Both are really good institutions, but I had to choose, so I would lean towards Lovely Professional University – Computer Science (CSE)

• More job opportunities (especially IT/software sector)
• High chances of placement if you learn coding + skills
• Big campus, lots of exposure, competitions, internships

There isn't one magic book for LEET that guarantees admission to universities like DTU or Thapar. I've seen most students do well by first covering their Diploma basics properly and then practicing previous year papers as much as possible.

For Mathematics, books like R.S. Aggarwal are quite common, a

The cutoff changes a bit every year, so there isn't one fixed number. From what I've seen, a CAT percentile around 60–65 usually keeps you in a decent position, while for NMAT, a score close to 190–195 is often considered competitive. But admission isn't based on the test score alone.

Thapar also loo

Yes, you can get CS at Thapar, but it depends on your entrance score and the cutoff for that year. CS is one of the most competitive branches, so the required rank is usually quite high.

I've seen students keep backup options like COE, ENC, or ECE as well because cutoffs can change every year. If you

If your main goal is placements and working in the tech industry, I would lean towards COE at Thapar. I’ve seen a lot of students from COE get good opportunities, but you still need to work on coding and skills because competition is there.

DTU Civil is also a good option, but I wouldn’t choose it ju

As far as I know, you don't need a NEET score for B.Tech Biotechnology at Thapar. Admission is generally based on JEE Main (and the eligibility criteria announced for that year).

I've seen a few students get confused because it's biotechnology, but for the B.Tech program, NEET usually isn't the route

hi,

If you're already GATE qualified and working at HCL, I'd compare Thapar with the other colleges you're getting through GATE before deciding.

Thapar has a good reputation, decent faculty and industry exposure. One of my colleague's friends did his PG there while coming from an industry background and

Yes, admission in  Thapar is based on 12th marks for some seats/rounds, but branch allotment depends on your percentage and the available seats. Top branches like COE/CSE usually get filled through JEE-based admissions first.
As far as management quota goes, officially Thapar doesn't advertise a sepa

I wouldn't switch just because someone says one branch is better than the other. It really depends on what interests you and what kind of career you're aiming for.

Personally, I'd stay in Electrical unless I had a strong interest in Mechanical. A senior I know started in Electrical and later found pl
