My second son is doing his B.com BFSI Final year from Sastra Thanjavur. He has a CGPA above 8 till his 4th semester. What he should pursue after his B.com. he has interest in Business Analytics and ACCA. Also whether he can look out for some jobs in Banks/Insurance. For Business Analytics what he should study. He is also keen in pursuing his studies in abroad. Please advise the course he can opt in foreign universities From V NARASIMHAN

Ans: It is natural for parents to be worried about the future of their children. Sastra is a good institute and he can connect with the placement office and get all the details of the post grad courses and job opportunities after BCom. For now my advice would be for him to work hard to improve his grades in the 3rd year to 10. And once he has inputs from his placement team he can write to me again for study abroad by identifying programs, and checking out the eligibility criterion.

Hlo sir my brother got 26314 rank in jee main our cast is obc till not seat is not alloted 4 rounds was completed will he get seat or not

Ans: Sindhu, A 26,314 OBC-NCL rank in JEE Main typically falls short for core CSE and ECE at top NITs, where closing ranks range from 1,500–12,000. However, it aligns with civil engineering cutoffs at newer NITs (Uttarakhand OBC closing ~53,260; Puducherry ~51,743; Agartala ~73,830) and many GFTIs where OBC-NCL closing ranks span 32,384–40,766. Essential institutional factors include NAAC/NBA accreditation, NIRF ranking, modern laboratories and research centres, robust industry partnerships for internships, and historical placement consistency. Considering these, your brother can secure a seat in civil or less-sought NIT branches, or in GFTIs, ensuring quality infrastructure and acceptable placement prospects (if your brother has filled in these choices too in JoSAA).

Final recommendation: Given strong accreditation, infrastructure, and placement records, the recommendation is to target Civil Engineering at NIT Uttarakhand or NIT Puducherry or appropriate GFTIs; parallelly explore state-level counselling for specialized or regional institutes with similar OBC cutoffs. (Advise your brother to participate in the CSAB Round also with realistic expectations based on his Rank). All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
