Dear Pankaj, Being Alumni of LPU, I would like to answer this question. At LPU, Admission in any programme depends on qualifying the Eligibility criteria for that programme. So, as per the official website of LPU, the Eligibility Criteria (Qualifying Exam) is defined as - Pass with 60% aggregate marks in 10+2 (with Physics Mathematics and English or equivalent, subject to qualifying LPU NEST. LPU NEST is National Entrance and Scholarship Test for admission to various programmes in Lovely Professional University. This test forms the basis of Eligibility and Scholarship for most of the programmes and for some of the programmes test is applicable only for scholarship. LPU NEST serves both the purposes. Also, if you have qualified LPU NEST for Eligibility purpose, you can also improve your score for Scholarship purpose as well. For qualifying the LPU NEST for Eligibility purpose, around 40% marks are required but for Scholarship purpose, cut-offs are required to be qualified for LPU NEST. So, qualifying the same, you can proceed for Admissions. Admissions in LPU have started for most of the programmes. LPU is currently inviting applications for B.Tech in various streams, so you can apply from their website. As per the official website, Last Date of submission of Application for most of the programmes for LPU NEST is 30th April 2021. So, qualifying the Eligibility criteria and by participating in the online counselling schedule as mentioned on the website based on merit seat will be allocated to you and you can proceed for Admissions in any programme in LPU.

Scope- Both branches are core branch of engineering. So, these can't be differing on the basis of scope. Scope is good in both branches. Package - Mechanical is known as evergreen branch of engineering. When it comes to packages, which never goes out of demand. But, CS is also good in packages, because we live in a world where information technology runs in our veins so there is no chance of not getting a good package. I don't want to confuse you, but at last it depends on you that if you like to work on computer, and was good in IP subject and understanding how computer works then go for CS. But, if you like to play with tools in garage and making things, then go for mechanical. But, if now also you don't know which branch you should choose then in my personal opinion you will do equally good in both the branches. Then, just look for in which branch you will get a better college. Sorry for the long post. Hope it was useful.
