Health

Hi Rediff Gurus, I have smoking habit and doing smoke from last 30 Years. How I can get rid off, this habit.

Ans: Hello. The best way to quit is cold turkey. Decide upon a low stress time in your life, start reducing by half and one fine day just quit. You may want to start a new hobby or some fun sport as a distraction to take care of the occasional craving. If you have already tried several times and failed, no worries, there are some medications that could help support you. You can see a Physician/ pulmonologist/ psychiatrist for the same.

Ans: Hello dear.
With a score of 96.95 %tile and EWS category, it will be challenging to get CSE/AI/DS in NITs. But keep a close eye on the admission process and fill the options with utmost care. At this percentile, you may get sure admission in IIITs. Pl focus more on 2nd attempt of JEE so that you can improve your score and get admission to CSE @ NIT.
