    How is the BA economics course at St. Xavier's University, Kolkata? What is the cutt-off for candidates who took commerce stream in 12? Is Mathematics subject compulsory for admissions?

    Rishabh ChandelStudied at St. Xavier's College, Kolkata (2017)

    If you are considering pursuing a degree in Economics, it is recommended that you do not prioritize Xavier's Kolkata.

    • You'd be better off starting at one of the top ten colleges in Delhi or one of the top five in Mumbai.
    • Kolkata lacks the atmosphere and opportunities that economics graduates require both during and after graduation.
    • In contrast, Delhi has a great environment (coaching and guidance for higher studies in eco) and opportunities (training and internships) for eco graduates.
    • The Finance Industry in Mumbai will be very helpful (and much needed) in obtaining internships, part-time jobs, or any other type of practical training.
    • Calcutta is devoid of all of these.
    • Also, Mathematics is mandatory in order to be admitted to B.A. (Eco) at St. Xavier's Kolkata.

    If you are not applying through any quotas (such as Christian, SC/ST, or from schools affiliated with Xavier's), you will need at least 96 percent in class 12th. Despite the fact that it appears in subsequent lists, it goes down by 1%–2%.
