Question by Amit - May 19, 2023Hindi

Health

Kind attention Rediff Gurus : My 2 year old son clearly speaks Mummy and Papa but struggles to talk/utter other things. We are also not able to understand what exactly he wants and then he starts crying badly. Does he need any medical attention. My elder son started talking when he was just 1.5 years old. Kindly suggest

Ans: When the language does not develop in time,the child develops other alternative ways to communicate.
Since the child has a behaviour of crying to get the things, it is a clear indication that child s behaviour is unknowingly getting reinforced by providing the desired items. Start with the labelling of things by giving him appropriate words so that he understands that he can use the words instead of crying.
Also monitor how much screen time is being given to him.
Development of language happens only when the child has the pre-requisites , check that too.

My grand son is now 5 Yes. old. He is healthy and active but he does not speak. Though he has no hearing problem but does not respond when we try to alert him. He is taken to a place in Goregaon for more than 6 months for speech therapy but there is no distinct progress towards his speaking skill. We need the advice & opinion of an expert in this matter so that he may start speaking and communicate with others. We are much worried about his schooling which is getting delayed. My question to expert is to find a suitable speech therapist for my child who may be helpful in this regard. Thanks.

Ans: You can visit a hospital and consult a developmental pediatrician for further testing

Health

hello Ma'am/Sir, we are based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. I have a 2 years 4 months old son who doesnt speak anything except mama, baba, dada, bhai, didi etc... I am seeing a speech and swallow speacialist in Riyadh for last 4 months but no improvements. the advised us to speak with him in only one language, so we speak only hindi. on last visit the dr. asked us to see a speech therapist but hte problem is there are no speech therapist of hindi language in Riyadh. his hearing test was done which was fine, the boy is active, healthy and takes instruction but just vant speak. please advise what shall I do.

Ans: No screen time for him. Read stories to him. Put up charts of words with pictures and read out a word everyday till he learns that and then move to the next word. When he points to something, say the word and encourage him to speak the word.
Try to have online consultation with speech therapist based in India who you can visit when you come here

I got 70.56 percentile in jee mains, sc category female from west bengal. My general rank is 474900 and category rank is 34291. Can I get any nit or gfti, if yes which college and which branch?

Ans: Based on your score, your chances in regular JoSAA for NIT/IIIT are very low. For the West Bengal home state, NIT Durgapur SC cutoffs are usually far below 34,291 for B.Tech branches; even lower branches are difficult. However, still register for JoSAA + CSAB Special Round, because CSAB fills vacant seats after JoSAA. Your possible long-shot options may be GFTIs or very low-demand branches if seats remain vacant, but do not depend on them. It is better to have the following backups: Techno Main Salt Lake, Heritage Institute of Technology, IEM Kolkata, BP Poddar, Narula Institute, Haldia Institute of Technology, Adamas University, Brainware University, and Sister Nivedita University. Also try the WBJEE counselling/management quota for CSE/IT/ECE, only if affordable for your parents. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

Sir my child got 73 percentile in JEE main what should I do, means which college is the best for

Ans: Anil Sir, with 73 percentile, NITs/IIITs/GFTIs are tough even for lower branches. Still, your child can participate in JoSAA/CSAB Rounds. Shortlist 6-7 reputed private colleges in/near your state for admission. Also suggest your child take a Psychometric Test to identify suitable career options and choose your child's interested/passionate domain. All the BEST for Your Child's Prosperous Future!

Career

Hello I got 85 percentile in jee. Female general home state - assam (i think I'd have to choose private colleges) Which colleges can I look for btech cse

Ans: Twinkle, At 85 percentile, your likely CRL may be around 2 lakh+, so NIT Silchar CSE/IT/ECE is unlikely. You may still fill JoSAA/CSAB for lower branches or GFTIs, but for B.Tech CSE, private options are more realistic. In/around Assam, prefer Assam Don Bosco University, Assam Downtown University, Girijananda Chowdhury University, and Kaziranga University, as all list B.Tech CSE officially. Also consider nearby UEM Kolkata, Techno India University, Adamas University, and Brainware University. Apply broadly, comparing fees, placement reports, coding culture, internships, hostel safety, and location before final admission. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!

My son is expecting about 90 score in kcet and 80% PCM He wants to join ECE in a good college in bangalore . Is there any chance of getting seat ? If not we are looking for management seat in bangalore or in Tamilnadu. Which state is better for his stidies, exposure and placements?

Ans: For MQ seats, choose Bengaluru colleges over TN state ones. Note: Top 2 colleges in Bengaluru have high capitation fees. Keep backups like Dayanand Sagar, NITTE Meenakshi, SJCE Mysore, RUAS, Sapthagiri NPS etc. As far as KCET is concerned, yes, there is a fair chance for ECE in Bangalore, but not in top colleges like RVCE, PES RR, MSRIT or BMSCE, where ECE usually closes much earlier. KEA 2024 cutoffs show ECE seats extending in Bangalore colleges beyond top-tier options in later rounds. Your son can target MVJ, CMRIT, BNMIT, DSATM, BIT, Global Academy, RNSIT, and keep ET/EEE as backup. All the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!

Career

Hi, My son has scored 36600 CRL in JEE Mains 2026 (General, Delhi Home state). Please advise which option is better from better placements if he want to pursue Computer Science - Thapar or IIIT Agartala or IIIT Ranchi?

Ans: Krishan Sir, CSE at IIIT Ranchi is borderline/possible, while IIIT Agartala CSE looks safer. For placements and the overall CS ecosystem, the order of preference can be 1) Thapar CSE/COE, because it has a larger alumni base, strong industry reach, better campus life and an official CSE department placement average around ?14 LPA. 2) IIIT Ranchi CSE/CS-AI, good government IIIT tag but newer, and campus ecosystem is still developing. 3) IIIT Agartala CSE, safer admission chance, decent recruiters, but location and smaller batch exposure are limitations. It is advisable to have the following backups: JAC Delhi spot rounds, Thapar, LNMIIT, Jaypee Noida, MAIT/MSIT, and CSAB newer IIITs/GFTIs. All the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future!

Ans: You have realistic chances for ECE in newer/lower NITs and several IIITs (especially via later rounds/CSAB). Target IIIT ECE as a strong option and keep some NITs as aspirational.

Good luck.
