Hi,
I hope you are doing well.
Among the 3 mentioned universities GCETTS do not have that good placement opportunities in comparing to the other two.
GCELT gets good placement opportunities as 80% students get the placement opportunities with highest salary of 7 lakhs PA and also 90% of students get placed with internship opportunities as well.
GCECT is definitely the best with placement opportunities as it gets students placed with top Multi National companies such as Accenture, Wipro, TCS, IBM, etc with highest salary packages of 7-8 lakhs PA
I hope this helps.
All the very best.
