i am pursuing my degree from non-regular college and its non technical , i want to enter IT sector which skills should i learn to enter that sector and is there any growth after it

Ans: Hi, To transition into the IT sector, focus on learning programming languages such as Python or Java, web development basics, database management, and networking concepts. With AI gradually taking over, it is important that you are familiar with AI principles. There are skilling/Edtech companies that offer AI-centric courses and can enhance your skill set, making you more competitive in the evolving IT landscape. Stay updated on industry trends as it will help you understand the industry better and guide you in making better decisions. Many IT professionals successfully enter the field without a technical degree by obtaining relevant Certifications - which is quite easy now a days and practical skills.

Good evening sir. I'm completing by Bsc chemistry this year. Now I want to change my stream to IT. I'm planning to take a certificate course in minor in computer science at IIT mandi, then certificate course at IIT in cloud computing... With this certificate course is it possible to enter into IT sector and get the good job. Or, is there any other way to enter into IT sector from non IT background student?

Ans: Your plan to start with minor and cloud computing certificates is good but supplement it with practical experience.
Use LinkedIn for networking and follow job postings to understand market requirements.
Explore short-term coding bootcamps if you prefer structured learning with placement support.
Look into PG-level IT programs if you want a degree-based transition.

Good evening sir. My son is completing bsc chemistry this year. Now he wants to change his stream from bsc chemistry to IT. He has plan to pursue certificate course in minor in computer science at IIT mandi and then certificate course in cloud computing at IIT... Is it possible to get the good job in IT sector with above certificate course. Or is there any other way to enter into IT sector from non IT background student?

Ans: Yes. It is possible. But this era is for AI & Machine Learning. Please see that the syllabus covers both AI & ML. Secondly since he doesn't have a background of IT let him practise all the required things which will be prerequisite for the course from YOU TUBE VIDEOS and online free materials from net. Before joining the course he must practise them for three months at least six hours per day. It will help him to complete the course very successfully. Best of luck to your son. Just follow me. MAY GOD BLESS HIM. Professor.......................:)

Question by Rudra - Apr 22, 2026Hindi

Career

Sir I got 58686 rank in jee mains. I am from west bengal. I am a general male candidate. Please suggest me some colleges.

Ans: With CRL 58,686, General male, and West Bengal home state, your realistic JoSAA options are mainly lower/mid branches, not CSE/ECE in top NITs. For NIT Durgapur (HS), 2025 closing ranks reported were about 50,787 for Biotechnology, 41,185 for Civil, and 40,862 for Metallurgy, so these look difficult in JoSAA main rounds. For IIEST Shibpur (HS), Mining closed around 53,638 and Civil around 49,180, so they are also slightly above your rank. IIIT Kalyani ECE may be possible in special rounds, while GFTIs/BIT Mesra lower branches are more realistic. My recommendation: fill JoSAA fully, then target CSAB seriously apart from WBJEE and some more Private Engineering Colleges in and around West Bengal. You should also thoroughly review JoSAA’s Opening and Closing Ranks from the last 1-2 years to identify realistic options for your rank and fill the maximum number of preferred choices accordingly.ALL the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Sir, I have got 97.5311 %ile in JM'26 and a CRL rank of 39131 and EWS rank 5645.. I am getting Mesra CSE in the 1st round of JoSAA as per 2025 cutoff... So should I just go for MESRA CSE or during counseling, if I am allotted that, then I should for upgradation.. because I don't think I will get CSE in a good top NIT and Mesra is near to my hometown (6 hours distance).. so should I be choosing MESRA CSE or you would suggest me for some NIT (Though I don't think I will get CSE in any Tier 1.5 NIT like my HS NIT JSR too.. or NIT DGP etc...) Please suggest me the best choice.. Thank you!!

Ans: With a CRL of 39,131 and EWS rank of 5,645, BIT Mesra CSE is a strong option. Its 2025 EWS closing rank was 16,476, so your rank is comfortably better. Keep upgradation on, list better NIT/IIIT options above, but confidently accept BIT Mesra CSE if allotted due to location and placements. You should thoroughly review JoSAA’s Opening and Closing Ranks from the last 1-2 years to identify realistic options for your rank and fill the maximum number of preferred choices accordingly. ALL the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Question by siva - Apr 22, 2026Hindi

Career

Hello sir my student got 99+ percentile in both B arch as well as B.Plan but mains score 91 percentile belongs to OBC NCL tamilnadu. Is it possible for any NITs or IIITs for this 91 percentile or child go with b arch/b.plan

Ans: Hi Siva Sir,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!
CONGRATS TO YOUR STUDENT.
For those in the 99th percentile and above, there are strong prospects of admission to reputable architecture schools, including high chances for a Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch) at prominent National Institutes of Technology (NITs), such as NIT Trichy through the home state quota, as well as other major NITs.

For those in the 91st percentile, there are good chances of securing admission to lower-tier or newer NITs, as well as IIITs and Government Funded Technical Institutes (GFTIs) for Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech). Utilizing the home state quota can significantly increase the likelihood of admission.

Best wishes!

Sir, my son scored 97.61 percentile and 37864 general cat rank and Delhi home state. Is nit delhi worth studying in view of placement

Ans: HI SIR,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!
Generally, institutions provide a brand, and candidates must perform well in interviews. If a candidate is not qualified, there's no way the industry will accept them. The main advantage of campus recruitment is that the competition is among classmates rather than strangers. This means candidates are already aware of each other's strengths and weaknesses, which can facilitate achieving their goals more easily. Being a national institute, especially one located in Delhi, is definitely an advantage. So go ahead.

BEST WISHES.

Sir I got AIR RANK 279230, percentile is 82.190,Gen Ews category rank 42670,will I get any low NITS

Ans: HI,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!
Securing a seat in lower-ranking NITs (new NITs) is possible based on your rank, especially during the CSAB special rounds or the later JoSAA rounds, particularly for less competitive branches. I recommend considering a degree in Mechanical Engineering. The healthcare system relies on medical devices developed in the engineering field, and you could also pursue a career as a medical device inspector (iT IS NEW JOB OPPORTUNITY FOR THE ENGINEERING GRADUATES).

hello sir my result just came and i got 83 percentile, i belong to st category and i also have delhi quota, my category rank was 4000 so can i get into nit delhi electrical engineering branch in the later rounds of csab counselling

Ans: HI STANZIN,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!
Based on the information you provided, it may be challenging to secure admission in Electrical Engineering at NIT Delhi. However, there may be more possibilities for other core branches, such as Mechanical and Civil Engineering. You might have a chance in the later rounds of the counseling process (CSAB). Therefore, I encourage you to actively participate in the counseling process until you achieve your goal.
BEST WISHES.
