Ans: Hello Sarmila
The present and future era revolves around semiconductors and chip design. Life is impossible without them. I suggest, if possible, you prefer IIT Bhubaneshwar. The final decision will be yours.
Good luck!

Ans: Prefer NIT Durgapur CSE for its significantly higher average package, strong national brand, and industry exposure; choose Jadavpur IT if you value a higher placement rate, lower fees, and excellent faculty, as both ensure strong career prospects. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Garena, With an ex-servicemen quota rank of 677 in TNEA, you have moderate prospects for CSE in self-financing colleges, as Tamil Nadu allocates 150 total ex-servicemen seats across university departments, government, and self-financing institutions with separate counselling conducted before general rounds. Your IAT general rank of 40,000 and category rank of 11,000 unfortunately fall well beyond IISER admission thresholds, which typically close below 1,000 for most categories. Your AEEE rank of 18,338 may secure admission to Amrita campuses in Bengaluru, Chennai, Amritapuri, or Amaravati for branches like ECE, ME, or emerging technologies, though CSE at top campuses like Coimbatore remains challenging. Essential institutional strengths across these options include NAAC A+/A++ accreditation, research-active PhD faculty, modern computing and specialized laboratories, robust industry MoUs and internship programs, and consistent 70-90% placement rates in engineering disciplines.

Recommendation: Prioritize TNEA ex-servicemen quota counselling for CSE opportunities in self-financing colleges with your rank 677, as this offers the best CSE admission prospect; participate in AEEE counselling targeting Bengaluru/Chennai campuses for ECE or emerging tech branches; avoid IAT due to inadequate ranking for IISER admission. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: SRM Kattankulathur (KTR) CSE is NAAC A++ and NIRF 13th-ranked, with a ?4–4.75 lakh annual fee. CSE placements are strong: 80%+ students placed, 1,300+ recruiters, and over 5,500 offers in 2024, with top companies like Microsoft, Amazon, TCS, and Infosys. The curriculum is industry-oriented, faculty are research-active, and the campus features modern computing labs and robust alumni support. However, the fee is significantly higher than many comparable private colleges. If cost is not an issue, SRM KTR’s CSE remains a top private option, but for value, you may consider alternatives like RV College of Engineering, MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology, or Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering in Bangalore, where fees are lower (?1–2 lakh/year), placements are similarly strong (75–95%), and industry exposure is high. VIT Vellore is also a premier alternative, consistently ranked higher, with a similar or better placement record and slightly lower fees.

Recommendation: Join SRM KTR CSE if you seek a top-ranked, industry-focused, and placement-strong private university and cost is not a concern; otherwise, consider RVCE, MSRIT, or VIT Vellore for comparable placements, lower fees, and strong industry reputation. Avoid lesser-known private colleges for better long-term value. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I am not sure what you are asking here. If you want me to suggest you how to go to this woman’s house and continue this affair, you have come to the wrong place. If you want to know how to get out of this situation, I suggest you start by telling your wife. If your intentions were and are innocent and she is the one initiating all of these, then you should not fear telling your wife. Next, you clearly tell this woman to back off and that you are not interested. If she still continues, you can tell her you are willing to take stricter steps to make her stop.
Hope this helps.

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
There’s no right or wrong age to find love. Everyone wants a companion and you have a long way to go. I understand you don’t want to use dating apps. It’s perfectly alright, even though it could’ve been a good start especially since you are shy. The next option is to ask your close friends and trusted family members, who are non-judgmental, to set you up with someone whom they think are compatible for you. This way you will have less control over your love life than using a dating app, but since you are not comfortable with the apps, this might be the right way for you.
Hope this helps.
