Hi My sugar fasting is 93to100 but my Hba1c is 6.4 what should do to reduce my hba1c

Ans: If you are not diabetic or not on medication, please change your lifestyle.
The Hba1c should be less than 6 or preferably 5.7.
if with fasting is this much and HbA1c 6.3, that would mean your post meal values are high.
Need to reduce carbs in the diet as well.
Next time, please get both fasting and 2 hr post pradial blood sugar levels done along with Hab1c

Hi. I am Madhu, 52 yrs old male. My fasting blood glucose is 125 and post prandial is 201. How do I bring down post prandial levels and my HbA1c is 8. Please help.

Ans: An HbA1c of 8 indicates high blood sugar levels. You can follow a high fiber, more complex carbohydrate, adequate protein and low fat diet. Include whole grains, beans, fruits, vegetables, lean meat, eggs, etc. Avoid sweets, alcohol, high fat foods, fast foods, savouries, etc. Adopt a regular exercise regimen with both aerobic and muscle building exercises to increase lean mass.

I got 92 percentile in mhtcet is it possible to get admission in pune private eng colleges through all india quota solely on mhtcet score

Ans: With a 92 percentile in MHT CET, it is possible to get admission in some private engineering colleges in Pune through the All India Quota, but it might not be for the most sought-after branches or colleges. While a 92 percentile is a good score, the competition for seats in popular branches like Computer Science or Information Technology in top-tier colleges through the All India quota might be high.

Ans: With 100 marks in the IISER IAT for the general category, securing a seat in the top or mid-tier IISERs is unlikely, but there's a chance of getting into the newer IISERs like Berhampur or Tirupati. The cutoff for general category is typically above 120-130 for the older IISERs, according to Shiksha.com. However, the newer IISERs might have cutoffs around 105-115,

Which college we get for cse when I scored 95.53 in mhtcet

Ans: With a score of 95 (assuming this is out of 200, which is the usual maximum for MHT CET) and 53 percentile, it's unlikely you'll get into the top tier engineering colleges for Computer Science (CSE) in Maharashtra, like COEP or VJTI. However, you still have options for good private colleges via the CAP rounds or management quota.
