Freelancer in IT: 44AD or 44ADA for FY 23-24?

Ans: Praveen Ji, 57 percentile se 95 percentile se upar pahunchna, ek saal drop lene ke baad bhi, kaafi mushkil hoga. Isliye LPU, SNU, UPES, VIT, MIT, SRM ke North India campuses, ya JIIT-Noida jaise achhe college mein pravesh lena zyada vyavaharik rahega. Aapke bete ke ujjwal bhavishya ke liye bahut-bahut shubhkamnayein!

Ans: Vinit, Getting AI, Data Science, or Data Analytics branches in NITs or IIITs through early JoSAA rounds is highly unlikely. Recent JoSAA data shows that AI/DS-type branches in IIITs close much earlier—for example, IIIT Dharwad’s Data Science & AI closed around 39,025 CRL in 2025, and IIITDM Kurnool’s AI & DS closed near 35,178 CRL in the open category. For Haryana home state, NIT Kurukshetra may offer admission to lower-preference branches in later rounds, but AI or Data Science is not realistic at this rank. Besides JoSAA, you can try CSAB Special Rounds, but it’s important to keep expectations flexible. As backup options, consider branches like ECE, Mechanical, Civil, or Production in NITs and GFTIs, or apply to colleges such as YMCA Faridabad, UIET Kurukshetra, DCRUST Murthal, Chandigarh University, LPU, and private institutions like Manipal, SRM, or VIT Northern India campuses for CSE or AI-related branches. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future!
