In case I want to learn something from a Youtube video, I feel very sleepy and sometimes go to deep sleep while watching it, PLEASE ADVISE

Ans: Hello. This is quite normal especially if you are stretching yourself. If you're getting 8 hours of sound sleep and despite that you are falling asleep during a video or online class, then you may need to be evaluated for thyroid issues, low Hemoglobin, Vitamin deficiencies or sleep quality issues.

Dr Ashit, I am having the problem of falling asleep. Even though I drifted to sleep, in the morning I feel that something was going on in the background. I tend to feel that I was constantly having some dreams... but I don't remember any dream. As a result I am feeling sleepy and exhausted for the whole day. I may doze in the meeting

Ans: I have already posted areply to someone else with a similar problem.
I am posting the same reply -
You can try to improve your sleep hygeine - i.e
Try to go to sleep and wake up at the sametime everyday — even on weekends and holidays.
Avoid consuming caffeine at least 6 hrs before bedtime. .
Make your sleeping environment comfortable.
One hour before bedtime, stop doing work or other mentally-challenging tasks.
Use your bed only for sleep or intimacy.
If you are stressed , relaxation techniques like yoga or meditation before bedtime might help.
Regular exercise, a balnaced diet and adequate fluid intake might help.
Can try taking melatonin 3 mg 1 hr before bed time.
If these measures don't work , you should consult a sleep specialist

Hello mam ,i am 22 year old male ,i have started anulom vilom recently but i am getting sleepy after doing this why ?? Can you suggest some solutions ??

Ans: It’s normal to feel sleepy after practicing Anulom Vilom, especially when you're new to it. Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) helps calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and balance energy in the body. This can make you feel relaxed, which sometimes leads to drowsiness, especially if you're already tired or stressed.

Here are some tips to avoid feeling sleepy:

Practice in the morning: You’ll feel more energized if you do Anulom Vilom when you're fresh.
Maintain an upright posture: Sit with your spine straight to stay alert.
Increase the pace: Initially, try slightly faster breathing to keep energy levels up, then gradually slow down.
Engage your mind: Focus on your breath or mentally chant “Om” to stay present and avoid drowsiness.
Balance your routine: Make sure you're not overly tired before starting. If you're fatigued, even gentle practices can lead to sleepiness.
As your body gets used to it, you’ll find it easier to stay alert and refreshed after your practice.

My son got 245 in bits .He can get any Brecht branch

Ans: Priyanka Madam, by now your son must have been allotted/not allotted any seat by BITS. Please update the status for today. However, please note, A BITSAT score of 245 situates you within the previous two years’ closing-score bands for core engineering streams at the Pilani, Goa, and Hyderabad campuses. At Pilani, the B.E. Chemical Engineering cutoff ranged from 224 in 2023 to 247 in 2024, placing your 245 close to the 2024 threshold and comfortably above 2023’s mark; B.E. Civil Engineering closed at 213 and 238, making admission highly probable; and B.E. Manufacturing Engineering cutoffs of 220 and 243 indicate a strong likelihood of allotment. At Goa, Chemical Engineering closed at 239 in 2024 and 248 in 2023, and Civil around – (not offered in 2024) – but Pilani-equivalent streams suggest safe admission; Manufacturing cutoffs mirror Pilani trends, bolstering your prospects. At Hyderabad, Chemical Engineering cutoffs of 238 and 209 over the two years ensure a secure allotment, while Civil Engineering’s 235–204 band similarly favors your score; Manufacturing at Hyderabad showed closing marks near 218–251, indicating moderate probability. Across campuses, Civil and Manufacturing remain reliably within reach, Chemical at Pilani may require waitlist movement but is feasible given historical fluctuations, and all three streams at Hyderabad and Goa present strong chances. Additional seats open during special iterations further enhance admit probabilities.

Recommendation: Considering consistent cutoff trends and seat matrices, prioritize B.E. Civil and Manufacturing Engineering at BITS Pilani for guaranteed allotment, consider Chemical Engineering at Pilani via waitlist movement, and secure Chemical, Civil, or Manufacturing Engineering at BITS Hyderabad or Goa for assured admission, capitalizing on slightly lower cutoffs and ample seat availability. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Question by Manjunath - Jul 18, 2025Hindi

Career

I am working as Business Analyst from past 4 years but I wanted to move to technical role. I have done Btech in CSE from tier-3 college. I wanted some advise on the the best way to switch to a tech role. 1. Taking some online boot camp to get in-depth knowledge and doing side projects over the weekends 2. Taking WILP from BITS in Software engineering/ data science 3. Prepare from GATE 2026 and aim for IITs

Ans: Manjunath Sir, To shift into a technical position, integrating structured learning, credentialing, and practical experience is essential. The recommended pathway combines immersive project-based training with a recognized postgraduate credential while keeping a long-term goal of elite technical qualification. Begin with a part-time online software engineering or data science bootcamp, dedicating weekends to substantial portfolio projects to build hands-on skills and confidence in key stacks . Concurrently, enroll in BITS Pilani’s Work-Integrated M.Tech (Software Engineering or Data Science & Engineering) to earn a UGC-approved postgraduate degree without leaving your job, benefitting from weekend live classes, remote labs covering full-stack or analytics tools, and a final semester dissertation that bridges theory with organizational impact . This dual track—bootcamp plus WILP—provides immediate upskilling, peer and mentor networks, and a formal degree. After 12–18 months, if aiming for top-tier R&D or core engineering roles, commence GATE 2026 preparation via a structured three-phase roadmap: concept building (June–August), full-length practice (September–November), and final mock-test calibration (December–January), targeting a CSE rank
