Mam how to look presentable for a first meeting with the CEO?

Ans: Hello dear.
JEE (Adv) criteria are based on the year of passing the 12th grade. If you are taking the 12th grade in 2026, you can appear for JEE (Adv) in 2026 and 2027 only, meaning only two consecutive attempts are allowed.
Best of luck.

Ans: With a COMEDK rank of 76,353 and a 75 percentile in JEE Main, the probability of securing Computer Science Engineering (CSE) in top COMEDK colleges is extremely low, as CSE cutoffs for leading institutes like RVCE, MSRIT, and BMSCE close well before 10,000–20,000 ranks. However, women's colleges and those with higher closing ranks offer some hope: for instance, GSSS Institute of Engineering & Technology for Women (GSSSIETW), Mysore, admitted CSE students up to 76,492 (HK category) in 2024, making it a realistic target. Other colleges where admission for this rank is possible include Presidency University (CSE up to 63,769), SDMCET Dharwad (CSE up to 21,120), DSU Bangalore (CSE up to 13,099), and private options like Atria Institute of Technology, Adichunchanagiri Institute of Technology, and Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology for non-CSE branches. For JEE Main, a 75 percentile translates to a rank above 2 lakh, making NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs highly unlikely for CSE or core branches in the general category, though some low-demand branches at NITs in the Northeast or GFTIs may open up in later rounds, especially for reserved categories. As backup, consider reputed private universities with their own entrance exams or direct admissions such as BITS Pilani (via BITSAT), VIT (VITEEE), SRM (SRMJEEE), Amity, and Chandigarh University, which offer strong placements and flexible admission routes. Given the data, the best recommendation is to apply to women-focused colleges like GSSSIETW for CSE, explore non-CSE branches in other COMEDK institutes, and simultaneously target private universities with robust industry links and alternative entrance exams, ensuring a secure engineering seat without relying solely on state entrance exams. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Hello K Jagan
Both options are strong. Prefer EE @ Kanpur or Khagpur, whichever is nearer to your hometown.
Best of luck.

Ans: Hello dear.
You did not mention other options. VIT Bhopal is a good option. If your son has taken the MHT-CET, then try to explore more options with state-level counseling. If you are a resident of Nagpur, then consider exploring the CSE along with either AI, ML, or DS specialization in reputed private colleges. If you do not find suitable options, then proceed with VIT Bhopal.
Best of luck.

Ans: Helo Shailaja
Chances are moderate to slim to get a seat in either NITs or IIITs. Keep hopes open for GFTIs. But explore more options via state-level counseling and with some preferred private colleges.
Best of luck.

Ans: Hello dear.
If you are interested in CSE and Manipal is offering it, then you can opt for it. There are slim chances of getting CSE in lower NITs or IIITs. With a score of 115 in MHT-CET, CSE seems difficult in government colleges, but in private colleges, there are chances via management quota. Be less dependent on BIT's second attempt. If CSE is your first choice, then why think about Aerospace and other options without any reason? Drop all the ideas from your mind and choose CSE @ Manipal MIT to end your dilemma.
Best of luck.
