Many JEE toppers also opt for CS (Computer Science) course due to their passion. This field attracts them because of its problem solving nature and creative ability.
They find themselves fascinated by the complex reasoning, problem-solving nature, and inherent creative potential within the field. From designing new algorithms to creating new user-friendly interfaces, the CS branch gives students the opportunity to unleash their creativity while tackling real-world challenges.
Last year's JEE Main topper Malay Kedia said that today computers are present in every walk of life, be it emerging technologies like AI or robotics or any other field of research.

The subject of Computer Science gives more opportunities for innovation to the students. The advent of AI has created more possibilities in this. CS is not just about mastering complex algorithms, this branch also encompasses valuable transferable skills that are in high demand in the job market. It also includes things like critical thinking, problem solving attitude, analytical reasoning, strong communication skills.
Not only this, CS extends far beyond the traditional software development field. From healthcare, finance, transportation and even education, computer science has reached everywhere.
