All the best!

Hello Devansh,  With your VITEEE rank close to 42,000, it is very much possible for you to get CSE in VIT Vellore (CAT 1 or CAT 2) and possible for VIT AP contingent on the opening ranks for that year. CSE in VIT Vellore is very competitive, especially CAT 1, so it is more realistic to get a stream instead. VIT AP is growing, with areas of opportunity and growing, and better infrastructure than what was in the beginning. If you get CSE there as I indicated, the same thought process indicates that it is worth consideration.

Many students say to avoid VIT Bhopal due to it being new (less facilities) and less industry connections. It also does not compare, facility-wise and industry-wise, to VIT Vellore and VIT AP. However, getting CSE is most important and if everything else fails, braking VIT Bhopal is possible. My suggestion would be VIT Vellore (CAT 1 or CAT 2) if you got to sit for CSE or relevant stream. Otherwise, VIT AP is a strong second option. Avoid VIT Bhopal if you have better options.

Best of luck!

With 63% in 12th and 84 percentile in JEE Mains, and belonging to the BC-B category, you have a fair chance to get admission in some good government or private engineering colleges. Your JEE percentile is good, so you can try NITs with lower cutoffs or good state-level colleges in your category. Also, private colleges like VIT, SRM, or other reputed institutes are good options. Participate in counseling carefully and choose branches and colleges based on your rank and category for better chances.

Yes you can obtain the notes for all sections of cat 2025 exam.  Many coaching centers and online platforms offer structured study materials, including notes, that cover Quantitative Aptitude (QA), Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension (VARC), and Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning (DILR).

While using the readily available notes you should also create your own notes based on you understanding of topics and practice questions.

With a 60 percentile in CAT, your son may have limited options for top-tier MBA programs, but there are still several good colleges offering residential MBA programs. Some institutes that may accept this percentile range include UPES Dehradun, IBS Hyderabad, Woxsen University, ITM Business School, and Vignana Jyothi Institute of Management. These colleges may offer opportunities with a focus on industry-oriented learning. It’s also worth exploring state universities and institutions that accept other entrance exams like MAT or XAT.

With a rank of 33,000 in the VITEEE 2025 exam:

You can get:

VIT-AP (Amaravati) – Category 1 or 2 for most branches including CSE (except CSE specializations might need Cat 2).

VIT-Bhopal – Easily Category 1 for all branches including CSE and its specializations.

Both campuses have relatively lower cutoffs than VIT Vellore or Chennai, so 33,000 rank is considered good for AP or Bhopal campus.

VIT Bhopal – CSE (Cat 1): Lower fees, good for programming, but newer campus and fewer top-tier companies.

VIT Chennai – ECE (Cat 2): Better campus, more industry exposure, but higher fees and slightly lower average packages for ECE.

Verdict: If you prefer CSE and lower fees, go for VIT Bhopal. If you value campus reputation and industry exposure, choose VIT Chennai ECE.

Hey there! With a rank of 74k in VITEEE, getting into CSE at VIT AP might be a bit tricky, especially in Category 1, where the competition is pretty fierce. However, you might have a better shot in Category 2, as they usually have more seats and slightly relaxed criteria. It's always worth checking the latest cutoffs and trends, but don't lose hope just yet! Good luck! For more detail call-9962747850

With a rank of 74,000 in VITEEE, it is unlikely that you will secure admission in Computer Science Engineering (CSE) in either Category 1 or Category 2 at VIT AP, as the cutoffs for CSE are generally higher. However, you may explore other branches or options.
