Jamshedpur

You can consider Jamia, IPU, GNE-Ludhiana, Thapar, SLIET, PEC-Chandigarh, HBTU-Kanpur, IET-Lucknow, MMU-Gorakhpur, etc.

I assume you mean to say that you got 58.8 percentile in MAT. In order to get into XLRI, you need to give XAT. Upon receiving the call from XLRI, you will have to clear the GD and PI rounds. The cumulative scores of XAT and GD-PI will be taken into account for the admission in XLRI.

Hi Rashmi!
Unfortunately there are no institutes in Jamshedpur for sound engineering course. Although, you can look for colleges in Ranchi or Kolkata for better prospects. Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute, Kolkata is the best institute for the said course.

Yes, past academic performance has a weightage in the final interview process.

Yes. Both in internship placements of 1st year as well as in final placements for the 2nd year students. XLRI is only getting better with placements. There is a phrase we say here, 'XL aae ho, place to hoge hi'. I think that should suffice.

I would say, VLCC is one of the best institute offering short-term courses. They offer both certification and professional courses.
