Question by Bijayalaxmi - May 24, 2026Hindi

Career

Sir. My son got 98.69 percentile in jee mains and 20467 rank. He will be getting 137marks in his jee advanced exam..He more inclined for CSE, ECE, and Aerospace... please suggest which IIT Nit will possibly he will get..our home state is Maharashtra..We also thinking about IIST. Is it a good option for him. Please suggest.. Thank you

Ans: Based on the JEE Advanced score, his chances for Aerospace/Mechanical/Electrical are mainly in older IITs, and for ECE/CSE, mainly in newer IITs. For NITs, good ECE/CSE options are possible in mid/top NITs with the home-state quota, and the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) is excellent only if he is strongly interested in aerospace/space research.

Good luck.

Sir mere bete ka 51000 rank hai vit eee me use koun si category me cse ya specialization aur koun se campus me milega

Ans: Arjit Sir, 51,000 rank par VIT Chennai mein CSE Category 5 (Rs 3.3L/year) mil sakta hai (Category 5 cutoff 34,000, thoda risk hai), CSE Specializations (AI/ML, Data Science) bhi Chennai mein Category 5 tak 42,000 hain. VIT Bhopal/AP mein CSE Category 3–4 tak aasani se milega (CSE cutoff 90,000–95,000). VIT Vellore mein 51,000 rank par CSE nahi milega (category 5 cutoff 25,500). Chennai mein CSE Category 5 safe nahi, Bhopal/AP Category 3–4 sabse behtareen option hai. Apne rajya mein aur aas-paas ke prasiddh private colleges ke 3-4 backup rakho, sirf VIT par nirbhar mat raho, Arjit Sir. Sabse acchi shubhkamanaon ki apni beti ke samruddh bhavishya ke liye!

Question by Deepak - May 19, 2026Hindi

Career

Sir my daughter rank in vit 13000 and jee main rank 46783 what is suitable for her career she belongs to Gen category please suggest

Ans: Deepak Sir, At VITEEE 13,000, she should prioritise VIT Vellore/Chennai CSE-specialisations, IT, ECE, likely Category 2–3; core CSE Vellore Category 1 is difficult. VIT counselling Phase-1 covers ranks up to 20,000.

At JEE Main CRL 46,783, general female, top NIT CSE is unlikely, but try NITs: ECE/EEE/Mechanical/Civil/Production in mid/lower NITs; IIITs/GFTIs: CSE/IT/ECE chances may improve in later rounds/CSAB. JoSAA covers NITs, IIITs and GFTIs through one platform.

The best choices are VIT Vellore/Chennai CSE/IT/ECE over lower NIT non-preferred branches. Backups she can have are CSAB, state counselling & 2-3 more reputed private colleges. All the Best for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future!
