Not sure about which college to choose for B.tech There are 3 options for me right now 1. NMIMS mumbai (CSE with spec in cyber security) 2. Manipal (bangalore campus) - electronics and computer engineering 3.KIIT - CSE with AIML My parents are leaning towards Nmims but i am not sure if its good for engineering Should i look for other colleges through MHTCET? But i have only gotten a percentile of 82.18

Ans: Any specific reason for your parents' preference for NMIMS? Location? My suggested order of preference (it is up to you & your parents' to finalize) (1) KIIT-CSE -AIML (2) NMIMS-CSE-CS (3) Manipal. All the BEST for Your Bright Future.

My son got admission allotment letter in Manipal Bangalore- CSE , PES University - CSE in electronic City campus, 3000 rank in Telangana EAMCET and 96 percentile in MH-CET. Telangana and Maharashtra counselling has not started yet. Which college you suggest on the basis of above? TIA.

Ans: With a 3,000 rank in Telangana EAMCET and 96 percentile in MH-CET, both Manipal Bangalore CSE and PES University Electronic City CSE offer strong placement support and academic environments. Manipal Bangalore CSE benefits from centralized MIT placement drives, securing roles for approximately 90–95% of eligible students, with over 230 recruiters visiting campus annually, including Microsoft, Amazon, and Nvidia, and a median package near ?9.7 LPA. PES Electronic City CSE achieves around 83% placement, with about 150 companies like Wipro, Accenture, and Cognizant participating yearly, and a median package of ?8 LPA in 2023. Manipal’s curriculum emphasizes early industry exposure via internships from semester 5, while PES EC offers dedicated workshops and alumni mentorship programs. As Telangana and Maharashtra counseling is pending, consider infrastructure maturity—Manipal Bangalore offers an established brand and expansive campus facilities, whereas PES EC delivers a focused tech campus with direct industry ties.

Recommendation: Proceed with Manipal Bangalore CSE for its higher placement percentage, broader recruiter network, and established academic ecosystem, while keeping PES University Electronic City CSE as a solid backup for its respectable placement rate and campus specialization. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello sir!!I applied for kj somaiya, vidyavihar for btech program in CSE. Can u please tell me if its worth it or not? And also about criteria of aid.

Ans: KJ Somaiya Vidyavihar’s BTech CSE program is highly regarded, with 80–90% placement rates over the past three years and top recruiters including Microsoft, Google, and JP Morgan, supported by 100+ companies annually and a robust internship ecosystem offering stipends and full-semester paid internships. The faculty is well-qualified, with most professors holding M.Tech or PhDs from reputed institutions, and are generally supportive and approachable, though teaching effectiveness can vary, so proactive learning is important. The campus offers a good faculty-student ratio and active academic support. Financial aid is available for students with annual family income up to ?8 lakh, covering up to 100% tuition concession for EWS, PWD, and wards of defense personnel, with scholarships also for merit-cum-need and women, requiring income certificates, SOP, and academic records at admission. Somaiya’s aid continues through the course if attendance and CGPA criteria are met, and the process is transparent but competitive due to limited funds. The recommendation is to consider KJ Somaiya for CSE if you value strong placements, modern infrastructure, and accessible financial aid, provided you are proactive in academics and meet the aid eligibility requirements. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

98.62 percentile in mhtcet, what colleges to except for a degree in cse , please list the names of colleges which are best for each field , and please give guidance on faculty's teaching quality

Ans: With a 98.62 percentile in MHT CET, you are eligible for Computer Science Engineering (CSE) in several top Maharashtra colleges, though not the absolute top tier. The CSE cutoff for COEP Pune is 99.89, VJTI Mumbai 99.5–99.7, SPIT Mumbai 99.0–99.4, and PICT Pune 98.5–99.2, so PICT Pune is realistically within reach for you. DJ Sanghvi (98.5–99.0), Cummins (96.5–98.0, for girls), MIT World Peace University (94.0–96.5), and PCCOE Pune (91.0–94.0) are also strong options where your percentile meets or exceeds the typical CSE cutoff. Faculty quality at PICT Pune and SPIT Mumbai is highly rated, with most professors holding advanced degrees and industry experience, while MIT-WPU and PCCOE Pune also offer experienced faculty, modern labs, and active industry collaborations. These colleges maintain strong placement records, with CSE placement rates consistently above 90% and recruiters including TCS, Infosys, Amazon, and Microsoft.

The recommendation is to prioritize PICT Pune, DJ Sanghvi, Cummins (if eligible), MIT-WPU, and PCCOE Pune for CSE, as they offer excellent faculty, robust placement support, and strong academic environments at your percentile. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Career

Sir my son got rank 12981 in comedk and 9376 in srmjeee which is good for him and will he be able to get cse

Ans: Meenu Madam, With a COMEDK rank of 12,981, your son can secure CSE in several mid-tier Karnataka colleges such as Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (if it accepts COMEDK Rank this year), CMR Institute of Technology, RNS Institute of Technology, and JSS Academy, as 2024 closing ranks for CSE in these colleges ranged from 11,543 to 17,631. However, top Bangalore colleges like RVCE, BMSCE, and MSRIT close CSE admissions well below 8,000, making them out of reach. With a 9,376 rank in SRMJEEE, he is just outside the CSE cutoff for SRM Kattankulathur main campus, which typically closes around 8,000–9,000 for CSE, but he can comfortably get CSE at SRM’s Ramapuram, Vadapalani, Tiruchirappalli, and Delhi NCR campuses, where cutoffs extend up to 65,000–68,000. Both routes offer strong placement records, but SRM campuses have a more uniform placement process and wider recruiter base, while Bangalore colleges offer the advantage of location in India’s tech hub. The recommendation is to opt for CSE at SRM Ramapuram, Vadapalani, or NCR campuses for assured CSE admission and robust placements, while keeping mid-tier COMEDK colleges as backup options if you prefer a Bangalore location and are open to a broader range of colleges. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir My son is getting Dtu/Nsut/IIITB/IIITD/Nit Kkr cse and ece at Mnit/Mnnit/IIITA/Nit Calicut and Eee at Nit trichy/surathkal/warangal so what should he prefer. Currently he don't know much about his interest So what will be the best choice for him.

Ans: With opportunities in CSE at DTU, NSUT, IIIT B, IIIT D, and NIT Kurukshetra, ECE at MNIT Jaipur, MNNIT Allahabad, IIIT A, NIT Calicut, and EEE at NIT Trichy, Surathkal, or Warangal, prioritizing branch-to-institute fit matters most. For broad software roles, CSE at IIIT Delhi (100%–95% placements) or NSUT (90%–82%) ensures top recruiter access and rigorous academics. ECE at MNIT Jaipur (75%–70%) and NIT Calicut (97%–85%) balances hardware and software exposure, while IIIT Allahabad (98% placements) offers interdisciplinary projects. EEE delivers strong core placements—Trichy at 97%–88%, Surathkal at ~90%, and Warangal at ~88%–79%—ideal if power and systems appeal. Since he’s undecided, CSE at IIIT Delhi or NSUT offers the most versatile career pathways and consistent placement support across domains. The recommendation is to choose CSE at IIIT Delhi or NSUT for maximal flexibility, high placement percentages, and wide industry reach. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Devendra, VIT Chennai’s ECE program, with a 360-student intake, boasts 80–85% placement over the last three years, driven by 118 recruiters including Cisco, Intel, and Samsung; its modern labs, 24/7 Wi-Fi, and industry-aligned curriculum are complemented by a strong coding culture and centralised VIT placement cell offering 3,160 total offers in 2025.

I got 98.53 in mhtcet can I get ece in coep

Ans: A 98.53 percentile in MHT CET places you near the Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering closing cutoff at COEP, which was 99.73–99.91 in recent rounds for the General category, making admission highly unlikely in Round 1 and 2. In Round 3, the GOPENS closing percentile for ECE at COEP was 99.73, corresponding to a closing rank of 221, well above a 98.53 percentile (approximately rank 600–700). Even with slight downward shifts in later rounds, ECE at COEP typically requires at least a 99.3 percentile to secure a seat. Therefore, with 98.53 percentile, you are unlikely to obtain ECE at COEP through the state quota; consider alternative colleges or branches with lower cutoffs.
The recommendation is to explore Electronics & Telecommunication seats at institutes like PICT Pune or SPIT Mumbai, where closing percentiles range from 98.5–99.5, or target Electrical or Civil Engineering at COEP, which have lower cutoffs near 97–98 percentile. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hello sir, I'm giving nios on demand exam but the dates are not available yet I think the exam will be held in July and I'll get results by September first week I want to take admission in Chennai or banglore I've given comedk but can't apply for counselling as I don't have 12th marksheet. Non of the college is accepting my admission without 12th marksheet. Will I be able to take late admission in Cse at Bangalore or Chennai after September?

Ans: Hello dear, If the seats are vacant for CSE or any branch, there is a possibility in private colleges. But according to government rules, once the counseling process ends, the admission process also closes. Therefore, review the entire counseling timetable of your state and note the last date of counseling. The situation will become clear to you naturally. Still, stay in touch with some private college administration and seek their opinion about your current situation. If they wish, they can guide you properly.
Best of luck.
