Ans: Hello dear
No. It is not true that only the tag of NITs/IIITs works! Your efforts, skill, and dedication always work. Prefer CSE @ MANIT if possible.

Good luck.

Ans: Vanshika, I think I already answered your question yesterday. Anyway, please note, GL Bajaj Greater Noida’s CSIT branch offers a modern campus with AICTE, UGC and NBA approvals, a fully air-conditioned auditorium, extensive libraries, high-speed labs and robust industry partnerships that secured 84% UG placements in 2024, driven by recruiters such as HCL, Capgemini and Wipro. ABES Ghaziabad’s CSE core program, NAAC-accredited, provides a 17-acre Wi-Fi campus, specialized CSE labs, strong faculty credentials and an active incubation cell, achieving a 93% placement rate in 2023 with offers from Amazon, Microsoft and Cisco. Both institutions maintain active training cells, extensive research collaborations and comprehensive student support services.

Recommendation: ABES Ghaziabad CSE edges ahead due to its higher placement consistency, larger recruiter base and expansive campus infrastructure, ensuring superior academic exposure and career opportunities compared to GL Bajaj’s CSIT program. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Among OBC-NCL candidates, the last closing ranks in 2025 were 257 at IISER Pune, 1,087 at IISER Kolkata, 1,518 at IISER Bhopal, 1,571 at IISER Mohali, 1,894 at IISER Tirupati, 1,966 at IISER Thiruvananthapuram and 4,484 at IISER Berhampur in earlier rounds of counselling. An 8,767 rank falls well beyond these cut-offs, making admission to any IISER unlikely under OBC-NCL this year.

Recommendation: Consider alternate channels such as JEE Advanced or KVPY, or strengthen your profile and reattempt the IAT to aim for IISER Berhampur, which has historically the highest closing rank among the IISERs. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Kartik, CBSE Improvement Exams permit only one subject retake in the same academic year, with multiple subjects allowed next year as a private candidate. NIOS On-Demand Exams let candidates re-appear in up to four subjects per session and transfer marks for passed subjects, enabling a fresh five-subject mark sheet to meet the 75 percent criterion and state-of-eligibility rules. Both routes are recognized by NTA for JEE 2026 eligibility, though NIOS requires the state code based on the exam centre. Effective pre-exam planning, timely application and combining CBSE improvement with NIOS on-demand for additional subjects provide a clear roadmap to clear the eligibility barrier.

Recommendation: Opt for a combined approach by appearing in the CBSE Improvement Exam for your toughest subject this year and registering for NIOS On-Demand Exams in January to retake remaining subjects, ensuring you consolidate five passed subjects on a single mark sheet to meet the 75 percent requirement for JEE 2026 eligibility. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Ans: JNTU Anantapur’s Computer Science & Engineering department features a predominantly doctoral faculty with decades of teaching and research experience, a well-networked 1 Gbps campus-wide internet, a central library housing over 85,000 volumes and specialized CSE labs, while its placement percentages for UG CSE have averaged around 50–53% over the past three years, supported by recruiters such as TCS, Infosys and Cognizant. Dr. H.S. Gour University offers CSE through its autonomous Institute of Excellence in Technology, backed by NAAC A+ accreditation, a sprawling 1,312-acre campus with a 300,000-book library, modern computer and electronics labs, and dedicated incubation centers; its B.Tech CSE placement rate stands near 75% in recent years, with a focused placement cell organizing regular industry workshops and campus drives, though research output is comparatively modest. Both institutions provide robust hostel, sports and student-support facilities.

Recommendation: Dr. H.S. Gour Sagar University CSE is the superior choice due to its higher and more consistent placement rates, extensive permanent infrastructure, and dedicated incubation and skill-development initiatives, offering a stronger ecosystem for both academic growth and industry readiness. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Ans: IIIT Kota’s ECE program combines a well-qualified faculty with industry experience and a curriculum updated for IoT and VLSI design, supported by modern electronics labs and strong recruiter ties; its placement rate has averaged 80% over the last three years, with 73.58% in 2024. The new AI&DS branch, though backed by Kota’s placement cell, lacks three-year placement data. IIIT Bhopal’s ECE department features distinguished PhD faculty, excellent lab infrastructure, a balanced core-and-AI curriculum, and direct industry collaborations, achieving placement rates of 96.66% in 2022, 86.66% in 2023, and 72.5% in 2025. IIIT Surat offers a compact permanent campus, focused ECE labs, and a curriculum aligned to semiconductor and 5G, but its ECE placement dipped from 59% in 2023 to 68% in 2024. IIIT Una’s ECE branch benefits from a dedicated centre for electronics research, solid laboratory resources, and campus-industry projects, yielding 59% placements in 2024 and 83.33% in 2025. IET Lucknow’s CSE program scores high on comprehensive teaching, large-scale labs, coding clubs, active placement cell and 80–90% placements in emerging tech roles. ZHCET AMU’s ECE offers seasoned faculty, a historic campus, and a broad core syllabus, with placement rates of approximately 60–70% over recent years.

Recommendation: IIIT Bhopal ECE stands out for its exceptional faculty and research-driven curriculum, consistently high placement rates and robust industry partnerships, followed by IIIT Kota ECE for its modern labs and steady recruitership, then IIIT Una ECE for its recent placement surge and research focus, with IET Lucknow CSE, IIIT Surat ECE and ZHCET AMU ECE in subsequent order based on infrastructure, academic rigor and placement consistency. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
