Engineering

Hi Vitthal,
Yes , you can take admission direct in the second year of the Engineering course but you need to go through the entrance exam conducted by the State board. You can even go through exams like IIT JEE and AIEEE but you need to study the Engineering course from the first year if you opt for IIT and AIEEE.
A separate entrance exam is conducted for the Diploma students State wide for entrance into Engineering. Each University and college provides lateral entry for the students who have completed Diploma but colleges which are under the University allow students to go through the Engineering course from the second year. But, if scored well in the entrance exams please choose a University rather than a college under the University.
Each State provides entrance exam for diploma students for entry into Engineering colleges. Each University and college reserves almost 6 or more seats for lateral entry but the only difference is University reserves in the first year and colleges under University reserve the seats in the second year.

What does failure means friend. What my experience say is this. You never know what our passion is until class 12. When you are undergoing our graduation that time we feel this wasn't the right choice. So having a backlog is not failure, but you aren't interested in electrical kind of subject. If coding is passion and you are dedicated to be an engineer then Opt for a branch change or a different college. Second point is that if you feel engineering is not what you want to do. Then also there are many options. Go for pure Science, law, BBA and many other streams. First decide upon few things, whether you love engineering or whether engineering is not what you would like to pursue? All the best.
