Firstly after getting your JEE Mains Rank, a portal in name of JAC, Chandigarh is opened. You need to register yourself to that portal paying a fee of Rs 1200. After 1 or 2 days Choice filling is opened. You need to fill your choices for a preferred institute in Chandigarh (PEC is best in Chandigarh ) and opt your favorite branches. No restrictions on choice filling. When results are out if you get a seat you need to pay Rs. 40,000 to accept the seat. If you don't get the seat or your preferred seat you may participate in next rounds of counselling. There are 3 rounds of counselling. Once you're allotted a seat you need to reach the institute on a date declared on the website and confirm your seat, take your hostel and you become a part of institute then.

For improvement in teaching methods, they can go digital, like using smartboards, or use more practical teaching methods, or maybe just improve the way of teaching simply. Teaching methods here really need upgrades, mostly students here have to rely on youtube when exams come near.

Placement Experience:

The placements have been lowered by 10-20% recently, but they are getting better. You will get a job if you manage cgpa above 7 and are decent with your skills, but then don't dream for 20lpa + jobs, you need to work upon yourself in silence to get 25-50 lpa packages and they do happen in our colleges, highest package in electrical 2024-25 was 52 lpa and in ece cse they had 61 lpa. Companies start coming in 3rd year for internships, only 10% manage to get intern in 3rd year, companies like microsoft, atlassian, flipkart, mercedes, jp morgan etc. they do come. Placement perecentage is like 75-80% in electrical and it is very low in civil (around 40-50%), in cse it is like 90% or even higher. My plan is to get an intern asap. (Maybe in 2nd year theough offcampus)
