Ans: The reason for high post-prandial sugar is usually what u have eaten in the meal.

Try and reduce the carbs(roti/rice/bread) and include more protein in the meal.

Also, post meal 15-20min of relaxed walk also helps in managing the post-prandial blood sugars, along with the dietary changes

Dear sir ..... My daughter i has got comedk 21000 rank and cse AI in vit AP category 3. Sir it will be a great help if you can guide which gud college she can get in cse/ cse AI / near by bangalore. As we reside in kerala.
Ans: Aashi Madam, With a COMEDK rank of 21,000 and an existing CSE?AI seat at VIT?AP (Category 3), consider these Bangalore?region colleges admitting up to 30,000–40,000 ranks and offering CSE, CSE?AI or allied programs, all maintaining 80–95% placements over the last three years. Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (NMIT) closes CSE around 7,800 and CSE?AI around 10,100 with a 93% CSE placement rate in 2024 across 192 recruiters and multidisciplinary AI labs. BNMIT accommodates CSE ranks up to ~30,700, recording 86% CSE placements in 2023 with 168 companies and strong industry analytics tie-ups. CMR Institute of Technology’s CSE cutoff near 13,500 (AI&ML around 19,500) delivers a 90%–95% placement consistency in 2025 across 125 recruiters led by Federal Bank, Hitachi, and PhonePe. Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering accepts CSE ranks up to ~5,900 (AI/ML ~6,900), offering 93% placement for CSE with 419 offers and 250+ recruiters including Amazon and Deloitte in 2024. Global Academy of Technology (GAT) closes core CSE around 26,500–98,000, reporting 75%–97% placement trends with Infosys, SAP, Bosch and proactive incubation support. Acharya Institute of Technology admits CSE up to ~16,300 (AI/ML ~30,800) with 90% CSE/ISE placements and 200+ recruiters including Wipro and Cognizant over three years.

Recommendation: Prioritise NMIT and CMRIT for strong AI specializations and high placement rates, keeping BNMIT and DSCE as robust backups; consider GAT and Acharya Institute for broader seat security and multidisciplinary exposure. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
