Hello Vivek,

See there is no percentage criteria to appear for JEE-Main but it is required for admission to NITs/IIITs/GFTIs and as per current criteria the 75% criteria has been waived off and now you only need to pass in class 12th so as you have passed in class 12th so you are definitely eligible for admission as well as for JEE-Main and if you qualify JEE-Main then you can definitely appear for JEE-Advance through which you can get admission in IIT Bombay or any other IITs depending upon your JEE-Advance rank but note that  there are some criterion which you need to satisfy in order to appear for JEE-Main so let us discuss them.

JEE-Main eligibility criteria is mentioned below :-

1--- Age criteria :- There is no age limit to appear in JEE-Main but note that there might be the age limit in any particular institution taking admission through JEE-Main score, so you should keep this thing in mind.

2--- Qualifying Examination :- To be eligible for JEE-Main one should have passed 10+2 examination with Physics, Mathematics as mandatory subjects along with one of the Chemistry/Biotechnology/Biology/ Technical Vocational subject from any of the recognized central or state board.

3--- Year of qualification :- For JEE-Main 2022 only those candidates who have passed Class 12 / equivalent examination in 2020, 2021 or 2022; or those who will be appearing in Class 12th / equivalent examination in 2022, would be eligible to appear.

So if you follow all above criterion then you are definitely eligible for JEE-Main.

Hi navya,

In order to purchase a laptop, there are various things to look before buying a laptop. Since you have mentioned that you need laptop for software engineering. So check these features for better reach and better use.

• User friendly laptop (easy access of data and setup of IDES)
• Space must be good since you need to download softwares as well.
• Build up quality must be good
• Preferring intel i5 processor
• Must have web cam and windows

Dell and hp has better laptop ranges. Also, the prices are quite good with the features included.

Asus vivobook is also a very good laptop.

Hope this information helps you. Revert in case of any query. Thank you!!

Hi,

Average ISRO Satellite Center Software Engineer salary in India is 4.2 Lakhs per year for employees with less than 1 year of experience to 3 years.

Software Engineer salary at ISRO Satellite Center ranges between 3.5 Lakhs to 4.8 Lakhs per year .

Computer/ Software Engineer is not a designation per se at ISRO. Normally computer people who work here can come through two channels:

1. Permanent through Centralised Recruitment (ICRB) for the post of Scientist-Engineer ‘SC’. As per 7th Pay Commission, If you join at entry level of Scientist SC, You get Level-10 basic pay of pay matrix. Basic pay will be 56100 plus allowances like DA, TA, HRA etc. It will be around 65k +-.
2. Temporary/ Contractual Basis: Can directly apply to Pvt. Employer running the contract. Actual salary varies and depends on employer it can be in range of 15k-30k (approx) though actual salary may be different.

Hence, your profile can be of software engineer but designation would be either of two.

ISRO has very different approach towards computer science engineers or any engineer for that matter. ALL are engineers first thence they will be put on for work, wherever there is requirement. You need to learn and grow. If you are lucky you will be worked in your area of interest. Nevertheless the core areas computer science engineers works in isro includes

1. Software development
2. Web development
3. Android or iOS app development
4. Network design and operations
5. Data center design and operations
6. Embedded software development and testing
7. Network security and information security
8. Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing
9. Storage design and maintenance
10. System and patch management
11. Video conferencing and facility engineering.
12. LAN and wan establishement and maintenance
13. Biometric access control, access control
14. Procurement of necessary hardware , software
15. Data processing and operations
16. Image processing and related operations

Apart from that Cs engineers are involved in

1. Shift operations for satellite control
2. Ground checkout
3. Embedded system design
4. RF system engineering
5. Ground system engineering
6. Launch vehicle system engineering
7. Payload design
8. Payload operations

Hope this helps.

Good luck.

Hi there,

Yes you can become a software engineer if you have not taken maths in your class 12th. But you must understand that without maths you will not be able to pursue Bachelor of technology course as this course requires physics, chemistry and mainly mathematics. So, mathematics is a must subject.

Still, you are able to become a software engineer, all you need to do is to apply for BCA course because through this course a student is eligible to go for software and it related job roles that will eventually make you an engineer.

Also, you can pursue diploma in computer science but the jobs are limited and also the salary package is not good. B.Tech is preferred more.

I hope this information will help you. Thank you and very good luck!!!

Hello,

To become a software you must have a Bachelor's Degree in relevant field such as B.E/B.Tech Computer Science Engineering, B.E/B.Tech Information Technology, B.Sc Computer Science, Bachelors of Computer Application or any other relevant field. The package offered by a Company differs depending on the roles, responsibilities, company etc. The average salary of a Software Engineer may vary from Three Lakhs per annum to Twelve Lakhs per annum.

Dear Student ,

Look , to get a job in IT fields .. your gained skills are the most important factor than your degree domain as per most of the companies . But , yes .. few companies may give limited access for B.Tech /MCA /M.sc students only for some job roles . You need to check the respective portal of their website for that to clarify the eligibility criteria they required .

Well, as you are a commerce student .. so you need to apply for job through offline campusing i.e. you need to search your own the available companies that are hiring freshers .

Some important tips to crack the off campus placement :

• You should have a knowledge of at least one programming like C/C++/Java/Python etc.
• Practice hands on coding on a regular basis
• practice Aptitude and logical reasoning questions for qualifying the round 1
• Go through the PYQs for individual companies
• For a specific job role , you need to know the requirement of companies and learn accordingly that topics , concepts to increase your hiring chances

Hope this helps !
