B.com (Honours) from University of Delhi (2020)

My sister graduated from Ramjas College in 2017. Here is her insight. 

  • These three years are very important. You will meet a variety of people, so choose your friends wisely. The best thing about DU is also its diversity and inclusiveness. 
  • Don't think DU will make you something. You will make something out of yourself if you're capable.
  • Get to know your seniors, faculty, friends. These relationships will help you with your goals in the future.
  • Join Societies and participate in activities that excite you. Don't join just for certificates.
  • Be aware and figure out what you are really passionate about by gradual exploration.

AT
Aryan Thakkar Posted On : February 12th, 2026

CGPA to percentage conversion varies by university—always use your institution's official formula.

Conversion methods:

  • Common Formula: Percentage = CGPA × 9.5 (widely used but not universal).
  • University-Specific: Some use CGPA × 10, CGPA × 9, or custom multipliers—verify officially.
  • Marksheet Reference: Recent marksheets often display both CGPA and percentage equivalents.
  • Official Certificate: For job applications or admissions, request university-issued conversion certificate.
  • Grade Point Scale: 10-point, 4-point, and 5-point scales use different conversion factors.

Check your university's examination section website for authorized conversion formulas. Avoid third-party converters—they may not match your university's method.

What is the scope of the BA programme from DU?

PC
Princy Chaudhary Posted On : October 6th, 2022
Studied Bachelor of Arts Degrees & English Honours at Ramjas College, University of Delhi

The B.A Programme is a well-known course at Delhi University. This course allows you to study a variety of subjects and is typically chosen by students who are undecided about their career paths. The B.A. programme includes courses in English, Hindi, Political Science, Economics, and History. 

Here are some possible career paths: 

  1. After completing a B.A. programme, the majority of students pursue postgraduate studies in fields such as B.Ed. or M.A. There are numerous options available after earning an M.A. in Education. Candidates who complete this course are qualified for PGT positions, and elementary and secondary principalships in both private and public schools. Candidates who pass the NET/SET in education are also eligible for university-level teaching jobs in both private and public institutions. A B.Ed. degree, on the other hand, can only lead to a job as a teacher in a government or private school.

  2. Another postgraduate degree pursued by students is an MBA. MBA programmes can lead to positions in private and public financial institutions.

  3. Students who have completed their graduation are eligible to apply for civil service examinations as well as Bank PO exams.

You can apply for positions in the Union Public Service Communication such as IPS, IAS, IFS, and Indian Defense Service. Before deciding on a career path, consider your strengths (aptitude) and interests. Choose potential career paths based on your aptitude, interests, and personality characteristics. Going into journalism or fashion design without interest or passion in them, for example, will not get you very far.

What are courses in DU for commerce without Math?

BP
Bhagyashree Patil Posted On : May 2nd, 2026

DU has quite a few good options for commerce students without math! main ones:

  • B.Com (Hons) / B.Com Programme — you can apply even without math in class 12. admission is via CUET UG. the content in 2nd/3rd year does get math-heavy (financial accounting, stats) but it's manageable without a strong math background
  • BMS (Bachelor of Management Studies) — good for commerce without math. covered in DU's South Campus colleges. MBA-track career path
  • BA (Hons) Economics — technically no math requirement at 12th, but the course itself is very quantitative. only pick this if you're actually comfortable with basic math concepts
  • BA Programme (Commerce elective combinations) — flexibility to combine commerce subjects with non-math options
  • BBA (FMS) — offered by Faculty of Management Studies affiliated colleges. good management track without needing PCM

one thing people miss — DU now admits via CUET UG, not 12th board cutoffs (since 2022). so it doesn't matter how high your 12th board marks are; what matters is your CUET score in the relevant subjects. for B.Com CUET subjects are Accountancy, Business Studies, Economics, English. register early and prepare specifically for CUET!

What is meant by evening colleges of DU?

JT
Jayant Thakur Posted On : October 10th, 2022
Student at University of Delhi

Classes at the evening college start in the afternoon and end in the evening.

The curriculum, degree, classes, principal (in most cases), canteen, and location are all the same for the morning and evening batches.

However, the cutoffs differ; evening colleges have a lower cutoff than morning colleges. It has a different faculty and administration and is less crowded than the morning classes.

It differs from one college to the next. Some evening colleges are excellent, while others are on par with government schools. Teachers are present, but students don't actually care, and vice versa.

So, students with lower percentages in their XII standard are more likely to be admitted to evening colleges.

If you want to attend evening college, you don't have to feel inferior to morning students because many students from evening colleges have topped the DU exam.

Ultimately, it is up to you to consider and make decisions wisely. Many students attend evening colleges and then go to coaching to prepare for exams such as UPSC and SSC in the morning.

Different colleges have different teaching hours; Here are a few details about the two colleges to give you an idea of an evening college's teaching hours.

Please keep in mind that the number of subjects increases as you advance in your career. As a result, it is natural for Zakir Husain to extend the timing until 20:00-20:30.

A wonderful college on the South Campus that gives students a lot of opportunities. Their evening college schedule does not begin in the evening. For both shifts, they have the same Principal and other administrative staff. Their evening shifts begin at 14:00.
