Neelkanth Question by Neelkanth on Jun 23, 2025Hindi

Sir we are interested in VIT AP and SRM AP with 7500 rank in AP EAMCET for open category can we expect ECE VLSI. Which is the better college SRM AP or VIT AP

Ans: With a 7,500 AP EAMCET rank in the open category, you are unlikely to get ECE (VLSI) at SRM AP, as the 2024 closing rank for ECE was 4,976, while VIT AP’s ECE (VLSI) closed at 2,734 last year, making both options difficult at your current rank. However, cutoffs can fluctuate in later rounds, so it is still advisable to participate in counselling. Comparing the two, SRM AP is rated slightly higher by students (4.2/5 vs. VIT AP’s 4.0/5), offers a more established campus, better-developed infrastructure, and a strong interdisciplinary curriculum with global tie-ups and industry-oriented teaching. VIT AP benefits from a joint placement program with VIT Vellore, giving access to a broader recruiter base and a flexible, industry-aligned curriculum, though its campus is newer and still developing. Both universities have highly qualified faculty, modern labs, and good placement records, but SRM AP is praised for its vibrant campus life and innovative pedagogy, while VIT AP’s placement ecosystem is more mature due to VIT Vellore’s legacy.

The recommendation is to keep both options open in counselling, but prioritize SRM AP for its more established campus, student satisfaction, and interdisciplinary approach, while considering VIT AP if placement opportunities and flexible curriculum are your top priorities, as both are strong choices in Andhra Pradesh’s private engineering landscape. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Good evening sir, got vit ap ece vlsi with 45000 rank in vitjee 2025 and got SRM jee phase 2 rank as 11900 and expecting ece at SRM ktr campus.... Will i get ece SRM ktr campus and which one is better vit ap ece vlsi or SRM ktr ece
Ans: With a SRMJEEE Phase 2 rank of 11,900, you fall well within SRM Kattankulathur’s Electronics and Communication Engineering cutoff of 22,000–27,000, making admission likely. VIT-AP’s ECE (VLSI) program benefits from Institute of Eminence status, UGC approval, and NAAC accreditation, global MoUs with Purdue and SUNY, and a 100-acre Wi-Fi campus featuring digital classrooms and specialized VLSI labs. Its School of Electronics Engineering comprises over 40 PhD-qualified faculty active in VLSI, embedded systems, and communications research. VIT-AP’s centralized placement cell achieves 80–90% placements annually. SRM KTR’s ECE department, NAAC A++ accredited since 1985, offers a CBCS curriculum, 15+ research-active PhD faculty, and advanced electronics and VLSI laboratories. Its placement cell secures approximately 88% ECE placements over the past three years, with 980+ recruiters including Microsoft, Google, and Amazon.

Recommendation:
For cutting-edge VLSI specialization with high research exposure and global partnerships, recommendation is VIT-AP ECE (VLSI). For broader industry integration, stronger metropolitan brand recognition, and diverse recruiter engagement, recommendation is SRM KTR ECE. Both deliver robust faculty, infrastructure, and placement support—choose based on your preference for research focus versus campus ecosystem. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

My daughter is getting CSE(Cyber Security) in BIT Sindri and lower branches in Tier 2 NITs. What should we choose ?
Ans: BIT Sindri’s CSE with a Cyber Security specialization is NBA-accredited, supported by faculty research in cryptography and intrusion detection, state-of-the-art security, networking and forensics labs, and a centralized Career Development Centre that placed 484 B.Tech students (≈95%) with top recruiters over three years. NIT Uttarakhand’s CSE offers average placement consistency of 61.11% and median package of ?9.54 LPA, along with foundational programming, AI/ML labs and internships via its placement cell. NIT Meghalaya’s CSE achieved a 79.6% placement rate, average package ?9.7 LPA, modern computing and embedded-systems facilities, and a dedicated Centre for Career Development. NIT Sikkim’s CSE records 90–95% placements with an average package of ?9–10 LPA, strong internship support and high-performance computing labs. All institutes hold AICTE approval, research collaborations and active industry tie-ups to bolster employability.

For specialized Cyber Security education with exceptional placement consistency and advanced security labs, recommendation is BIT Sindri CSE (Cyber Security). If broader core-CSE roles at a Tier-2 NIT are preferred, consider NIT Sikkim CSE for its high placement rate, followed by NIT Meghalaya CSE, and NIT Uttarakhand CSE for solid infrastructure and emerging AI focus. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello sir please suggest me for my son he has taken biology physics and chemistry intermediate board at Telangana attempted long-term neet this year but couldn't get rank but qualified neet he doesn't want to do mbbs at management quota which will be too costly as u know around 1.5 cr. So he wants to pursue Btech program computer science and he approached woxsen university hyderabad and they have given seat under management quota with training of mathematics course please suggest is it a good decision and also woxsen university is good for future prospects or otherwise can u suggest good university where he can be accepted since he is science student thanq
Ans: Woxsen University’s AICTE- and UGC-approved B.Tech CSE program offers industry-benchmarked curriculum, advanced AI/ML and cloud labs, guaranteed bridging mathematics training for PCB background students, extensive corporate partnerships, mandatory internships, 97% placement assistance and scholarships up to 50%. However, high management-quota fees, rural campus setting, nascent brand recognition, variable faculty experience and limited peer alumni network may pose challenges. Alliance University Bangalore features flexible foundation-to-engineering pathways and global exchange ties but commands steep fees. Sharda University Greater Noida integrates PCM refresher modules, industry projects and 90% placement consistency yet experiences overcrowded cohorts. Galgotias University Greater Noida admits PCB students with crash-course support, maintains modern software labs and 85% placements but faces accreditation lags. SRM University AP, Andhra Pradesh implements rigorous math bridging, offers strong CSE infrastructure and 90% placement rates, although distance from major tech hubs may limit industry exposure. For a balanced mix of guaranteed math preparation, cutting-edge labs and strong corporate engagement, recommendation is Woxsen University CSE under management quota. Should cost or brand emerge as higher priorities, consider other colleges mentioned above. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir Namaste,I am a class 10 student and I am going to attend the board exam the next year. Actually, I am a very intelligent person and aiming for 500 marks but I have still not covered any chapter in an organised way but I have read most of them for my school unit tests e. t. c. Please give some advice on how to study? What to study? When to study? And some additional tips.
Ans: Hello dear.
On one hand, you say "I am a very intelligent person," and on the other hand, you ask, "How to study? What to study? When to study?" while also requesting some extra tips. If you are so intelligent, then why haven't you covered the syllabus in an organized manner? I believe you are a completely confused student who keeps saying, "I am very intelligent."

Here are some key points for you:
Start by creating a subject-wise timetable that covers all chapters for the next 2–3 months, dedicating more time to weaker areas. Study at least 6 hours daily, divided into 2-hour blocks with short breaks, and gradually increase your study time. In each session, revise a chapter using NCERT books first, then solve previous years' board questions and sample papers. Make short notes or flashcards while revising, especially for formulas, dates, and definitions. Use mornings for subjects requiring high focus, like Maths and Science, and evenings for theoretical subjects like SST and Hindi. On Sundays, revise everything you've studied during the week and take at least one full-length mock test every two weeks. Stay consistent, avoid distractions, and track your progress with a checklist. Lastly, don’t stress; confidence, consistency, and clarity will help you reach your 500-mark goal.

Good luck!
Follow me if you like this reply. Thanks!
