Clearing the JEE Main exam in first attempt is not a difficult task. Several students clear JEE Main while in class 12. One thing that makes it easy to clear JEE Main with class 12 is that students are in regular touch of most JEE syllabus. To score good marks in JEE Main in the first attempt, it is advised that you study class 11 and 12 topics thoroughly, clear all the concepts and solve mock test papers. Also, NCERT books which you study in class 11 and 12 are the best books for JEE Main preparation. Students must study NCERT properly and solve all the questions in the book and do not memorize the concepts as some students do rather understand the concepts.

In the past five years, there has been a steady decline in enrollment for B.Tech and B.E courses due to a reduction in job opportunities in core streams. Fresher hiring by IT companies has notably decreased, dropping from 26% of overall passouts in FY22 to 15% and 10% in FY23 and FY24. However, Cloud Computing, Artificial Intelligence, and Cybersecurity, which continue to experience niche demand are in hope.

There is rising demand in emerging BTech specializations like Robotics Engineering, Biotechnology Engineering, Food Technology, etc. 

The number of seats available in BTech programmes at Aryans Group of Colleges:

• Civil Engineering- 120
• Electrical Engineering- 60
• Mechanical Engineering- 60 
• Computer Science Engineering- 60
• Electrical & Electronics Engineering- 60

Artificial Intelligence is a broad and expansive subject which machine learning is a part of. Mimicking human intelligence is the end goal of any AI module. ML has a smaller more limited scope. It is a subset of AI, that helps AI achieve its goal by building trained algorithms and software that can work without explicit prompts.

The scope of AI & ML is limitless. The major recruiters are from the healthcare, e-commerce, finance and defense, along with many more sectors. Countries like US, UK, Germany and Japan offer a high employability rate for roles in many technology-based areas. The average salary for US, UK, Germany and Japan for the role of AI & ML Engineer is $1L/yr, £44K/yr, €58K/yr, and JP¥75.2L/yr respectively.

AI & ML courses are a stepping stone to the diverse and enormous field of Artificial Intelligence. They educate students in the art of creating systems that analyse extensive datasets, automate decision making and work towards real world problem solving. Gaining a degree in AI & ML offers a greater chance at high paying employment in this tech first economy.
