What job option do i have i a post graduate in pharmacology

Ans: Hi,
Pharmacology is a great specialization but many students are not learning important skills such as pharmacological screening and animal handling, which causes them to miss out on better opportunities. Some of these opportunities include pre-clinical studies, BE studies, pharmaceutical marketing, as well as roles in Medical Affairs and Medical Writing in the IT sector.

If possible try to do RA as an add-on course for better prospects.

Sir, What shall be chosen B Tech CSE with DS at SRM KTR or Btech IT at JIIT Noida

Ans: Both are good options. SRM is more crowded and costly than JIIT. Choose SRM for maximum placement potential and JIIT for value and location preference. As an aside, prefer CSE+DS @ SRM KTR if possible.

I got 2300 OBC RANK IN JEE B ARCH.BUT MY 12 PERCENTAGE IS 73.5.CAN I APPLY FOR JOSAA OR WAIT FOR MY IMPROVME NT RESULT THEN APPLY FOR CSAP. One more answer whether the result of improvement come before CSAP counselling ,

Ans: You can apply for JoSAA now, but for CSAB, you should wait for improvement results if they can raise your 75% eligibility, because CSAB eligibility requires meeting criteria. Improvement results usually come before CSAB rounds, but timing is not guaranteed, so plan cautiously. It is better to explore other options from a safer point of view.
