studied at Jawaharlal Nehru University

Self-study is the best tool to score well in examinations. Since JNU is the dream institute for most students, the competition level is very high, but you can crack it with strong determination and dedication. If you are good at the basics and theories that you studied at graduation, then half the job is done. Try to solve the previous year's question paper, which is available on the official website of JNU. 

Some important topics are listed below

  • Macroeconomics
  • Microeconomics
  • Econometrics
  • International Trade
  • Statistics
  • National Accounting
  • Profit Maximization

Strive hard and give your best.

IGNOU: Has anyone over here done a MAPC master's in psychology or a Ph.D. in psychology via distance learning?

RY
Raj Yadav Posted On : October 18th, 2022
Studied Psychology at IGNOU

It is a well-planned course that includes a required internship, research project, and term-end examinations (TEE). According to some practicing psychologists, the study material appears to be on par with regular university courses.

The main difference is that you can complete the course over a 5-year period, with exams held twice a year. As a result, you can write exams for 2-3 subjects each term and finish the course while working full-time.

IGNOU has two points of contact for you:

  • SC Study Centre: This is where lectures and practicals will be held, assignments must be submitted, and course-related questions will be answered. There are two in Mumbai: Hansraj College in Khar and Seva Sadan in Ulhasnagar.

  • Regional Centre RC: This is your administrative point for receiving books, issuing ID cards, making changes to exam centers, and so on. This is the IGNOU's general office in Mulund West, Mumbai, for all courses.

IGNOU PROBLEMS

The RC is sometimes unresponsive, and with a low student-to-administrative representative ratio (IGNOU has no upper limit on the number of students it can admit), it is difficult to get questions answered. To receive a response, students must send emails in bulk.

IGNOU (or RC) appoints teachers to give IGNOU lectures in addition to their regular teaching duties.

IGNOU urgently needs to address these concerns in order to maintain and improve students' trust in the system.

How do I get my IGNOU ID card after taking admission in the MA programme?

AD
Aasif Dar Posted On : October 20th, 2022
Post Grady from IGNOU (Graduated 2016)

To get your IGNOU ID card you need to visit your IGNOU regional centre. You can collect it from there. The ID card should have a stamp of IGNOU on it which makes it valid. If you will download your IGNOU ID card online, it does not have the stamp making it invalid. This will be a major problem in your exams.

It is highly possible that IGNOU does not mail your card. Most of the time you will have to visit the regional centre personally to get your IGNOU ID card.

Is someone with an MA in psychology from IGNOU, eligible for RCI registration?

PH
Pooja Hegde Posted On : May 4th, 2026

IGNOU MA Psychology and RCI registration — important distinction:

RCI (Rehabilitation Council of India) registers professionals working in rehabilitation services including clinical psychology and special education.

for RCI registration as a psychologist, you typically need:

  • a recognized degree in psychology (BA/MA) from a UGC-recognized university
  • specific rehabilitation/clinical training hours
  • RCI-approved program completion

IGNOU MA Psychology specifically: IGNOU's MA Psychology is a UGC-recognized degree. however, RCI registration requires the program to be an RCI-approved program — not just any psychology degree. IGNOU MA Psychology alone is generally NOT sufficient for RCI registration as a Rehabilitation Psychologist.

for RCI registration you'd typically need to also complete an additional RCI-approved diploma or meet specific clinical training requirements. check the RCI website (rehabcouncil.nic.in) for the latest eligibility criteria — these change periodically. also verify with IGNOU whether their specific psychology programs have RCI approval for any category.

How much can an average student score in an MA programme at IGNOU?

RA
Ram Achal Posted On : November 3rd, 2022
Career Guidance Counsellor

The word average student is vague. The examiner checking your answer sheets has no idea whether you are an average student or a topper. So it all depends on your preparation for the exam. You can get above-average marks if you study well and attempt the exam well. Similarly, not studying well might result in below-average marks.

The rough estimate of average IGNOU marks is around 55-60 marks (out of 100).

So it can be said that an average student can score first division easily. It mostly depends on how you write your answers.
