What does this minimum and maximum duration of IGNOU course mean?

GS
Govind Sharma Posted On : November 1st, 2022
BA from Indira Gandhi National Open university (IGNOU)

The minimum duration of an IGNOU course accounts for the minimum period you have to spend on a course to get a degree. The maximum duration is the maximum time period you can take to complete a program in order to get a degree.

Because of long distance learning, there are many people who might not complete the course within the minimum period. For them the maximum duration helps in completing the pending assignments and exams without affecting the work they are doing alongside.

For example, the MCA Course in IGNOU is for 3 years. This means to get a degree you have to give at least 3 years. If you don’t complete 3 years you will not get a degree. This is the minimum duration.

Now for the same program, MCA, IGNOU gives you a maximum of 6 years. This means you can take 6 years to complete your assignments and give all exams. This is the maximum duration.

Is IISER Bhopal a good choice for sciences?

NB
Niti Bose, Posted On : November 9th, 2021
BS-MS from Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Bhopal (2024)

One of my friends studied at IISER Bhopal, he had a science background as well. According to him, it is his best decision in life. He, being a student there, mentioned that it is really good for sciences. 

  • Every IISER has proper research facilities. 
  • The faculty members are involved in active research. They are very encouraging and helpful.
  • IISER Bhopal has a sprawling 200–250 acre campus which is beautiful and well maintained. 
  • There are different clubs to nurture your interests. 
  • Students secure internship opportunities right after the first semester.

But like everything else it has its own flaws. Many IISERs have issues with the attendance system, hostel facilities, etc. Overall if you join any IISER and have an interest in Science, you will not be disappointed.

What is the difference in doing a six-year MCh neurology course in NIMHANS and in other colleges in India?

PT
Pradnya Tripathi Posted On : September 30th, 2023
NIMHANS (2022)

I am not aware of other colleges but since my cousin is currently pursuing a six-year MCh neurology course in NIMHANS, I have better knowledge in that regard. 

  1. NIMHANS has a huge patient load and the OPDs are open till late hours in the evening. The cases entertained are very diverse ranging from PIVD to brainstem gliomas. 
  2. There is a dedicated trauma team that receives around 100–150 trauma cases every day from mild concussions to SAH. The OT runs on all working days and every day in case of emergency.
  3. Some of the most common surgeries conducted here are aneurysmal clipping to functional surgeries such as DBS or functional hemispherectomy. 
  4. The academics aren’t compromised and general classes are conducted throughout the week. Here, primary importance is given to clinical exposure so students get a lot of raw material to work with to gain clinical knowledge. 
  5. You will also have enough research facilities to satiate your research thirst. 

Overall, you will have a lot of opportunities and your schedule will be extremely busy while pursuing the 6-year MCh neurology course.

No. You cannot do that. There is a proper procedure that everyone needs to follow regarding the submission of assignments at IGNOU.

Step 1: Submit all your assignments at your study center. Also, make photocopies of your assignments before submitting them. These photocopies along with the signatures will be proof of your submission of assignments. 

Step 2: After submitting all your assignments fill your exam form. Get the signature of your study center coordinator at the back of the form. 

Step 3: When you are done submitting, go to your regional center m. Here you are required to submit your TEE form ( Term End Examination). Fill out the receipt they give and submit it along with the demand draft and TEE form. 

You will get the signed receipt back. Keep this safely with you for future use.

Is it worth doing a diploma course in nutrition and dietetics from IGNOU?

MB
Mahima Bhalla Posted On : October 20th, 2022
Master in MCA, IGNOU, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

If you choose the right centre with regular classes at least on weekends and practise enough on your own, you will notice a difference.

If you already have a job and want to add a star through this or are thinking of getting an IGNOU diploma to fulfil the eligibility criteria for a job, it is entirely up to you which centre you choose.

If you want to improve your knowledge, IGNOU is fantastic because it encourages you to push your boundaries and explore more.

It is important to remember that it can only be worthwhile if you are determined to work hard.

How good are the courses from SOL DU and do they posses the same value as regular courses?

NS
Natasha Sinha Posted On : October 1st, 2021
Studied B.Com (Hons.) from the University of Delhi(2016)

SOL is a good option only when you are looking for just a degree but it does not carry a great value in the industry. In every sector, while competing for a job, regular students will be given the first preference and then the SOL students will be valued, although the degree will be the same. 

I have even seen some work postings referencing "SOL understudies are not qualified to apply". In the end, regular students are preferred more over SOL students irrespective of the degree.
