalore Devanhalli campus..is it good for btech as it is newly opened and first batch will graduate in 2027

Ans: Aryan, Yes, NIT Hamirpur B.Arch is possible but not guaranteed. In 2024, NIT Hamirpur B.Arch Home State closing rank was around 5973, so as a Himachal female OBC candidate with rank 5000, you have a fair chance, especially in later JoSAA/CSAB rounds. Also fill NIT Patna, NIT Raipur, MANIT Bhopal, SPA Bhopal/Vijayawada/Delhi if eligible, plus CSAB Special Round. Keep state/private architecture colleges as backup. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Ans: Based on your daughter's score, NIT Warangal CSE/AI is unlikely. 2024 HS female CSE closed around 4,625, and CSE–AI/Data Science around 3,387. NIT Warangal EEE/ECE may be borderline-to-difficult, but keep them high. Better realistic choices are NIT Calicut, NIT Rourkela, NIT Durgapur, NIT Delhi, NIT Jalandhar, NIT Kurukshetra for ECE/EE, and newer NITs for CSE/AI-related branches. For IIITs, try IIIT Gwalior, Jabalpur, Lucknow, Guwahati, Kottayam, Sri City, Nagpur, Pune, and Ranchi for CSE/ECE. Additionally, reviewing JoSAA opening and closing ranks from the past 2–3 years will provide valuable insights and help your daughter confidently select and fill her preferred & maximum number of choices. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

Ans: You have not mentioned your home state. Anyway, please note that based on your score, core CSE in NITs is difficult, except possibly in lower-demand/newer NITs only through CSAB if vacancies arise. Your better chances for CSE/IT are in newer IIITs/GFTIs such as IIIT Bhagalpur, IIIT Bhopal, IIIT Kottayam, IIIT Una, IIIT Kalyani, IIIT Dharwad, IIIT Nagpur, IIIT Ranchi depending on round/year. In NITs, prefer ECE/EE if the college tag matters. Fill out the maximum number of choices in JoSAA. Also apply to CSAB, state counselling, and 3-4 other reputed private engineering colleges. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Ans: Based on your score, chances in regular JoSAA rounds for NIT/IIIT are very low. The best chance through JoSAA/CSAB may be GFTIs, especially NIAMT Ranchi or Central University of Jharkhand, in lower/core branches if vacancies remain. It is advisable to have backup options such as Jharkhand state counselling, BIT Sindri, UCET Hazaribagh, private colleges in Jharkhand/Bihar/UP. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Ans: Syam Sir, between the two SNU campuses, SNU Delhi-NCR is still better overall due to its established reputation, stronger industry connections in the NCR job hub, better placement records, and more experienced faculty. SNU Chennai is the newer campus with modern facilities and good potential, but it's still building up. If your son doesn't have stronger options, then SNU Chennai makes a good backup. He can fill choices like NIT AP CSE, ECE, EEE, along with IIIT Sri City, IIIT Kottayam, IIIT Dharwad, IIIT Kurnool, IIIT Bhagalpur, and IIIT Raichur for CSE/ECE if cutoffs permit. Also apply through CSAB Special Rounds, where vacancies may improve chances. It is also advisable to have the backup of options of AP EAPCET colleges along with 4-5 other reputed private engineering colleges instead of relying only on JoSAA/CSAB. All the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!

Ans: Rahul Sir, before I suggest which NIT, IIIT, or GFTI your son might get into—and which branch could suit him—let me share a quick thought. All branches are good if he's genuinely interested in one. The real key is keeping his skills sharp (tech and soft skills), building a strong professional profile over the next 4 years, networking smartly with classmates, alumni, and pros in his field, staying active on LinkedIn, and tracking job trends on career sites. If his interests shift in 2nd or 3rd year—or job markets change—he should adapt. Joining a good college matters, but his success hinges on these steps. Now answering your question: Your son has good chances for ECE/EE in several NITs/IIITs, but CSE in top NITs is difficult. Still, he can try. For CSE/IT, target IIIT Sonepat, IIIT Una, IIIT Kota, IIIT Guwahati, IIIT Kalyani, IIIT Sri City, IIIT Vadodara, IIIT Bhopal/Surat/Nagpur depending on the year-wise cutoff. For ECE/Electronics, chances are better in NIT Jalandhar, NIT Hamirpur, NIT Delhi, NIT Patna, NIT Raipur, NIT Durgapur, NIT Silchar, NIT Goa, NIT Meghalaya, NIT Agartala. For Electrical, he may get stronger NIT options like NIT Bhopal, Durgapur, Patna, Raipur, Jalandhar, Silchar. Additionally, reviewing JoSAA opening and closing ranks from the past 2–3 years will provide valuable insights and help your son confidently select and fill his preferred & maximum number of choices. It is also advisable to have backup options of 4-5 reputed Private Engineering Colleges in and around your son's Home State. All the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!

Ans: HI JITESH,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!

To change any details at the Aadhar center, make sure to CARRY all the required documents for both yourself and your father as proof. It's important to match all your identification documents, such as your Voter ID, PAN Card, Aadhar, bank account information, ration card, and vehicle license ID, based on your birth certificate. Failing to do so may lead to issues later on. While linking all these IDs, ensure that every detail matches correctly.

BEST WISHES.

Ans: HI HARJAT,

Ans: HI SACHIN,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!

It can be quite difficult to secure a seat in top or mid-tier National Law Universities (NLUs) based on general category rank. However, there are possibilities for admission at the following NLUs in later rounds:

- MNLU Aurangabad
- HPNLU Shimla
- NLUJA Assam
- DBRANLU Sonepat
- IIULER Goa

Since you mentioned that your son has already been admitted to SLS, you may want to consider this as a safer option. However, he may also have a chance of getting a seat at INLU, so it's best to wait for their results. Based on those results, you can decide whether to proceed with INLU (BETTER).

BEST WISHES.
