First of all, Doon University offers an Integrated BCA+MCA program only. To be eligible for this program, you must have completed 10+2 with mathematics from a recognized Board of Secondary Education. The minimum % marks required are 50%. 

Based on the above criteria, it can be concluded that you won't be able to pursue a BCA course from Doon University without Mathematics in class 12.

Is doing BCA from IGNOU worth it?

It is true that doing a degree from a reputed college helps your career and getting admission in a reputed college should be a priority. But that does not necessarily mean, you won’t be able to succeed with a degree from a tier-3 college. 

IGNOU is good to go with for BCA. The curriculum is well-designed. However, you should give preference to regular courses over distance courses. 

Job Prospect:

  • As far as the job perspective is concerned, you can secure a good job if you have the required skillset and a good academic record. The university name has very little to do with it. 
  • If you want to get a job in the IT sector, then BCA from IGNOU is the best course offered in ODL mode.

Mode of Class:

Taking admission at IGNOU depends completely on you since IGNOU is a correspondence degree or a distance learning degree. 

  • For the courses like BCA or MCA, it is generally essential as well as mandatory for every admitted student to attend the practical classes, but IGNOU does not arrange such classes being a distance learning Institute that schedules classes only on weekends that is on Saturdays and Sundays.
  • But for someone who is working and still wants to pursue a degree, can go with IGNOU. This will not take much of your time as you will be able to attend your classes on weekends and by the end of three years, you will also be graduated.

Also, a project is assigned to the BCA students which are mandatory to complete but can only be done by yourself if you attend your class regularly. So, make a decision by taking all the points into consideration.

Which institute is a better option for BCA: Symbiosis Pune or Christ Bangalore?

SJ
Smriti Jha Posted On : November 10th, 2022
Lives in Chicago

In terms of educational quality, both are fairly similar. However, selecting a university is also influenced by a number of other factors.

  • Future Objectives

If you're thinking about getting an MCA, Symbiosis is a good place to start. The same college's MSc CA programme is well-known, and people who complete their masters get really good jobs. However, if you intend to work immediately after completing your BCA, Christ is a better option because it is located in Bangalore, India's IT capital.

  • Cost.

Tuition fees are nearly identical in both colleges. Symbiosis BCA costs INR 1,000,000 in the first instalment, INR 67,500 in the second, and INR 1,52,500 in the third, whereas Christ costs INR 4.07 Lakh.

However, the cost of living in Bangalore is significantly higher than in Pune.

  • Weather, Public Transportation, and Traffic

The weather in both cities is drastically different. When it comes to public transportation, Bangalore far outperforms Pune. However, it has its own drawbacks. Bangalore has terrible traffic, whereas Pune is still on the better side.

  • Close proximity to home.

If you really can't decide between two colleges, consider the distance and duration of travel. It is suggested that you select the one closest to your home town.

There could be numerous other factors. Take your time, choose your college wisely, and develop your own metric of consideration when selecting a college.

I want to do BCA but I'm confused which collage to choose IMS Noida is only 6 KM from my home?

RK
Revanth Krishna Posted On : March 10th, 2023
MBA from Indian School of Business

Many falsely assume IMS Noida to be a good institute after reading fake reviews and misleading information on the internet. My friend's house was in close proximity to the Institute and thus chose it for graduation. Till date he regrets his decision because there are so many flaws like

  • Inexperienced and incompetent faculty
  • Management that is after money only
  • Constant fees hikes every year 
  • Sessional exams are not conducted timely and marks are not sent to the university timely
  • Unnecessary fine imposed
  • Inflated placement statistics 
  • Corrupted administration
  • Poor college life experience 
  • Unhygienic environment 

These reasons are more than enough to convince you from choosing IMS Noida.
