If you are concerned about the brand then definitely go for IIIT Allahabad. But, if you are clear with your choice of stream you can choose either of them. If you choose NIT Jamshedpur CSE it’s good and so is the same with IIIT Allahabad. 

I can share one of my cousin’s experiences, who passed out from NIT Jamshedpur.

• When he cracked the JEE with decent marks and got a chance to opt between these two colleges; he chose NIT Jamshedpur CSE over IIIT Allahabad comparing few factors like placements, exposure and money plays a vital role here.
• It is all up to you whether you want a tough competitive exposure or a light and cooperative environment.

Let me make it more clearly for you by categorizing engineering colleges:

This categorization might help you to decide. Also, skills do not depend on the branding of the building. It is something you learn eventually. Moreover, choose a college which has easy access to transport, shops, etc.

Also, if you see around there is infinite demand for highly skilled electronics engineers with impressive TopCOder and GitHub profiles. So, choosing either of the colleges won’t be a loss. But, if you have a specific interest in a particular stream like ECE in IIIT Allahabad or NIT Jamshedpur will prove a good choice too.

I have a few friends from both Thapar University and LNM-IIT Jaipur and based on the reviews I got from them, I will say LNMIIT Jaipur will be a better option. Here are the reasons why.

• Batch Strength: The total number of students at LNMIIT is less than 600, so the competition will be less in this college. 
• Placements: The placement scenario of this college is excellent. Top companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Oyo, Uber visit the campus for placements. Samsung is a mass recruiter in this college and has offered packages of more than 13 lakhs per annum. According to the recent placement highlights the average and highest CTC offered to the students are 12 LPA and 58 LPA respectively. Students also perform well in off-campus placements. 
• Workshops: There are various kinds of workshops such as GSoC, mun, and many cultural and technical fests organized in the college. 
• Reservations: There are no reservations or state quotas for admission. 
• Coding Culture: The campus has a good coding culture. 

Hence, LNMIIT is a very good place to pursue CSE, but a college is just a medium and it completely depends on how you can utilize your 4 years in the college. Your success will depend on your hard work and efforts. 

Considering different factors like placements, activities, infrastructure, Electrical and Electronics Engineering at NIT Surathkal will be a better option. The table below gives a brief level of comparison among ECE at RVCE and EE at NIT Surathkal.

Key Highlights - NIT Surathkal: 

• NIT Surathkal, being one of the top NITs, is a premier institute in India. In NITs, infrastructure and placements are always top-notch and even compared to IITs sometimes.
• The placement in Electrical and Electronics Engineering at NIT Surathkal is excellent. There are many core companies, IT-based companies, and even some PSUs coming for placement.
• The campus of NIT Surathkal has a serene environment, close to the shore, which is worth living for four years.
• In NITs, there is a lot of involvement in extracurricular activities and several technical and cultural events are organized inside the campus.

Considering the above points, it is evident that EE at NIT Surathkal is the better choice.

The aspiring candidate should not think about this right now. As we all know, the cutoff trends change every year. If the candidate wants an approximate idea, they need to add +15 marks to the previous year’s cutoff marks. The cutoff marks differ for home and other state students.

Here is the NIT Calicut JEE Main 2020 cutoff.

It is time to stop thinking about the cutoffs and minimum marks and focus on the preparation. One should always prepare for greater marks than the required cutoff.

ECE at Thapar University is more Hardware orientated. You may find yourself dealing with semiconductors for about 3 to 3.5 years. In addition to this, will be the onslaught of programming languages and a little portion of database and networking. 

In case you opt for the Computer Science program, you'll notice that it is purely software-oriented and has a lot more on programming languages, architectures, databases,, and networking.

ECE is the 2nd best option after CSE as its cut-off is just below it. This year, cut off score for ECE is as listed below:

As for placements, some well-known companies which visit for recruitment, are Texas Instruments, Whirlpool India, TCS, HP, Larsen and Toubro, ST Electronics, Philips, Mu Electronics India, and others. The placement rate is an amazing 99% for most of the departments. The highest package offered this year is 43 LPA and a total of 970 students got placed.
