Jitendra Question by Jitendra on Jul 24, 2025Hindi

Which branch and college do he get with this ranking by csab .is chans of getting chemical engineering and civil engineering at Bits campus goa and hyderabad with Bits score 199.?

Ans: With an SC?category rank of 11 500 in JEE Main, admission into core engineering branches at most NITs and IIITs through CSAB Special Rounds is feasible under the (SC) quota, as 2024 SC?closing ranks for Chemical and Civil Engineering at several NITs (e.g., NIT Surathkal Chemical SC at 18 485, Civil SC at 24 363; NIT Puducherry Chemical SC at 70 409; Civil SC at 82 277) all exceed 11 500. Thus, your SC rank comfortably falls within the cutoff band for Chemical and Civil across tier-2 NITs and many GFTIs.

A BITSAT score of 199, however, corresponds to a rank bracket (~32 000+) below the usual Chemical and Civil cutoffs at BITS Goa (Chemical 239; Civil 238 out of 390) and BITS Hyderabad (Chemical 238; Civil 235), making admission to Chemical or Civil at both Goa and Hyderabad campuses unlikely.

Recommendation: Given your SC rank, pursue CSAB counselling for Chemical or Civil Engineering in NITs under the SC quota, and explore allied branches at GFTIs as backup. With a BITSAT score of 199, focus instead on securing a reserved?quota NIT seat rather than expecting BITS Goa/Hyderabad admission.

Sir my son has jee mains ranking 218400 and sc category in 11500 and he got marks 199 in Bits Exams . is it chans get seat in csab counseling ? and is it get seat in Bits? And which best private college in cse for studies and placements.
Ans: Jitendra Sir, With a JEE Main CRL of 218,400 and SC category rank of 11,500, admission to Computer Science and Engineering via CSAB special rounds at NITs or IIIT is effectively closed, as even the most remote campuses’ SC?category CSE cutoffs lie well within the 40,000–60,000 rank band. GFTIs likewise do not offer SC?category CSE seats beyond a 100,000 rank threshold, making CSAB counselling unviable for CSE. A BITSAT score of 199 places your son in a rank bracket above 32,000, below the typical CSE cutoffs for all BITS campuses, thus precluding admission there as well. Consequently, the most reliable pathway is through private engineering colleges that maintain robust CSE programmes, strong accreditations, modern infrastructure, active industry linkages and consistent placement records.

Among northern India’s private universities, reputed options for CSE include J.C. Bose University of Science & Technology (YMCA UST) Faridabad, Jaypee Institute of Information Technology Noida, Galgotias University Greater Noida, and Chandigarh University. These institutions offer accredited CSE curricula, specialized AI/ML and software labs, dedicated placement cells with 80–95% three-year placement consistency, and extensive corporate partnerships. Their eligibility via JEE Main and institutional entrance tests makes them attainable and ensures quality education and strong career prospects.

Recommendation:
Since CSAB and BITSAT options for CSE are not practical, focus on applying to the CSE program at Manipal Campus (if an MQ Seat is available), YMCA Faridabad, JIIT Noida, Galgotias University, and Chandigarh University because they have a good mix of accreditation, facilities, experienced teachers, industry connections, and successful job placements. Ensure timely completion of each institute’s admission processes and consider scholarship and hostel options to optimize both academic experience and return on investment. Ensure you include several of your state’s leading private engineering colleges as backup options for admission with your JEE score. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Tech Careers and Skill Development Expert - Answered on Dec 05, 2025

Dear Sir, I did my BTech from a normal engineering college not very famous. The teaching was not great and hence i did not study well. I tried my best to learn coding including all the technologies like html,css,javascript,react js,dba,php because i wanted to be a web developer But nothing seem to enter my head except html and css. I don't understand a language which has more complexities. Is it because of my lack of experience or not devoting enough time. I am not sure. I did many courses online and tried to do diplomas also abroad which i passed somehow. I recently joined android development course because i like apps but the teaching was so fast that i could not memorize anything. There was no time to even take notes down. During the course i did assignments and understood the code because i have to pass but after the course is over i tend to forget everything. I attempted a lot of interviews. Some of them i even got but could not perform well so they let me go. Now due to the AI booming and job markets in a bad shape i am re-thinking whether to keep studying or whether its just time waste. Since 3 years i am doing labour type of jobs which does not yield anything to me for survival and to pay my expenses. I have the quest to learn everything but as soon as i sit in front of the computer i listen to music or read something else. What should i do to stay more focused? What should i do to make myself believe confident. Is there still scope of IT in todays world? Kindly advise.
Ans: Your story does not show failure.
It shows persistence, effort, and desire to improve.

Most people give up.
You didn’t.
That means you will succeed — but with the right method, not the old one.

Relationship
My married ex still texts me for comfort. Because of him, I am unable to move on. He makes me feel guilty by saying he got married out of family pressure. His dad is a cardiac patient and mom is being treated for cancer. He comforts me by saying he will get separated soon and we will get married because he only loves me. We have been in a relationship for 14 years and despite everything we tried, his parents refused to accept me, so he chose to get married to someone who understands our situation. I don't know when he will separate from his wife. She knows about us too but she comes from a traditional family. She also confirmed there is no physical intimacy between them. I trust him, but is it worth losing my youth for him? Honestly, I am worried and very confused.
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand how difficult it is to let go of a relationship you have built from scratch, but is it really how you want to continue? It really seems to be going nowhere. His parents are already in bad health and he married someone else for their happiness. Does it seem like he will be able to leave her? So many people’s happiness and lives depend on this one decision. I think it’s about time you and your BF have a clear conversation about the same. If he can’t give a proper timeline, please try to understand his situation. But also make sure he understands yours and maybe rethink this equation. It really isn’t healthy. You deserve a love you can have wholly, and not just in pieces, and in the shadows.

Hope this helps
