Ans: You are lucky to have a son who has got admission in many good institutions. Sit with him and take a decision based on his interest. I can see barring one college, rest of the colleges are offering him BTech in diff shades of Computers. Let the two of you do a bit more of research and decide. Whichever college he picks his goal has to be to excel. Do also factor in the fee and hostel expenses to get him a feel of improtance of money.
