Is it worth doing a BA in economics honors from an average college of DU?

PA
Pragya Agrawal Posted On : October 10th, 2022
B.A. in Economics, University of Delhi

Many people believe that college isn't necessary for success in life. No, it does not. But those people are simply not telling the whole story. The amount of struggle you will face without a college degree is 20 times greater than what you will face with a good college degree. Working hard today will make your life easier tomorrow.

Any average college isn't worth it unless you're in dire financial need or your family's mental state is unbearable. The hype surrounding DU is unreal. All of those 52 lakh eco packages are overpriced. 5 people out of lakhs may get it; the rest must compete for a 5 lakh job.

You should never accept anything less than what you deserve. You can apply for Jamia to enter. You may apply for abroad studies. You can get a fellowship and take a year off. Do whatever it takes to stand out from the crowd and make a better career for yourself.

How was your first day at LNCT Bhopal?

AP
Ankit Pandey Posted On : September 20th, 2021
B.E. from Lakshmi Narain College of Technology, Bhopal (2018)

According to one of my friend's personal experiences, the first day at LNCT Bhopal was not that great. She could only see everyone in white as soon as she boarded the bus and could not even recognize some of her schoolmates who have taken admission to the college. 

Then all the students were directed to their respective rooms and guided by the faculty regarding all the rules to be followed inside the college. Then the students were taken to their buses.

My friend was a bit disappointed by the fact that she could not make some friends in long 6 hours. But in a few months, she finally made some friends and now she is really enjoying her time at the institute.

The first day at the institute can be daunting, but with time it certainly gets better.

ML
Mahesh Luthra Posted On : November 10th, 2022
Studied at Maharashtra Institute of Technology

Maharashtra Institute of Technology is a private university affiliated with the University of Pune.

Placements are average. The majority of people are placed in companies such as Infosys and Accenture. Companies such as Delloite and Microsoft come to campus, but they only hire a small number of students and offer them competitive salaries.

Very good opportunities for higher education abroad. When it comes to higher education, is affiliated with Unipune has its advantages. Furthermore, the college has a brand value associated with it.

You must be completely dedicated to your hobby or interest in order to pursue it. The cultural team is fantastic for people who are willing to work day and night. The same is true for other activities such as Supra and SAE Baja. The MIT Pune Kothrud campus has a reputation for consistently outstanding performance in national and international Robocon competitions.

The crowd is diverse. Although only 15% of the seats are allocated to students from outside Maharashtra, there are students from all over the country with diverse interests and hobbies.

You can't complain about the infrastructure. Enough for your requirements.
