Career

Which one is better nit patna mechanical or iiit naya raipur ece

Ans: Lohith, NIT Patna’s B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, ranked 55th by NIRF 2024, achieved 100% placements in 2023–24 with top core recruiters through its placement cell. IIIT Naya Raipur’s B.Tech ECE, a 2015 GFTI, recorded about 78% placement in 2024 with an average package of ?13.9 LPA and highest ?25 LPA, driven by industry tie-ups with Deloitte, Ericsson, and others. Both offer modern campuses, but NIT Patna ME excels in placement consistency and national stature, while IIIT NR ECE offers focused electronics exposure. Recommendation: Choose NIT Patna Mechanical for assured core placements; opt for IIIT Naya Raipur ECE only if electronics specialization is your priority. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Question by Atharva - Apr 27, 2026Hindi

Career

Sir, I got 91850 Rank in JEE mains General category, I am from Maharashtra Will I get and CSE Engineering government college Central or state, But branch should be CSE or ECE

Ans: Atharva, before answering your question, I want to emphasize that all branches are good. It’s important to choose based on your interest. However, also be adaptable, as your interests might change by the 2nd or 3rd year, and consider job market trends as well.

Regarding your rank of 91,850 (General category, Maharashtra HS quota), securing CSE or ECE in top central institutes like VNIT Nagpur is highly unlikely. Other NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs (such as NIT Jalandhar and IIIT Nagpur) also have closing ranks for CSE typically between 15,000 and 30,000, so admission there for CSE/ECE is not realistic.

State options like COEP Pune or VJTI Mumbai are even more competitive and likely out of reach with this rank. You can explore lower-tier GFTIs (e.g., those related to BIT Mesra) or Maharashtra state seats through MHT-CET for IT or ECE branches as alternative options. Try through CSAB rounds also. ALL the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Career

hello sir i got 95.348 percentile in jee main and sc category rank 2659 and crl 73k with HS west bengal so Which branch at which NIT would be best for me?

Ans: Dhruba, with your CRL of 73,000, SC rank 2,659, and West Bengal as your home state, your best NIT option is NIT Durgapur. Based on recent cutoff trends, you have a good chance for NIT Durgapur in branches like CSE (though not guaranteed), Mathematics & Computing, ECE, and Electrical, especially under the home-state quota. A recommended preference order is NIT Durgapur CSE → Mathematics & Computing → ECE → Electrical → Mechanical → Chemical/Metallurgy. Also consider filling choices for NIT Patna, Jamshedpur, Silchar, Agartala, Meghalaya, and Sikkim. As backups, include IIIT Kalyani, IIIT Bhagalpur, participate in state counselling, and register for the CSAB Special Round. ALL the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Career

Hello Sir, My daughter has secure 77 percentile in Jee main we r staying in Delhi and general category....she wish to take admission in BTech.... please advice for best option to take admission...

Ans: At 77 percentile, the expected CRL is likely above 3 lakh, making admission to NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs through JoSAA highly unlikely for a Delhi General category candidate. The best practical approach is to focus on Delhi-based Counselling: You can pply for JAC Delhi for DTU, NSUT, and IGDTUW, especially as a female Delhi candidate, but manage expectations toward spot rounds or lower branches. Also consider applying for IPU B.Tech Counselling for colleges like MAIT, MSIT, BVCOE, BPIT, and GTBIT. Additionally, keep 3-4 private engineering colleges in and around Delhi as backup options rather than relying solely on JoSAA, CSAB, or JAC Delhi. ALL the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

My Son get Sc 13764 and AIR 242696 any NIT get

Ans: Based on your son's rank, securing a regular NIT seat is possible mainly in lower-demand branches and during later JoSAA or CSAB rounds, but admission to popular branches like CSE or ECE at top NITs is unlikely. Past NIT Mechanical cutoffs indicate that some lower-tier NITs admit candidates within the 8,000–18,000 SC rank range. It is important to fill all possible JoSAA and CSAB choices, keep options open for every branch, and prioritize lower-demand NITs and GFTIs. Additionally, reviewing JoSAA opening and closing ranks from the past 2–3 years will provide valuable insights to help your son confidently select and maximize his preferred choices.

My ward scored 70 percentile in jee mains and scored 78 percentage in boards and my ward wants to pursue mechanical engineering what are the best government colleges in India

Ans: You have not mentioned your son's home state or his category either. With 70 percentile and 78% board marks, your ward can realistically target lower-demand branches like Mechanical in some state government colleges and a few GFTIs. However, admission to Mechanical branches in NITs or IIITs is generally out of reach based on recent JoSAA trends. Suitable government options include SLIET Longowal, Assam University, Mizoram University, HNB Garhwal, Gurukula Kangri, JEC Jabalpur, IET Lucknow, and BIET Jhansi, depending on category, state quota, and counselling rounds. While some newer NITs may admit candidates with higher ranks for lower-demand branches, Mechanical usually requires a much better rank than what a 70 percentile typically corresponds to. It is better to have backup options of 3-4 Private Engineering Colleges in and around your State instead of relying only on JoSAA/CSAB. ALL the BEST for Your Ward's Prosperous Future!

Question by Abhinav - Apr 27, 2026Hindi

Career

Sir I got 235615 in JEE Mains (General), home state Maharashtra. Can i get any GFTI in Any state with Mechanical or Electronics and Computer Engineering??

Ans: Abhinav, With a CRL of 2,35,615 in the General category from Maharashtra, regular JoSAA admission chances for Mechanical, Electronics, or CSE branches in GFTIs are very low. In 2025, closing ranks for accessible GFTI Mechanical branches like SGSITS Mechanical were around 47,041, and ECE branches mostly closed between 61,000 and 72,000, which are well below your rank. Nonetheless, you should register for JoSAA and the CSAB Special Round, as CSAB fills vacant seats after JoSAA. Backup options you must have include MHT-CET/CAP counselling for Maharashtra colleges and private engineering colleges in and around Maharashtra for CSE, ECE, Mechanical, and E&TC branches.

Ans: He should definitely fill JoSAA choices and consider all branches, especially lower-demand engineering branches in GFTIs. Additionally, he should explore home-state government colleges through state counselling and actively participate in CSAB rounds to maximize admission opportunities. If possible, have 3-4 Private Engineering Colleges in and around your State also as backups. ALL the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!
