Which one is better, dropping a year for the BITSAT and JEE, or joining universities such as LPU or Amity?
Drop a year only if you feel like you couldn’t do justice to your preparation and you can score better next time. Otherwise joining LPU or Amity will be the better option. These are reputed private institutes and offer decent placements to students. According to LPU placements of 2022 students received the highest CTC of INR 64.5 LPA. Amity has a good placement record for engineering branches as well. The average CTC received by most of the engineering branches is INR 6 LPA.
You can join LPU or Amity and prepare for JEE and BITSAT along with it as well. That way you won’t have to drop a year.

Every candidate has their own perspectives and reasons for dropping a year or opting for a degree in any institute. It entirely depends upon your thoughts and decisions, and what you actually want from your career. The points mentioned below can be considered as a set of guidelines that would help to choose the right path.
- There are several choices which you can make in case of admission. You can prefer a good renowned government college and take any available stream in it, or a good private college (BITS, Thapar, etc) and choose your favorite stream. Considering the fact that you are comfortable with the high fees of the private institutes.
- Having an educational gap (drop) of one year is not a bad thing for a future career. Most candidates get to learn a lot of things from the self-available time, even some have genuine reasons for the drop. So, if you are extremely passionate about a stream, it is absolutely all-right to drop for a year.
- Check for the 50% quota for insiders in your home state NIT. If present, it will increase the chances of getting some stream in it.
- Usually, it is considered that the stream matters much less. What matters is the college name tag.
- There are several other institutes like Punjab University, UIET, etc which provide good infrastructure and opportunities. JAC is a committee for counseling in some good institutes in Chandigarh.
These are some of the basics tips that would help you in the decision-making process.
