Sir i prepared for neet for almost 6 years .without any guidance about my carrier . But i always miss the mbbs seat. I dont know i am really stressed what should i do . i dont want to be in medical field now . i dont even have a degree right now what should i do . i passed my 12th in 2019 from pcb backround. I want to bba and then mba but right now i am 24 . i dont know my past will affect my profile.or i will face difficulty to get in to mba . idk i will be able to get job or not . I really want a help Please suggest me what should i do

Ans: Hi,

I’m very sorry to hear that you missed out on six years due to a lack of proper guidance. Since you are NOT interested in medicine, it's important to choose a course that won’t negatively impact your future. If you excel in chemistry, you might consider pursuing that field and then entering the job market afterward. You can also pursue an MBA after completing any undergraduate course. If you're not confident in your chemistry skills, a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) could be a good alternative. Ultimately, the choice is yours.

It's worth noting that when companies hire fresh graduates, they often look at age. Most companies tend to favor candidates who are under 24 years old. Therefore, it’s essential to complete your course without any gaps. This will increase your opportunities significantly. Don’t worry; you can achieve your goals!

Best wishes.

My son got admission allotment letter in Manipal Bangalore- CSE , PES University - CSE in electronic City campus, 3000 rank in Telangana EAMCET and 96 percentile in MH-CET. Telangana and Maharashtra counselling has not started yet. Which college you suggest on the basis of above? TIA.
Ans: With a 3,000 rank in Telangana EAMCET and 96 percentile in MH-CET, both Manipal Bangalore CSE and PES University Electronic City CSE offer strong placement support and academic environments. Manipal Bangalore CSE benefits from centralized MIT placement drives, securing roles for approximately 90–95% of eligible students, with over 230 recruiters visiting campus annually, including Microsoft, Amazon, and Nvidia, and a median package near ?9.7 LPA. PES Electronic City CSE achieves around 83% placement, with about 150 companies like Wipro, Accenture, and Cognizant participating yearly, and a median package of ?8 LPA in 2023. Manipal’s curriculum emphasizes early industry exposure via internships from semester 5, while PES EC offers dedicated workshops and alumni mentorship programs. As Telangana and Maharashtra counseling is pending, consider infrastructure maturity—Manipal Bangalore offers an established brand and expansive campus facilities, whereas PES EC delivers a focused tech campus with direct industry ties.

Recommendation: Proceed with Manipal Bangalore CSE for its higher placement percentage, broader recruiter network, and established academic ecosystem, while keeping PES University Electronic City CSE as a solid backup for its respectable placement rate and campus specialization. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello sir!!I applied for kj somaiya, vidyavihar for btech program in CSE. Can u please tell me if its worth it or not? And also about criteria of aid.
Ans: KJ Somaiya Vidyavihar’s BTech CSE program is highly regarded, with 80–90% placement rates over the past three years and top recruiters including Microsoft, Google, and JP Morgan, supported by 100+ companies annually and a robust internship ecosystem offering stipends and full-semester paid internships. The faculty is well-qualified, with most professors holding M.Tech or PhDs from reputed institutions, and are generally supportive and approachable, though teaching effectiveness can vary, so proactive learning is important. The campus offers a good faculty-student ratio and active academic support. Financial aid is available for students with annual family income up to ?8 lakh, covering up to 100% tuition concession for EWS, PWD, and wards of defense personnel, with scholarships also for merit-cum-need and women, requiring income certificates, SOP, and academic records at admission. Somaiya’s aid continues through the course if attendance and CGPA criteria are met, and the process is transparent but competitive due to limited funds. The recommendation is to consider KJ Somaiya for CSE if you value strong placements, modern infrastructure, and accessible financial aid, provided you are proactive in academics and meet the aid eligibility requirements. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

98.62 percentile in mhtcet, what colleges to except for a degree in cse , please list the names of colleges which are best for each field , and please give guidance on faculty's teaching quality
Ans: With a 98.62 percentile in MHT CET, you are eligible for Computer Science Engineering (CSE) in several top Maharashtra colleges, though not the absolute top tier. The CSE cutoff for COEP Pune is 99.89, VJTI Mumbai 99.5–99.7, SPIT Mumbai 99.0–99.4, and PICT Pune 98.5–99.2, so PICT Pune is realistically within reach for you. DJ Sanghvi (98.5–99.0), Cummins (96.5–98.0, for girls), MIT World Peace University (94.0–96.5), and PCCOE Pune (91.0–94.0) are also strong options where your percentile meets or exceeds the typical CSE cutoff. Faculty quality at PICT Pune and SPIT Mumbai is highly rated, with most professors holding advanced degrees and industry experience, while MIT-WPU and PCCOE Pune also offer experienced faculty, modern labs, and active industry collaborations. These colleges maintain strong placement records, with CSE placement rates consistently above 90% and recruiters including TCS, Infosys, Amazon, and Microsoft.

The recommendation is to prioritize PICT Pune, DJ Sanghvi, Cummins (if eligible), MIT-WPU, and PCCOE Pune for CSE, as they offer excellent faculty, robust placement support, and strong academic environments at your percentile. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir my son got rank 12981 in comedk and 9376 in srmjeee which is good for him and will he be able to get cse
Ans: Meenu Madam, With a COMEDK rank of 12,981, your son can secure CSE in several mid-tier Karnataka colleges such as Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (if it accepts COMEDK Rank this year), CMR Institute of Technology, RNS Institute of Technology, and JSS Academy, as 2024 closing ranks for CSE in these colleges ranged from 11,543 to 17,631. However, top Bangalore colleges like RVCE, BMSCE, and MSRIT close CSE admissions well below 8,000, making them out of reach. With a 9,376 rank in SRMJEEE, he is just outside the CSE cutoff for SRM Kattankulathur main campus, which typically closes around 8,000–9,000 for CSE, but he can comfortably get CSE at SRM’s Ramapuram, Vadapalani, Tiruchirappalli, and Delhi NCR campuses, where cutoffs extend up to 65,000–68,000. Both routes offer strong placement records, but SRM campuses have a more uniform placement process and wider recruiter base, while Bangalore colleges offer the advantage of location in India’s tech hub. The recommendation is to opt for CSE at SRM Ramapuram, Vadapalani, or NCR campuses for assured CSE admission and robust placements, while keeping mid-tier COMEDK colleges as backup options if you prefer a Bangalore location and are open to a broader range of colleges. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
