Career

so, ill be eligible for MSc programs? if i do BS Data science online course of IIT-M as pcb without maths?

Ans: Unfortunately, you will not be eligible for most MSc programs in IITs (like MSc in Mathematics, Physics, Data Science, or Statistics) if you are from a PCB background and don’t have Mathematics in 10+2, even if you complete the online BS in Data Science from IIT Madras.

Ans: Great question.
No, currently you are not eligible for M.Tech in IITs through GATE if you have only the BS in Data Science from IIT Madras and do not have Mathematics in 10+2 or a BSc/BTech degree with core Mathematics and relevant engineering subjects.

Career

I got 155 in met and 76.17 in hsc(Maharashtra board) can I get data science ? at manipal main campus

Ans: Aryash, With a MET score of 155 and 76.17% in HSC (Maharashtra board), admission to Manipal’s main campus for B.Tech Data Science depends on your MET rank relative to past cutoffs, which have ranged around 35,000–48,000 in recent years. Meeting the minimum 45% in 12th with required subjects satisfies eligibility, but admission is primarily rank-based. Your MET score may or may not secure a seat at the main campus. If not eligible for the main campus, consider Manipal University Jaipur or other campuses with slightly relaxed criteria for Data Science. All the best for your admission and a bright future!

Im planning to give iat exam for iiser what rank should i aim for to get admission into iiser mohali or pune and what minimum rank to aim for to get admission into any iiser as a kashmiri migrant holding a valid migrant certificate

Ans: For IISER Pune/Mohali, aim safely for IAT AIR under 1,000–1,500 in general merit. Pune is usually more competitive than Mohali. For Kashmiri Migrants (KMs), the target can be much more relaxed, but seats are very limited, so do not depend only on the quota. In 2025 Round 1 trend data, KM closing ranks were around 6,037 for Pune, 10,106 for Mohali, and up to 25,127 for some IISER/program options.

Officially, IISER 2026 accepts KM candidates with valid documents/certificates as per brochure rules.

Practical targets are Pune/Mohali under a 6,000–10,000 rank and any other IISERs with less than a 20,000–25,000 rank. All the Best for Your Prosperous Future!

I got 91 percentile in jee mains Can I get admission in symbiosis pune

Ans: For CSE / AI-ML / IT, 91 percentile is a borderline-to-moderate chance; admission depends on applications, merit list, and seat availability. Third-party 2026 trend sources place the expected CSE/AI-ML cutoff around the 90–94 percentile, but SIT does not publish a complete official last-2-year closing-rank table. Apply to SIT Pune (all branches), plus MIT-WPU, Bharati Vidyapeeth Pune, DY Patil Pune and 2-3 other private colleges also as backups. All the Best for Your Prosperous Future!

Question by Nagarjuna - May 11, 2026Hindi

Career

sir my home state is Tamilnadu my VITEEE Rank is 37362 and AEEE 5819. kindly help me know the possibilities of CSE or ECE

Ans: Nagarjuna, with VITEEE rank 37,362, VIT Vellore CSE/ECE is difficult. VIT Chennai CSE Core is also doubtful, but CSE specialisations may be possible in Category 5, as past trend sources show Chennai CSE-specialisation going up to around 42,000, while Chennai CSE Core is around 34,000. VIT’s official site confirms the category-wise fee/counselling structure.

With AEEE rank 5,819 and Tamil Nadu as your home state, Amrita looks stronger. CSE/ECE chances are good at Amritapuri/Chennai/Amaravati, and ECE may be possible even at Coimbatore/Bengaluru, depending on slab/round. 2025 trends show ECE and CSE-specialisations extending further than core CSE on some campuses.

Best order: Amrita CSE/CSE-specialisation → Amrita ECE → VIT Chennai CSE-specialisation → VIT-AP/Bhopal CSE. All the Best for Your Prosperous Future!

Career

My son got AEEE rank in Amrita university 11534 and JEE mains percentile 93 chances is there to get CSE cybersecurity orECE in amrita university

Ans: At AEEE rank 11,534 and JEE Main 93 percentile, your son has reasonable chances for ECE at Amrita, especially at Amritapuri, Bengaluru, Chennai, Amaravati or newer campuses. For CSE Cybersecurity, chances are moderate to difficult at Coimbatore/Bengaluru but possible in Amritapuri/Chennai/Amaravati in higher fee slabs, depending on counselling round, quota, and seat availability. Amrita confirms that B.Tech admissions consider AEEE and JEE Main, and fee slabs 1–4 depend on exam performance. Suggested preference: CSE Cybersecurity Amritapuri/Chennai/Amaravati → ECE Bengaluru/Amritapuri/Coimbatore → CSE-related lower campuses → 2-3 backups of other private colleges. All the Best for Your Son's Prosperous Future!
