Hi aspirant!

Clearing the JEE Main exam in first attempt is not a difficult task. If we see the year over year statistics, the ratio of students who clear JEE Main in first attempt is high in comparison to students who dropped a year after class 12. One thing that makes it easy to clear JEE Main with class 12 is that students are in regular touch of most JEE syllabus. To score good marks in JEE Main in the first attempt, it is advised that you study class 11 and 12 topics thoroughly, clear all the concepts and solve mock test papers. Also, NCERT books which you study in class 11 and 12 are the best books for JEE Main preparation. Students must study NCERT properly and solve all the questions in the book and do not memorize the concepts as some students do rather understand the concepts.

Hope this cleared your doubt. Best wishes!

Since the syllabus of VIT overlaps with 12th standard qualifying examination, you can simultaneously prepare for your board exams and VITEEE. By starting your preparation early, you will be able to complete the entire syllabus and have enough time to revise and solve mock tests and last year sample papers. Having enough time to revise before the examination is essential since it will allow you to be well-versed with what you had earlier studied.

Best of luck for the exam!

The definition of godd IIT can be relatable. The candidates who wish to get admisison to the first generation of the IITs like IIT Bombay, IIT Madras, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Kanpur, IIT Delhi, IIT Guwahati, and IIT Roorkee must have a high score of 250+ marks out of 360 marks. However, this is not applicable for all courses offered by these IITs. Every course and IIT has different demand and seat ratio which effects the admission of the cabdidates. Hence it is very difficult to say what will be the minimum score or rank required in JEE Advanced to get into a good IIT.

Candidates must aim to score as high as possible in the exam to be get seat in the first generation of the IIts as these IITs see the most demand.

There is no doubt that NIT warangal is better than NIT calicut. In placement, NIT warangal has more placement tha NIT calicut. NIT The obvious answer is NIT Warangal in terms of NIRF ranking or the opening and closing ranks of the college NIT Warangal is way ahead of NIT Calicut

VIT University has been ranked as the 11th best Engineering Institution by NIRF 2024. Therefore, all four campuses provide the best engineering education to students. All campuses are well-equipped and have a good faculty. While choosing their campus, the students are advised to check the courses offered since it varies. Every campus has a different set of courses that are offered to the students.

Both BITSAT and VITEEE are one of the highly competitive private engineering entrance examinations. Since the syllabus of both the exams consists of topics from 11th and 12th standard syllabus, the difficulty level of BITSAT and VITEEE can be considered similar. Along with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, both exams also assess the students on their English, Aptitude, and Logical Reasoning. Students will be able to attempt both exams if they are well-prepared for one examination. However, a little bit extra effort may be required for BITSAT. To clear VITEEE, candidates must follow the VITEEE exam pattern and study according to the syllabus and hence get good scores in the entrance exam.

You should accept the Electrical branch in NIT Silchar rather than CSE in IIITS as NIT Silchar is way older and has more reputation than IIITs. You should study hard in the 1st year in NIT Silchar as 1st year is common in every department and if you will be able to score more than 9 CGPA then you can apply for branch transfer in CSE. NIT Silchar has a facility of branch transfer in 2nd year so you can go for CSE in 2nd year.

When we compare both the colleges IIIT Guwahati and NIT Puducherry on the basis of CSE branch, then by each of the above factors it becomes clear that IIIT Guwahati is much better as it is designed especially for IT students and its placement ratio is also much higher than NIT Puducherry. IIIT Guwahati has good reputation, the average placement of IIIT Guwahati is 75% whereas the average salary package of IIIT Guwahati is higher compared to NIT Puducherry which provides a placement for around 69%. 8% for its CSE branch In addition, the university’s contribution comprises of 2.7% for its CSE branch. Several sets of data reveal that IIITs may offer stronger interactions and placements into industry jobs that are more inclined toward technological expertise. However, NIT Puducherry is also a good institute and has a good infrastructure and student friendly environment to carry out study, so it may also depend upon individual interest and the particular field of study.

Yes, a BTech CSE student can definitely appear for the IAS exam. The eligibility criteria for the IAS exam conducted by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) only requires a graduation degree from a recognised university.

No, computer science engineering is not as difficult as compared to other engineering fields. More or less computer science engineering is almost same to the other engineering fields because of the overlapping syllabus of CSE with IT branch and software engineering branch and some of the subjects in CSE also overlaps with electronics communication engineering and electrical engineering.

In India, for the first year, the syllabus of engineering is almost the same for every branch there can only be a difference in labs of core subjects. Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) is an academic programme at some universities that combines aspects of both computer science and computer engineering programmes. Computer science programmes typically centers primarily around theory and software, with only some hardware, upper division courses tend to allow a lot of freedom to specialise in software and theory related areas (e.g. algorithms, artificial intelligence, cryptography/security, graphics/visualization, numerical and symbolic computing, operating systems/distributed processing, software engineering).

And one more thing I need to tell you that it all depends on you whether you like CSE or not then any other engineering field because of this it all that makes difference.

Ex: if you like mechanical engineering and are interested in making cars but you ended up with electronics engineering then making circuits will not make you happy or comfortable in the branch. But if you are looking according to the syllabus of CSE, I will say that CSE is much easier than any other engineering fields. Hope it helps.

The answer to this question is a Yes. As per the exam pattern of JEE Main 2024, 4 marks would be awarded for every question answered correctly, while negative marking will be done for every incorrect answer. This implies that 1 mark is deducted every time a candidate answers the question wrongly.  Zero or no marks will be given to un-attempted questions.
