After completing the 10+2, it has always been severe pressure on the aspirants who are seeking through IIT entrance exams. Each lacs of students appear for the examinations while only hundreds are able to crack.

The tagline of being from an IIT is a sign of success in a career, few think but it is not all that one thinks about it. As apart from it there are few more options than the one-time preparation that can enable us to get a consistent and stronger platform to study.

After completion of the Graduation, there still are chances that one can appear for advanced and post-graduation. Some of the strong platform for engineering  entrance examination apart from the most preferred IIT are:

State JEE:  After the completion of 12^th the first and effective options for the engineering subject seekers appear in the state JEE. Almost all states have entrances while the WBJEE, UPJEE, CET are the most popular. It is always preferable to try for the state JEE, as there are the maximum chances to crack the state examination and convenient at the same time. Undergraduate engineering courses are provided by the institutions. Government colleges provide admission to students of the states.

But private colleges of the state provide admission to the state and outside the states for undergraduate programs. But it is necessary to check the restrictions before applying for the examination.

Manipal University: If compared to JEE main the level of difficulty of entrance examination for the engineering courses is high. The programs for UG courses, in Manipal university possess the top courses and facilities all over India.  It is important to crack the examination, but one thing that differentiates it from the Main JEE and IIT is the fee structure. Comparatively, it is expensive, so before applying for the exams check out the fee structure of the entire engineering course.

BITSAT:  For those who are determined to study engineering, one of the best platforms is to appear in the  BITSAT examination. The state toppers are allowed for direct admissions with the kind of subjects students want to opt. The entrance exams are conducted in Dubai, UAE apart from India.

So, there is no reason to dishearten yourself if no seat was possible in the IIT entrance exam, BITSAT can be one of the criteria for pursuing the desirable course. The examination is held in more than 49 to 50 cities in India, exclusive of the international entrances.  It is an online three hours of online examination.

No longer the opportunity to explore dream and career is impossible if anyone is not able to explore themselves with the subjects preferring for their UG engineering courses. Fulfill the dreams to learn and work in any field as it matters when students spend sleepless nights working hard to study to get one chance to crack the examination after their 12th. B.Tech courses are also provided by several institutions perhaps if anyone grows interests in studying technology in their UG courses.

First of all, no offence to those, who got an IQ, which is way below Einstein’s!

I’m also sailing in your boat and can totally understand the plight of my fellow travellers whose brain is welded in a different manner altogether!

However, I seriously wish that our society, our family and friends understood this!

How badly they want us all to become doctors and engineers and follow the same profession that everyone else is aspiring to be in! Try to imagine a situation where every boy and girl becomes a doctor.

Who will treat whom?

Who will charge money from whom?

Who will cook, who will clean, who will do farming, who will run things that can’t be run by doctors?

Are you getting the drift guys?

Since childhood every person we meet advises us to become doctors and engineers, no matter where our interest lies! Then the whole system of education prepares you to be this learning-by-rote parrot that by the time you are an adult you tend to forget that the area between two ears is used for thinking and imagining and consists of something called a brain! By the time we realize it, we are past the basic education stage and then it becomes harder to re-educate or go for higher education given perpetual time, money and resource deficit!

Therefore, it is very nice to not to be able to score great marks in science and math. That way, your parents will leave any hopes they had on you of pursuing MBBS or some other field related to science. A huge monkey goes off your back once it is proved by your school and teachers and everyone who meets you that you’re not so intelligent and might not be able to cope up with rigorous of medicine field or an engineering stream. A life is saved!

Firstly, your life is saved from doing something that you don’t want to do and secondly of scores of ordinary fellow citizens who might have become your patients if you indeed somehow did become a doctor! Imagine someone wanting to be a cricketer and pushed to become a doctor. He might throw a bouncer inside a patient while conducting the heart transplant or a guy wanting to be an architect might play around with a patient’s interiors for aesthetic values!

That might have been over the top, but the point is sometimes it does pays for not being so blessed with higher IQ! This is not to say that those wanting and really deserving and dreaming to become doctors and engineers should leave their dreams aside and pursue something else. No, it is just that parents and society shouldn’t force every child to pursue only one kind of profession. Everyone is different and there are a lot of possibilities in this world to earn money, make name while following your heart!

Go ahead and prove your intelligence in fields where your heart lies!

And say thanks to not so intelligent people to be pushed into the doctor-engineer-making factory!

Getting ahead of your competition in this ever-competitive environment is critical in landing you with your dream job and a lucrative salary package.

This edge can only be achieved if you put in some extra effort to be apart from the rest in a different sort of way.
