How hard is the IGNOU MA in psychology?

DN
Dhruv Nainwal Posted On : October 31st, 2022
MA in Psychology Indira Gandhi National Open university (IGNOU) (Graduated 2019)

The level of difficulty of a program depends on your passion mostly. If you are passionate about learning then an MA in psychology from IGNOU is not that difficult. You can even work while pursuing a Masters.

Firstly attend all classes and complete all practicals. You will be guided by facilitators throughout. This will help you at the time of examinations. Also, the study material provided by IGNOU is very easy so I don’t think overall it will be a difficult ride.

Can I do BA with psychology after dropping 2nd yr Diploma in engineering?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : May 24th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

It's understandable that you may be considering a change in your field of study, especially as a 2nd-year student. To determine if psychology is the right fit for you, first, you should do some research and gain a better understanding of the field. While many people consider this field as cool and interesting, the reality is far from this. 

Psychology is a difficult field unless you are genuinely interested in it and are certain about pursuing a career in it. A career is a long-term shot and you should be determined to go for a PhD from a top institute. Many times people are attracted to a certain field only to find later that they just wanted a way out of engineering. It's very necessary to do a self-analysis.

Also, I would like to clear the misconception that you don't have to get your bachelors in the same field as your master's. Unless you are planning to get a master's or doctorate, a bachelor's in psychology is not an easy degree to find a comfortable living after graduating. You can just take a minor in psychology in order to meet the eligibility criteria to enter many graduate school programs. But, if you want to pursue a research-based Ph.D. program you will likely need to get actual research experience, which may be harder if you only did a minor.

Additionally, you can read up on the latest research and articles in psychology, and explore different subfields of psychology, such as clinical, developmental, social, and cognitive psychology. It's important to remember that changing majors can be a big decision, and it may take some time to determine if psychology is right for you.

Which is better for BA in psychology- Jai Hind or St. Xavier College Mumbai?

SS
Supriyo Sen Posted On : January 19th, 2021
Student at Jai Hind College (2017)

Among the two institutes mentioned, St.Xavier College, Mumbai is better for a BA in psychology. 

The table below will give you a brief overview of the two colleges.

Parameters

Jai Hind

St.Xavier College

Fee structure

INR 16,200 (for 3 years)

Rs 17,625 (for 3 years)

Placement rate (2020)

-

>90%

Average salary package (2020)

3 LPA

6.5 LPA

Comparison: 

Both the institutes provide good learning opportunities, but the difference is St. Xavier is autonomous and hence better.

  • As St. Xaviers is autonomous, it can update the syllabus anytime, if needed. While Jai Hind is affiliated with MU and follows the same syllabus as MU. Which may not be updated. 
  • Xavier’s also conducts its own examinations. So any problem caused in the result published by MU will not affect the students of Xaviers. 
  • Like any other autonomous institute, Xaviers also publishes its results first. So, students get the first preference for a job. 
  • While containing a degree from MU through Jai Hind is quite convenient since university and college will both have a set of mark sheets.

From the academic point of view, St. Xaviers College is better than Jai Hind College Mumbai.
