It’s not possible to estimate how many questions you need to answer correctly or how many marks you will need to get a shortlist. BHU cutoff depends on the competition of that year.
Both Ramjas and Sri Venkateswara are reputed colleges under Delhi University. According to the reviews online Sri Venkateswara (SVC) is better when it comes to commerce than Ramjas.
SVC has better placements, faculty and overall exposure. Both colleges are very much involved in cultural activities and extracurriculars. If you are willing to opt for a science course then go for Ramjas, Commerce is better in SVC. They both have no strict rules to maintain a 75% attendance, you should just have enough to sit for the internals.
Students who are unable to sit in the internals due to their involvement in clubs and societies have to submit an ECA to their teacher. This is possible in both the colleges.
Ramjas has a better infrastructure than SVC. But all these do not matter much, if you are dedicated to your studies, you can succeed in any college. Choose the college nearer to you, the north or the south campus.
I have a few friends from Lucknow University and according to them, for the entrance examination, it focuses more on the syllabus of your 11th and 12th commerce subjects mainly. There will be a total of 75 questions based on these subjects.
The topics covered in the examination are as follows.
Further, Current Affairs is not a particular subject but is all about what is happening all around you. It is just a basic knowledge of what is happening in the world around us and this constitutes about 25 questions of the test.
You can acquire books and study materials online for the LU entrance examination.
Motilal Nehru is a morning college whereas Shaheed Bhagat Singh College (SBSC) has both morning and evening colleges.
At first, you will have to decide your preference for the timings. One of my friends graduated from Motilal Nehru College (Day) and has had flatmates studying in evening colleges. According to him their routines were completely different. So, the choice completely depends on you and which time of the day you are comfortable with.
Motilal Nehru has a competent faculty, with spacious new buildings, library and good placements. They also have active societies such as Enactus, DebSoc, Archon Leadership Cell and others.
Another benefit of being in Motilal is that it is located in the South Campus and is always crowded. This crowd attracts the building of proper hangout places. Its Satya Niketan market offers good places to eat and good coaching centers.
On the other hand SBSC (E) would only give you the benefit because of its past reputation, good sports infrastructure and its proximity to Select City Walk.
Therefore make an informed decision as this will be motivated towards the shaping of your career.

Theory - 35 out of 100; 18 out of 50
Assignments - more than 50% ( 50 out of 100)
If you get 35 marks in theory out of 100, this means you have passed in that particular subject and don't have to appear for exams again.
But if you score below 50 in assignments, then you have failed and will have to resubmit your assignments.

Both these colleges are good options for pursuing a BCom honors. The quality of academics offered at these colleges is decent. However, being situated at the North campus, Daulat Ram has an edge over Gargi College. The faculty base is great at DRC. You will get decent exposure along with the advantages of being on the north campus.
Both the colleges are well known and the degrees that you want to pursue are in high demand. However, it depends on your interests and preferences. A BBA degree from Christ University focuses on the various aspects of marketing, business administration, management, operation and human resources. The B.Com degree from Delhi University focuses on finance, commerce, economics and accounting. Another factor that you must consider is the location of the college and which is more comfortable for you. Both the colleges have active campus life but Christ is the winner because of the multiple events, fests and club activities that take place every day. The placements for both the courses are satisfactory. So, give it a thought and choose the degree that you are passionate about.
According to the reviews online, if you are pursuing a very demanding professional course, rethink about joining Mithibai college.
If you are pursuing B.Com, it is suggested that you go for other options like HR and NM. The teaching faculty is better than other colleges, so that is a plus. Lastly, it completely depends on your choice to pursue B.Com here or not.
