Hi,

With 16 percentile in MHT CET, it is very tough to get admission in top colleges in Pune for AI & Data Science (AIDS), as the cut-off for this branch is usually very high.

However, you may still get admission in low-ranked private engineering colleges through management quota or institute-level vacant seats.

Some colleges in Pune offering AI & DS are:

1. MIT World Peace University, Pune

2. DY Patil Institute of Technology, Pimpri

3. Sinhgad College of Engineering, Vadgaon

4. PCCOE, Pimpri

5. JSPM’s Rajarshi Shahu College of Engineering

All the best!


Hello,

Since you got admission through JEE Main rank (All India quota) , your admission is considered under the open/general category , not the state reservation (NT-C) category.

So, you need to pay the Open/General category fees , not the NT-C fees.

Hope it helps !

Yes, preparing for the 12th MHT-CET syllabus will also cover your board syllabus, since both are the same. For boards, focus more on textbook theory, diagrams and writing practice. For CET, practice MCQs and speed-based solving. Solving previous years’ board papers will boost your score. With proper balance, you can easily aim for 90%+ in boards while preparing for CET.



Hey!

You have scored 51% and want to purse BA.LLB  under Savitribai Phule University,pune.The main campus offers  BA.LLB but its cutoff is usually higher,so it may be tough with your score.

However,there are many SPPU-affiliated colleges offering BA.LLB but most of them requires higher percentile.You can add them including the main campus, just in case cutoff drops, but you should go for practical options like

PES Modern law college

MES law college

Abhinav Education Society's Law college .

These colleges usually have lower cutoffs but it may vary slightly.

the safest option is to fill maximum choices of SPPU-affiliated colleges , you may get it in later rounds though it's not guaranteed .
