    Hi Vyom, selecting a branch for B.Tech is not an easy task, but if you're confused between CSE, Electrical and Civil, then you should clear it by your subject interests in class 12th.
    If C+ interests you more than physics, then you should go for CSE else, you can go for either electrical or mechanical.
    And, if you wish to take admission as per career prospects, then I would recommend you to go for CSE as Computer Science Engineers get more handsome packages than any other branch.
    My friend who graduated from University of Technology and Management got placed with Rs.16 Lakhs p.a. So, I think that's a pretty good package for start. Rest c

    Dear Vyom, Ranking the branches in the order of their scope as CSE, ECE, Mechanical, Civil. Rest it also depends on the University from which you pursue your programme. As per my experience, LPU is the best engineering college in India. LPU becomes the best place to pursue an engineering degree with highly qualified teaching staff, best laboratories, and modern technologies. LPU provides abundant opportunities for students to think out of the box.

    I think, all the branches of engineering are interesting if you take interest in it. It is a bit easy to get placements in IT branches as compared to core branches. If you really like the field work then, I would suggest that Civil is the best, but if you are looking for a job easily then CSE will be good. As I said all are different and it totally depends on you that which field you like.

    Vyom don't go with which stream is better. Go with what you want do after studying B.Tech. You may take following considerations. If you like computer, want to build crazy application or something related to software go with Computer Science engineering. If you like playing with machines/motors or electricity go ahead with Mechanical engineering. Or Electrical engineering. If you are India, after studying Electronics and communication engineering most of the students gets job/work in IT companies. Only few percent gets chance in electronics companies. So I would suggest, better to study Computer Science engineering. If you want to sail
