I lead a normal life, do exercises regularly, have a slight ache around the left side of the back, between the spine and the ribs ( had spondylitis in 2018 ) but other than that no other issues as such. I drink one to two pegs of Whiskey for 4 days a week. Non-Veg, have high pressure and cholesterol ( 185 ), for which I take medicines. Glucose Fasting level last checked in January, 2023 was - 106.50, while Creatinine was around 2.19, last checked was 2.06 in January, 2023. Please advise, if I should continue the same way. Thanks.

Sir, i had given PCB 12th board exam in 2023 and passed it. Later i joined a BPT course but didn't find any interest in it. I gave math isolate board exam this year in 2025. I want to do civil engineering. How shall i fill the application for CAP rounds conducted by CET cell or Direct second year diploma (dsd25)?
Ans: Hello Arya,
Since you did not appear for MHT-CET, you can't apply for CAP rounds. It would be better to go for the 2nd-year diploma. After completing the diploma, you can take admission to the B.E. (Civil) course.
Best of luck.

I had taken admission in Allen Amritsar, but now I am deciding to shift to Allenn Kota reason being almost 3 hours of travelling daily and in search of a better environment for serious study and I have 2 options now, either I can choose a batch that is already going on like which I was studying here. I would continue studying there or the second option I have is I can take a newly started batch there so that I will be I will be ahead of everyone in the batch and I will be able to cover some extra books since I've already completed, the allen modules and I'll ahead of batch. It would be beneficial for me also, and so please suggest me. What are the pros and cons of it also and I have scored 99.6% in my boards in class, 10th CBSE and expectations from everyone are so high so please give some additional advice so that I can create the best life for me so that I can achieve my dream of IIT JEE 2027 under 500 rank, I'm currently in grade 11th.
Ans: Hello dear. Moving from Amritsar to Kota does not guarantee success. Stay in a calm and quiet place with a good teaching environment. Focus on completing the syllabus on time. Regularly appear for class tests, prepare your own notes, and solve previous years' question papers. Stay in touch with past successful students for more tips. Regularly participate in online tests conducted on various platforms. Be confident in yourself. Talk less and concentrate more on studies. Use scientific methods to crack the examination. Believe in yourself. Success and a bright future are awaiting you.
Best of luck.
