Most of the companies ask for a minimum of 60% aggregate from SSLC/10th. We don’t have much say in a company’s shortlisting criteria. Still, there are instances of students with lower marks getting placed. It depends on several factors, like the candidate’s skills, interview performance and overall industry requirements.
We only have Circuit, Layout and Characterization courses.
We only have online classes. We ensure our online classes are much more effective than offline classes.
