Hi Anu, Please keep this anonymous.
I'm a 26-year-old female working in a well-paying corporate job for past 3 years now.
This is my first job since college and I'm feeling very saturated and burned out in this job.
My work profile here is quite distinct and I've tried switching to other companies but have been receiving either rejections or no response from them.
I feel so tired and demotivated with the work that it's affecting my performance.
Owing to unhealthy lifestyle and lack of work life balance I got diagnosed with PCOS.
I'm very much interested in psychology and feel like switching my career to another track altogether.
My family is supportive but I don't know where I am headed from a career point of view.
I have been contemplating putting down my papers for months now but I feel so aimless, lost and confused. Could you please guide and advise me?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Ans: Hello dear.
It is a good college. However, you may find equivalent private colleges in Maharashtra as well. It is not recommended to shift to learn IT so far away from your hometown. If possible, explore similar options nearby your city with reputed private colleges to avoid potential issues related to distance.

Good luck.

Ans: Jayanandan, Each institute combines strong accreditation, experienced faculty, updated laboratories, industry-linked internships and dedicated placement cells. NIT Manipur’s Electrical Engineering recorded a 90% placement rate in 2023 with high IT-sector recruiter engagement despite fewer core roles and offers broad power-electronics and renewable-systems exposure. NIT Raipur’s Metallurgical Engineering saw an 80.39% placement rate in 2024, with average packages of ?13.75 LPA, while Biomedical Engineering lagged at ~30–40% but offers collaboration with AIIMS for healthcare R&D. IIEST Shibpur’s Mining and Metallurgy programs achieved near-100% placements over four years, average packages of ?7–12 LPA, and recruit from leading public and private mining firms through legacy ties. NIT Srinagar’s Chemical Engineering led with a 104.29% placement rate, average package ?10.48 LPA, and 100% Metallurgy placements under a stable curriculum and strong PSU recruiter network. NIT Agartala’s Biotechnology & Biochemical Engineering achieved ~81% placement consistency and ?7 LPA median package, supported by biotechnology research labs and growing MoUs, while Chemical Engineering posted ~78% placements with ?8.52 LPA average. NIT Rourkela’s Life Sciences branch placed ~90% of its M.Sc. cohort at an average ?6.10 LPA, benefiting from DBT-sponsored projects and strong research orientation.

For the best blend of placement reliability, core-sector pedigree, and future scope, the recommendation is IIEST Shibpur Mining Engineering (if your health permits). Next in preference is NIT Srinagar Chemical Engineering, followed by NIT Manipur Electrical Engineering. Subsequent options are NIT Rourkela Life Sciences, NIT Raipur Metallurgical Engineering, and NIT Agartala Biotechnology & Biochemical Engineering to align with research and industry priorities. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Both Amrita Amritapuri and CUSAT (School of Engineering) offer strong EEE programs, but they cater to slightly different preferences. Amrita Amritapuri is known for its strong academic rigor and research focus, while CUSAT may offer a more balanced campus life with a wider range of extracurricular activities. Placements are generally good at both institutions, with Amrita Amritapuri potentially having a slight edge in terms of average salary and higher packages, but CUSAT also boasts reputable placements. Ultimately, the "best" choice depends on individual priorities and preferences.
