Sir namaste Should I consider Polaris School of Technology for B tech cse as it is a new gen tech school Please discuss pros and cons also if I join this college and what should be my strategy after joining here Your words will be very valuable for me to pursue my education here
Ans: Polaris School of Technology, established in 2024, represents a bold venture by Classplus founders Mukul Rustagi and Bhaswat Agarwal to revolutionize tech education through an industry-integrated BTech CSE program. Located in Bangalore's Electronic City and backed by prominent investors including Sourav Ganguly and Swiggy's founder, PST offers a unique curriculum featuring 5,000 hours of live coding, early internships from second year, and corporate campus experience with modern infrastructure including smart classrooms, labs, hostel facilities, and sports amenities. The college maintains strong industry partnerships with top recruiters like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Meesho, and BlinkIt, offering internship stipends averaging INR 1.8 lakhs with highest reaching INR 2.5 lakhs, though comprehensive placement data remains unavailable due to its recent establishment. Student reviews highlight exceptional project-based learning where first-year students develop AI chatbots and fitness apps, participate in hackathons, and work with live clients, distinguishing them significantly from traditional engineering programs. Faculty comprises IIT alumni and industry leaders providing personalized mentorship, while innovative features include Polaris Tech Combinator offering up to $10,000 seed funding for student startups, exclusive tech talks from industry leaders, and specialized bootcamps. However, the total fee of INR 25 lakhs is substantial, and being a newly established institution carries inherent risks regarding long-term brand recognition and consistent placement outcomes compared to established engineering colleges. To maximize success at PST, students should leverage platforms like LeetCode, HackerRank, and Coursera for competitive programming, pursue Google Career Certificates and specialized certifications in AI/ML through edX and Udacity, participate actively in hackathons using resources like GeeksforGeeks, and build strong GitHub portfolios while engaging with the college's unique industry-integrated opportunities.

Recommendation:
PST offers exceptional industry integration and innovative learning, ideal for students seeking cutting-edge tech education. However, consider the premium fees and newness factor. Success strategy: leverage coding platforms, pursue industry certifications, and maximize hackathon participation. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Dear Naveenn Ji I am 61 yrs old-retired person. I had cardiac procedure with pacemaker 3 yrs back. I had one Medical insurance which was quite useful and was just sufficient at that time to meet expenses. Now I want to enhance the limit say from 10 lac to 20 lac which is not happening with the existing one. Can you suggest what best can be done and how for medical expenses
Ans: We will need to check with different health insurance companies and share your case history in detail. There are chances of getting a policy, but it depends on the underwriter’s assessment. Age, any other medical conditions, pre-existing diseases and the severity of the earlier cardiac issue all play a role.

Sometimes insurers give a counter-offer with a higher premium, a co-payment clause or a permanent exclusion for heart-related conditions while covering everything else.
We also need to check whether porting is possible or if a fresh policy is better.

One important point: please do not cancel your existing policy under any circumstance until a new cover is issued and active.

Alongside insurance, it is always wise to keep a reasonable emergency fund in liquid form such as fixed deposits or liquid mutual funds to handle any immediate medical requirement.

please feel free to ask any further questions you can connect us 044-31683550 if facing any problem

Sir I have 5 subject in Nios board class 12 in 2026 and the subject names is Physics, Maths, English, Physical Education and in place of Chemistry is Biotechnology or vocational subject Valid for JOSSA 2026 So it will be eligible for Jossa Counselling For BTech in IITs or NITs+System According to JOSSA COUNSELLING 2025 Annexure 2(a)Annexure 2(b) The marks scored in the following five subjects will be considered for calculating the aggregate marks and the cut-off marks for fulfilling the top 20 percentile criterion. Candidates must also pass each of the following subjects in Class XII (or equivalent) to qualify for admission to the NIT+ System: o For B.E./B.Tech. programmes i. Physics ii. Any one of Chemistry, Biology, Biotechnology, Technical Vocation subject iii. Mathematics iv. A language (if the candidate has taken more than one language, then the language with the higher marks will be considered) v. Any subject other than the above four (the subject with the highest marks will be considered). Please Guide Me Sir
Ans: Your question is unclear because you have combined many queries into one. However, I will attempt to answer based on my understanding. Please do not mind; from the question, I can guess that you may be facing problems with the subjects, either in terms of understanding or from other aspects.

Your NIOS 2026 combination (Physics, Maths, English, Physical Education, and Biotechnology instead of Chemistry) complies with JoSAA Annexure 2(a)/(b) requirements, so you will be eligible for JoSAA counselling for BTech in IITs/NIT+ system, subject to passing all subjects and meeting the JEE Advanced and overall eligibility/percentile criteria. However, it is highly recommended to refer to the latest brochure published by NTA on the official website of JEE.

Good luck.
