IIT prof's advice to students for JOSAA Counselling 

But then how will the coaching mafia sell dreams ? Its all a nexus.

Exactly, that's the way it should be

Not even IITs take the lead to bring about a change in branch selection methodology like in the European or American Universities. Even if they did everyone would still mindlessly chase in the sequence CSE->ECE->EE->ME etc. Most of the students who get selected are the type that are able to work extremely hard consistently for an externally acquired goal that is not deeply rooted in their brain and are also Intelligent. (This doesn't happen in developed countries because of less population and respectable colleges even at mid-level which is not the case in India) These types never really grew the neural networks required to determine what they want to be. So even if the branch change method is made more flexible it would still be useless and would step back to the current style. Most of the people I know who made it into IITs are just enjoying their time and waiting for the placement day and very understandable because they worked so hard till burn-out and everyone around them congratulated them so much that they think that they have completed life, why would they wonder what to choose between Electrical or Mechanical when they can just go to the website and check for placement stats, how does it even matter if they like to study Advanced Magnetism or Advanced Rotational mechanics? they literally studied any chapter thrown at them for the sake of a future with a high-paying job so why wouldn't placement stats not be the no. 1 priority for them? It would be a illogical to prioritize ones interests at this point

Iam interested in finance related fields. Shoud I opt for Economics in IITK or IITB

@@SaiKrishna-lb3uf Economics or MnC

Wonderful! A big congratulations! Where do you want to join?

@@Prof_JC Confused between wether to take 4 year CSE at IIT Madras ( location disadvantage since I am in Delhi ) or IIT Kanpur , or take a 5 year Integrated Dual Degree CSE at Delhi ( Location wise best + have some seniors i know here )

@@yashrawat5071 your are from mount carmel school, dwarka right? congrats!

​@@izlamastfgil5309 yes , thanks

@@Prof_JC sir are there any good IIITs for 27k rank in mains?

And, I must thank you for being absolutely unwavering in your support all throughout the year!

@@Prof_JC it’s my pleasure Sir. Actually lot of learning.

Thank you for thinking in such a mature fashion. Please maintain this attitude. And, I really wish that going forward that your career trajectory will rise higher and higher. All the very best!

Same , but I am very sad .All this learnt very much , gained knowledge is okay to say , but the disappointment , the rage of not getting an IIT , more importantly not clearing the exam you prepared for , is much much more devastating.

App ab kya kr rhe ho mtlb kis college se konsi branch

​@@HarshDPatil123ap ab kya kr rhe ho??

😢😢

Same me also 85 marks😭😭😭😭😭😭

Generals have to pay जजिया to the system in the same way as Hindus have to pay during Mughal era

Bro what's u mains rank

Same with me 76 obc

You are most welcome. And thank you for the kind words.

​@@Prof_JCsir could you please make a video about what you learn in mechanical engineering pleaseee

Yes son.... ee dept. Better thanmechanical

bro nirf rankings are an obvious scam dont misguide aspirants, your college is within 20 so u use that arbritary filter to judge institutions

@@yojitkapoor8489obviously prefer government institutions….thats like a given that every aspirants knows that all private institutions except BITS are not that good and they should resort to them as a last option

Thank you for the kind words.

It is unfortunate that many young students do not realise this!

Please help me to choose best branch for me and also suggest good college based on jee advanced cutoff my sc Category rank is 4878 🙏🙏🙏

Bro what did you choose?

what have you pursued

In IITs, there is EE which is EEE actually ( in fact more inclined towards ECE)

Just search their syllabus on the internet see how much difference they have in their syllabus. You will know what to choose.

You know instead of asking cliche questions like this, you can simply see the course structure and electives of the subjects and make up your own mind

You have mentioned some very strong points behind the decisions of the students. I am trying to spread a bit more awareness through these videos.

Ok bro... but u tell...niw.. which department ..has good placement other than circuit branches ...pls tell us

@saivarshaproducts4306 For the average student who are looking for a job immediately after B.Tech, it is best to choose the circuital branches. But circuital also includes Electrical. And Electrical cannot be taught properly in places which don't have proper facilities.

Tq for yoyr reply sir...

​​​@@Prof_JCr even if I have a mild inclination towards a particular branch should I go for it? I dont know why ece interests me I am getting mechanical in iits like tirupati,dharwad etc but I don't wish to learn thermo again I feel kind of hurt to leave this iit seat and pursue ece somewhere else... Please help sir🙏🙏🙏🙏

I was thinking of making something along those lines. Let me see; I will think seriously about it.

IIT Hyd Biomed

Yeah, I'm interested in those too. There's precious little information available about them on the Internet though

aap amit gupta sir wale raushan kumar ho? unacademy?

Kya loge bhai fir kuch mil rha h kya?

​@@udaybhan3698 power of bheem

No

@@blurofficial4031 why?

as an iitian (iit guwahati 3rd year) -> location does play a factor, in kgp the surrounding area is not urban so there is not much to do outside, iitd would be much better as far as college life goes, as far as academics and placement goes, these are both top colleges so your own effort in the next 4 years matters wayy more than the college you select for placements, location only determines your life other than studies

nearly the same exact companies come for placements in all old iits and also the professors are the top researchers in thier own respective field, imo academics in all old iits are very similar after talking to my friends in other iits

I thought the last date of filling in the choice was June 17 or June 18. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Yes sir ur absolutely right...but 1st mock allotment will be done on the basis of choice filling we made on 14th of june and the 2nd one will be on the basis of changes in choices made by us on 16th june.

Bro kia le rhe ho?

Same doubt

I have discussed some of these issues in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_fENTnz1Gz8.html

@@Prof_JC Thank you, sir!

Bhai if this is true , you should file a case in high Court

Bhai High court and supreme court ko bhi email likh di koi response nahi aaya Case filling se bas case saalo tak courts mein chalta rhega Inke uper tho vaise bhi last year ke same cases file h but kuch hua nahi bus vo saare cases court mein chal hi rhe h And proof ke naam per bus ek transaction complete ka screenshot h jab mene advance ka form badha tha jab Mera result change nahi hua tha or jab mene result change hone ke baad advance vaali website pe log in Kara then vo invalid show karne laga

Even i have the same doubt. I am also confused whether to tzke bs in physics from iit

IISC bs or IIT kanpur bs, don't go for engineering physics, if you are serious about Theoretical Physics. You have to do PhD+postdoc for a faculty position in top institutes. If you want other job then go for engineering physics in IIT Bombay, you will get good job.

@@Jesus-cm6ln Thank you

Bro you are taking new IIts or nit cse

Cutoff is very high this year A single mark boosts the rank by 200-600 depending on the rank.

What do you plan to do now?

9977 rank at 125.Never expected such a bad rank. Speechless

@@shivanshmehra3365 how did adv go?

Thank you. It will be great to meet.

I got 3462, not sure whether will get mech at iit Kharagpur going by previous cut offs

What did u choose

Apne kya choose kiya bro???

congrats! iisc would be a great choice

Iisc girl! If you're interested in research. Go for it!

IISC is the best choice

Congratulations. Just a random question, which state are you from?

Where you are now

What did you choose brother?

@@saikrishna-kt1np Iitb eco

Degrade from cse to eee Or ece

PILANI CSE

Cse pilani

What are you thinking?I am in a similar situation.

Please reply sir

Thank you. Instrumentation is a specialization within the Electrical Engineering Department. As an undergraduate student, many of the basic courses you will do in the initial years will be common with EE and even ECE and sometimes CS. It can be a very good choice.

@@Prof_JC Thank you so much for your time sir, do you perhaps know a source where I could find out some more about this course? I have already checked out the course structure and the few details in the website

@@fearmemortals2.084 Best is if you could find some senior student or a recent graduate. But probably this is not a very realistic suggestion! Have you looked into the course structure in some more detail: erp.iitkgp.ac.in/ERPWebServices/curricula/CurriculaSubjectsList.jsp?stuType=UG&splCode=IE&curr_type=NEW. Please click on the individual subject codes to know the details of the various subjects.

@@Prof_JC Oh wow, I actually didn't know about that. Thank you so very much sir.

Speaking will also be taught in every IITs and nits.

And in IITs and nits, we have to learn by ourself. This is very much imp and have to face every question by ourself cuz we cant ask doubts and things in classroom. To learn and ask doubts toppers can help you out there in Exchange of money.

What is your tier 3? If it's a really bad college then even cs is not worth there

@@nihaal7750 actually it is one of the top state college through mht cet. Probably closer to mid-NITS and is quiet old too from 1860s.

@Prof_JC

I think you had also mentioned this as a comment in one of my blog posts, right? If you wish you can email me.

@@Prof_JC Thank you for reply Prof. JC. Yes, I had mentioned this as a comment on your blog as well. Apologies for spamming. I have sent you an email.

Hello! Even I'm aspiring upsc after my graduation in nits...so which engg. branch would itself help me... give ur insights.. And by the way I'm getting mining in nit suratkal and in IIEST shibpur...and also metallurgy and material engg..

@@shreeramarama6390 ..no branch actuall helps much..but mech like branches have better time to do that..but i have particular interest in ee...so i am taking ee

You might well go for industrial and systems engineering 4 yr at KGP
