My Aadhaar and Mother's Name Don't Match: Does it Affect My NEET Registration?

Ans: HI NARAHARI,
Since you have chosen your branch, you need to select an institution or university. Please go through their websites and compare the facilities, such as faculty, labs, and syllabus. Additionally, check if they encourage students to learn both hard and soft skills. This will help you be employable by the end of the course; otherwise, you might end up wasting your time, money, and a year. So, please consider my suggestions for your comparison.
You might also consider concentrating on Computer Science Engineering (CSE). However, it can be quite difficult to get into top-tier institutions (THRU COMEDK). Based on my suggestions, you can make your own decision.

ONE REQUEST FROM ME: Kindly participate in the yoga campaign.

Ans: HI,
As a technician, one cannot claim to be a medical student. I’m not sure who misled you into pursuing the diploma course in operation theatre technology. Anyway, you now want to shift to the nursing field, which is a good choice. There are excellent prospects in this field, so you can definitely join without hesitation.

Ans: A drop year after scoring 70 percentile in JEE Main and 83% in CBSE can be beneficial only if your son is highly motivated, has identified clear areas for improvement, and is ready to commit to a disciplined preparation strategy. While a gap year gives more focused time for JEE, the success rate for droppers improving from 70 to 95+ percentile is low, with most students facing pressure, fatigue, and the risk of repeating mistakes. Many reputable private and state engineering colleges accept current scores, and strong undergraduate performance can lead to good placements and higher education opportunities. If your son is confident of significant improvement and is willing to work harder than before, a drop is reasonable; otherwise, it is better to join a good available college now and excel there, as long-term career growth depends more on skills and performance than the college brand.

Recommendation: Only take a drop if your son is fully committed, has a clear plan for improvement, and is mentally prepared for the challenges; otherwise, choose a good college now and focus on building a strong academic and professional profile. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Rashmi Madam, With a JEE Main AIR of 18,112 in the general category, your son is unlikely to secure core branches like CSE or ECE at MNIT Jaipur or IIIT Kota, as their closing ranks for these branches are typically below 5,200 and 24,000 respectively. However, he has good chances for branches like Mechanical, Civil, Metallurgical, or Chemical Engineering at MNIT Jaipur (Mechanical closes around 23,899; Chemical at 29,446), and for ECE at IIIT Kota (closing rank 34,167). Other reputable options in Rajasthan include LNM Institute of Information Technology (LNMIIT), Swami Keshvanand Institute of Technology (SKIT) Jaipur, College of Technology and Engineering Udaipur, and Jaipur Engineering College, all of which accept JEE Main scores and offer strong placements and infrastructure. Through REAP, he can also target CSE and IT in private colleges, as the expected closing rank for CSE is around 18,000.
