I have got good rank and getting tier 1 nit cse. I am going to take cse but i dont know anything about coding and all that. I never had pc or laptop in my life. Can someone help me from where do i start or learn anything?

NIT Trichy chem or tier 2 NITs CSE. Also I was getting mechanical in Trichy but, I seemed to like chemical. But, yeah I also like CSE and other circuital branches too. I am a good learner and actually have interest in both. But I'm getting mixed opinions from people. Please help me. And upvote it asap. Josaa closes tomorrow.

guys I'm an sc student, I wanted to know how much atleast would I need to score in mains for a good nit?

What are the subjects required for 75% criteria for boards? Is pcm + english + optional subject compulsory or we can choose our best 5 subjects?(excluding p/c/m) the sources online are confusing as well. Has anyone taken admission in NIT/IIIT/IIT with his preference of subjects for 75% criteria?

anybody who got into iit or decent college by following prayas ??

I'm from NIT second year ece but I'm so confused whether to take core or software, I am interested in software but I'm afraid of losing my job in the future, cause it's easy to learn so won't everyone learn from just a laptop and I'll be replaced easily? Maybe I am wrong so help me like I was just going through a video in which he said about ML engineering course so that can just be learnt from YouTube, so how I'll I be different from someone else?

Going into 3rd year (EE) at a top 5 NIT (placement-wise), and the stress is kicking in hard. CPI is 7.98. Haven't done any internships, solved ~130 Leetcode (mostly mediums), participated in a few contests (rating ~1400), and know just the basics of HTML/CSS/JS. Real talk I feel like I'm gonna miss out on internships coming up in my 5th sem and get stuck during placements. The CPI cutoff, lack of dev, and weak DSA prep are all catching up now. I'm also considering preparing for GATE 2026/27 for PSUs, but haven't started anything serious yet. I know IT jobs are risky and I don't feel fully prepped for that either. Should I go all in on GATE or is there still time to salvage my placement chances with DSA/dev? Anyone in the same boat or has come out of this I'd genuinely appreciate any guidance.

i only have 72% in my 12th boards (so NIT/lIT are not possible) and if i take a drop this year and give JEE mains 2026 and say score something decent. What are my options? Should i give improvement exam? or look forward to other colleges? if yes which colleges would you recommend

Let's say I have a secured admission in a nit in josaa rounds, then I want to go for csab to see if I can get a better nit, but if I am not allotted any nit in there how do I go about getting my original seat that I got through josaa? Is it automatically allotted to me as my last option in csab rounds or is there anything I need to do? Also what if I just want to exit in round 1 with my josaa seat and don't want to go for 2nd round of csab, how do I do that. Thank you!
