Q:   If I get a seat in the OJEE counselling first round and also I get a seat under JoSAA counselling, then, which should I apply for?

A:
It depends on your priorities and the colleges you have applied for. If you have applied for engineering courses and have got a seat through JoSAA counseling, then you may prefer to take that seat over the one you got through OJEE counseling. However, if you have applied for other courses like management or pharmacy and have secured a seat through OJEE counseling, then you may prefer to take that seat. In any case, it is recommended that you carefully evaluate your options and make an informed decision based on your interests, career goals, and the reputation of the colleges. You should also check the deadlines for acceptance of seats and ensure that you don't miss them. Please upvote if it was helpful.
