The dilemma of choosing an engineering branch is one of the most common situations for students who just cleared their 12th boards. Now coming to the question, there are two pieces of advice to be followed in this case.

1. Firstly, it’s high time to sort out your preferences. You need to take time and decide where you are inclined towards. As both of them are totally opposites of each other, it is very crucial to follow your interest as you will be dedicating 4 years of your life. Most importantly, it will decide your career too.
2. Secondly, if you are okay with any of these and the only thing that matters to you is the college name, then go for BITS Goa. There you can also enquire and opt for the dual degree option. Despite one extra year, it will prove worth it. Also, in other parameters like brand name, faculty, etc, BITS Goa outshines RV College any day.

Overall, it's best recommended to follow your interest first as these will be career deciding years of your life, and you don’t wanna regret it later. After all, your hard work and passion are what determines your success.

It is difficult to compare two institutes for different branches. You should choose the branch you are interested in and the college according to that.

Amity University is a better choice among the two institutes, considering the infrastructure and the overall development of students in the institute. Amity University Gwalior will be a better choice for students because -

• It is ranked the top private university of Madhya Pradesh.
• They bring 100% placement and not just in papers.
• They have a world-class infrastructure with an Auditorium, moot court, studios which will provide complete practical exposure.
• Helpful and cooperative faculty members help students all along with their career at Amity.

This totally depends on your choices and interests. As the college administration is unknown towards your logical mind in doing computer programming all day or managing a manufacturing unit.

If you choose Mechanical Engineering as a branch, it is far better than Computers, where the second one is more subjective than the first one. For this reason, you can easily become an expert in computer programming, and it is not so easy to become a mechanical engineering expert.

But if you are interested in mechanical, or want to appear in IES after completing the BTech degree, then studying mechanical from MNNIT will be the best decision for you.

Besides, if you want to take Computer Science to be settled in top MNCs, studying CSE in PEC will be the best decision for you, rather than studying it in NIT K.
