i feel like im meant for bigger things but i js can't get out of the cycle of "i have it in me" to realising maybe i dont actually have the ability or the skills like the people i aspire to be. i just need to stop consuming and start creating but then what do i really bring to the table? im chasing a hollow dream of just becoming something without knowing what im good at, time's running and there's not a lot of things im really good at. i really hope i find them till then im stuck in the constant loop of feeling like a wasted potential, trying and failing the actionable steps, and hating myself for not having it in me

I can get admission in both Computer Science (CS) and Information Technology (IT), but the donation for IT is about half of what I'd have to pay for CS.

From what I've heard, the job opportunities after CS and IT are mostly the same, and the syllabus is also quite similar until the 4th semester. The branch-specific subjects only start becoming significant after that.

However, a friend told me that colleges in Nashik have a poor reputation for IT placements, and that IT placements can sometimes be even worse than Mechanical. I'm not sure how accurate that is, so I'm only going by what he said.

I'd really appreciate some guidance from seniors or anyone familiar with the situation.

​

Is paying double the donation for CS worth it?

​

Will the extra cost be justified in terms of placements and opportunities, or would it be better to choose IT and save the money?

I’ve shortlisted a few engineering colleges in Nashik:

K.K. Wagh Institute of Engineering Education & Research (KKW)

MVP KBT College of Engineering (KBT)

MET Institute of Engineering (MET)

(open to other suggestions as well)

The problem is I’m getting completely mixed opinions from friends, and it’s honestly confusing.

I’d really appreciate if any seniors or passouts from these colleges could guide me on how I should prioritize them — especially based on:

Placements (actual reality, not brochure stats)

Faculty and academics

Campus life and crowd

Overall exposure and opportunities

Also being realistic — I don’t have a 99 percentile, so I’ll most likely take admission through management quota. Because of that, I might not get my top preference depending on availability.

So it would really help if someone could give a priority list (best to worst) among these colleges based on real experience.

Any honest advice would be appreciated.
