@WilliamR.Ebenezer Yes prolly.. Cuz he said this very categorically that integrated msc from iits is not even recognised much.. As for your dilemma,I am gonna give you the same advice I got from him: first,clear your head about what you really wanna pursue,pure science or engineering without worrying about college.. Now,look at your options and decide for the best college available for your preferred degree(which he said,was top iisers than iits) without leaving yourself to a chance of gambling
