CR
Chandani Rajput Posted On : October 20th, 2022
Master of Commerce in Commerce & Master of Arts in Economics, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

 IGNOU's evaluation system is also distinct from that of traditional universities. IGNOU has a multi-tiered evaluation system.

1. Exercises in self-assessment within each unit of study.

2. Continuous evaluation primarily through tutor-marked assignments, practical assignments, and seminar/workshop/extended contact programmes.

3. The end-of-term exams

4. Work on a project

The evaluation of learners is based on the various instructional activities that they engage in. To complete an academic programme, a learner must write assignment responses before taking term-end exams on a regular basis. A learner must submit TMA responses to the Coordinator of the Study Centre to which he or she is assigned.

A learner should keep duplicate copies of TMA assignment responses that may be required to be produced on demand at the Student Evaluation Division. In June and December, term-end examinations are held at various examination centres throughout the country and abroad.

Who is the best professor at IIM Ahmedabad?

AB
Arkaprava Banerjee Posted On : March 14th, 2022
MBA from Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (2020)

I have a few friends who graduated from IIM Ahmedabad. Most of them used to gush about the teaching methodology of Professor Saral Banerjee.  He is an expert in Operations Management. But his skills and knowledge aren’t limited to a single discipline. You will scarcely come across a better definition of strategy than the one proposed by him, “Strategy is all about closing doors.” His way of explaining the facts of management through the Elephant, Cheetah, and Tortoise story makes a lifelong impression.

What is your review of University of Hyderabad?

AS
Aniket Saha Posted On : October 14th, 2021
M.A. Economics, University of Hyderabad (2018)

The University of Hyderabad is a lot more than academics. I have a few friends from the University of Hyderabad and here is their insight on the institute.

  • There are various places you can explore on the campus including the Water Tank, Mushroom Rock, and Check Dam. 
  • Apart from this, you can do campfires on campus, where you can gather with your friends even at late nights and can cook food and enjoy.
  • The University of Hyderabad is not just an institute that provides academics and education. It helps a student gain experience and understands the true meaning of life which is more important than being a reading parrot.
  • The campus is a beautiful and large lush green campus which is so huge that it is further divided into two campuses where students can jog, play any kind of sports be it outdoor or indoor, ranging from Tennis to Football or gym, etc. Therefore, the campus encourages sports at every level.
  • The faculty base of the institute is quite good. They are experienced and cooperative. 
  • The Indira Gandhi Memorial Library is a great place to study. There are lots of study materials and books.
  • The hostels are clean and well-maintained. There are mess facilities available at each hostel. They provide breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But the quality of food offered is not that great. 
  • The University gives freedom to a student to stay up late at night, to go out of the campus at any hour. You can visit Tankbund or the places you wish to and can be back early morning. There’s no one to supervise.

Therefore, you can opt for the University of Hyderabad without thinking twice.

R
Ritu Posted On : November 9th, 2022
MA in English Literature , University of Delhi (Graduated 2016)

It’s not too late to prepare for the entrance exam MA in English program at Delhi University even in the 3 years of your bachelor's. Just be regular at it and keep some important points in mind.

 

Be well versed in your BA course- Read your text thoroughly and in various aspects. Read diverse critical essays on each text to attain a multiplicity of perspectives. In case you are graduating from a different subject, refer to the BA(Hons.) DU syllabus.

 

Read History of English literature- Knowing the roots is a basic step. To get an idea of the basic chronology and ages refer to these books:

  1. A short history of English literature by Sir Ifor Evans.

  2. A brief history of English literature by Peck & Coyle.

 

Indian Literature in English- To get enough knowledge of the same refers to these books:

  1. A concise history of Indian literature in English by Arvind Mehrotra.

  2. Indian writing in English (4th edition) by K.R. Srinivasa.

 

Gain enough knowledge of literary theory & criticism- For this read:

  1. Beginning theory by Peter Barry

  2. Literary theory by Terry Eagleton

 

Update yourself with award-winning authors- This is not difficult if you read beyond your syllabus. Some of the awards to keep track of are:

  • The Nobel prize

  • The booker prize

  • Sahitya Akademi Award

  • Gyaanpith (for Indian regional literature translated into English)

  • Pulitzer Prize

Apart from these strategies, I suggest becoming an avid reader and reading beyond your syllabus, and also practicing writing book reviews. All this will help you make a way for the DU English Literature program.
