Q: I write from the state of Maharashtra in India. I have a choice of studying for a Bachelor of Engineering degree in Electronics and Telecommunication in one of two colleges. The first is located 5 minutes away from my house. The second is Sardar Patel College of Engineering (SPCE), one of the best in Mumbai. However, if I go to SPCE, I will need one hour daily to commute there.
Once I earn the B.E. degree I want to do graduate-level work in aerospace engineering or work in the aerospace industry (either in India or in North America).
Which of the two colleges should I choose?

Q: I am an undergraduate neuroscience major and I recently became interested in engineering.
I think that I have the science skills necessary to go into the field, but I wonder if it is possible to pursue engineering after graduation or if it is much too late to begin graduate school study.
I completed pre-med courses, but realized that medicine is not for me and that I like the creativity that the field of engineering offers.

Q: I am a student enrolled in Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) Degree Program in India. I would like to get a great job in the future. However, my 12th standard (grade) percentage marks/grades are not very good. What should I do?
The short answer is: do not worry about your 12th standard marks. Focus on your Bachelor of Engineering studies.
Most engineering colleges and universities in India offer on-campus placement opportunities to students. Representatives from various companies and organizations interview students on campus for full time jobs. The participating companies usually use a qualifying cut off threshold, based on the aggregate percentage (marks/grades) of the Bachelor of Engineering degree program.
As long as you have a good Bachelor of Engineering aggregate percentage, 12th standard percentage (marks/grades) should not really matter. They are seldom asked about and they do not hinder the chances of procuring a good job after completing the Bachelor of Engineering Degree Program.
