Ans: Hello dear.
If you get a better option than VIT Bhopal, then choose that option. Otherwise, VIT Bhopal is also a good option. The final decision will be yours.
Good luck!

Ans: Nitin Sir, The following are the OBC-NCL category closing All-India Ranks from Round 6 (final round) of the IISER Aptitude Test 2024 seat allotment:

Berhampur – BS-MS Dual Degree – 2379.
Tirupati – BS-MS Dual Degree – 2318.

All other IISER campuses did not allocate seats under the OBC-NCL category in the final round of IAT 2024. Chances are there that your son will get admission into any one of the above 2 campuses. However, have back-up options instead of relying only on this. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Ankur, With an All-India rank of 3611 in the IISER Aptitude Test, you fall between recent closing ranks: IISER Bhopal’s Round 3 general cutoff was 3540 and Round 4 was 3911, and IISER Tirupati’s last-round cutoff reached 4003, while IISER Thiruvananthapuram and Kolkata closed below 3447 and 1689, respectively. IISER Pune and Mohali also closed well under 3000. These trends indicate strong likelihood of securing a seat at IISER Bhopal or Tirupati, whereas chances at TVM, Kolkata, Pune and Mohali are slim. Please note, if you are mentally prepared to join Bhopal / Tirupati campuses, you can go for it. If you prefer only Tier-1 campuses like Kolkata & Pune, Better to accept NIT-Agartala.

Confidently pursue IISER counseling in Bhopal or Tirupati to secure your research-focused BS-MS seat rather than relinquishing NIT Agartala admission. Ensure timely decision-making to align with JoSAA and IISER schedules. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Aashna, Both Manipal University Jaipur and MIT World Peace University Pune are private, NBA-aligned institutions with NAAC accreditation and robust infrastructure. Manipal Jaipur’s A+ NAAC-accredited CSE program (NIRF #64) is taught by over 120 PhD-qualified faculty in specialized AI/ML, cybersecurity and software labs, and achieved an 88% CSE placement rate with a ?9.5 LPA average package in 2024, supported by recruiters like Amazon, Google and Deloitte.

Both offer mandatory internships, career development cells and active industry tie-ups, but Manipal Jaipur’s higher placement consistency, stronger brand ranking and expansive coding culture provide greater assurance for CSE aspirants.


For superior placement consistency, higher NIRF ranking and an expansive AI/ML-focused curriculum, the recommendation is Manipal University Jaipur CSE. If you prioritize a work-integrated pedagogy with strong corporate projects and a Pune location, consider MIT WPU Pune CSE as a secondary option. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Aditya, As an outside-Maharashtra candidate with a 94.51 MHT-CET percentile, you are assured that All-India-Quota admission to Aeronautical Engineering at COEP and VJTI is beyond reach; therefore, you should focus on Mechanical Engineering at reputable government and private institutes with GOPENS cutoffs of 94.51% or lower. Ten strong options offering NBA/NAAC-accredited Mechanical (or allied manufacturing) programs, PhD-qualified faculty, modern labs, industry linkages, mandatory internships and 75–90% placement consistency are Priyadarshini COE Nagpur (Mech), Government College of Engineering, Nagpur (Mech), Sinhgad Academy of Engineering Kondhwa (Mech), Sinhgad College of Engineering Vadgaon (Mech), Pimpri Chinchwad COE Ravet (Mech), PCCOE Nigdi (Mech), G. H. Raisoni COE Pune (Mech), GHRCEM Pune (Mech), D.J. Sanghvi COE Mumbai (Mech), and SIES GST Navi Mumbai (Mech).

Prioritise Priyadarshini COE Nagpur Mechanical for its government-college credibility and consistent 85–90% placements.

Ans: SRM University-AP’s work-integrated B.Tech programmes (Software Product Engineering and AI & Future Technologies) replace traditional lectures with industry-embedded projects, coding bootcamps and semester-long internships across partner companies, fostering real-world skills through active-learning labs and the “Practice School” model. Faculty are predominantly PhD-qualified and industry-experienced, and the Career Development Centre engages 120+ recruiters annually, supporting a placement consistency of 70–90% over the last three years through mock interviews, hackathons and competency training. The flexible IDEAL curriculum allows interdisciplinary electives but excludes scholarship support for these tracks, potentially increasing financial burden; students can overcome this by applying for external fellowships and part-time teaching or research assistantships. Furthermore, reduced traditional classroom contact may challenge theory depth, which can be mitigated through self-study sessions, peer-led tutorials and leveraging online resources. While global exchange opportunities and UROP projects enhance academic exposure, students should proactively seek additional certification in core subjects to balance applied learning with foundational theory.

Weighing immersive industry exposure, robust placement support,the and interdisciplinary flexibility against higher fees and reduced lecture hours, the recommendation is to join the work-integrated program if your son thrives in self-driven environments and secures external scholarships; otherwise consider the regular B.Tech track for stronger theoretical grounding and financial aid access. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
