Are DU college fees really cheap?
There would have been no disagreement if it was stated that "excluding 1 college" DU's fee is considerably less after scrolling through the majority of the answers. On average, the North Campus colleges charge annual fees between 14 and 19 thousand a month, with the exception of St. Stephen's, which charges between 40 and 50 thousand a month. In contrast, this charge is considered too expensive for a college that is 90% or more government-funded. While a hostel student at Hindu or Miranda will need to budget 60–70k per year, attending Stephen's would cost you an astounding INR 1.4–1.6 lakhs per year (Note: it is called a residence, not a hostel in Stephen's).
This overpriced fee is exploitation, but once a student is enrolled in this college, they will actually understand the distinction between a residence and a hostel. However, the cost, which is practically online with a private college, is definitely unexpected.
The main cause of this is because the college only admits 300–400 students per academic year, totalling 1.2k students throughout all years and courses, hence the UGC funding to the college is proportionately lower. One can understand the kind of contrast it shows, both in fee collecting and the caliber of students, compared to other colleges with a crowd of 5–6k students.
Where can I find some of MU OET's (manipal university entrance exam) previous year question papers?
Arihant publishes a book that contains the previous years’ questions of MU OET. Along with the previous year's questions, there are also some sample papers. You can follow this book for your preparation. It is quite helpful and offers insights into the examination pattern.
As MU OET is an online examination, the university doesn’t usually provide the question papers.

Which exam is much tougher IBPS PO or IBPS SO?
The answer to this question is which exam is much tougher IBPS PO or IBPS SO, vary from candidate to candidate and even there are factors like competition, specialization and knowledge which decides the success in both exams. Any graduate candidate can apply for IBPS PO, but for IBPS SO a candidate needs to have specialization in particular fields for which they are applying.
There are a huge number of applications received every year for IBPS PO and generally a candidate is placed in fields like Planning, Credit, Operations,Administration etc after clearing IBPS Po. Whereas IBPS SO candidates after clearing the exams posted in specific fields like IT officer for IT Department, Agriculture Officer for Rural Department and vice versa.
The reason behind higher competition in IBPS PO is due to these reasons -
- In order to get the post of SO a candidate compulsorily need to have a specific Educational degree in fields like IT, MBA or Agriculture etc. due to specific requirements of this particular job. But for PO only graduation is required which simply increases competition in PO and attracts more candidates to apply for the same.
- There are a limited number of seats for SO which is upto higher levels only. While for IBPS PO the opportunities are infinite in different sectors which includes banking as well. That’s why candidates prefer to clear IBPS PO and explore the endless career opportunities.
So both IBPS SO and IBPS PO are exams of the same level, the only difference is the candidate's interest in it. Full dedication, hard work, right guidance and better preparation can help candidates clear both the exams with ease be it IBPS PO or IBPS SO.

What is the passing criteria for B.Com (H) year 1 SOl DU?
SOl DU’s first year exam of B.com isn't as tough as you might think. A few criteria for passing the first-semester exam are as follows:
To clear your first year, you need to score at least 33% in every subject, out of a total of 75 marks. Sounds doable, As long as you hit that 33% mark in each subject, you're on track to successfully move forward in your academic journey.
Now, let's talk about the "what if." If, unfortunately, you score below 33% in any one subject, don't worry too much. You won't have to repeat the entire year. Instead, you'll need to give an ER (Essential Repeat) the following year, which is your second year.
Here's the trick - try to aim for an ER in as few subjects as possible. If you have to give an ER for more than four subjects, then, yes, you'll have to repeat the entire year.
So, as you dive into your first year, remember that success is within your reach. Stay focused, study hard, and aim for those 33% scores.
