I have got bits pilani ME in design engineer is it worth doing or I should give one more try to gate exam so that I can get some iit it is coming in my mind due to the high fees of bits
Ans: BITS Pilani’s two-year M.E. in Design Engineering carries a total tuition and associated fee burden of approximately ?11.47 lakh, and though ranked #20 in NIRF 2024, it has achieved placement rates of about 73.6% with a median salary of ?16.15 LPA in 2024, reflecting solid but not exceptional absorption into design and engineering roles. Admission is based on the BITS HD test or GATE, yet the high out-of-pocket expense and competitive stipend-free model contrast starkly with GATE-based IIT M.Tech programs, which waive tuition entirely, provide monthly stipends, and consistently record placement percentages above 83.5%, peaking at 90% in previous years, across core and technology sectors. Opting for BITS Pilani secures specialized design training and brand recognition but at significant personal cost, whereas a strong GATE performance could yield a no-fee, stipend-supported IIT M.Tech with higher placement consistency and broader career flexibility.

Recommendation: Seek to retake GATE for entry into a fully funded IIT M.Tech to benefit from zero tuition, stipends, and superior placement rates; pursue BITS Pilani M.E. in Design only if you value immediate specialization in design engineering and can comfortably manage the high fees. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Mhcet 96.3 percentile, girl, and got nmims CSE, Jaipur manipal CSE, may get electronics communication in dj Sangvi or spit. Very much interested in CSE. Should we try other colleges or prefer nmims as we r from mumbai
Ans: With a 96.3 percentile, you already have NMIMS Mumbai CSE and Manipal University Jaipur CSE on table, and could compete for Electronics & Communication at DJS Sanghvi or SPIT, though those streams close above 98 percentile. Other reputable Mumbai/Navi Mumbai and Pune institutes admitting CSE/IT candidates at your percentile include Ramrao Adik Institute of Technology, Navi Mumbai (CSE cutoff 95.07%ile), Don Bosco Institute of Technology, Mumbai (CSE cutoff 95.85%ile), Thakur College of Engineering & Technology, Thane (CSE cutoff 95.47%ile), AISSMS College of Engineering, Pune (CSE cutoff 96.42%ile), D. Y. Patil Institute of Technology, Pune (IT cutoff 94.98%ile), Government College of Engineering & Research, Avasari Khurd (CSE cutoff 95.06%ile), Fr. C. Rodrigues Institute of Technology, Vashi (CSE cutoff 96.35%ile), Terna Engineering College, Nerul (CSE admitted at low cutoffs, GOPENS ~39.5%ile), MIT Academy of Engineering, Pune (DEFOPENS CSE cutoff 94.17%ile), and Rajarambapu Institute of Technology, Islampur (EWS CSE cutoff 90.83–94.75%ile). These colleges offer modern infrastructure, dedicated training and placement cells, and placement rates ranging from 75% to 90% over the last three years across CSE/IT branches, making them realistic and strong alternatives to NMIMS CSE for a Mumbai-domicile student.

Recommendation: Prioritise NMIMS Mumbai CSE for its brand value and placement consistency, then consider Ramrao Adik and Don Bosco Institute in Mumbai for assured CSE seats and strong placements; keep AISSMS Pune, D. Y. Patil Pune, TCET Thane, and Fr. C. Rodrigues Vashi as top backup options, with Terna, MITAOE and RIT Islampur as additional fallbacks. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

B.tech computer science and engineering with specialization in software engineering at SRM Ktr campus
Ans: B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering with specialization in Software Engineering at SRM Kattankulathur (KTR) is a four-year program with an annual intake of 180 students and a total fee of ?17 lakh. The SRM KTR campus is highly ranked (NIRF 2024: #13 for engineering), offers robust infrastructure, and provides students with access to over 1,000 recruiters, including top tech firms like Microsoft, Amazon, Infosys, and Google. Placement rates for CSE and its specializations, including Software Engineering, consistently range from 88% to 91% over the last three years, with average packages around ?7.2–7.5 LPA and highest offers exceeding ?50 LPA. The Software Engineering specialization focuses on advanced software development, project management, and industry-relevant tools, preparing graduates for roles in software design, development, and systems architecture. Students benefit from modern labs, active clubs, and internship opportunities, though faculty quality and research output receive mixed reviews. The admission process is through SRMJEEE or JEE Main, and the cutoff for CSE specializations at KTR typically extends up to 8,000–10,000 rank in Phase 2, making it moderately competitive.

recommendation: SRM KTR’s B.Tech CSE (Software Engineering) offers strong placements, industry exposure, and a specialized curriculum suited for software careers; it is a solid choice if you seek a tech-focused environment with consistent placement support and modern campus facilities. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
