The verdict

Good fit

MCC brings serious credibility with its NIRF #14 rank and NAAC A++ grade. An 85% placement rate and ₹8 LPA average CTC with recruiters like Amazon, Google, and Deloitte make this a solid launchpad. You’ll need to crack the MCC Entrance Test and have a Math/Stats/CS background, but if you check those boxes, this is a strong move.
