- The bombarding of assignments in the first month of college itself with close deadlines.This could be hectic for most of the people and may face problem in time management
- The girl to boy ratio in my class is around 5:1 which is very low for a course like Bsc Biotechnology,Zoology.
Course Curriculum Overview
The curriculum isnt only theoritical but also has lot of practical insights which helps us gain onfield experience and knowlegde.The course could have been made a little less hectic for the students and a bit of breaks could have been added in between them.The exams are really packed and we get a lot of assignments.

Fees and Financial Aid
At christ univeristy the fees varies for people who's domicile state is karnataka itself and for the ones who dont belong from karnataka .For me the fees was 1.35lacs and i got no scholarships. The people who have karnataka as a domicile state get a scholarship which reduces their annual fee which brings it down to 1.2 lacs. The fee may increase by 5% to 8% every year .Merit scholarships are available which are 10-50% depending upon the marks you have achieved.
