hi,

Both NIT Surathkal Civil and RV College EEE are good, but your choice should depend on your interest and future plans.

If you want the NIT tag, a strong campus, and are thinking about higher studies or government jobs, NIT Surathkal Civil is a solid option. It may not have the highest private placements compared to other branches, but it gives you good long-term value.

If you are looking for better placement chances in the private sector and want to explore jobs in core companies or even IT, RV College EEE is a smart choice. EEE also gives you flexibility to move into software jobs if you learn some coding along the way.

Let's break down your options:


Current Situation

- You've scored 98.67 in JEE Mains 2025, which might not be enough to secure a seat in IIT Bombay for B.Tech.

- However, you're likely to get a seat in NIT Surathkal for EEE or ECE.


Option 1: Pursue B.Tech in NIT Surathkal

- Pros:

- You'll get a good undergraduate degree from a reputable institution.

- You can focus on academics, research, and extracurricular activities.

- Cons:

- You might feel that you're not in your dream college (IIT Bombay).


Option 2: Take a Drop Year for JEE Advanced 2026

- Pros:

- You might improve your score and secure a seat in IIT Bombay for B.Tech.

- IIT Bombay is a prestigious institution with excellent resources and opportunities.

- Cons:

- There's no guarantee that you'll improve your score or get into IIT Bombay.

- You'll have to prepare for another intense exam season.


Option 3: Pursue M.Tech from MIT (Manipal Institute of Technology)

- Pros:

- MIT offers a good M.Tech program with various specializations.

- You can gain expertise in your chosen field and enhance your career prospects.

- Cons:

- You'll need to complete your B.Tech before applying for M.Tech.

- You might need to take entrance exams like GATE or MET.


Considerations

- Your interests and priorities: Are you more interested in pursuing a B.Tech from IIT Bombay or an M.Tech from MIT?

- Your academic and career goals: Will a B.Tech from NIT Surathkal or an M.Tech from MIT align better with your goals?

- The risks and benefits of taking a drop year: Are you prepared to take the risk of not improving your score or getting into IIT Bombay?


Ultimately, the decision depends on your individual circumstances, priorities, and goals.
