IIT coaching has now become an untouched part of all the engineering aspirants, though the students move to Kota and other big cities for coaching due to lack of the information. These are the coaching centres one should know about. Coaching classes for JEE in Haryana are:
1. Akash Educational Services
2. Bansal Tutorials
3. A.K Vidyamandir
4. Brilliant Tutorials
5. Ace Tutorials
6. MIIT-JEE
7. Everonn Education Ltd.
8 FIITJEE
These are the well-known coaching centres though there are many local coaching centres in different cities of Haryana which also produce good results.
According to me, if a person is unable to go to any of the above coaching classes then he or she may join a local coaching class and solve the practise materials of any reputed institute. Also, thorough theory and full dedication may lead you to the desired level.
Also, a reputed coaching called Super 30 which is managed by Anand Kumar in Bihar provides free education and accommodation facilities is a good option. It provides 100 percent results.
One may join that too if able to shift comfortably.
Thank you.
Hope it helped.

Samundra Institute of Maritime Studies is a good institute as it insures hundred percent placement to it cadets and works hard to achieve it at the end of placement sessions. The institute has its own executive shipment management system which provides training to cadets on ships. It is the only institute that provides training to students on a ship which is a plus point for the institute as the other institutes have multiple people of with different nationalities on the board. Though it is a good institute for Naval Engineering, the best institute considered for the same is Tolani Maritime Maritime Institute. Also, the institute provides you with the private travel facility and send the crew in its own private vessel. Here the average placements vary from 6 to 8 LPA and highest being 12 LPA. Although the fee is huge which is obvious for the Naval engineering, one can secure a good placement and grab ample placement opportunities.
Thank you.
