I'm a first dropper and an IAT aspirant whose entire year was wasted due to various problems like laziness, overthinking and some unexpected problems also came to me this year, I'm thinking that this year there are high chances that I will not be able to make into IISER, but I have got enough in JEE to get core branch in a good State government engineering college of my state, but all I want to do is research, what should be better for me, preparing for IAT next year as a partial dropper(my parents won't allow me for full drop this year) or leaving IAT now and doing a fresh and good level preparing for 4 years and going directly for MS degree in IISER, if I didn't able to crack it also then I wouldn't have to do everything from zero level as I have all the notes and resources ready, I just need more practice, so I think it may be manageable in college, but still I need help in determining which of the option would be better

I have scored around 87.4%tile in jee mains(1.9lakh rank) and I'm thinking which college would be better among the two amd also which branch can I get according to my rank, I'm a male from general category, also I want to do higher studies after BTech and want to know who among the two has a better environment to prepare for GATE or IIT JAM and also better academics, also the campus life should be less toxic(no ragging or any other violence) and I want to get into research field so where there is better scope for research and also best hostel facilities among the two also I want good exposure

I'm a dropper who scored around 87.4%tile(1.9 lakh rank) in JEE mains and from General category and Odisha Homestate, what can I get with my score and rank, I'm mostly interested for EEE or ECE in VSSUT, can I get that, also this year Odisha government has increased reserved seats to 50% so will that make cutoff significantly high for general students? Please I need a honest answer on what can I I get
