My son got 60206 in jee mains, GEN category from kolkata. BITS score 193. Msc maths or physics dual degree will be helpful or which course/ college is advisible from jee mains score?

Ans: Maneesh Sir, With a JEE Main rank of 60 206 (General) from Kolkata, admission into top-tier NITs and IIITs for core branches is unlikely, but numerous government and private engineering colleges remain fully accessible. Government institutes where closing ranks for various B.Tech programmes exceed 60 206 include NIT Agartala (Civil), NIT Meghalaya (EEE), NIT Mizoram (Mechanical), NIT Manipur (Civil), NIT Sikkim (Mechanical), NIT Puducherry (Civil), NIT Arunachal Pradesh (Biotechnology), IIIT Kalyani (CSE), IIIT Kottayam (ECE), IIIT Ranchi (CSE), IIIT Nagpur (ECE), NIT Uttarakhand (Civil), NIT Goa (EEE), NIT Manipur (ECE), NIT Sikkim (ECE), GFTI BIT Deoghar off-campus (CSE), IIIT Bhagalpur (CSE), IIIT Dharwad (CSE), IIIT Manipur (CSE), and IIIT Raichur (Mathematics & Computing). Leading private universities with open JEE Main cutoffs below 60 206 encompass VIT Vellore, SRM Chennai, Manipal Institute of Technology, Thapar University Patiala, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham Coimbatore, KIIT Bhubaneswar, SASTRA Thanjavur, Lovely Professional University, Amity Noida, and Chandigarh University accepting JEE Main scores.

Recommendation: Focus on securing seats at government institutes like NIT Agartala or IIIT Kalyani for affordable, accredited education and stable funding; alternatively, choose VIT Vellore or SRM Chennai for world-class infrastructure, industry-aligned curricula, and strong placement cells, aligning with long-term career aspirations.

Sir, my daughter has got 11790 rank in kcet. Through counseling she can get EEE in BMSCE basavanagudi college and electonics, cybersecurity and information science in Bangalore institute of technology .....can you help by guiding which one to choose ?

Ans: BMS College of Engineering’s Electrical & Electronics programme (NAAC A++ and NBA-accredited) features specialized power-electronics, control-systems and renewable-energy labs, a dedicated Research & Development centre, and 80–90% branch-wise placement consistency over the past three years. However, its KCET closing rank for EEE under the General quota was 5 466 in the final round, making admission unlikely with a rank of 11 790. Bangalore Institute of Technology’s NAAC A+–accredited Electronics & Communication Engineering offers VLSI and embedded-systems labs, Practice School internships and 85% placement consistency, with a KCET cutoff of 9 785 in Round 4. BIT’s IoT & Cybersecurity programme combines sensor-network and blockchain labs, active industry partnerships and 80% placements, closing at 8 628 in Round 4. The Information Science & Engineering stream provides advanced networking and AI labs, 88% placement consistency, and a Round 4 cutoff of 7 092.

Recommendation: Given the rank constraints, recommendation is to choose BIT’s IoT & Cybersecurity specialisation for its cutting-edge infrastructure and strong placement consistency; alternatively, opt for BIT Electronics & Communication if higher intake flexibility is available in early counselling rounds. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Career

Sir I want to ask that for Btech CSE program in Jaipur which one is the better option JK Laxmipath University or BIT Mesra Jaipur off campus

Ans: Bhavya, JK Lakshmipat University Jaipur’s BTech CSE program, a UGC-recognised private institution established in 2011, holds NAAC ‘A’ accreditation and DSIR-SIRO status, offers interdisciplinary macro-credit courses, state-of-the-art AI/ML and networking labs, and a student mobility scheme with top IITs. Its dedicated placement cell achieved 100% placement assistance in 2024 with an average package of ?7.4 LPA and highest of ?22.5 LPA over three years (75–100% branch-wise consistency). BIT Mesra Jaipur off-campus CSE, under BIT Mesra Ranchi’s academic umbrella, follows AICTE norms, features IIT-level computing and research labs, experienced PhD faculty, and records ~70% CSE placement consistency with average packages of ?8–10 LPA and peaks up to ?30 LPA.

Recommendation: Given its stronger placement consistency, higher branch-wise placement rates, robust accreditation, and interdisciplinary curriculum with global student mobility, the recommendation is to choose JK Lakshmipat University Jaipur CSE; BIT Mesra Jaipur CSE is a credible alternative for those valuing main-campus brand alignment and slightly higher average packages. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir , I wanted to know which will be a better choice ece at thapar or ece at msrit ramaiah

Ans: Awiraj, Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology’s B.E. in Electronics & Communication Engineering, is NBA- and ABET-accredited, carries an NAAC A grade, and boasts advanced VLSI, signal-processing, 5G/6G, and IoT labs; a practice-school model with industry mentors; and sustained branch-wise placement consistency of around 90–100% over the past three years.

Both institutions feature experienced PhD faculty, robust industry partnerships, and strong campus infrastructure.

Recommendation: If you want a wider range of job opportunities and advanced labs, choose MSRIT’s ECE because it has better average salary growth and more global research connections; choose Thapar’s ECE if you prefer a smaller group of students, ABET accreditation, more personal guidance from teachers, and hands-on learning experiences.
