If you are seeking admission in an engineering college, then I would like to suggest SRM-Chennai as first preference. It is one of the reputed private colleges. It is best in every context whether it is the environment, placement, fest, exposure or anything else. If we compare LPU with SRM then SRM-Chennai is better. Now, it's up to you as you have to clear its entrance exam. Good luck.
