Its okay if you missed jee this year you can drop year for JEE to get into a government institute like IET Lucknow to get better placement here and fees is also less in comparison with SRMU but it also means delaying a year with no guarantee success.
Joining a private college like SRMU now avoids losing a year,but it comes with higher costs and generally lower placement statistics compared to top government institutions.
ultimately Your decision should be based on your skill whether you can significantly improve your JEE score versus accepting a faster, but potentially more expensive, path to your B.Tech.
For architecture courses, you generally need to complete 10+2 with Maths as a compulsory subject. The main entrance exams are JEE Main Paper 2 and NATA (National Aptitude Test in Architecture), and you need to clear either of these for admission. Some private colleges also have their own entrance exams. The total fees usually range between 5 to 15 lakhs for the full 5-year course, depending on the college. It’s best to check the specific college website for exact eligibility and fee details.
Here's the information about Architecture course:
- Eligibility criteria: Qualification completed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry & Mathematics as compulsory subjects with minimum 50% marks. Age limit is minimum 17 and upper age limit is generally not fixed, that varies by college.
- Entrance Exam: NATA & JEE Mains are both main national level entrance exam that are expected by most of colleges for admission. There are some State exam like MHT-CET, UPSEE and many more that are also accepted by colleges.
