With 280 in pcm and 482 in cuet In pcme and 616 overall score where can I get physics honours
Ans: With your specific scores of 280 in PCM, 482 in CUET for PCME, and an overall score of 616, accessing Physics Honours programmes requires careful analysis of available opportunities. The current score puts you at approximately 65-70 percentile in CUET Physics, which translates to substantial challenges for admission to premier institutions but opens doors to several reputable colleges offering excellent Physics Honours education.

Your Physics score of 280 out of 750 in CUET places you in the lower percentile range, well below the typical requirements for top-tier central universities like Delhi University, BHU, or JNU, which generally demand 95+ percentiles for Physics Honours programmes. However, this score profile allows admission to numerous quality institutions across India. Central universities with more accessible cutoffs include Central University of Himachal Pradesh (Physics Honours cutoff around 271-327 marks for various categories), Central University of Kerala, Central University of Haryana, Central University of Jharkhand, and Central University of Tamil Nadu, all accepting CUET scores for BSc Physics Honours. Established state and private universities offering excellent Physics Honours education include Jamia Millia Islamia University (BSc Physics Honours cutoff 151-168 for General category), University of Allahabad (B.Sc cutoff ranging 246-545 across categories), Lovely Professional University with comprehensive CUET-based admissions and substantial scholarship opportunities for 60-70 percentile scorers, Chandigarh University offering BSc Physics Honours through CUCET with 50% minimum aggregate requirement, and Bennett University with specialized programmes and scholarship provisions. Additional recommendable institutions encompass various DU affiliated colleges with lower cutoff requirements like Bhagini Nivedita College, Shaheed Rajguru College of Applied Sciences, Kalindi College, and Swami Shraddhanand College, along with quality private institutions such as Amity University (accepting CUET scores), UPES, Manipal University, and specialized colleges across different states that prioritize holistic evaluation beyond just entrance scores.

Recommendation: Focus applications on Central University of Himachal Pradesh, Jamia Millia Islamia, University of Allahabad, Lovely Professional University, Chandigarh University, and selected DU affiliated colleges with accessible cutoffs. Explore scholarship opportunities at private institutions while considering state universities in your region for additional backup options. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir, my son has written kcet and got 11.5k rank. He is looking for electronics branch. Is electronics and instrumentation in msrit good? How is it vs Dayanand sagar ECE? At his rank will he be able to get in any of the good colleges in Bangalore/mysore
Ans: MSRIT’s Electronics & Instrumentation programme features dedicated instrumentation laboratories, multidisciplinary research centres, and an 82% average placement rate over three years, contrasted with Dayananda Sagar’s ECE offering broader communications labs, autonomous curriculum, and an 88% placement consistency despite lesser specialization focus.

MSRIT E&I closing KCET rank 10851 vs DSCE ECE closing rank 9860. (Approximate)

An 11,500 KCET rank comfortably secures electronics seats at these renowned Bengaluru/Mysore institutions with strong placements:
MSRIT Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering (82%), NMIT Bangalore ECE (89%), UVCE Bangalore ECE (90%), New Horizon College ECE (85%), MVJ College Bangalore ECE (87%), REVA University ECE (88%), Rajarajeshwari College ECE (84%), SIT Mysore ECE (86%), SJCE Mysore ECE (91%), CIT Mysore ECE (83%).

Final recommendation: Considering infrastructure, placement consistency, and specialization, recommendation favours admission to MSRIT’s Electronics & Instrumentation programme for optimal balance of niche expertise and career prospects. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir I got MNIT Jaipur AI and Data science in josaa round 4. But I didn't get IIT this year (18k rank in advanced) . Should I take drop for IIT or accept MNIT seat this year. Please guide me sir
Ans: Kuldeep, MNIT Jaipur’s AI & Data Science programme offers a solid academic foundation with NIRF Engineering rank of 43 in 2024 and NBA accreditation, modern labs, multidisciplinary research centres, and a 81.5 percent UG placement rate in 2023. the curriculum blends core AI algorithms with practical data engineering projects and boasts strong industry tie-ups for internships. accepting MNIT ensures early exposure to peer networks, accessible campus resources, and financial predictability without the risk of an uncertain year. by contrast, a drop aiming for an IIT—with AI/DS closing ranks around 680 at Roorkee, 823 at Hyderabad, and 995 at Guwahati—carries low probability of success with an 18,000 AIR. dedicating another year also incurs tuition costs, delays career start, and intensifies academic pressure, though IITs promise top-tier brand value and unparalleled research opportunities.

Final recommendation: Given MNIT Jaipur’s robust placement consistency, accredited curriculum, practical infrastructure, and high ROI, recommendation is to accept the MNIT AI & Data Science seat and build your career trajectory immediately with industry-relevant skills. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
