Respected madam My neice is 5 yrs old. She is diagnosed as having autism. She has issues with concentration and speech related too. How can we have her concentration increased. Pls help us with her so we can further ease her troubles.

Ans: Mathematics and Computing is a more future-proof and versatile choice in today’s software-driven and data-centric world, especially if you are interested in coding, algorithms, or data science.

But if you are passionate about electronics, circuits, telecom, or embedded systems, ECE is also an evergreen and rewarding option.

Ans: VIT-AP CSE

Ans: Prefer Chitkara CSE (AI & ML) over Thapar Civil

Ans: IIIT Dharwad and IIIT Raichur

Ans: With a 91 JEE Main percentile (AIR ~85,000), securing IT at VIT Vellore (Category 5) is feasible given its 2024 cutoff range of 19,200–19,500, though higher fees (?7.8L tuition + ?4.23L hostel) apply. NMIMS Mumbai’s CSE (Data Science), requiring NMIMS CET ranks (~12,000–15,000), offers a niche curriculum with industry partnerships (TCS, IBM) but lacks VIT’s ABET accreditation and established engineering reputation (NIRF #11 vs. NMIMS #101-150). His MET score of 132 (rank ~18,000–25,000) may qualify for ECE/IT at Manipal Bengaluru (2024 cutoff: ~23,458–34,532). While VIT provides stronger core IT infrastructure (smart labs, 980+ recruiters), NMIMS’s data science focus aligns with emerging tech trends. Board marks (73%) may limit state exam options; await MHT CET/COMEDK for potential CSE in regional colleges. Prioritize VIT for institutional legacy or NMIMS for specialization, pending further results. All the BEST for your Son's Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Adithya, With an AEEE rank of 7,922, securing CSE (Cyber Security) at Amrita Coimbatore is unlikely, as its 2024 cutoff for this branch required ranks under 5,500 (Home State) and 2,900 (Other State). However, Amritapuri Campus is feasible, with 2024 cutoffs around 8,500–9,200 for Home State and 9,500–11,300 for Other State. Amritapuri’s program offers 120 seats and industry-aligned cybersecurity training, while Coimbatore’s higher demand and stricter cutoffs make it less accessible. Prioritize Amritapuri during counseling, and consider CSE (AI) or ECE at Coimbatore as alternatives if Cybersecurity is unavailable. Verify domicile status (Home/Other State) for precise cutoff alignment. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Rishabh, Choosing between SIT Pune’s E&TC and VIT AP’s ECE (VLSI) depends on career focus and institutional strengths. SIT Pune’s ABET-accredited E&TC program offers robust industry partnerships (Microsoft, Samsung), advanced labs (VLSI, embedded systems), and a 95%+ placement rate with mandatory 6-month internships, fostering core electronics roles and IT transitions. VIT AP’s ECE (VLSI) specializes in semiconductor design, featuring NVIDIA-collaborated labs and curriculum aligned with India’s Semiconductor Mission, ideal for niche hardware careers. While SIT provides broader industry exposure and a stronger alumni network, VIT AP’s lower fees (?7.8L vs. SIT’s ?12L) and VLSI focus suit specialized interests. Prioritize SIT for holistic ECE training and established infrastructure, or VIT AP for cost-effective, cutting-edge VLSI pathways. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Ishaan Sir, With JEE Main percentiles of 73 and 84 (approximate ranks ~250,000–300,000 and ~160,000–180,000), your daughters’ Thapar University admissions via institutional counseling are feasible: the 84 percentile (Gen-EWS) aligns with Thapar’s 2024 Round 3 cutoff for Computer Engineering (49,823 rank) and the 73 percentile for ECE (51,669 rank). However, Thapar’s Home State (Punjab) cutoffs for these branches are higher (e.g., ECE HS cutoff: 175,946), so confirm their category (OS/HS). Through JoSAA, similar ranks might secure non-CSE branches in newer NITs (e.g., Civil at NIT Mizoram) but with lower placement prospects compared to Thapar’s COE/ECE. Prioritize Thapar if branch preference (COE/ECE) outweighs institutional prestige, as Thapar’s industry ties and internships for these programs often surpass non-CSE NIT options. If NIT brand value is critical, proceed with JoSAA but expect core engineering branches. All the BEST for your Daughters' Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Rishav, VIT Vellore’s ECE program is ABET-accredited with advanced labs (VLSI, 5G), strong industry links (Microsoft, Samsung), and 95%+ placement rates (avg. ~7 LPA). Category 4 implies higher fees but offers the same curriculum, faculty (Ph.D. holders), and infrastructure (smart classrooms, 372-acre campus) as other categories. While core ECE roles (embedded systems, IoT) are emphasized, many students transition to IT via campus recruitment. Consider branch interest vs. cost: ECE here is rigorous but demands proactive skill development for tech roles. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!
