B.Tech

Hello Srinivas,
After getting admission for an engineering course and studying for 2 years in mechanical engineering, you decided to quit. Why, what happened? You have not told anything about the circumstances that made you leave this course. Was it ragging, was it the finance issue, was it inability to cope up with the study and attendant pressure? I would strongly recommend that you analyse the reasons for your decision to quit and if you can overcome the circumstances then go back to the same college and complete the remaining two years. This would be in the best interest of you. However in case you feel it is simply not feasible, then you have to start afresh from the first year in any distance learning course. These two years which you have spent in engineering can be treated as experience gained and just dismiss it. There are plenty of Institutions who are offering engineering via distance mode and you can get all the information from the Shiksha app about these. Best wishes to you.

Hello Tanmay,
Maharashtra is among the few states, which does not conduct any entrance examination for giving admission directly into second year of engineering colleges by what is called as the lateral mode of admission. However, the selection of candidates is based on the marks obtained by them in either the Diploma examination conducted by the government of Maharashtra or the B.Sc examination conducted by different universities. You will have to apply online seeking admission for lateral mode on the website of directorate of Technical Education Maharashtra. Presently, this is not available as there is still some time left for the declaration of results of the Diploma students.
