My scores in VARC have been dipping a lot lately. It used to average 40 earlier, but recently I've been scoring way low, like 12 to 14 marks, not beyond. I'm really stressed, and panicking here. What to do?

Ans: As an OMS candidate, getting top government colleges like COEP, VJTI, or ICT in CSE/AI is unlikely. However, K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering is a realistic and strong possibility if the cutoff remains similar. Do not withdraw your MUJ admission until you have actually received and confirmed your admission through Maharashtra CAP. Treat MUJ as your secure backup while participating in counselling.

Good luck.

Ans: Hope the score mentioned is from JEE (Main), as it is the only one considered for CAP admissions, not your MHT-CET score. OMS candidates compete for All India seats based on JEE Main scores. You can target government colleges for Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, and other lower-demand branches. For CSE/IT/ECE, good private colleges are an option. It is not possible for us to provide a probable college list at this moment. But you can surely get admission to a decent private college. Just decide the city and choose the preferred colleges with preferred branches.

Good luck.

Ans: Prefer ECE @ MUJ if possible. Else CE @ NMIMS > CSE @ IPS Academy

Ans: If cost is not the deciding factor and you have both options, ECE @ USICT is the stronger overall choice due to its overall reputation. Choose this option if your daughter is keenly interested in electronics.

Good luck.

Ans: No, there is generally no problem in JoSAA counselling if you register with NIOS after passing CBSE, provided you meet the eligibility rules. If you want to use your NIOS marks instead, they must be valid, declared in time, and accepted as your qualifying examination. Your documents must also be consistent.

Good luck.

Ans: What about his placement for his Btech-CSE and wherefrom he completed it?

Ans: Sudip Sir, both are good choices. However, your daughter can prefer JU-IT due to its massive Kolkata alumni network and premier location, which offer superior long-term tech industry exposure and better internship opportunities. All The Best for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!

Ans: 1. What is the specific reason for taking in one bank account instead of respective person
2. What is the nature of income
3. If the payer is deducting TDS of respective person, then payment should also be made to respective account

Ans: Report to VIT Chennai and secure your CSE seat. With a 99.8 percentile in MHT-CET (Open, Maharashtra), you have an excellent chance of getting top state colleges like COEP, VJTI, SPIT, and PICT through CAP, but counseling is delayed. Retaining VIT minimizes risk. If you later receive a preferred CAP allotment, withdraw from VIT within the refund timeline to maximize fee recovery. All The Best for Your Prosperous Future!
