How hard is it to get into Azim Premji University for BSc?

AJ
Arjun Jana Posted On : May 19th, 2023
Studied at Azim Premji University, Bengaluru (2016)

Azim Premji is a unique university in India that not only takes your academics into consideration but also your extracurricular background and achievements. Azim Premji University lays great emphasis on your performance in the aptitude test and interview round. The panelists desire to evaluate your passion for the program more than anything. They don’t want nerds but curious students who want to explore and devote their efforts fully to the course.

In reality, there is no clear-cut list of eligibility criteria that one must fulfill in order to get admission into the University. The only thing certain is that the university grants admission to talented students who are all-rounders and very zealous.

How is MSU Baroda for doing a BSc in Physics?

PT
Panth Thakkar Posted On : December 29th, 2022
B.a in Philosophy & History, The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda

The BSc course in Physics at MSU Baroda is at par with the top institutes like IISERs and IITs.

The infrastructure is the best in the whole of Gujarat state. The faculty for this course however is a bit lacking in comparison to other courses. Some are not skilled enough while some are not interested in teaching at all.

The laboratories are decked with decent equipments but during the First and Second years, they are almost of no use. The third year has a lot of lab sessions that should not be missed

The theoretical exams are pretty easy as most of the questions are based on what has been taught in the class.

MSU has 2 major libraries ( SSMT and SHMT) that have a wide range of books on almost every subject.

Research is mainly conducted in areas of condensed matter, Spectroscopy, X Ray diffraction and Nuclear Physics. Seminars and conferences are held throughout the year on campus. 

My opinion is that MSU is not much of a good choice for a BSc in Physics, especially if you are coming from a state other than Gujarat.

B.Sc. Economics from Ravenshaw University, Cuttack (2018)

Yes, you can get a seat in Physics Hons. in Ravenshaw University.  But may take a 2nd or 3rd list for your name to appear. 

Though they have changed the admission process, with an 80% in your CBSE board exams, it won't be hard for you to earn a seat.

The only chances you won't be getting a seat is if this year's average 12th marks have risen higher or none of the first list students are leaving Ravenshaw for other opportunities.

What should I opt for, mathematics and computing at IIT Dhanbad or computer science at IIT Palakkad?

AR
Aditi Roy Posted On : July 15th, 2023
lives in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India

Both institutes are relatively new and enjoy a similar status and brand value in the education world. IIT Palakkad is a new IIT while IIT Dhanbad although an old institution has recently been given the IIT title. So that leaves us with preference as the major factor in determining which institute is the right one for you.

MNC is a blend of both Math and Computing concepts and is often very rigorous. The mathematical proofs and theorems form a major part of the curriculum and CS comprises just a minor portion of it. Unless you are a math lover or are genuinely interested in it, this branch might be very challenging for you as the concepts are very advanced and nothing like what you studied before. CSE on the other hand is an evergreen branch with broad prospects. 

Moreover, the faculty of IIT Palakkad are from IITM also thus improving the quality of education offered. The infrastructure is excellent with great accommodation facilities.

How is the B.Sc. psychology department of Bethune College? Can I get admission if my rank is 40 and there are 13 seats?

RC
Reeti Chakraborty, Posted On : November 18th, 2021
M.Sc. in Psychology, Indian Institute of Psychology and Research (2019)

Yes, you can get admission in B.Sc Psychology at Bethune College as a number of students leave their seats for better colleges. You can then try to get a seat during the second, third or fourth cut-off list.

Bethune College has highly qualified faculty members but the classes are not conducted regularly. Sometimes they even fail to complete the syllabus. But if we ignore these flaws, they are quite brilliant as educators.

If you're joining this college, make sure you can study by yourself because you will not get constant attention from teachers. Bethune College will provide you with a better experience. In Bethune, you will develop both academically and holistically. Overall it is a great institution to be a part of.
