Hello Bhuvan,

This is a personal decision based on a few important components:

1. Goal Clarity: If IIT Bombay is your dream school and you feel you can prepare for the next iteration of JEE Advanced, dropping a year to study for JEE Advanced is a reasonable option. A dedicated and focused drop year has helped many students achieve great scores on JEE Advanced, and the top ranks.
2. Current Opportunity: NIT Surathkal is one of the top NITs with opportunities for excellent placements, research opportunities, and the opportunity for interactions with top companies - especially for ECE/EEE. After that, with good academics, you can potentially earn your way into top M.Tech programs like MIT, Stanford, or IITs via GATE or GRE.
3. Risk vs Reward: Dropping a year has a risk component: mental and academic risk. Think about whether you can handle that level of pressure and if your performance at JEE Advanced can improve with one more year of preparation.
4. Ambition for MIT M.Tech: For M.Tech, you don't need an IIT degree to get into MIT. Strong research and projects, GRE scores, and thoughtful and compelling YES at SOP matter more than an IIT degree. Many students from top NITs get into MIT and other institutions throughout the world.

No, a 74.6% in Class 12th boards does not automatically qualify you for an M.Tech in Computer Science at IIT Bombay. While you can apply for JEE Main, you'll likely be ineligible for IIT admissions because of the 75% (or 65% for reserved categories) requirement for Class 12th marks. Your eligibility for IIT Bombay's M.Tech program will primarily depend on your GATE score and other requirements.

Hello,

IIT Bombay's MTech in Computer Science offers excellent placements with CTC ranging from Rs. 15-40 LPA, depending on the company and role.

• The course is challenging, requiring strong problem-solving skills and dedication.

• Fees : Approximately Rs. 2-2.5 lakhs per year.

• Highly qualified and experienced faculty.

With a GATE 2025 score of 644 in civil engineering, an OBC girl from Andhra Pradesh has a good chance of getting a seat in structural engineering. However, the cutoff scores for structural engineering programs vary across institutions and are often influenced by factors like the number of applicants and the seats available.

Considering the candidate's score and category, here are some possible institutions and programs to explore:

- NITs: With a score of 644, she may have a good chance of getting into NITs like NIT Warangal, NIT Trichy, or NIT Surathkal for their structural engineering programs.

- IITs: Although the cutoff scores for IITs are generally higher, she may still have a chance of getting into some IITs like IIT Guwahati, IIT Gandhinagar, or IIT Hyderabad for their structural engineering programs.

- State universities: She may also consider state universities like JNTU Hyderabad or Andhra University, which offer structural engineering programs.

To get a better idea of her chances, I recommend using online college predictors like Careers360's GATE College Predictor .This tool can help her estimate her chances of getting into specific institutions and programs based on her score and category.
