Hi I have secured 424 gate score in ece. I want to join nit kkr communication system. Round 1 cut off was 444 and round 2 cut off is 436. Are there chances that I am going to get nit kkr.

Ans: Utpal, All three programmes deliver rigorous academics through NAAC/NBA?accredited curricula taught by predominantly PhD?qualified faculty, feature specialized labs (IIIT Hyderabad’s VLSI and communications; IIT KGP’s computational and statistical modeling; BITS Pilani’s data?science and scientific computing facilities), and ensure strong industry linkages with mandatory internships. IIIT Hyderabad ECE achieved a 98.8% BTech placement rate in 2024 with an average package of ?21.39 LPA and top?tier recruiters across telecom and embedded systems. IIT Kharagpur’s five-year Integrated BSc (Hons)+MSc in Mathematics & Computing sustains research-driven learning, placed ~70 students in its inaugural years with an average package of ?21.2 LPA and highest offers exceeding ?1.7 Cr, reflecting its finance-tech recruiter appeal. BITS Pilani’s four-year BE Mathematics & Computing (NIRF #20) offers curriculum flexibility, ~90% first-degree placement consistency, an overall average of ?20.09 LPA and median of ?18 LPA across 500+ recruiters.


For exceptional core?hardware roles and near?universal campus recruitment, the recommendation is IIIT Hyderabad ECE. For a research-intensive, finance-tech pathway with dual-degree depth, choose IIT Kharagpur Mathematics & Computing. Lastly, for broad computational foundations with flexible degree options and strong overall placements, opt for BITS Pilani Mathematics & Computing. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: HI
Kindly share sufficient information to answer your query.

Ans: Shifa, With a 98.87 percentile in MHT-CET under the OBC category, you qualify for assured All-India-Quota seats at COEP, VJTI, SPIT and PICT (for ENTC), all of which are NBA/NAAC-accredited with PhD-faculty, advanced labs, strong industry collaborations, mandatory internships and 75–95 percent placement consistency over the last three years. At COEP Pune, CSE closes around 97.68 percentile for GOBCS candidates, and IT and ENTC cutoffs are similarly within reach. VJTI Mumbai’s GOBCS cutoffs for CSE (94.9–96.82 percentile), IT (99.92 percentile for OPENS; roughly 96 percentile GOBCS), and ENTC (99.69 percentile OPENS; ~99 percentile GOBCS) ensure admission viability. SPIT Mumbai’s DEFOBCS cutoff for CSE is 97.85 percentile and GOBCS 98.87 percentile, with ENTC GOBCS at 96.75 percentile. PICT Pune admits GOBCS candidates in ENTC from 98.82 percentile, though CSE, IT and AI & DS require ≥99.5 percentile. Each institute offers robust placement cells engaging top recruiters and modern infrastructure to support both core and tech careers.

For the strongest software-driven outcomes, the recommendation is SPIT Mumbai CSE. Next, prioritize VJTI Mumbai CSE, COEP Pune CSE, SPIT ENTC, VJTI ENTC, and PICT Pune ENTC based on your percentile and placement consistency. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Bit difficult.

Ans: HI Varsha,
Possibilities are there with less competitive branches or institutions.
best wishes.

Ans: Kumari, MIT WPU Pune’s B.Tech programmes in Electronics & Communication Engineering and Chemical/Materials Science Engineering both hold NBA alignment and AICTE approval, delivered by PhD-qualified faculty in specialized labs—EDA and VLSI labs for ECE, and unit-operations, reaction-engineering and materials-characterization labs for Chemical/Materials Engineering. ECE graduates have achieved 70–80% placement consistency over the past three years, engaging recruiters across telecom, IoT and embedded systems domains, and benefit from mandatory industry internships and a dedicated career-development cell. Chemical/Materials Engineering records around 75–85% branch-wise placements with core-process, biotech and advanced-materials firms, supported by live projects in green chemistry and process simulation, and internships with companies like Reliance and Honeywell. Both branches leverage MIT WPU’s 1,600+ industry connections, experiential “Practice School” model and 80% overall placement median, ensuring strong employability outcomes.

recommendation
Electronics & Communication Engineering is recommended for a technology-driven future that offers broader software-electronics roles and higher median recruiter engagement. If you prefer core-process expertise, materials innovation, and stronger scholarships, choose Chemical/Materials Science Engineering. MY SUGGESTION: Prefer ECE over Chemical/Material. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: HI Vansh,
NO.

Ans: IIPE’s B.Tech in Mathematics & Computing is offered by an Institute of National Importance with an interdisciplinary curriculum blending deep mathematical theory and modern computing applications, PhD-qualified faculty drawn from IITs and industry, specialized AI/ML/Data Science labs, mandatory practical projects and a 93.75% placement rate across B.Tech programs. Pros include focused analytics training, small peer cohort, cutting-edge research exposure, strong industry tie-ups in energy-data domains and close mentorship. Cons involve a nascent alumni base, limited program track record, fewer generalist recruiters, lesser brand visibility compared to older IITs, and geographic distance from major tech hubs.
JNTU Hyderabad’s CSE, with NAAC A+ accreditation, offers a comprehensive core-to-emerging-tech syllabus, robust infrastructure (networking, cybersecurity and software-engineering labs), large alumni network, extensive corporate partnerships and an 87.62% UG placement rate with leading recruiters through its dedicated Training & Placement Cell. Pros include proven placement consistency, vast peer and research community, diverse elective options, strong academic reputation and central Hyderabad location. Cons include large batch sizes, bureaucratic processes, less personalized mentorship, curriculum slower to adapt to niche trends and potential campus overcrowding.

For specialized analytics and close mentorship within an Institute of National Importance framework, recommendation is IIPE Mathematics & Computing. If you seek broader recruiter access, a large peer network and established CSE reputation, choose JNTU Hyderabad CSE. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
