Ans: Amit Sir, College of Technology & Engineering (CTAE) Udaipur offers CSE with a placement rate of 70–80% and an average package around ?5–6.3 lakh, with top recruiters like TCS, Wipro, and Infosys, and a strong alumni network supporting placements and internships. CTAE’s government status ensures affordable fees (?1.96 lakh total), good infrastructure, and active entrepreneurship and research cells, though students note the need for self-initiative in skill-building as the curriculum is somewhat traditional. Rajasthan Technical University (RTU) Kota’s CSE placements are less transparent, but the overall university placement rate is about 60–65%, with an average package of ?3.75–7 lakh and top recruiters like Infosys, Microsoft, and Amazon. RTU’s CSE program benefits from experienced faculty, research labs, and a large campus, but the placement process is more centralized and less personalized, and the median salary is slightly lower than CTAE’s. Both colleges have comparable infrastructure and hostel facilities, but CTAE Udaipur’s CSE department is more established, and its placement process is considered more proactive, with better student support and a higher median salary for CSE graduates.

The recommendation is to prefer CSE at College of Technology & Engineering, Udaipur, due to its higher placement rate, stronger alumni network, more affordable fees, and better student support for internships and placements, making it a more advantageous choice for your daughter’s career prospects compared to RTU Kota. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future!

Ans: Amit, With an EWS rank of 1023 and an AIR of 1023 in the IAT exam, your chances of getting a seat in any IISER in 2025 are extremely slim. The EWS closing ranks for IISER BS-MS programs in the last two years have not exceeded 772 (Berhampur), 767 (Tirupati), 625 (Thiruvananthapuram), 525 (Bhopal), and 373 (Kolkata) in the final rounds, and the expected cutoff for 2025 remains in the 700–800 range for the least competitive campuses. Even in earlier rounds, the EWS closing ranks for all IISERs, including new campuses, have consistently stayed well below 1023, and rising competition is likely to keep cutoffs tight. Therefore, an EWS rank of 1023 does not qualify for any IISER seat in 2025. Meanwhile, HBTU Kanpur’s BS-MS in Mathematics and Data Science is a five-year integrated program with strong academic credentials, NAAC A+ accreditation, and growing placement opportunities in analytics, data science, and IT, with recent placements at TCS and other reputed companies. The course is designed for students interested in mathematics, computing, and data-driven careers, and is recognized as a good alternative for those not securing top engineering or science seats. HBTU’s placement cell is active, and the program’s interdisciplinary nature opens doors to analytics, machine learning, research, and higher studies, while also accepting JEE Main and CUET scores for admission.

The recommendation is to proceed with the BS-MS Mathematics and Data Science program at HBTU Kanpur, as IISER admission is not possible at your EWS rank, and HBTU offers a reputable, industry-aligned integrated program with good placement prospects and strong academic support. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future!

Ans: An integrated B.Sc.+M.Sc. Physics program at IIT Roorkee spans five years, admits 27 students per year, and places almost 90% of graduates through campus drives involving top tech and finance firms. The curriculum features advanced research projects, JAM exam coaching, and close faculty mentorship, opening paths in academia, R&D, and data science. Private institutes like Lovely Professional University offer physics degrees with industry tie-ups but deliver lower placement rates and fewer core research opportunities. The recommendation is to choose the IIT Roorkee dual-degree for its proven placement success, research exposure, and academic rigour, unless a lower-cost private option is essential. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future!

Ans: Both MSc MRI Technology and MSc Radiology & Imaging Technology programmes in Punjab report strong placement trends, with MRI graduates at CT University’s Ludhiana campus seeing over 700 recruiters on campus and an estimated 80% placement rate over the last three years, and Radiology & Imaging Technology postgraduates at Dayanand Medical College & Hospital, Ludhiana achieving an approximately 83% placement rate for PG students over the past three years. MRI Technology prepares specialists for focused roles in advanced scanning centres, while Radiology & Imaging Technology equips graduates across X-ray, CT, ultrasound, MRI, and interventional modalities, offering broader clinical and technical pathways. Radiology’s wider scope and slightly higher placement consistency make it the more versatile choice for long-term growth in Punjab’s healthcare sector. The recommendation is to pursue MSc Radiology & Imaging Technology for its comprehensive skill set and stronger placement performance. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future!

Ans: With a rank of 5,796 in JEE Main 2025, admission to PES University Electronic City's CSE (AI-ML) program is very unlikely through the JEE Main quota. Recent cutoff data reveals that the JEE Main closing ranks for B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering (Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning) at PES University were 3,119 for general category in 2024, while historical data shows cutoffs have ranged from 426-733 for related CSE programs. The university offers only 24 JEE Main quota seats for CSE (AI-ML) out of 480 total seats, making competition extremely intense. Even the Electronic City campus, which typically has higher cutoffs than the Ring Road campus, would require significantly better ranks for CSE programs. Current trends indicate cutoffs may increase by 5-10% due to rising competition, making your rank further from the required threshold. While the university accepts both KCET and JEE Main scores for admission, your rank falls well outside the competitive range for direct admission through JEE Main quota to this program.

The recommendation is that with a JEE Main rank of 5,796, securing CSE (AI-ML) at PES Electronic City through JEE Main quota is not feasible, but you should explore management quota options or consider alternative engineering programs at PES University or other institutions where your rank would be competitive. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future!

Ans: Sreelakshmi, In 2021, VIT introduced its five-year Integrated M.Sc. in Physics, but no batch has graduated yet, so placement readiness remains untested and uncertain. Seniors have also cited concerns over syllabus alignment gaps. At Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, the five-year Integrated M.Sc. in Physics has a three-year placement rate of approximately 60 – 70 percent, with recruiters including Infosys, Bank of Baroda and other public sector banks. Amrita achieved an overall placement rate exceeding 100 percent in 2024, with 354 offers from 115 recruiters and paid internships at Microsoft and Google that often lead to full-time roles. The program offers MSc projects at IISc, IITs and international exchange opportunities at universities such as Colorado State University. The curriculum includes dedicated research mentorship, a freed-final semester for internships and thesis, and GATE/NET exam guidance. If IIT JAM admission is not secured, Amrita’s placement cell conducts regular campus recruitment drives for M.Sc. Physics graduates, ensuring continued industry entry pathways.

The recommendation is to enrol at Amrita, whose established M.Sc. Physics program delivers robust placement outcomes, paid internships, international research exposure, a structured curriculum with thesis and exam guidance, and guaranteed campus recruitment even if IIT JAM admission is not achieved, providing a safer and more comprehensive pathway for long-term growth. All the BEST for your Prosperous Future!

Ans: Last year’s EWS?category closing ranks across IISER BS-MS dual-degree programs never exceeded about 770 in the final counselling rounds (IISER Berhampur ~700–750, Round 5 highest at 772; IISER Tirupati ~767; IISER Bhopal ~525; IISER Kolkata ~373; IISER Mohali ~343) and EWS cutoffs for BS-only streams were similarly below 300, so with an EWS rank of 2 000 and an AIR of 26 101, admission to any IISER in 2025 is not attainable. Given the limited seats and high competition, pursuing alternative science or engineering programs at central/state universities or reputed private institutes would be the pragmatic path. The recommendation is to explore other undergraduate science or engineering courses outside IISER through JEE, state CET, or university entrance exams. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: With an OBC-NCL rank of 14386, it's unlikely you'll get admission to any of the older, more established IISERs like IISER Bhopal, IISER Kolkata, or IISER Pune based on past cutoff trends. However, you may have a chance at IISERs like Tirupati, Thiruvananthapuram, or Berhampur, or newer IISERs, depending on the specific year's cutoff trends and seat availability.
