Hello Doctor, My daughter is 17 years old. For the last 1 month she was suffering from a regular pain in her left waist area. We showed it to the local doctor, and then got some tests done as well. Few minor kidney stones were found in the USG examination report. The doctor recommended some medicines to us. It's been 15 days since eating this and its finished. The pain is not regular now but it happens in between. What do you recommend in this position now? Is there any good medicine by which the stone can come out after melting quickly. Plz suggest.

Ans: With a MET rank of 21,500, securing CSE at MIT Manipal (main campus) or MIT Bangalore is unlikely, as their 2024 CSE cutoffs closed at 1,633 and 5,141–5,687 respectively. However, Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology (SMIT) offers CSE with a 2024 cutoff of 46,768, making it accessible. Alternatively, consider IT, Data Science, or ECE at MIT Manipal (cutoffs ~5,148–28,284). Prioritize SMIT for CSE or explore non-CSE branches at main campuses if branch flexibility aligns with career goals. All the BEST for your Son's Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Hello Neetu
You did not specify your expected CUET score or your preferred area of study. You can secure admission at Christ University while being aware of the terms regarding admission cancellation and fee refunds. Clearly communicate that you are awaiting your CUET results, and if you are accepted into your desired course through CUET, you will proceed to cancel your admission. If the fee loss is minimal, this approach of admission and subsequent cancellation at Christ can be a viable option.
Best of luck to you.

Ans: Choosing between VIT Bhopal CSE AIML (Category 1), IILM CSE AIML with IBM, and LPU AIML hinges on balancing academic rigor, industry partnerships, and placement reliability. VIT Bhopal offers 90% placements for CSE AIML, supported by a robust curriculum aligned with AI/ML trends and access to 850+ recruiters like Microsoft, Amazon, and Cisco, ensuring consistent opportunities in core tech roles. Its Category 1 admission guarantees priority in placements and internships. IILM’s IBM-integrated program provides IBM-certified training, specialized projects, and 85–95% placements with firms like Deloitte and KPMG, but its higher fees (~?9.36L) and newer AI/ML ecosystem may limit niche role access compared to VIT. LPU AIML reports 70–80% placements with IT-sector recruitment (TCS, Infosys) but lacks focused AI/ML training and corporate engagement depth. While IILM’s IBM collaboration enhances skill relevance, VIT Bhopal’s established infrastructure, lower fees (~?7.92L), and higher placement traction make it preferable for students prioritizing industry-ready training and diverse tech opportunities. Opt for IILM only if IBM certifications and interdisciplinary projects are critical, and consider LPU as a budget-friendly alternative with moderate outcomes. All the BEST for your Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Hi,

A corpus of 3.40 crores is a large enough amount for planning a retirement. If you invest wisely and keep your expenses within a limit then you can comfortably live till age of 80 years.

Assuming an inflation of 6% on your expenses and a 12% return for the corpus investment, you can withdraw 1.5 lakh per month for expenses and still have some corpus at the end. If expenses are much higher then you may be short, if they are much less, then you will have a good corpus at the end.

So it will depend on your expenses each month.

Thanks & Regards

Ans: Hello dear
Chances are very slim to get CSE/ECE at reputed institutes via the COMEDK counseling process. Please try in private colleges via management quota.
Best of luck to you.

Ans: Hello dear
Given that you have already taken a drop once, your current score of 401 on your second attempt significantly reduces your chances of securing a seat in MBBS at GMC. If you have an interest in pursuing B.Tech in Bioinformatics, this could be a viable alternative for you. It is advisable to abandon the notion of a partial drop for NEET preparation, as excelling in this highly competitive exam requires an all-encompassing commitment. The vast syllabus demands not just time but also focused effort, which is difficult to achieve with a partial drop. You are likely aware of the extensive material that needs to be mastered, and attempting to juggle this with other commitments may hinder your performance. Therefore, it would be more beneficial to either commit to a full drop to dedicate yourself entirely to NEET preparation or to reconsider the path of a partial drop altogether.
Best of luck to you.
