Hello ,

I hope you are absolutely fine. As per your mentioned query , yes NEET is not an easy exam to crack but it doesn't means that it is impossible. If you are consistent and disciplined towards your studies then you will definitely crack this exam. You can purchase online courses for getting the direction in your studies. It will also helps you to schedule your day productively. Yes , you can practice HC Verma and jee mains questions too as the exam is unpredictable so you never know the difficulty level of an exam.

Here i am mentioning some preparations tips , hopes it helps you :

• Before start your preparation, analyse the syllabus and mark the important chapters first.
• Complete your NCERTs first so it will make your foundation strong.
• Before practising standard books, try to practice basic level questions so it will make your basics strong.
• Then practice standard books and try to give PYQs. PYQs will give you the idea of questions coming in exam.
• Do revision weekly as it is important to revise the concepts otherwise you will forget the concepts.
• Give chapter wise mocks first then sectional mocks then full mocks.
• Take healthy diet and exercise daily so it will keep your mind fresh.

All the best!

HEY THERE!!!

Both options - Chemical Engineering from IIT Guwahati and Mechanical Engineering from IIT Hyderabad are strong choices, but they differ in academic focus, campus culture, and placement outcomes.

IIT Guwahati Chemical Engineering:

• This IIT has been around longer
• Its graduates form a strong network leading to good job offers
• Life on campus tends to be more settled

IIT Hyderabad Mechanical Engineering:

• This IIT is newer but growing fast
• It has a modern campus and teaches in new ways
• Mechanical grads earn more on average (INR 18.7 LPA), but fewer get jobs (53.7%)

1. Go for IIT Hyderabad Mechanical if you like machines and want a new-age campus.
2. Pick IIT Guwahati Chemical if you want a time-tested IIT and enjoy studying chemicals.
3. You can't go wrong with either; just think about what you want to study and where you'd like to live!

HEY THERE!!!

1. You stand a good chance of being accepted into B.Arch programs at prestigious NITs, SPAs, and other centrally funded institutions if your overall JEE Main B.Arch rank in the SC category is 3635.
2. Your score is well within the usual closing ranks for SC seats in many reputable colleges, and the SC category cutoff for JEE Main B.Arch in 2025 is approximately 61.15 percentile.
3. The opening and closing ranks of the particular institute, which can change annually, determine actual admission.
4. To increase your chances, you should fill out your choices for B.Arch colleges and take part in the JoSAA counselling process.

With a JEE Advanced rank of 20,340, your son can likely get admission in newer IITs like IIT Bhubaneswar, Gandhinagar, Ropar, Mandi, Indore, Patna, or Jodhpur, mostly in less competitive branches.

Top IITs and popular branches like CS or ECE are unlikely.

Hi Aspirant

Amity University offers admission to BTech programs through two major pathways which are the Amity Joint Entrance Exam and JEE Main score submission The rank needed in JEE Main to secure a seat in Amity depends on several key factors including the year of admission the demand for the course the campus you choose and your category status such as General OBC SC or ST

In general Amity University is known for offering flexible admission policies and also has its own entrance exam for students who may not have a competitive rank in JEE Main However for students applying through JEE Main the university does consider your rank and percentile as part of their selection process especially for popular courses like Computer Science Engineering Electronics and Communication Engineering and Information Technology

For the General category candidates a rank within the range of fifteen thousand to forty thousand in JEE Main is typically competitive for getting admission into high demand courses at the Noida campus This range is considered good enough to be eligible for merit scholarships as well The higher your rank the better your chances of securing a seat in core branches like Computer Science

For OBC category students the acceptable rank can go up to fifty thousand or slightly higher depending on the course and campus chosen Students from the SC and ST categories have additional relaxation in admission criteria and may secure admission even with a rank up to sixty five thousand or more for some branches and campuses

Students applying under the EWS category usually fall under similar consideration as the OBC group and a rank under fifty thousand may be sufficient for certain courses although more competitive branches like Computer Science still require better scores

Another important point is the availability of scholarships which is directly linked to your JEE percentile Students with ninety percentiles and above in JEE Main are often considered for tuition fee waivers ranging from twenty five to one hundred percent based on the percentile achieved The scholarship can be a major deciding factor for students and makes a strong JEE score valuable even if you are admitted without it being strictly required

Besides JEE rank students can also gain admission through their class twelve marks with an eligibility requirement of at least sixty percent aggregate in Physics Chemistry and Mathematics Some campuses and branches may require higher cutoffs depending on the demand

Amity also considers extracurricular activities and personal interviews for final admission decisions in some cases This means that even if a student's JEE rank is not very high they may still be offered a seat based on overall profile

In case you do not meet the cutoff for your desired branch in the first round it is advisable to consider applying for newer or related branches like Artificial Intelligence or Internet of Things as they usually have slightly lower cutoff ranks but are still in high demand.

Hi Aspirant

If you are a student with residential status in Puducherry and wish to pursue engineering the requirement to clear JEE Main depends on the specific college and admission process There are two main pathways into engineering colleges in Puducherry which are the state counselling system known as CENTAC and admission to national level institutes like NIT Puducherry

CENTAC counselling for Pondicherry engineering colleges
The Centralised Admission Committee or CENTAC manages admissions to state government and government aided engineering colleges in Puducherry including Pondicherry Engineering College and other institutions These seats are reserved partly for local Puducherry residents and partly for outside state students Under this system a residential student from Puducherry needs to appear for either the JEE Main exam or the local entrance exam called CET Some colleges only accept JEE Main scores while others accept both While JEE Main score is accepted it is not mandatory if you have qualified in the state CET You can choose either entrance to qualify for counselling

NIT Puducherry admissions through JoSAA counselling
Admission to NIT Puducherry is conducted through JoSAA and is based exclusively on JEE Main score This university does not accept any CET or state level exam score Regardless of your residential status to secure a BTech seat at NIT Puducherry you must appear for JEE Main and obtain a valid rank

Comparison of college requirements
• For state run and aided engineering colleges under CENTAC you may use either JEE Main score or CET score depending on the choice determined by the committee
• For NIT Puducherry and central government funded institutes JEE Main score is mandatory
• Some private colleges in Puducherry may accept either but many prefer JEE Main due to its national recognition

What your status as a resident means
• Being a resident of Puducherry gives you priority in state seat allotment under CENTAC local quota
• You will compete within the local category if applying through CET or JEE Main under CENTAC
• You will also be eligible for All India Quota seats for NIT through JEE Main

Steps for admission
1 Participate in CET counselling if you choose that route
2 Alternatively register for JEE Main and secure a rank
3 Use JEE Main rank to apply via JoSAA for NIT Puducherry or via CENTAC for state seats
4 Upload all documents during counselling including residence certificate proof of study and exam scorecards

Advantages of taking JEE Main
• It opens the pathway for NIT admission which is well funded and has strong placement records
• It also increases your chances in the state counselling particularly for high demand branches
• A valid JEE Main rank ensures you are eligible for both central and state level seats

Do you have to take both exams
No taking both is optional But if you are sure of applying to NIT or centrally administered seats you must take JEE Main If you prefer only state colleges under CENTAC and choose CET this may be enough.

Hello aspirant!

Yes, as a resident of Puducherry, including Karaikal, Mahe, Yanam, you must appear for JEE Main to get admission in government engineering institutes like NIT Puducherry, Pondicherry Engineering College also known as PEC, and other UT quota seats. These colleges admit students through the CENTAC counselling system, which requires a valid JEE Main score.

For NIT Puducherry, 50 percent of seats are reserved for home state candidates, and admission is entirely based on JEE Main rank through JoSAA. Without JEE Main, entry is not possible. Similarly, PEC and other engineering colleges in the union territory also require JEE Main followed by CENTAC counselling.

So if your goal is to study engineering in Puducherry, be sure to register for JEE Main, take the exam, and then participate in the JOSAA and CENTAC counselling processes.

Hope this helps!

Hello Hemalakshmi,

No, JEE Mains is not mandatory just because you are a resident of Pondicherry. Nevertheless, if you intend to gain admission into most engineering colleges/ Institutions across India including those in Pondicherry, you will most likely have to take and qualify in JEE Mains or any entrance tests which may be approved by the institution or college as the case may be. Certain colleges might also have their specified entrance criteria or admission by way of state-level entrance exams or management quota, but JEE Mains is the extremely primary national level engineering entrance and is thus widely used.

Hello Aspirant,

Yes, to be under Foreign Nationals DASA Counselling 2025, you must have done atleast 2 years of education abroad (outside India) within 8 years to the time of admission. This is a pre-requisite eligibility for acceptance under Foreign Nationals category.
