  Hi,  

 Before giving your choices have a look at the previous years seat allotments , you can access these things from the institute websites for e.g. jee.iitm.ac.in by doing this you get an idea regarding which is a better department and a better institute , and also the closing ranks of each department. To make it clear these closing ranks  are not going to be the same every year  it just gives you a rough idea where your rank may fall in. 

        While giving your choices give higher priority to the departments and the institute in which you would like to join (even if you think you are not going to get it according to the previous year statistics) . Try to give as many number of choices as possible.

IIT's are going to offer you  B.Tech, M.Tech(Dual Degree) , M.Sc(5 Years Integrated) , B.Arch though JEE

B.Tech/M.Tech - If you are interested in any B.Tech program and you think if you are not going get it in any of the institute in which you are interested, you may get the same program in a M.Tech (Dual Degree) course in which you will be getting a M.Tech Degree along with the B.tech Degree in 5 years. This Dual Degree is as much valuable as B.Tech Degree. 

M.Sc - If you are highly interested in any of the subjects like maths, chemistry, physics, economics. You can pursue these as 5 years integrated M.Sc course.

         

         

 DON'TS

Don't give preference to the institutes according to your regional  area , but give according to academics and other facilities available.Don't , keep any negative impressions regarding any branch unless you completely know about them, contact us if u want to know specifically about a particular branch.

Don't  opt for for a branch/institute just because most of your friends are opting, just stick to your own interest you may get better institute/branch than them.

        

          

         According to my point of view Computer Science,Electronics, Electrical, Mechanical are the top branches in IIT's and NIT's . During my counselling  I preferred the branches in the  same order as i mentioned above. The branch which I am damn sure of getting was my 12th option in my choice list. Even though knowing that I am not gong to get the first 11 options(which are better than the 12th one) I just tried my luck, the same  thing worked for my friend according to our previous years closing rankings he is not going to get ECE , he gave his option in the list, & he got it .Now he is doing his M.Tech(Dual) in  IIT Kharagpur . Give choices even after the option which you might  think you will get, its just for your own safety.

PLEASE DO CONTACT YOUR SENIORS BEFORE FINALIZING YOUR CHOICES,  be in contact with them well before counselling time , so that you can take your time in making a vital decision in your life.
