Ignoring Branch Preferences
Students often overlook their true interests while selecting branches, leading to regret later.
Chasing Only Brand Names
Focusing solely on college reputation without considering placement records and actual faculty quality.
Not Analyzing Cutoffs

Last-Minute Option Form
Rushing through the CAP option form without proper intensive research and ordering logic.
Overlooking Placements
Not verifying the actual placement statistics and the company profiles visiting the campus.
Document Verification
Missing or incorrect category documents causing admission cancellation during physical verification.
Wrong Quota Selection
Incorrect category, TFWS, or minority quota selection resulting in permanently missed seat opportunities.
Hidden Fee Surprises
Not accounting for the total costs including development fees, hostel, transport, and unexpected charges.

Placement Records
Verify average package, highest package, and percentage placed
Faculty Quality
Research faculty qualifications, student-teacher ratio
Infrastructure
Labs, library, hostel facilities, and campus amenities
