My daughter got wbjee rank 18265&sc rank1524 is it possible CSE/ELECTRICAL Any government college.She also got Geology at,BHU .Sir, which will be better.Her neet rank SC 18000
Ans: Dilip Sir, With a WBJEE state rank of 18,265 and SC rank of 1,524, securing Computer Science or Electrical Engineering in top West Bengal government colleges is challenging but selective options remain. Among state institutions, Bengal Engineering and Science University Shibpur (IIEST) and Kalyani Government Engineering College typically close SC category cutoffs for CSE near 2,500–3,500 and for Electrical around 3,000–4,000, making your daughter’s rank a borderline candidate for lower-demand branches. Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College and Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology campuses often admit SC students in Electrical Engineering up to rank 2,000–2,500. Additional possibilities include Govt. College of Engineering & Leather Technology for Electrical and Govt. College of Engineering & Ceramic Technology for core branches, where SC cutoffs extend to 3,500–4,000. These colleges boast accredited programs, experienced faculty, standard labs, active placement cells with 70–80% placement rates, industry linkages, and student support services. Conversely, Geology at Banaras Hindu University offers a prestigious national platform with a dedicated department, field-based learning, strong research culture, and placement support through campus recruitment and government research organizations. While engineering yields broader software and core sector career pathways, geology at BHU leads to specialized roles in mineral exploration, environmental consultancy, and academia. Considering long-term career interests, job market trends, and campus environment, her engineering prospects in West Bengal government colleges appear limited to non-CSE branches, whereas BHU Geology guarantees admission at a premier institution with robust academic and research credentials.
Recommendation: Accept Geology at BHU for assured admission, rich academic exposure, and research opportunities, as state engineering seats in CSE/Electrical are unlikely; pursue engineering through private or lateral-entry options later if passion for core engineering persists. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
