The chemical industry is among the most diversified industrial sectors and includes basic chemicals and its products, petrochemicals, fertilizers, paints, gases, pharmaceuticals, dyes, etc. The sector covers over 70,000 commercial products, and provides the feed-stock to many downstream industries such as finished drugs, dye-stuffs, paper, synthetic rubber, plastics, polyester, paints, pesticides, fertilizers and detergents. Over the years, the industry has been evolving with a shift towards product innovation, brand building and environmental friendliness. Besides, customer focus is gaining significance in the industry. And now with the increase in importance to sectors such as environment, renewable, green energy - Chemical Engineering is gaining more and more importance. But placements, especially in the chemical sector depend upon what your level of interest in a particular field is. I believe that being the jack of all trades does not work here. So pick anything specific that interests you and target that particular sub-field be it as a student or even professionally.

There are 3 faculty members in JU- engineering, science and arts. If you want to apply for BE or B.Tech, you may apply for WBJEE first which is totally an online process. Next, if you want to join either B.Sc or BA (UG) programme, then it can be possible from the official website of JU (https://www.jaduniv.edu.in).
In this method, it will be better for you to apply from any professional (cyber cafe and all). For WBJEE your rank (general or reservation) is the main criteria. Next, for Bachelors the marks of the Higher Secondary Examination are the main criteria. Here, you need the best aggregate. Example- If you want to go for B.Sc. Hons. At Mathematics, then the aggregate will - (marks of maths in HS 2) + (marks of physics+marks of chemistry in HS)
For further information, you can join the official JU group for admission named online helpdesk for Jadavpur University admissions-SFI.

The unique nature of Amrita's management quota is that without writing the entrance (or at least enrolling for the entrance) you cannot attend the meeting for management quota. If you don't have the admit card of the entrance exam when you visit the varsity, Let gods be with you. You just can't get past the security at the entrance of the campus and believe me how famous and influential you are, Amrita security force will humble you with their sternness and ignorance. There was always a rumor that this was a way to alter your ranks after the payment and make the student's admission look like a merit entry. But there was never a proof for this allegation. Another added feature in management quota is that the fee structure is common for everyone in the batch except a few who receives scholarship from the varsity.

Hi Latha,
The marks scored in the JEE Advanced depend on the difficulty level of the paper and the marking pattern. Everybody expects the questions to be tough, JEE Advanced is never a cakewalk. However, the marking pattern adds further complexities to an already tough paper. However, it can be safely said that if a general category student has an AIR of approximately 5000 he/she can get one of the IITs because the general category seats are 50% of the total number of 10k seats. At the same time, there are other institutes that use the JEE Advanced scores too. I would suggest that you check out:
