What will be better to opt among the new iits and ism for mechanical .my rank in JEE advance is 6629 and wanna get outstanding grades for branch change to CSE next year on.

Are core branches(Mechanical) in Top 3 NIT worth it ?

My rank in JEE Advanced 2022 is 1871. Should I go for IIT Guwahati ECE or IIT Kanpur Mechanical and try for a branch change to CS or Electrical Engineering? Is changing your branch very difficult?

Can i sacrifice board exams for jee mains as board exams are no where valueable as cuet and other will be seen for admission 

 

Is a student studying in IGCSE syllabus eligible for taking IOQP or IOQJS?

I have wasted my 11th? Is it still possible to get into my dream iit? Do i have to cover 11 th syllabus first? When and how can i finish it?
