If you have scored around 40 percentile in MHT CET and want to take Computer Science (CS) branch in Pune, then getting into top government or high-ranking private colleges will be very difficult because the cut-offs for CS are usually very high. However, you can still try in private colleges under management quota or institute-level seats, where cut-offs are more flexible.

Some colleges in Pune where you may have a chance:

Jaihind College of Engineering

KJ College of Engineering & Management Research

Alard Group of Institutions

Trinity Academy of Engineering

Progressive Education Society’s Modern College of Engineering

Dr. D.Y. Patil College of Engineering

Marathwada Mitra Mandal College of Engineering

Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering

Vishwakarma Institute of Technology

Bharati Vidyapeeth Deemed University College of Engineering

Hello Tanuja

With 40 percentile (assuming in MH CET), these are the colleges which you can get:

1. D.Y. Patil Institute of Engineering, Management & Research

2. Jayawantrao Sawant College of Engineering

3. Sinhgad College of Engineering group

4. Genba Sopanrao Moze College of Engineering

5. Zeal College of Engineering and Research

6. PES Modern College of Engineering

Hope this answer helps! Thank You!!!

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out!

There is this College in Vasai named St. Gonsalo Garcia College, that offers Bsc, IT and the eligibility criteria mentioned in their website is just HSC (+2) conducted by Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education, Pune. If you've done your HSC from other board, then you need to produce an eligibility certificate.

So, you can check with them for BSc, IT. Hopefully, you'll get into it.

Hello Aspirant,

You can find previous year question papers for Computer Science (CS) exams on various educational websites and official boards.

For CBSE Class 12 Computer Science , the official CBSE Academic website offer free PDF downloads of question papers from recent years (2024, 2023, and older). These often include sample papers and marking schemes to help you prepare.

If you are looking for Company Secretary (CS) exam papers (like CS Executive), the Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) website is the best source. Many other educational platforms provide these papers for download, often with solutions.

Hi dear candidate,

The basic eligibility criteria for Diploma in Computer Science is:

• 10th class passed with at least 50% marks with good knowledge of English, Mathematics and Science subjects.
• Age should be between 15 to 21 years.
• Reserved category students may avail a relaxation of 5% in minimum marks in 10th class.

If you fulfill all the requirements mentioned above you can take admission in Diploma in CS at any institution. Keep in mind that few institutions may require an additional entrance exam AIE CET.

Hello,

If you got M.Tech Integrated in IoT at DAVV with a rank of 262 and want to upgrade to AI & DS or CS/IT, it depends on seat availability and cut-off ranks in further counselling rounds.

If higher preference branches like AI & DS or CS/IT remain vacant and your rank fits in the cut-off, you may get an upgrade.

Keep checking official counselling updates and attend all rounds. Also, contact DAVV admission cell for clear guidance.

If not upgraded, you can study well in IoT and later shift to a related field or switch during M.Tech (if allowed).

Hope it helps !

Hi ,

With 419.9 marks in PCM+English and a UR merit rank of 351 in DAVV counselling, you have a fairly decent chance of getting into the Integrated BTech+MTech program, but your exact branch will depend on how many higher-ranked students opt for AI-DS, IT, or CS. Generally, CS and AI-DS are in the highest demand and close early, while Electronics or IT may have seats open for longer.

At DAVV, rank 351 is not extremely high, but in previous years, candidates with similar ranks did manage to secure Electronics, IT, or even CS if there was a drop in demand.

Also, DAVV cutoffs can fluctuate each year depending on the total applicants, so even a few ranks difference can change your chances. Make sure you don’t miss the document verification deadlines, as your seat will not be confirmed until all certificates are validated.

Thank you!

As a BSc Computer Science student, you can learn many useful skills for free that will help you get a job. You can start with basic programming, data structures, web development, databases, and job preparation. Many websites offer free courses with certificates.

you can learn programming like python and java. it is useful for software, data science, and automation jobs.
you can learn data structures and algorithms. they are very important for job interviews.
you can learn web development like html, css, javascript, and react. these are needed for web development jobs.
you can learn sql and databases. most it jobs ask for database knowledge.
you can learn git and github. these are used to manage and share code.
you can prepare for resume writing and interviews. many websites help in that.
you can do google free courses. they offer it, data analytics, and marketing courses with certificates.

Hello,

Yes, you can give the improvement exam to increase your 12th percentage.

If you improve your marks and meet the minimum eligibility criteria (usually 60% in 10th, 12th, and graduation), then you can apply for placements in companies like TCS and Wipro.

But remember, some companies may ask for original marksheets at the time of joining, so make sure you give the improvement exam as early as possible.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

Thanks for your detailed query. Let’s break this down step by step so you get a clear idea.

First, between BKBIET Pilani, Poornima College, and JECRC Jaipur, here’s a quick comparison for Computer Science:

• JECRC Jaipur is considered better overall in terms of placement, infrastructure, and reputation compared to BKBIET.
• Poornima is also good, especially in Jaipur, but JECRC has slightly stronger industry connections and more consistent placement records.
• And BKBIET Pilani is decent, but if you’re comparing only for CSE, then JECRC > Poornima > BKBIET.

Now, about getting CS in JECRC without REAP , unfortunately, JECRC participates in REAP counselling for regular admissions. So unless they open management quota seats or spot admission later, it’s tough to get CS without REAP.

You can check their official website for direct admission possibilities or call their admission office and request if there are any vacant seats or internal quota options.

Best wishes for your engineering journey!
