Is the B.Com degree from IGNOU as per MOU between ICAI and IGNOU recognised internationally?
According to MoU, the degree is given after IPCC/PCC and completion of 3 years of articles. Also, you will have to appear for some exams of both IGNOU and ICAI. The marks of both exams are aggregated. Then your BCom grade is decided on this basis.
As far as international recognition is concerned, it’s better you consult the university you are planning to get higher studies. Most universities abroad prefer a minimum college education of 4 years. Whether or not an open university is qualified, depends on the particular county
Is a Ph.D. from IGNOU worth it valuable?
Ph.D. has its own value, and IGNOU is the world's largest university, so it most certainly has value. There are private universities, such as Manipal, that have their own individual value in terms of employment.
The question is how much time you will spend learning and researching the field you intend to pursue. There is no need to be concerned about the doctorate value if you finish learning the subject of your choice to the best of your ability. You should earn your Ph.D. rather than purchasing one.
You must strive for excellence, and success will follow you.
How long should the assignment answers be For 20 or 25 marks?
It primarily depends on the course that you are pursuing (BA, BSC, BCA, BCOM, etc). IGNOU prioritizes quality over quantity. As a result, it is best to write as much as possible in a direct and concise manner. A4 sheets are preferred.
It is recommended to write half a page for a 5-mark answer.
Write the answer in full page for 10 points
2 pages for a 20-mark question (front & back)
For a 25-point question, two or two and a half would suffice.
This is how the answer writing pattern is divided which would fetch you marks if you have written on point.
What are the disadvantages of IGNOU?
The main disadvantage of IGNOU is that the administration does not even listen to the student's problems. Every Regional Center has a student support desk, but it is not there to help students, but to torture them. The regional center IGNOU university staff does not treat students as human beings. Some claim that IGNOU has standard study material, but the 20% figure printed in the IGNOU book is incorrect.
The amount of Rs. 750 is required when you go for a re-evaluation of your exam paper if you do not receive the expected marks. Normal university fees are Rs. 150.
These are the main drawbacks of IGNOU distance and online learning.
How can I change exam centers for IGNOU?
Before registering for Term-End exams, students can change their exam location which means that before registering for each Term-End exam, students must select an exam center online (it cannot be changed subject-wise). If you simply do not like your exam center for future exams, you can choose or change your exam center before registering for each semester's Term-End exams.
Since 2017, IGNOU exam registration has been done solely online. Please exercise caution when selecting an exam center. Always go to the closest exam center. Even if you select the exam centers, you may not always get your preferred location. It is subject to change due to a lack of available seats. It is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to change your exam location once you have chosen one.
This is especially true as your exams approach and your data sheet are already prepared. If you have enough time for your exams and need to change your exam location, please contact your Regional center as soon as possible. Please do not waste your time and act immediately.
