Choosing between computer science engineering (cse) at JSS, AKG Or kIET depends upon several factors:
JSS academy of technical education: known for good academic performance and infrastructure and have decent placement records. Average package around rupees 4-6 LPA with companies like TCS, wipro etc. Active campus life with various clubs and activities.
Ajay kumar garg engineering college : praised for its faculty and academic rigor . Strong placement records and industry connection. Average package around rupees 4-5 LPA with companies like Amazon, infosys etc. Excellent infrastructure with modern labs and libraries. Vibrant campus life.
Krishna institute of engineering and technology: consistently ranked among the top private engineering colleges. Average package around rupees 5-6 LPA , with top recruiters including Microsoft, IBM etc. State of the art infrastructure with all student facilities. Dynamic campus environment with a range of activities.
In my opinion KIET is better because it has a very strong alumni network. But you should take your decision considering other points that I mentioned above as well.
Hy,
When comparing JSS Academy of Technical Education (JSS), AKG Engineering College (AKG), and KIET Group of Institutions (KIET) for a Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) program, several factors should be considered to determine which is better overall. Here’s a detailed comparison based on key aspects:
JSS Academy of Technical Education (JSS):
AKG Engineering College (AKG):
KIET Group of Institutions (KIET):

KIET Group of Institutions (KIET) tends to be highly rated overall due to its strong infrastructure, excellent placement record, and extensive industry connections.
JSS Academy of Technical Education (JSS) is also a strong contender with its modern facilities and good academic reputation, particularly if you value proximity to Delhi.
AKG Engineering College (AKG) offers solid education and decent facilities but might lag slightly behind KIET and JSS in terms of placement and infrastructure.

Hello,
As you secured this rank in jee mains ,i would suggest you to go for any home state colleges which is not through josaa because then there will be greater chances of getting non core branches for you.
Although some conditions vary the cut offs because of the number of candidates appearing in the examination,choices filled by the candidates number of vacant seats in college, previous years cut offs and toughness level of the paper.
