Which option is good to opt after 10th class for pursuing mechanical engineering. Diploma or PUC?

If you are planning to be a graduate mechanical engineering then you are advised to study PCM at 10+2 stage and appear for engineering entrance examinations. You can also join Diploma in mechanical engineering after 10th and then seek lateral entry admission in B.Tech mechanical engineering. IITs & NITs do not have lateral entry admissions provision therefore if you take Diploma route for mechanical engineering, you will miss options of doing mechanical engineering in best engineering colleges of India.
