  • Popular and Relevant Branches and Seats

An institute's popularity is also influenced by what courses it offers. Colleges that provide in-demand courses and preferred over those that offer courses with limited scope in the future.

This helps to set realistic goals that have a high chance of resulting in admissions. It also ensures students do not miss out on any choices and regret later.
