Is it possible to go to universities like STANFORD, HARVARD, etc or MIT after doing btech from NIT/IIT? Considering the fact that till now, I have no such extracirculars required..if yes, please let me know the complete procedure. [a JEE dropper]

Ans: Hello Why. Thank you for connecting with us. It is good to know that you are considering the USA for your further studies. However, let me tell you that people from non-tier 1 undergraduate colleges regularly get admitted to these colleges for graduate school. Going further, the reason why you see more IIT graduates being admitted to MIT or Stanford is not because they get preference, but because they’re on average much stronger academically than people from lesser institutions, both in terms of their innate capability as well as the effort they put in over the course. The factors that matter for admission are your GPA, GRE score, recommendations, research, and Statement of Purpose (SOP). GPA and GRE are basically used as cutoffs, while the other criteria are used to decide who gets admitted after the cutoff. As long as you have the same scores and quality of work as an “IIT student," you need not worry. Note that since your college curriculum and fellow students are likely to be much weaker than those at IITs, you will need to work on your own to do much more than your college academics. Upon doing so, you will be able to get summer internships with IIT professors, which will put you in the same standing as IIT students in terms of your application.
In fact, only a small portion of IIT students get admitted to MIT or Stanford since, obviously, there aren’t enough seats for all of them. So even if you’re strong in all the criteria, there is an element of luck, so you can expect to get admitted to some of the top 10 colleges and not to others. However, you will get admitted to some for sure if you’re good enough.

Sir, I am a partial dropper I have secured (97.56%ile) 38293 rank in mains this year. I am already pursuing btech in ECE fron jiit, Noida. From what I can see, I might be getting tier-2 NITs but lower branches and getting a college in JAC also seems impossible as I do not have delhi quota. What should be the way forward for me. Are there any colleges that might be a better option for me than jiit.

Ans: Read your question thoroughly and noted the contents.

Congrats to you for Scoring 97.56 Percentile in your JEE (Main).

My suggestions:

As you are already pursuing ECE from JIIT (one of the good Private Universities), it is advisable to continue with it.

However, here are some practical Tips / Steps / Strategies you should follow to be COMPETENT in the Job Market and land a good job once you finish your Graduation:

While Pursuing your BTech (ECE):

1) Make sure that he continues to maintain a decent Score / CGPA / Percentage till you complete his BTech.
2) Join 2-3 Co-curricular Activities Club (related to his Domain) & also be involved in extra-curricular activities.
3) Create your Professional LinkedIn Profile, if you do not have one.
4) Get connected to professionals of the same domain, but NOT ask for jobs (after you complete your BTech). If your profile matches their requirements, they will be in touch with you.
5) Every 3-months, keep updating his LinkedIn Profile to add your recent achievements/certifications etc.
6) Start researching about the companies that visited the College during the last 3-years & know their nature business/manpower requirements in the ‘Career’ Section through their websites.
7) Most important: Start doing Certification Courses either online / offline, related to his domain (from 1st year itself), to be competent in job market.
8) NPTEL & Internshala are some reputed Certification platforms you can join. And/or you can join any other Certifications, recommended by your Faculties in your College.
9) Put Job-Alert Notifications in LinkedIn, related to your domain, from 1st year itself, to know about the current job market scenarios/employers’ expectations.
10) Keep upskilling your knowledge & skills till he completes his BTech (ECE).
Just Before / After Completing your BTech (ECE):
1) Just before completing your BTech, he should prepare well for the Campus Recruitment Written Test / Interview / Group Discussion, whichever will be applicable.
2) Start applying for jobs also through LinkedIn Job Alerts, if the Job Description posted by the employers/recruiters / companies, matches your profile.
3) Keep your ‘RESUME’ professionally prepared. His ‘Resume’ should be simple & brief with keywords, related to your domain, with your LinkedIn Account’s clickable link.
4) And, keep upgrading your skills, to be competitive in the job market, even after you land the jobs.

Hope I have cleared your doubts with value additions.

If you need any other clarifications for you or have questions for anyone, post your questions (in detail) to me and/or follow me here in RediffGURU to know more on ‘Careers / Education / Jobs’.

What are scope of btech biotech in india and abroad if someone want to do Masters abroad like Australia canada u.k or u.s what with be the expenses and procedure, is it a good fiekd to choose over Mbbs

Ans: After B.Tech Biotechnology never go for MBBS. It will be a huge wastage of time and only with MBBS without specialization truly you can't earn much in present day. For doing Masters from Foreign country I would suggest only USA. The procedure is very simple. You need to have four things i) An excellent GRE Score ii) A good TOEFL Score 111) Three good recommendations from your professors iv) A good SOP (Statement of Purpose). But the cash support required will be 80 lakhs to 1 crore. Because now a days in MS fundings are generally not available. Best of luck. MAY GOD BLESS YOU. Professor.....................:)

Confused about future what to do after msc biotechnology so I can earn decant amount?

Ans: You can go for teaching, but for teaching if you go for Ph.D it will be better. If the financial condition permits you can go for Ph.D from USA. You need to have four things i) An excellent GRE Score ii) A good TOEFL Score 111) Three good recommendations from your professors iv) A good SOP (Statement of Purpose). Ph.D comes with full funding, still you need to have 30-40 lakhs rupees cash ready for the initial expenses and first two semesters, if you don't get funding from day one. But generally Ph.D students get funding from starting. But if you go for MS then points number 1 to 4 will be same, but the cash support required will be 80 lakhs to 1 crore. Because in MS now a days financial supports are generally not received. If you can't afford study from USA then in India you can do MBA from a good B- School and join some corporate. But if you don't want to change the core sector then go for Ph.D in India, but Ph.D is a journey of 4 to 6 years. Once Ph.D is done college teaching will be a good opportunity for you. Be in touch with me and follow me. All the best. MAY GOD BLESS YOU. Professor............:)

Question by Donna - Jun 25, 2024Hindi

Health

Dr. Shyam, I had my teeth cleaned 6 months ago and after that was done I saw discoloration on certain teeth that wasn't there before. Years ago I had my teeth cleaned and one particular tooth after the cleaning was sensitive to touch. I had a crown put in from two different dental offices. The first one did the crown right, but was trying to charge me $3,500 more than the agreement they made with Medicare. Medicare corrected that. I other dentist did a crown and it didn't go all the way up to my gums and is sensitive to especially cold things. I'm not having very good experiences with dentist by and large. Can't find an honest one or one that can actually do the job right. I feel being on Medicare your a target to bring in money. Not sure what to do next. Supposed to go back and have them redo the crown that didn't go to my gums, but it also was ttd place to didn't clean my teeth right and discolored some of them. Any suggestions on how to trust there is actually an capable and honest dentist out there who can perform properly?

Ans: Identifying a capable and honest dentist is crucial for your oral health and well-being. Here are some tips to help you find one:

1. Ask for referrals: Ask friends, family, or coworkers for recommendations. They can provide valuable insights into a dentist's work quality and bedside manner.

2. Check credentials: Ensure the dentist has the necessary qualifications, certifications, and licenses. You can verify this information with your state's dental board or professional organizations like the American Dental Association (ADA).

3. Check online reviews: Look up the dentist on review platforms. Pay attention to the overall rating and read the comments to understand the strengths and weaknesses. At the same time, do not rely on reviews alone as these can be manipulated, fake reviews can be easily generated.

4. Evaluate their communication style: A good dentist should listen to your concerns, explain procedures clearly, and answer questions patiently. Ensure you feel comfortable asking questions and discussing your treatment.

5. Assess their facility and equipment: A well-organized and modern dental office with up-to-date equipment is a good sign.

6. Check their approach to preventive care: A capable dentist emphasizes preventive care, including regular cleanings, exams, and education on oral hygiene.

7. Be wary of over-treatment: A honest dentist will not recommend unnecessary procedures. Be cautious if you feel pressured into extensive treatments.

8. Trust your instincts: If something feels off or you don't click with the dentist, it's okay to explore other options.

10. Schedule a consultation: Many dentists offer initial consultations or meet-and-greets. Use this opportunity to assess their approach, ask questions, and gauge your comfort level.

By following these steps, you can increase your chances of finding a capable and honest dentist who prioritizes your oral health and well-being.

I have gum inflammation from teenage years now am in 30s it bleeds rarely but swelling doesn't reduce though from many years am waiting for it to come to normal...

Ans: Hello
You have not mentioned whether you have consulted a dentist for your gum inflammation and were treated in the past for the same.
The most common cause for gum inflammation is poor oral hygiene. Inadequate or improper brushing can lead to accumulation of tartar or calculus which in turn leads to gum inflammation. This tartar or calculus has to be cleaned (the process is called scaling) periodically by a qualified dentist in order to maintain gum health. The recommended frequency can be determined by your dentist after periodic check ups.
If you have gum inflammation despite regular check ups and cleaning, other factors could be responsible.
Certain medicines which need to be taken on a regular basis are known to cause swelling of the gums. Hormonal imbalances can also affect the gums. To rule out these extra-oral factors, your medical history and medication will have to evaluated and adjusted by a General Physician.

I've completed my BSc in Chemistry and Biotechnology and am now contemplating my master's degree options. I'm torn between MCA (Master of Computer Applications) and MSc Bioinformatics. Considering my life science background, I'm unsure if pursuing MCA would limit my job prospects and i don't know much about Msc bioinformatics So what to do now?

Ans: Go for MCA or Msc bioinformatics. Take prper decision. Ask yourself whether you want to be in the core line or you want to shift to IT side. If IT side then even MCA will not be enough. It's an age of AI. So you need to go for a good certificate course which is having collaboration with some reputed IIT. So please decide with a calm and cool mind then proceed. In your country before going for a three years course we don't even think for three hours. DECISION DECIDES DESTINY. So take proper decision. I am always there for you. Best of luck.

I am 45 year's old high school physics teacher with M.Sc in Physics and having M.Tech degree in safety, also having 18yrs teaching and four year of industry experience, now if I complete online B.Sc in AI and DS from IIT Guwahati, and try to do research in AI or quantum computing ,can I switch over in this age or I can get research opportunities

Ans: Frankly speaking research work means pursuing Ph.D or joining some company of AI, ML and DS in their R&D division. Along with job Ph.D you can't do, but certainly after the certificate course of IIT Guwahati you will have access to the R&D of the companies who deal with DS, AI and ML. Only your huge teaching experience is a negative factor. Still I would suggest you to go for the certificate course and try for R&D job. Best of Luck. MAY GOD BLESS YOU.

Relationship

Hi, I am 30 years old not married & now my parents are forcing me to get married. I think i am good looking guy. It's not like i have never been with girls. I have had brief flings with multiple girls. And there was one girl whom i was in a platonic relationship with with lot of emotional sharing & have spent a lot of time with her. The same goes with another girl. Both of them have told me that i have been pretty cool & girls would like me to be their bf or husband. But i am not able to accept anyone because of the guilt that of my past that i never had a relationship. Never been able to tell anyone that i had a gf. I know this is wrong to compare my life but i can't stop thinking that way. Can you tell me what to do? Like a contsant regret of not having a very steamy cool fancy relationship from outside. I know relationships have it's own ups & downs. But this guilt is killing me that i missed out lot of things in life & if get married in an arranged marriage i would feel myself to be a looser who couldn't even find a girl on his own. Though i know all of these comparisons are wrong & i should be rational. I am not able to help it. Please help me out

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
Whatever you are feeling, it is very normal. More people than you could imagine go through this same phase. But as you mentioned, these are just thoughts; there is no truth to them. Not having a relationship does not make you uncool. It merely means that you did not meet your perfect match yet. I understand that you feel like you have missed out on something and that feeling is valid. It might not be reasonable, but it's very natural to think this way. I can suggest one thing- why don't you try a dating or matchmaking app to find your own partner? That way, you will be keeping your parents' wishes and won't let yourself down either. It will also give you more control over choosing your life partner.

Hope this helps.
