Councelling Puzzle: JEE ADVANCED or JEE MAIN or BITSAT? Which one to go for?

Hello friends 
I first wrote this article about three years back but It needed some changes as per the chnaging pattern. So here is the updated article for you:

In few days all results of engineering entrance examinations will come out and after that
You all will get confused and tensed over which college to go , which branch to opt dilema.
So here's some help from my side to decide a better future for you.
There's always a tradeoff between the department and the college.
I will suggest you to prefer college over department,if the difference isn't very great (say Chemical in good one and Mechanical in other one).But prefer the department in case gap is quite large(say Computer Science in IIT hyderabad and Metallurgy in IIT Bombay). I know some might differ from this opinion.

The confusion b/w whether to go through IIT or NIT or IIIT or BITSAT

Well if you are getting a good Department in BITS Pilani (say score more than 350 in BITSAT and JEE rank more than 3500) go for the BITS.Similarly if you can get Computer Science or Electronics in top 5 NIT's go for the NIT's or IIIT Hyderabad.



WELL TO SUMMARIZE ALL:


If you are getting

JEE ADVANCEDrank 1-2500 : You have plenty of good options to go for. Try on getting the better IIT(it really feels surprising to write better IIT as all seven one(older) are the gems of our nation).
JEE rADVANCEDank 2500-5000: I will suggest look for a better department in BHU/Guwahati/Roorkee or the new IIT's. ISM is also a good option till 6000 odd AIR.
JEE ADVANCED rank above 4500 and JEE MAIN rank below 10000 or BITSAT score above 330 - Refer to my advice given above regarding this

JEE MAIN: Rank 1-5000 Go for IIIT hyderabad or top 5 NITS Comp Sc or ECE
RANK 5000-15000- NIT's, IIIT's Allahabad , and Gwalior or may be IIIT BANGALORE/ LNMIIT(Seperate form has to be filled for it. )

Rank 15k-25k. Hope for civil or metallurgy in any NIT. Also fill form of NIRMA Ahmedabad and TIET Patiala. 

For rest of you there are choices like MITS laxmangarah(Girls only), KIIT bhubaneshwar, MGERI Chennai.


Also you can seek admission in some good colleges availble through SLEEE like RPET.
Anyone with BITSAT score above 300 can opt for M.Sc courses in BITS Pilani as they are good.

      You wrote BHU be behind others , is it means that it is behind other newest IIT too?

      @Anonymous - For your reference. BHU CS avg last year was 19 LPA and highest was 1.46 Cr by Facebook. None less than 10 in whole class.

      Now even for Math and Computing, avg is 18+. So maximum is pretty high.

      There are many branches which had higher than 15 so where did you get your information. Please check BHU counselling blog to see each branch details.

    I respect your expertise but I would like to make a point.i cleared jee last year with a rank 3k and bits score 330 and took biotech at iit delhi.you always seem to be against biotech, te xtile, metallurgy etc in iit delhi and bombay.but if you look at placement in consultancy firms in these firms its pretty good.plus u have an extra option of research from foreign univ.ur opinion of prefering cse everytime according to me is not fully justified.merely taking cse in a not so good institute is never a good option.u need to have aptitude for cse .only if ur intelligent that is given wen u get a good rank in jee only den u can succeed in cse.else less known branches in iit delhi and bombay are always better.i myself know had I taken cse anywhere I wud nt have succeeded m

    1. I respect your opinion but to understand my point just compare the median salary or salary offered to an average student. Exceptional students do exceptional in any field you will get the logic.And consultancy options are available to all streams talk about what core jobs have in the store.

      Delete
    2. Anonymous12:03 AM

      Consultancy option are available to all streams but to some institutes like iit delhi and bombay etc.there is a huge difference in number of consultancy companies visiting the campus of iit delhi and even iit kharagpur.no good good student eg in chemical bbranch would like to spendhis entire life working in a oil company located in remote area under unfavourable conditions.if salary is only case that for mining in iit roorkee, reo tinto give 25-30 lakhs, petroleum in ism dhanbad get good package etc but look at how many student opt to work in these.companies.mechanical core have seen a declining trend in iit delhi with average arnd 8-9 lakhs for good students.plus bombay and delhi give many other scopes as well which can be discovered once in these institutes only

      Delete
    3. I agree with your fact but I always feel consultancy as an alternate job and may be icing on cake but being a technocrat from top most institue of country I feel someone good in core competency must first think of a core option not consultancy first. I am very much against this thought of Toppers who can make significant addition to existing technology working for a Bank. People say money is the foremost factor in mind and hence I advise CS as it offers same even better packages working in a technical company as the consultancy firms will do.

    Plus iit delhi or bombay provide you lot other option of nearby coaching for ias, mba etc besides having lot of consutancy companies.so ideally lloking at overall and placement perspective one shud go for iit delhi, bombay, madras kanpur not heeding much to bramch..if genuinely interested in cse go to bits or any new iit
