B.Com from Patna University (2019)

Every college has their own cut offs presented by them. The cut off marks tend to decrease with consecutive lists.

If you are a General category student 55-65 marks out of 100 would be enough to get you through. The reserved categories like OBC, SC or ST get a relaxation of 5-10%. Patna University also considers students from sports quota and other extra curricular achievements.

The BA program offered by the Delhi College of Arts and Commerce is good. The infrastructure of the department is decent. You will not face any trouble adjusting. The campus is peaceful and ideal for studies. 

The faculties are great. Other than lectures they will give you information regarding useful seminars and workshops.

Should I do BA programme from St. Stephens or English honours from JMC?

SR
Sugandhi Roy Posted On : October 29th, 2021
studied at Kirori Mal College, Delhi University

I have friends from both St. Stephens and JMC. Here are a few of the information that I got from them. 

  • St. Stephens is a prestigious college with its own sets of rules and code of conduct. It has a good campus. If you want to explore ideas, places and have a decent campus life then St. Stephens is a great option.
  • JMC is an off-campus college. So, you won’t have access to campus. It is a girl’s college with strict rules. 

Now coming to the courses, in English honors, you will learn about a myriad of texts from different countries and different time periods. However, you will have to spend your three years around poetry and prose. You won’t get to experience much diversity when it comes to subjects. For the BA program, however, you can choose all subjects from Social Science. There are many combinations that you can opt for. 

So, I will suggest that you choose the program which will keep you interested for the next three years. College life will be similar irrespective of the institute. Also, gone are the days when students with honors degrees were treated superior to the students who pursued programs.

Yes, you can migrate from DAV College Chandigarh to PU main campus in your 2nd year of BA 

You just need to know about the requirements for doing so. These could include: marks required or seats vacancy, etc.

The students involved in the youth elections will be able to guide you. Try getting a hold of a person who is a party member. He may be able to get you in, by admission or by referral.

Also note that there could be a slight chance that in PU, the reference required has to be powerful or influential.
