Which is better for UPSC CSE PREPARATION BA or BA Hons in political science from DU?

YD
Yuvraj Dua Posted On : October 7th, 2022
M.A. in Politics & International Relations, Jawaharlal Nehru University

BA and BA Honors are both excellent choices for UPSC CSE. It will aid you in your preparation for the Prelims and Main exams.

In BA course, you must study three different subjects, such as political science, history, and geography, which means that 50% of the syllabus has already been covered, and if you choose Political Science as an optional subject, another 40% has already been covered. So taking a BA course will improve your chances. 

Now, moving on to the BA (Hons), you will study political science in depth, which will help you in the Mains because, as we all know, the difficulty level of optional is higher than the Bachelor level but lower than the Master's level, so it will benefit you greatly. However, because you will only be studying two subjects in your bachelor's programme, you will have to study the third subject on your own.

Thus, you should pursue a BA General course. However, as everyone knows, UPSC is all about extreme hard work, luck, proper planning, guidance, and several other factors. Make your own decision and put in your best effort.

Mahesh Desai Posted On : October 21st, 2022
BA in Economics, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) (Graduated - 2014)

When it comes to study material, IGNOU definitely provides the best. The course is lucid, well-written, and informative and contains a summary of all important details. The quality of the study material makes it possible for you to solely rely on it and give exams. 

But if you are aiming for some brownie points, then there is an additional tip for you. Download MA English question papers of the past 5 years.

How is life at JNU for MA students? Is it only hectic or do students have fun too?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : July 4th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

My friend pursued his M.A. from JNU and according to him, he spent the best years of his life at JNU. He went to many well-renowned colleges and universities in the USA, however, JNU is unparalleled. At JNU, you will learn even when you are having fun.

Female students feel safe on campus. Male students are respectful towards their female counterparts. There are no whistles or cat-calling incidents on campus. Females can walk fearlessly from one end of the campus to the other, even at midnight. 

Life for M.A. students is very hectic at JNU. It is more challenging than one can expect. If you do not maintain a healthy work-life balance, you will end up spending all your time sitting in a corner with your laptop and books. Even your group discussions will end up being solely about studies.

If you feel that it will be difficult for you to create a healthy balance between studies and enjoyment, you can join JNU as a Ph.D. student rather than as an M.A. student, you will then get more time to enjoy and experience life at JNU.

Should I choose NIT Trichy for CSE or IIT Roorkee for metallurgy? Why?

AR
Anusha Rahaman Posted On : April 11th, 2023
Lived in Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee

My brother was in the CSE branch of NIT Trichy and based on his experience, here are a few pointers:

  • The professors are extremely learned and experienced and impart quality education
  • The relative grading system establishes peer pressure, and as a result, there is tough competition among the students 
  • IIT Roorkee is well known for its rich coding culture that is promoted by student-driven and institute funded clubs. These clubs give you additional knowledge on web designing, App development, and game development that might be useful later in
  • The CSE department is one of the most coveted branches, and being a part of one will inculcate a sense of privilege.
  • The hostel and campus life is decent with all necessary amenities.
  • A total of 5 fests are held throughout the year and are totally funded and organized by the institute. The institute is located in an area that helps you explore nearby tourist spots like Pondicherry and Ooty.

You won’t ever regret choosing NIT CSE.

How is the placement of M.Tech research at IISc Bangalore?

GS
Gaurav Shaha Posted On : July 14th, 2023
Studied at IISC Banglore

I have a few friends who pursued an M.Tech (Research) at IISc Bangalore. They told me that placement opportunities are good and at par with the M.Tech program.

At IISc Bangalore, for any Engineering branch where the placements are good, you will get equal opportunities in M.Tech and M.Tech (Research). 

Make sure to go for an M.Tech (Research) only if have a passionate interest in your branch because you will be working on your research project. Though you will be spending an extra 0.5 to 1 year on your research project, the coursework load will be comparatively less on you. 

You will also get enough time to spend on a particular course, so you can go for your Ph.D. in that area with a more informed mind.

Some Business, Finance, and IT firms may not allow M.Tech (Research) students to sit for the placement process. However, core companies make no such differentiation. 

Therefore, the placement of M.Tech (Research) at IISc Bangalore is pretty decent and at par with M.Tech.
