Hello sir this is Nishat , I passed my 12th in the year 2023 with a good percentage but however I couldn’t see it for chemistry exam. So obviously I failed in that subject so I decided to again reappear for that exam and in 2024 I gave betterment exam from my state board in the subject biology and chemistry. However I scored far better in biology than last time but (Chemistry) I don’t know maybe it’s it’s because of the issues that we have with our board. I couldn’t score good marks so even I had decided to give (Chemistry) separately and so in 2024. I again set for (Chemistry) exam under nios I and I scored 80 so now the thing is that I’ll be having two mark sheet so while applying in need I cannot possibly select the code 2 because although I already have the state board certificate but the NIOS certificate is not yet out and it will be out by end of the March sir can I possibly select the code one that is appearing or will it create problems while counselling or is there any other option please help me out sir , I’m very desperate like I have prepared for neey for the last two years and I don’t want to put my hard work into vain.

Please select code 1 without any fear. Focus more on your study. But considering your fear and anxiety with the chemistry subject, it is recommended that you choose other options than NEET. This time you appear without any fear.

Ans: Hello.
Depending on his score, it is difficult to get admission to premier institutions like NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs but several reputable private engineering colleges accept students with lower JEE Main scores. Please locate the reputed private college nearby you or in your state or if your financial position is sound, you can keep the options open to pan India. Some of the options are (1) Heritage Institute of Technology, Techno India University, Institute of Engineering and Management (IEM) (Kolkata) (2) Anurag University, AAR Mahaveer Engineering College (Hyd) (3) Bangalore Institute of Technology, R.V.

Should I pursue data science after 12th standard. Will it be of lesser use due to AI

Ans: Hi, It would be better to complete a science degree first. After finishing your science degree, consider pursuing a data science course as an additional qualification while enrolled in your postgraduate studies. Data science alone may not be sufficient for your career.
