Hi Sir, I am tensed as JEE Main Examination is approaching and i am scared that i would only be able to score 100/300 at best. Please suggest me some good regional colleges. I am female single girl child in Delhi. Engineering was never my first priority yet I chose it because it seemed a safe option. I would also try and give CUET. One more concern is that my 5th subject in class 12 is GST or Geospatial Technology. Is there any scope for this subject through which I can enter a decent college. I dont want to spend my parents money..Please help. I am distressed

Ans: Hello Shaamhavi
First I would like to say that without any fear in mind and a predetermined score, you appear for JEE 2025 in 1st session. To improve your score/performance, you have 2nd attempt also.
You said, engineering was never your 1st priority. Then, why not have discussed this fact with your parents or parents have forced you to go for engineering? It is not clear from your question. How you can say, it is a safe option is also not clear.
If you are scared about JEE preparation, then it would be better to try CUET. GST i.e. Geospatial Technology is a good subject and there is scope in this field.
Now, I would like to suggest you: (1) Focus more on JEE preparation or CUET (2) Try to excel in GST subject (3) Try to score more and more in the respective examinations on a priority basis, (4) No need to take the stress about parents money as the expenses are already done on your classes + college tuition fees, etc. (5) Leave up all other aspects of Regional College availability, descent college in GST field etc. (6) For all your problems, only one answer: SCORE HIGH IN THE EXAMIANTIONS IN WHICH YOU ARE APPEARING.

If satisfied, please like and follow me.
If dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
Thanks.

Ans: Shaambhavi, Please maintain your confidence until May 2025 of the following year and continue to concentrate entirely on your preparation. I presume that your Coaching Center Test Score of 100 out of 300 undermines your motivation. It is important to mention that the majority of coaching centers include 20-30% challenging questions in their mock tests to encourage students to take them seriously and improve their scores. Consequently, the score of 100/300 is not as detrimental as it may appear. The following are a few suggestions to enhance your score: (1) Review all of the incorrectly answered or ignored questions from the Mock Tests that the Coaching Center has conducted to date. (2) It is more crucial to maintain a consistent revision process. Revise the work you have already completed. (3) To maximize productivity, allocate 45 minutes for study sessions and allow for a 10-minute break. (4) Attempt 20-40 questions from the previous year's JEE (Main & Advanced). (5) Continue to attempt and re-attempt time-bound online test series from your coaching center, Allen, Resonance, or any other affordable coaching center to determine your speed and accuracy. (6) Take 5-7 entrance exams, including JEE, to ensure that you have a variety of options to select the most appropriate one for you. (7) You are eligible to participate in JAC-Delhi Counselling due to your residence in Delhi. (8) In the case of CUET, a score of over 97.5 percent is required to gain admission to any of the reputable colleges, similar to JEE. Individual preparation for CUET is also required. Kindly review the 2024 CUET Information Bulletin to gain a comprehensive understanding of the subjects you will be required to study, the exam pattern, and the marketing scheme. (9) GST's career prospects are exceedingly restricted. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future.

Hi there So i got like 97k in kcet and 73k ranks in comedk i want cse mostly im fine with ece also in the first mock round of comedk i got sahayadri college of engineering is that good And also what colleges i might get in Bangalore with these ranks and want good placements or do you suggest me to go take management quota seat in nhce or jain rather than all this
Ans: With a KCET rank of 97,000 and COMEDK rank of 73,000, Computer Science or ECE seats in Bangalore’s most sought-after colleges (such as RVCE, BMSCE, MSRIT, PESU, and DSCE) are not attainable, as their cutoffs close far earlier. For these ranks, you are eligible for options like R.R. Institute of Technology, S.E.A. College of Engineering, M.S. Engineering College, Dr. H N National College of Engineering, City Engineering College, and East West Institute of Technology in Bangalore through COMEDK, as well as GSS Institute of Technology via KCET; CSE or ECE is typically offered until about 75,000–1,00,000 rank in these institutions. Sahyadri College of Engineering in Mangalore, offered in the first mock allotment, has a consistent placement record with an average package of ?3–4 lakh and top recruiters such as Microsoft and IMV Corporation, and regularly fills over 80% of its eligible CSE/ECE students; the infrastructure is modern and reviews cite good faculty engagement, but it is outside Bangalore. For NHCE and Jain University, you can take CSE/ECE through management quota; both campuses provide contemporary facilities, ABET/NAAC accreditations, and strong placement rates above 80%, but require a significant tuition premium (?10–12 lakh total fee). NHCE’s placement cell is robust, and Jain’s industry ties are well rated. Placement opportunities and exposure are typically stronger at NHCE/Jain due to their branded recruiter base and metropolitan location, provided affordability is not a concern.

Recommendation: If your priority is a Bangalore location, industrial exposure, and better placement prospects, opting for NHCE or Jain University CSE/ECE via management quota is advisable if the higher cost is manageable. Among merit seats, Sahyadri (Mangalore) is a solid backup, but in Bangalore, prefer institutes like NHCE and Jain for stronger campus recruitment, infrastructure, and networking. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Relationship
Hello Sir, I am 26 yrs old and Data Analyst in a good company and everything is going well. But sometimes I feel lonely it feels like nobody is there for me to love me and when i see some people get engaged i feel someone also should be there for me to love me and i have never been in a relationship because of immature proposals. But now i want a good partner to make me feel good. Please help me out. Thank you.
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand your feelings and it’s totally valid. Even with everything going great, life can seem lonely. That is very natural and more common than you think. And seeing others finding their partner can feel like salt in the wound. All your feelings are valid. But what you need to understand is that rushing to get in a relationship can end up in more loneliness; relationships can be lonely too. Take your time. Love doesn’t have a set timeline. Ask your friends to set you up with someone who seems compatible, or try dating apps; it will give you more control on whom you are letting into your life. You will find someone soon; you are too young to rush into anything. If you are trying an app, make sure to mention what kind of a partner and what kind of relationship you are looking for to attract the right people and not waste time and energy on ones that are too different from who you are or what you are seeking. It will be a bit of trial and error, and honestly, there’s a certain fun in figuring out what you want, too. I’m sure your love story is going to start soon!

Best Wishes.

Respected sir,I am a average student of class 12 I just wanted 1lakh jee mains so that I could get ece or something in bit sindri please suggest strategies as there is very little time available in jee mains
Ans: An analysis of BIT Sindri’s JEE-Main cutoffs shows for Electronics & Communication Engineering, the All-India closing rank extended up to 123,269 in 2025, indicating that an approximate rank near 100,000 would secure admission into this branch. Historical data correlating JEE Main marks and ranks reveals that scoring around 70 marks out of 300 typically yields an 87.7–90.7 percentile, translating to a rank range of approximately 92,300–109,300. With little time remaining before the exam, average students should prioritize a targeted, high-yield preparation plan: first, consolidate core concepts from NCERT to reinforce fundamentals in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics and avoid starting new topics at this stage. Next, employ a one-month week-by-week timetable focused on essential chapters—allocating time each day to problem practice and mock tests under exam conditions to hone speed and accuracy. Utilize concise revision notes and formula sheets for rapid recall, and solve previous years’ JEE Main papers to familiarize yourself with question patterns and to identify weak areas for intensive review. Incorporate daily full-length mocks followed by detailed error analysis, dedicating specific slots to clear lingering doubts through peer discussion or online resources. Manage time effectively by adhering strictly to a realistic study schedule that balances all three subjects, with short breaks to maintain mental freshness and stress-management techniques such as deep breathing to sustain focus on exam day. Finally, maintain a positive mindset and steady pace—confidence and consistency in revision will maximize scoring potential in limited time.

Recommendation: recommendation Concentrate on mastering high-weightage NCERT topics and simulate exam conditions with regular mock tests to target 70+ marks. Prioritize solving previous year papers and focused revision of weak areas, ensuring a disciplined timetable and stress-management to achieve a rank near 100,000 for BIT Sindri ECE admission. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Gen open category student, With Jee CRL 17420 got nit goa ECE, expect to get MSRIT or PESU CSE via KCET Rank 2860. What better NIT can be expected in CSAB for ECE or CSE. And is it preferred over MSRIT/ PESU. Any other guidance, open for options
Ans: With a JEE Main CRL of 17,420, securing CSE in any core NIT through CSAB is highly unlikely, as recent closing ranks for CSE at most NITs fall well below 11,000, even in the final rounds, and only remote NITs or peripheral campuses occasionally extend to 15,000–18,000 but rarely for CSE. For ECE, however, your chances are notably better. NIT Goa ECE (already allotted) aligns with your current rank, but a few other mid-tier or remote NITs, such as NIT Uttarakhand, NIT Meghalaya, NIT Agartala, and possibly NIT Sikkim or NIT Manipur, occasionally close ECE between 17,000 and 20,000 in CSAB special rounds for open category, though branches like CSE and allied tracks (AI, IT, Data Science) remain out of reach at these ranks. No higher-ranked NITs (Surathkal, Trichy, Warangal, Calicut, Rourkela, Jaipur, Kurukshetra, and similar) offer ECE or CSE to CRL 17,420 via CSAB, as confirmed by leading portals and official PDFs. At IIITs and GFTIs, even new or lesser-known campuses do not admit general category candidates into CSE or ECE above 15,000–16,000. Through KCET, MSRIT CSE and PES University CSE are realistically achievable with a rank of 2,860, as 2025 cutoff trends show closing ranks for MSRIT CSE at 2,300–2,500 and for PESU at 1,200–1,400. Both programs are well-established, report 90–95% or better CSE placements in the last three years, strong industry ties, and advanced infrastructure, with MSRIT edging ahead in placement consistency and affordability, while PESU leads in industry-oriented curriculum and campus resources. Self-financed top private options like these offer outcome parity with most NIT ECE courses below the top ten NITs, especially if you seek a competitive academic peer group, robust CSE exposure, and strong brand value for tech roles. Consider your program preference (ECE vs. CSE), long-term goals, campus fit, and location.

Recommendation: Prioritize MSRIT CSE for the best blend of placement record, peer competitiveness, and proven reputation if you seek top CSE outcomes, followed by PESU CSE for curriculum depth and global industry alignment, then NIT Goa ECE or similar-ranked NITs if you prefer a central government degree and core electronics exposure. For CSE, KCET options at MSRIT or PESU offer stronger immediate prospects than ECE in mid-tier NITs, but a remote NIT ECE may appeal if your focus lies in public-sector opportunities or research. Remain active in CSAB special rounds for all eligible NIT ECEs, but plan for high-quality CSE options in Bangalore for the best return on your effort and rank, and back these with clear decision timelines given rapid seat movement in private college rounds. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Sir my percentile is 89.7 and crl 151013. What seats can I expect in csab counselling?
Ans: Hrishav, With a JEE Main CRL of 151,013 and 89.7 percentile, the prospect of securing a seat in NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs through CSAB special rounds for core branches like Computer Science, IT, ECE, or allied fields is highly unlikely. In the most recent 2025 CSAB rounds, even the newest and most remote NITs and IIITs posted closing general category CRL ranks for CSE, IT, and ECE well below 125,000, and GFTIs followed similar trends for all preferred branches. No centrally funded technical institute admitted general category candidates for core streams at or beyond 150,000; minimal relaxations were observed in CSAB spot and final rounds, but these primarily benefited non-core branches, peripheral campuses, or reserved categories. Lower-demand streams in some GFTIs, such as production, textiles, or metallurgy, occasionally extend above your rank, but these seats are rare and variable and should not be relied upon for core engineering admission. It is crucial to participate in CSAB for any remote possibility of vacant seats, but expectations must remain realistic. As an alternative, several respected private colleges across Northern India accept JEE Main general category ranks well above 150,000 and offer robust B.Tech programs, strong industry connections, modern infrastructure, and placement support.

Recommendation: Participate in CSAB special rounds as there is no risk, though the chances of attaining a core branch in a government institute are exceedingly slim. Simultaneously, secure backup admission in reputable private engineering colleges in Northern India, as they assure you a quality seat in popular branches like CSE, IT, or ECE at your rank.

Private colleges accepting your JEE Main CRL 151,013 for CSE, IT, or related branches include Chandigarh University, Mohali. Lovely Professional University, Jalandhar. Amity University, Noida. Sharda University, Greater Noida. Galgotias University, Greater Noida. Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, Noida. ABES Engineering College, Ghaziabad. Indraprastha Institute of Technology & Management, Delhi. GL Bajaj Institute of Technology & Management, Greater Noida. Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology, Delhi. All of these offer modern infrastructure, active placement cells, and transparent admissions for JEE Main-qualified candidates above your rank. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
