How is it to have V. Balakrishnan (IIT Madras) as a teacher?
My brother is an alumnus of IIT Madras. According to him, it was a brilliant experience to have V.Balakrishnan sir as a teacher.
The experience of watching sir’s lectures is the same as watching Cosmos or listening to Feynman’s lectures. He has an amazingly strong grasp on his subject. A lot of times, teachers don’t bother to teach some of the most important derivations. Instead, they put the entire burden on the students to figure out those derivations.
Sir on the other hand, teaches his students every detail of a concept/calculation. He approaches every single problem from different angles, and each one of those angles opens a new perspective. Sir was the reason my brother decided to switch from Electrical Engineering to Applied Physics.
V.Balakrishnan sir is a source of inspiration to many students.
How do students get study material from IGNOU?
After completing your registration, you must provide your email address and phone number. You will receive a confirmation email regarding your application, indicating that it has been acknowledged.
After a month or two, you will receive a text message or email with instructions on how to retrieve your study materials. It is important to remember that the Study Center and the location where you collect your study materials (Regional Center) are not the same.
You can also send an email requesting that it be sent to your address, which you will receive approximately 2 months later. However, you must visit the Regional Center at least once to obtain your enrollment card and have it stamped.
Keep in touch with the institution via email until you receive what you require. I would not recommend making phone calls because it is always busy and difficult to get through.

IPMAT IIM Rohtak considers past academic records as well but I have got 70% in my 12th boards with extremely low marks in maths. Do I have a chance to get into IIM Rohtak? If yes, then how?
IIM Rohtak offers admission based on your potential and not solely on the marks previously obtained. When the interviewer enquires of you regarding your low percentage, you should honestly answer him/her.
Instead of faltering and mumbling your answers you should confidently speak out your answers. Even if you would be at fault your interviewer would let it slide given that you are not doubtful of your own self. Try not to use any falsehood around them and notably maintain your calm.

Should I take a loan and study in NICMAR could I take the risk?
Yes, you can take a loan and study at NICMAR as it is worth the risk. But it is entirely your decision. People who come to the university and work hard do receive decent opportunities.

But after completing his course he is certain, he made the right choice. He made the most of his time at the institute and scored 6.92 CPI. Which provided him with a lot of decent opportunities.

Which is better: An integrated five years course into DM neurology (NIMHANS) or completing my MD in general medicine and then specializing in DM neurology?
In my opinion, it’s best to complete an MD in medicine first rather than pursuing DM Neuro directly after MBBS.
It is so because M.B.B.S. students receive minimal clinical exposure and therefore their interest in a particular field might not be genuine. They might later regret their choice.
An integrated program is a 5-year program that requires a lot of commitment. So, if you go for a field you are not interested in, you will be wasting 5 years of your life. Even if you are sure of your interest in neurology, you may not actually like it when you start working. That being said, it's better that you do MD in medicine, have first-hand exposure to all the specialties, and then choose one for you.
People often choose integrated courses so as to save one year of education. However, they fail to recognize the risks involved.
Ultimately, unless you love neurology passionately and have enough exposure in the same, go for direct DM, else completing MD would be the safest bet.
