If you have work ex then it will be advantage..(but if u dont have then still no issues..)
Have u applied to SICSR (Symbiosis Institute of Computer Studies and Research)??
@Manojp24 Students from all backgrounds can apply for SCIT. We have students from commerce background too in our batch. All you need to have is an inclination and interest towards Information Technology.
Key to GDPI of SCIT or any other college is simple, keep your self calm and convey your ideas in the GD and strong basics of your engineering/IT & maybe related to workex should be enough for PI.
@sushantp777 There is no Graduation % Cut off as such for SCIT, it will evaluated during your GDPI only. Work Experience & Extra Curriculars are considered during Personal Interview Stage.
