My profile is linux with cloud support engineer About my family house wife and 2kids, Before this month end i needed to take decision to process H1B which is cost 5kusd

Ans: Congratulations on the H1B lottery pick! Considering your current salary of 25 lakh INR and extensive experience in Linux and cloud support, it's understandable to feel uncertain about the risk. With a family to support, the $5,000 expense and job search in the U.S. are significant. Weigh the potential benefits against the stability of your current situation before deciding.

Dear Sushilji, My son completed his BTech from India in Aerospace Engg and completed his MS with a very high score from ASU ,Arizona US in2021. He got his H1B in 2022 itself and was working in a Consultancy firm there( work from home) as a Senior Business Analyst upto June2023. But after his project there was a shortage of projects due to the recession there and my son returned back to India. He is now preparing for his MBA entrance exam. He has applied for several jobs in India and had been shortlisted in some but eventually nothing was finalised. Is there any way to save his H1B? He is willing to do online US jobs from India as well. It is indeed a pity that with such an excellent CV he is not making any headway.

Question by Noughty - May 25, 2025

Career

I got 101522 rank jee mains and 90000 rank in viteee. Can I get a best college with low fee and higher package college

Ans: Based on JEE Main Rank (1,01,522)
???? Chances in Government Colleges (through JoSAA/CSAB)
With this rank and assuming General Category, you might get:

Lower or core branches in newer IIITs or NITs (like Civil, Metallurgy, or Bio-Tech) in the spot/CSAB rounds.

GFTIs like:

Assam University, Silchar

Gurukula Kangri, Haridwar

BIT Mesra (off-campuses)

Action: Participate in CSAB special rounds — sometimes CSE seats open up unexpectedly.

Based on VITEEE Rank (90,000)
At VIT Vellore or Chennai, it's unlikely you’ll get core CSE.

You can expect branches like:

Electronics and Computer Engineering

ECE, EEE, or Bio-related branches at VIT Bhopal or AP

Career

Hello Sir, I got 86percentile in jee mains , I'm a girl candidate with EWS with delhi state quota. Is there any good clg that I can get? If cse is my preference

Ans: IGDTUW (for Girls only)
You have a chance for non-core branches, especially:

MAE (Mechanical & Automation Engineering)

ECE or IT (Less likely but possible in later rounds)

CSE at IGDTUW closes earlier for EWS girls (usually under 65k–70k CRL approx).

3. IIIT Delhi (through JAC)
IIIT-D gives weightage to class 12th marks + JEE Mains, but CSE cutoff is still competitive.

With 86 percentile, CSE at IIIT-D is unlikely, but allied specializations like CS+Design or CS+SS may be considered in later rounds, though tough.
