No, it is not important to stay in hostel but you won't get any transport facility from the college side as well. You'll have to arrange that on your own. Moreover, college hostel is most convenient as per my experience till date.

Hello Afzal,
If you want to improve your marks, you have to attempt all the papers. If you give one or two papers, it will be not considered by the JEE and your previous year marks will be taken into consideration.

Hello Baliram,
In aeronautical engineering, study revolves around aviation where theories are limited to air but astronautics comprises of space study. Both are better according to my perception. Sectors for jobs are Boeing, Taneja, TAAL, BHEL, Mahindra, ISRO, DRDO, etc.

My opinion is that you have to take admission in an autonomous college. You can easily get YCCE if you want.
