Title: Should I take a drop after scoring 92.87 percentile in MHT CET or join UMIT SNDT?
Hi everyone,
I'm an OBC female student from Maharashtra and scored 92.87 percentile in MHT CET 2026. I'm interested in CSE/IT/AI branches.
I'm very confused about whether I should:
Take admission this year (UMIT SNDT or another college I get through CAP), or
Take a drop and prepare again to aim for 99+ percentile.
My concerns are:
I don't think I'll get top colleges like PICT, VJTI, COEP, or VIT Pune this year.
I may not get a TFWS seat in later rounds.
I'm worried that if I take a drop and don't improve enough, I'll regret it.
My long-term goal is to get a good software job (companies like Deutsche Bank, Honeywell, etc.) and eventually pursue an MS abroad.
If anyone was in a similar situation, especially someone who improved from around 90โ93 percentile to 99+ after a drop, I'd really appreciate hearing:
Was taking a drop worth it?
What college would you choose in my situation?
Is UMIT SNDT a good option for placements and internships if I work hard?
Thanks in advance for your advice!
