Ans: Disha, With a General (All-India) JEE-Main rank of around 100,000, admission to core branches like CSE or ECE at any NIT through CSAB-Special is out of reach, as even the lowest closing ranks for CSE in low-tier NITs (e.g., Nagaland’s 50,509–106,408 or Mizoram’s 47,057–49,385) and for ECE (e.g., Manipur’s 42,695 or Mizoram’s 58,470–65,243) are well below your rank. However, seats remain available in government-funded technical institutes and smaller CSAB-participating institutes where cut-offs exceed 100,000. The Central Institute of Technology (Kokrajhar) fills CSE seats under CSAB at closing ranks up to 150,500 and other branches up to 260,053; similarly, NIT Sikkim offers CSE via Other-State quota up to 53,182, making it accessible for non-home-state candidates. Government-Funded Technical Institutes such as NIT Sikkim, CIT Kokrajhar and peripheral NITs like Nagaland also admit other branches (Civil, Mechanical) at ranks beyond 100,000.

Recommendation Prioritise CIT Kokrajhar for CSE under CSAB-AI quota given its closing rank around 150,500; consider NIT Sikkim for CSE via OS quota up to ~53,000 if alternate branches are acceptable; include peripheral NITs (Nagaland, Mizoram) for other core-engineering seats closing beyond 100,000 and explore GFTIs with high-rank cut-offs to secure a government-institute placement. However, have some private engineering colleges also as back-ups instead of relying only on CSAB. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Praveen Sir, With a JEE Main CRL of 29,970, securing admission through CSAB-Special rounds is highly feasible, though core branches like CSE at top NITs remain beyond reach. General-category CSAB cutoffs in 2024 demonstrate that several mid-tier NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs closed well above your rank, ensuring viable options. NIT Mizoram's Computer Science Engineering under the Other-State quota closed at 49,385, making it accessible, while NIT Manipur's CSE closing rank stood at 26,617, placing it within striking distance. Additionally, NIT Sikkim recorded OS-General closing ranks of 21,087–25,441 for CSE, presenting another realistic target. Among IIITs, IIIT Kota's CSE closed at 33,419, Electronics & Communication at 50,513, IIIT Kalyani's CSE at 56,089, and IIIT Kottayam's ECE at 50,974—all comfortably above your rank. Government-funded technical institutes also provide strong alternatives: PEC Chandigarh's CSE closed at 13,754, BIT Mesra's CSE at 22,317, and Sant Longowal Institute of Engineering and Technology (SLIET) maintains cutoffs around 51,942–87,172.

Ans: Amity University Jaipur CSE is good

Ans: I do not think the placements for MBA course out there would be on par with placements in any good MBA college. The course looks good but since it is a new course can't say about the placements. It is always good to do Engineering and then try to get into some of the top colleges for MBA

Ans: Freelance consultancy could be a good option. Another option would be teaching - which could be in an institute or creating online modules and selling on different platforms.

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I am sorry that you have to continue feeling this way, even after the breakup. But it is more common than you know. Break up is not equal to forgetting the person or stopping to feel for them entirely. Moving on takes time for some, especially when you keep seeing him time and again. I suggest you allow yourself to feel these things but at the same time allow yourself to feel for someone new. If you force yourself to stop feeling, it will push through nevertheless. Once you find a connection good enough to care for, you will organically forget about your ex.
And yes, it can be this hard after a breakup for many people. Healing is not linear.
Hope this helps.
