One of my friends is pursuing her BA(H) in Applied Psychology from Amity University. According to her experience, Amity University is definitely not the best, but it is not a bad option either. Given below is a brief review of the course.
Faculty:
Attendance:
At Amity, attendance is a big issue. You need to maintain at least 75% attendance in each subject.
Extra-subjects:
In Amity, you don’t join psychology or any particular course, but the baggage of other subjects like foreign languages, English, BS, EVS, and many more. You will have to study a total of 12 subjects in the first semester itself. Out of these subjects, only some of them are useful, the rest do not even matter if they were a part of the curriculum for psychology or not.
The BA Psychology department has almost 1800 students in the department, 7 sections for BA Psychology Hons, and each section has 60 students. The faculty members are not at par with the count required to teach 7 sections. So, you might face some difficulty with the lectures taught because of the huge crowd of students attending the lecture, all at the same time, in the same hall. But this problem is temporary.
Extra-curricular:
Fee Structure:
As far as fee structure is concerned, it will cost you around 1 lakh per year, which is quite high as compared to DU, which has an annual fee of 10,000.
The number of girls in each section is more. The ratio of the number of girls to boys is 8:1. It would be best for you to go for options like Ambedkar University or DU. But Amity is not that bad. You would definitely enjoy those 3 years in the university.
If you are looking for a good college, you need a 90% or higher. There are Hindu, Ramjas, KMC, SGTB, and Hansraj for Political Science. And, to assist you further, Ramjas and Hindu College are the best choices among these.
Keep a close eye on all of the deadlines before applying for admission. Go to North Campus on the day of the first cutoff. There are many senior students who can advise new students on good colleges, exposure, faculty, infrastructure, and so on. You should visit different colleges based on your cutoff and talk to everyone about the subjects you have to study in addition to Political Science because each college offers different subjects that may or may not be of interest to you.
You should also look at college rankings. You must not forget to follow these steps before going straight for admission: carefully check cutoffs, visit colleges for guidance, and change admission if necessary if you get a good college in the next one.
