B.Sc Life Sciences from Dyal Singh College, University of Delhi in depth

1. I personally choosed this course because I wanted to have chemistry as my main subject in my masters and PHD. But being from biology background I mean PCB, one cant get chem hons degree from DU. But if ypu opt for B.Sc life Sci you can convert it to 4 years program under the new education policy and get a chem/botany/zoology hons degree. 2. Improvement is something which is never enough yet I can suggest that rather than writting assignments or practical files we can make ppt out of them ans present it. It would be helpful in the real world i guess. 3. Each course carries 80 marks, split between internal and external assessments. For chemistry, this totals 160 marks, evenly divided between practical and theory. The exams are manageable if you attend lectures; otherwise, you might struggle. Two internal theory tests are given, with difficulty varying by teacher, plus one internal practical assessment.

Internships are generally offered by university itself in different branches on the university site itself and some on even college website. One such internship included internship under Vice Chancelor of DU with monthly stipend of 15k.

Generally you dont have placement after B.Sc courses. But if you are keen to have one you can definately find it off campus with different professors and you can definately do jobs in corporate but yeah the placement is not that good.

1st of all fees of 15k is affordable per year. But keep in mind hostel is not included. Hostel is even not available. External scolorships are available college does not offer scholorships. 2nd 2k exam fee per semester is also there so keep that in mind. 3rd their is a laptop program in which university gives you a free laptop if you want it. 4th you can claim all the student benifits out there with your college mail id or identity card from college.

Every society has its own fest/competition thing every semester. A few of them have it every other semester. A few big fests every year are also organised like Priyadarshani. Other than that small fests/ farewell/ freshers/ competitions are organized here and there. There are more than 10 15 socities and all of them are working preety hard for things they want. Library is fully air conditioned, with almost new books available for your course, paired with some novels, holy books etc etc. Library also has a downside that you cant carry your own books inside especially printed materials. But we have a seperate room above library where you can do that. None the less library is good. College also offers sports and extra curricular here and there. As I said earlier a lot of societies are being run by students only which are preety good for exposure in feild you require to learn in.

College does not offer any hostel facilities. I know some areas if you are looking for accomodations nearby. South extension, Kotla, Mubarakpur, Laxmi Nagar, Jangpura, Lajpat, Saket, Govindpuri. You can find a lot of PG and flats in these areas. Just be careful on what you buy and what you pay dont be a fool while signing in a contract avoid it.

Eligibility of course is fine. You have to be from PCB or PCMB bacground and appear in cuet exam. The application fees was 250rs. The application starts as soon as the results for cuet are out. You need to create a priority list which comprises of different colleges from DU with different courses available in them, after that the university will allocate you a course based on your prefrence and your marks in CUET exam. For my personal college and course I have my classmates ranging from 415 to 250 marks in cuet out of 600. Even less than 250 if you have category.

1. Talking about the faculty to teacher ratio for practicals, a big part of B.Sc students, we have 17 18 students per class with 1 teacher. And in theory we have 69 70 students per teacher. So I guess its normal. Well in the practicals having a smaller batch size definately helps with the learning aspect. 2. Talking about faculty's credentials not even a single teacher is less than a PHD holder and have a lot on their resume like tons of research papers and all. 3. Teachers are definately very approachable, and resourceful. I mean they definately know what they are teaching and are helpful. 4. The only con I can think of is teachers make us write a lot of practical file work and assignment but I guess thats also a blessing in disguise?

No Group discussion/ personal interview held for admission in UG in University of Delhi. But GDPI are held for some socities in college but you can clear that I guess. Process for admission is easy and simple visit csas portal for further details after cuet results.
