I had no idea which field to choose after 12th. The psychometric test was eye-opening — it showed I'm naturally wired for data and analytics. Now I'm in a CSE program at PES University and loving every bit.

Dheeraj sir didn't just help with admission — he helped me discover myself. I thought I wanted to do medicine, but the assessment revealed design was my true calling. Now I'm at Symbiosis for B.Des!

As parents, we were lost navigating management quota. DegreePlanner explained everything transparently — fees, process, documentation. Our son got into RV College and the whole process was clean and stress-free.

The scholarship finder feature alone saved my family ₹2 lakhs. Combined with the management quota admission at NMIMS, this was the smartest investment we ever made in our daughter's future.

Common Questions

Everything You Want to Know

What is career counseling and why does my child need it?

Career counseling helps students understand their strengths, interests, and aptitude to make informed decisions about their degree and future career. In India, most students choose courses based on peer/parent pressure rather than self-awareness — this often leads to poor fit, dropouts, and career dissatisfaction. A proper assessment prevents costly wrong turns.

What is the psychometric test and how accurate is it?

We use internationally validated psychometric tools (MBTI-based, Holland's RIASEC, and aptitude batteries) to assess personality, interests, and cognitive strengths. These tests have 85–92% accuracy in predicting career satisfaction. Results are interpreted by certified counselors — not just a report handed to you.

Is management quota admission legal?

Yes. Management quota is a government-recognized category allowing private colleges to fill 15–25% of seats through their own process. It is fully legal under UGC and state education guidelines. We only facilitate official, documented admissions — no cash donations or illegal payments of any kind.

How much does DegreePlanner's counseling cost?

Your first consultation is completely free. If you proceed with our full guidance package (career assessment + college shortlisting + admission support), fees vary based on the scope of service. All fees are disclosed transparently upfront — no hidden charges. Admission service fees depend on the college and course.

My child scored low marks. Can you still help?

Absolutely. Marks are just one dimension. We work with students across all score bands. Management quota seats in many top colleges have relaxed score criteria. More importantly, our career counseling helps identify courses where the student's natural aptitude and passion lie — often these don't require the highest marks.

Do you help with study abroad applications?

Yes. Our study abroad team specializes in university shortlisting, SOP writing, LOR guidance, visa applications, and scholarship hunting for USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and Germany. We have successfully placed students in top global universities.

How quickly can you secure an admission?

For management quota seats at our partner colleges, we typically confirm admission within 48–72 hours of completing documentation. For regular admissions and study abroad, timelines vary by institution and deadlines — we always work as fast as possible and keep you informed every step.

Can students from any state use your service?

Yes! We work with students from all across India — UP, Bihar, Delhi, Rajasthan, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and beyond. We help with relocation guidance, hostel arrangements, and everything a student needs when moving to a new city for college.
