How is Fergusson College Pune for BSc in physics?

RS
Riya Sodhi Posted On : September 28th, 2021
Studied at Fergusson College,Pune (2018)

If physics is your passion, and you genuinely want to learn, this is not the place for you. One of my friends studied here and these are some things he mentioned.

  • The faculty is good but they have limited course material. You would not feel like you have learned much. 
  • Most students take up physics in their final years because they know they can easily memorize the course material and pass. This is just so that they can improve their grades. 
  • Mugging up theories is definitely not how someone can learn science. 
  • They don’t have a real interest in the subject anyway and they would be your peers.
  • The system at Fergusson is not great and you wouldn’t want to attend classes as it would not matter and you will pass your exams regardless.

If you are only looking for a college life minus the studies and want to have some fun with fests and events, by all means, join Fergusson because marks and knowledge are secondary here.

Is Ramjas College better than ARSD College for pursuing a B.Sc in Physics hons general category?

AS
Arvind Sharma Posted On : January 21st, 2022
B.Sc. Statistics & Operations Research, Ramjas College, University of Delhi (2016)

Ramjas is one of the best Science colleges in the country. Being a North campus it has its own benefits. A lot of events take place within the north campus which you will be aware of or be a part of if you take admission in any north campus college.

Ramjas in terms of reputation, crowd quality, and exposure is much better than ARSD. It has got an incredible faculty and equally great infrastructure. It is one of the oldest colleges under DU hence has a lot of academic experience. If you seek a fulfilling college life, giving attention to both academics and extracurricular activities, Ramjas is the place for you.

There are a lot of societies and clubs in Ramjas, students get enough exposure to explore their skills and talents and enhance them. They are lenient with attendance and also lets students submit an ECA for serious reasons. It will give a proper balance between academics and extracurriculars, here you get to focus on both of them equally. For Physics Honours Ramjas will be the perfect choice.

What are the placements of integrated M.Sc in math and computing at BIT Mesra?

AB
Arun Biswas Posted On : August 9th, 2023
Studied at Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra

The branch was started in 2011 and still has a long way to go. The placement scenario however seems promising since the first batch itself received the highest offer of INR 10 LPA. Most of the seniors I know who belonged to this branch were dependent on off-campus placements and got placed in SAP Labs.

The reason on-campus placements for Integrated MSc in Math and Computing at BIT Mesra are not very promising is that students for this program aren't selected via JEE Mains. Big companies like Goldman Sachs, Amazon, Walmart Labs, etc don't find these students credible enough to work in their companies. However, recently MnC has become the fastest-growing branch on campus right now with students receiving plentiful internship offers from foreign universities, IIT, and IIM.

Ultimately I would like to comment that go for this branch only if you are genuinely interested in it and not as an escape route to one-year JEE preparation. Don’t go for it just because of placements you will end up being disappointed.

How can I do my BSc from Lucknow University?

SD
Shankar Dev Posted On : February 6th, 2021
Studied B.SC Mathematics at University of Lucknow (2020)

Lucknow University conducts an entrance examination for admission in UG programs. You must have passed with 1st division (60% marks) in your intermediate exam from any board. 

You must have the following subjects in your 10+2 - Physics, Chemistry, Astronomy, Computer Science, Statistics, Electronics. It is advisable to choose your subjects carefully and study properly.

The university usually releases application forms at the beginning of March and the counseling session begins after the result of the entrance exam is announced. If you are able to secure under 600 rank, you will get a regular seat in Lucknow university. But cutoff will vary every year, so you should check the cutoff requirements prior to your entrance.

Some facts regarding admission in B. Sc course at Lucknow University are:

Total course fee

INR 25,662

Total seats available

190 seats 

Application Fees

INR 800 (General & OBC) and INR 400 (SC & ST)

The main struggle will start after admission because Lucknow university does not provide“spoon-feeding” to students (especially those who are from the science stream) like other colleges. You will not receive any comprehensive notes of all the subjects. The university really focuses on the growth of students on their own. Lucknow University will certainly not provide you full notes on all subjects, but teachers here teach really very well, and you can make notes by yourself if you are sincere enough.

Making notes is an art that every student should know and the university will help you practice it well. The primary part of the B.Sc course is Practicals. You will have the best practical classes here at Lucknow University, much better than any other college.

Last but not the least, professors are very helpful here and are always available for your doubts or queries. You will never feel in this college that you should do coaching or take any other help because professors are always there for any help.

Which college is better for a B.Sc in Computer Science the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya College or Keshav Mahavidyalaya?

ST
Saikat Taneja Posted On : November 26th, 2021
studied at Keshav Mahavidyalaya, Delhi University (2016)

Both these colleges are off campus. They have been upgraded with all the modern facilities. Deen Dayal Upadhyaya College (DDCU) is a bit better overall than Keshav Mahavidyalaya (KMV)

DDUC is comparatively older which gives it an edge over KMV when overall educational experience is considered. They have a much more experienced faculty. They offer sufficient classrooms and labs equipped with the latest technology for educational purposes.

If you prefer studying Computer Science, KMV will be the better option. They have an excellent faculty in this department. For other subjects it is better to rely on DDUC.

How is the BSc Economics program at NMIMS Bangalore? I’m on the waitlist for the Mumbai campus so I want to know if I should consider Bangalore or wait for the list for Mumbai to come out.

AM
Anita Malhotra Posted On : May 23rd, 2023
Student at NMIMS Bangalore

NMIMS Bangalore BSc Economics program has unique course content and innovative pedagogy. It helps in developing an individual to seamlessly integrate into an organization or to be an entrepreneur. The linkages of different quantitative methods have led NMIMS to set up a School of Economics.

Mumbai is the financial capital of India and taking a shot at the admission waitlist will be worth waiting because if you get into the Mumbai campus, the level of exposure you will get will not be at par with any other city in India. If your waiting list number is beyond the acceptable limit then you should consider the Bangalore campus as well.
