YOU HAVE MANY OPTIONS WHICH IITJEE INFORMATION SHEET WOULD INDICATE. IT ALL DEPENDS WHERE YOUR INTEREST LIES. FOLLOWING MAY BE GOOD CHOICES FOR YOU:
CHEMICAL - DELHI, KANPUR, KHARAGPUR, MADRAS
ELECTRICAL : ROORKEE
PRODUCTION & INDUSTRIAL : DELHI
MECHANICAL : ROORKEE
IN CASE YOU DECIDE TO GO FOR A DUAL DEGREE PROGRAMME WHICH ACCORDING TO ME YOU SHOULD NOT AS YOU HAVE A PRETTY GOOD RANK UNLESS YOU HAVE INTEREST IN HAVING AN M TECH ALONGWITH A B TECH FROM IIT, YOU HAVE A BASKETFULL OF CHOICES.
DECIDE APPROPRIATELY.
BEST OF LUCK
YOURS IS A FAIRLY GOOD RANK. IN CASE YOU WISH TO GO FOR CIVIL BECAUSE OF LIKING FOR IT, IT IS A DIFFERENT MATTER. IN THAT CASE GO FOR A MORE REPUTED IIT LIKE KANPUR. ELSE YOU MAY GET B TECH (PRODUCTION & INDUSTRIAL ENGG) AT ROORKEE. THIS COURSE IS OFFERED BY MECHANICAL ENGG DEPTT. IN CASE YOU DONOT HESITATE OPTING FOR DUAL DEGREE PROGRAMMES, A WHOLE LOT OF COURSES ARE AVAILABLE IN MOST OF THE IITS. CHOOSE ONE OF THEM ACCORDING TO YOUR LIKING.
BEST OF LUCK.
YOU HAVE GOT EXCELLENT RANK. YOU MAY THINK OF INDUSTRIAL & PRODUCTION ENGG AT IIT ROORKEE. IT IS OFFERED BY MECHANICAL ENGG DEPARTMENT.
ELECTRONICS AT BITS, PILANI IS A NICE CHOICE. BUT YOU HAVE AN EXCELLENT RANK IN IITJEE TOO. IF YOU WISH TO PERSUE A CAREER IN ONE OF THE IITS WHICH ACCORDING TO ME YOU SHOULD, THERE ARE ADEQUATE OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO YOU. HAVE A LOOK AT 2007 CLOSING RANKS OF VARIOUS BRANCHES. IT WOULD TELL YOU THAT YOU CAN GET A COURSE OF YOUR CHOICE IN ONE OF THE IITS.
THINK OVER BEFORE DECIDING. IITs HAVE GREAT BRAND VALUE AND IMAGE. AT A RANK LIKE THIS IT WOULD BE WORTH WHILE GIVING A PROPER THOUGHT OVER IT BEFORE DECIDING.
I DONOT FEEL THAT THERE IS ANY RESAON FOR A DILEMA. BITS, PILANI IS UNDOUTEDLY RANKED BETTER THAN A COUPLE OF IITs. AT 342, YOU MAY BE OFFERED ELECTRIC & ELECTRONICS ENGG AT BITS, PILANI. BUT THEN IITs HAVE A BRAND VALUE. WITH JEEAIR 1213 YOU ARE VERY COMFORTABLY PLACED. YOU HAVE MANY OPTIONS LIKE ELECTRICAL AT ROORKEE, INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION AT DELHI, ELECTRONICS AT GUWAHATI , ENGG PHYSICS AT MUMBAI - DELHI, CHEMICAL AT KANPUR- KHARAGPUR ETC. YOU MAY CHOOSE A COURSE OF YOUR LIKING. PREVIOUS YEAR MY SON HAD SECURED AIR 1076 AND HAD ALSO SECURED 387 IN BITSAT 2007. HE WAS OFFERED COMPUTER ENGG AT BITS, PILANI. FULLY RESPECTING BITS, PILANI, HE DECIDED TO GO IN FOR INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION AT IIT, DELHI. BUT DONOT GET INFLUENCED BY THIS. HE DID WHAT HE BELIEVED THE BEST. YOU MAY DECIDE SUITABLY.
In IITJEE 2007, 260 marks had fetched approximate AIR 2100. Since IITJEE 2008 is tougher than the previous one, expectedly, 260 marks is going to fetch a better rank, may be 1800 or so.
Best of luck.
It is very difficult to predict rank as far as IITJEE is concerned. In IITJEE 2007, AIR 1076 had secured 296 marks. If it is any indication, your rank should be between 1250 and 1350. It must fetch you a good course in one of the IITs.
