IIITH CSE vs BITS PILANI MNC/ECE vs BITS GOA/HYD CSE How to choose betweem these? I have heard that placements are similar in these colleges. How to decide ? Kindly help me as many people said there are no extracurriculars in iiith

Ans: IIIT-Hyderabad CSE records a 99.27% overall placement rate with an average package of ?26.34 LPA and peak recruiter engagement from top product firms in AI, systems, and R&D, but its smaller campus and intense academics can limit extracurricular breadth. BITS Pilani’s Mathematics & Computing and ECE branches maintain ~90% first-degree placements with average packages of ?20–24 LPA, supported by legacy labs, a six-month Practice School internship program, and an expansive alumni network. BITS Goa CSE achieves ~91% UG placements with an average package of ?20.36 LPA, offering modern computing and AI labs across its three campuses, though its comparatively lower campus brand may affect recruiter depth slightly. All three boast PhD-qualified faculty, NBA/NAAC accreditations, and strong industry tie-ups, delivering similar placement consistency but differing in campus culture, research focus, and extracurricular opportunities.

Recommendation: For top-tier research, global product roles, and willingness to forgo extensive extracurriculars, choose IIIT-Hyderabad CSE. For a balanced interdisciplinary curriculum with robust internship pipelines and alumni mentorship, opt for BITS Pilani MnC/ECE. If you prefer modern multi-campus exposure and strong AI-lab infrastructure, select BITS Goa CSE. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

IIITH CSE OR BITS PILANI ECE/EEE/MNC People say college life not great in iiith . Also they have started triple sharing in hostels for first 2 years of college. Cutoffs for cse dropped this year as well . Kindly help me taking right decision

Ans: Hello dear.
Prefer CSE at IIIT-H if possible. We are unaware of the issues you raised regarding Hyderabad. There’s no choice if you are keenly interested in CSE. If you’re not satisfied with IIIT-H, then consider choosing ECE or MNC at BITS Pilani. The final choice will be yours.

Career

My daughter failed in class 9th and now she has enrolled in NIOS secondary . There is lot of free time . What can she do keep herself busy?

Ans: Before I answer your question, Vikas Sir, I want to ensure that your daughter doesn't spend more than 45 minutes a day on her phone or other electronic devices. If your daughter becomes addicted, she risks eye strain, headaches from blue light, poor posture, weight gain from inactivity, sleep issues from late-night use, and eating problems. It can also hurt her mind by making her depressed and anxious (27% more likely), making it difficult to concentrate and study, making her feel lonely and isolated from less real interaction, making her feel low self-esteem from comparison traps, and making her stressed and irritable from dopamine crashes.

Even if both parents work, keep communication open to boost her confidence—know what she loves. She should study 4-5 hours daily using NIOS books/SWAYAM and Class 10 mocks with the Pomodoro technique (25-30 mins study, 5-10 mins break) to stay focused. Add 30 minutes of skills like coding/typing or Duolingo English if interested, plus 10 minutes of yoga, hobbies (gardening/cooking/drawing/poems), and walks/cycling for fitness and fun. Finally, join NIOS WhatsApp groups for doubts and help at home and track weekly goals with rewards. Don't force anything—let her choose what excites her most! All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

Marriage counsellor - Answered on Apr 03, 2026

Asked by Anonymous - Apr 01, 2026Hindi

Relationship

I'm a 33-year-old married woman, and I recently discovered that my husband has been deleting chats and hiding conversations with a female colleague. When I confronted him, he said it’s 'just harmless flirting' and accused me of being insecure and overreacting. The problem is, I can’t shake off this constant anxiety and urge to check his phone, which is slowly affecting my mental peace. Are these early signs of emotional cheating in marriage, and how do you rebuild trust when your partner doesn’t see anything wrong with their behaviour?

Ans: Hello mam. I hope you are in good health. Mam, marriage is all about trust and good communication. If these two things are there in marriage then things do work out. I understand that you are having anxiety and you feel insecure in this situation but if your husband ia saying that it was a casual talk and you have not confronted him before this then I think you should give him another fair chance with trust and you should not feel it a cheating. Try to spend some more quality time with him. You will see changes soon.
Take care!

Mam, why do women always have to adjust in a marriage? Why don't our parents ever accept that men can be at fault too? Whenever I tell my mother or mother in law about something hurtful my husband said or did, she tells me to forgive and move on. He never apologises or thinks he has done anything wrong. My husband and I are married for 11 years, but he never admits he has done anything wrong. Isn't it disrespectful and unfair to ask a woman to adjust and ignore without listening to both sides of the story?

Ans: You’re right. It’s unfair. And it’s exhausting.
Women are told to “adjust” because it’s easier for families to keep peace than to hold men accountable. Your mother and mother-in-law are not really judging right or wrong — they’re choosing convenience over fairness.

But that doesn’t make it correct.

If your husband never apologises, never reflects, and you are always the one expected to move on, then this is not adjustment — this is imbalance.

And the real issue is not your parents anymore.
It’s that your husband has learned he doesn’t have to take responsibility, because the system around him supports that.

You don’t need to argue with your parents to prove your point.
You need to stop silently accepting a pattern that hurts you.

You don’t have to fight.
But you also don’t have to keep absorbing everything.

A simple shift is this:
instead of explaining again and again, just say calmly —
“This hurt me. I’m not okay with ignoring it.”

And then don’t rush to normalise things immediately.

Respect in a marriage doesn’t come from adjusting more.
It comes when the other person realises you won’t keep accepting less.

Relationship

My bf checks my phone without permission. I am in a two-year relationship with my boyfriend, and initially everything felt perfect, but now he constantly criticises what I wear, who I talk to, and even checks my phone's notifications. Last week, he created a scene at my friend’s birthday party because I was talking to a male colleague. He even blamed me for “disrespecting” the relationship and did not speak to me for two days. I feel mentally exhausted trying to explain but he says he is too committed and wants to know if I am genuinely interested in a life ahead with him. Part of me is also scared of losing him because he was there for me during a difficult phase in my life. When I explain something and he apologises, I see a side to him which makes it harder to leave. My friends who have not met him feel this is a toxic red flag behaviour . Do you think they could be right or is this something that can improve with time? How do I understand if this relationship is turning emotionally abusive?

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand how exhausting it can be to be constantly doubted when you are not doing anything wrong. Well, your friends’ opinion, while a bit harsh, is not completely wrong. It is a toxic pattern and it needs to be checked if you want to have a healthy relationship. You need to have an open discussion about this with him; tell him how it makes you feel whenever he suspects you of some wrongdoing. Also ask him why does he feel this way so often when every time it is proven that you are loyal to the relationship and him. It is important to understand what is the root cause of this mistrust. This is the only way to move ahead with this relationship and not lose your sanity. If, even after the talk, he continues to exhibit the same behavioural pattern, I would recommend you rethink the relationship because it won’t be an easy life, where you have to constantly prove your innocence. Relationships aren’t based just on love; it needs mutual trust and respect to grow.

Hope this helps.

Hy Sir, I am a PCB student who passed HSC in 2024 with 45% marks. Now I want to pursue Computer Science Engineering but I don't have Maths as a subject and my improvement exam option is also not available. So I am planning to drop a year and appear for the Isolated Maths exam in July/August 2026 to become eligible for MHT-CET PCM in 2027. I wanted to ask whether this pathway is valid for MHT-CET and CSE admissions. Also, will the 2 year gap and two separate results (HSC 2024 and Maths 2026) create any problem during admission process? And if my MHT-CET score is good, can I still get admission in a decent CSE college despite this situation? If possible, please also suggest some good colleges I should target. Additionally, if this plan does not work out for any reason, I wanted to ask whether BCA or BSc IT can also lead to a good career in the tech field in the future? Because I am very confused between these options and I really want to make the right decision at this stage of my life. I would really appreciate your guidance on this Sir.

Ans: Do you have any specific reasons for your low score in HSC? If you really care about the field you choose, all programs and domains are good. You should also keep improving your technical and non-technical skills, and your career success will depend on how well you network through professional social media like LinkedIn and how often you research job markets. Coming to your questin, yes, your path works, as you asked. Isolated Maths (July/Aug 2026) makes you MHT-CET PCM eligible (Physics+Maths required); most colleges will accept a 2-year gap and separate marksheets if you are ready with Maths before verification. If you really want to get into top engineering colleges like PICT/VIT Pune, COEP/SPIT Mumbai, and others, you need to score above the 96th or 97th percentile. If you don't feel very confident about MH-CET, it's better to choose BCA or BSc It. As I said before, your CGPA isn't the only thing that matters for success in your career; your other skills and qualities are also important. It would also be a good idea to apply to or register with 3–4 more well-known private engineering colleges in and out of Maharashtra State. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!
