Sir, Which branch of core engineering has better scope?

Ans: Hello Debajit
There are basic three core engineering branches namely Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical. All these branches have equal scope. Considering your interest, choose the branch. To elaborate more, in recent years, students have chosen the Electrical Branch. Energy is the need of the hour and has a wide scope. The Govt of India and other countries are continuously working on the energy sector as its requirements are rising day by day. This is a very cool branch. Many JEE (Adv) toppers opted Electrical Engineering branch.
Yet, choice is yours.

Sir my son got 77377 crl rank in mains and 24k obc ncl rank with homestate rajasthan can he get any college with branch like cse/it/ai/ece Or what about gl bajaj delhi

Ans: Ashish Sir, With an OBC-CL home-state rank of 24 000, admission into core branches at Rajasthan’s MNIT Jaipur and IIIT Kota via CSAB-Special is feasible for certain programmes, while seats at other NITs/IIITs will likely remain out of reach.

At MNIT Jaipur, the Home-State OBC-NCL closing rank for Computer Science & Engineering extended to about 49 000 in CSAB-Special Round 2, making CSE admission virtually assured with your daughter’s rank. However, ECE seats under HS-OBC-NCL closed near 3 400, and AI/Data Science around 6 800, both well below 24 000, so these branches are not attainable at MNIT Jaipur.

IIIT Kota, as a Rajasthan campus, offers Home-State HS-OBC-NCL seats in CSE closing near 67 000, Artificial Intelligence & Data Engineering near 10 500, and ECE close around 12 600, all of which comfortably cover an OBC-NCL rank of 24 000, making these programmes strong targets in CSAB-Special.

Beyond these, other NITs in non-home-state quotas (e.g., NIT Calicut, NIT Uttarakhand) and peripheral IIITs may fill seats well below 24 000 under OS-OBC-NCL quotas, but they will not benefit from Home-State priority. Government-Funded Technical Institutes like PEC Chandigarh and MIET Jhansi admit CSE/ECE under OBC-NCL up to ranks of 40 000–70 000, offering additional assured pathways. GL Bajaj Delhi, as a private institution, participates in state or university counselling (e.g., JAC Delhi), not CSAB, and hence is not an option in this process.

Recommendation
Prioritise Computer Science & Engineering at MNIT Jaipur under HS-OBC-NCL for its assured cutoff. Simultaneously apply to IIIT Kota’s CSE and AI/DE programmes under HS-OBC-NCL for guaranteed admission. As backups within CSAB, list IIIT Kota ECE and GFTIs like PEC Chandigarh for core-branch seats under OBC-NCL quotas. However, have some Private Engineering Colleges as back-ups with son's JEE Score instead of relying only on CSAB. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Which should we choose for CSE - JSS university Noida or JSS Academy of Technical Education Noida ? It is heard that management is migrating to University set-up from the old college set-up affiliated with AKTU . So they are giving more importance to JSS university . Which one should we choose for our daughter for CSE ?

Ans: Hello dear.
Prefer CSE @ JSS Academy if possible. But if you are at the stage of finalizing the admission, it is highly recommended to visit both campuses, talk with the existing students, and ask the management or administrative authorities clearly about what you heard regarding migration and other issues. It is better to have a face-to-face conversation for more clarity. It is not possible for anyone to know the hidden decisions that the universities or institutes may take.

Good luck.

Hi sir! I have got 73.39 percentile in jee mains and 88.89 percentile in mht cet exam. I have taken a drop for preparation of mht cet examination as I wanted to go in COEP tech branch. My question is that am I still eligible for jee mains 2026 examination as I have got 68 percent in boards.

Ans: Hello dear.
Yes, you are still eligible for JEE Mains 2026 because the eligibility criteria allow candidates to appear for JEE three consecutive years after passing Class 12, regardless of previous attempts. However, for admission to NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs, you need at least 75% in boards (65% for SC/ST). Since you have 68%, you won’t be eligible for these top institutes through JEE Main unless you improve your board marks via improvement exams, but private colleges or state counseling options will still be available.

Suggestion:
Better to take admission to any preferred private college with a choice of branch to save time, money, and an extra year. There is no guarantee of success after taking a drop. Taking a drop can create stress and headaches. The final decision will be yours.

Good luck.

I have bits Hyderabad msc bio and I have 1800 rank in mht cet so I might get spit cs so which one should I take ?

Ans: Hello dear.
Prefer CS @ SPIT if possible. However, considering the brand name, BITS Hyderabad has more advantage because it is a dual degree. If your interest is focused on research, then go with BITS; otherwise, choose SPIT. The final decision will be yours.
