Many people believe that college isn't necessary for success in life. No, it does not. But those people are simply not telling the whole story. The amount of struggle you will face without a college degree is 20 times greater than what you will face with a good college degree. Working hard today will make your life easier tomorrow.

Any average college isn't worth it unless you're in dire financial need or your family's mental state is unbearable. The hype surrounding DU is unreal. All of those 52 lakh eco packages are overpriced. 5 people out of lakhs may get it; the rest must compete for a 5 lakh job.

You should never accept anything less than what you deserve. You can apply for Jamia to enter. You may apply for abroad studies. You can get a fellowship and take a year off. Do whatever it takes to stand out from the crowd and make a better career for yourself.

Analytics firms are particularly interested in statistics graduates. Examples include MU Sigma, Fractal Analytics, EXL, and others. However, many employers will expect you to have a Master's degree in the subject as well. You would have a distinct advantage over the majority of engineers available to analytics firms because they will not be as familiar with statistical models and techniques.

For a Master's degree, you should specifically seek one from the ISI (Indian Statistical Institute) in Delhi/Kolkata, which is an incredible research institute as well as an Institute of National Importance, similar to the IITs and NITs. Excellent faculty members teach at ISI and provide you with a highly competitive peer group.

If you want to do an MBA to work in the private sector, the IIMs would love to have you if you have a good academic record because you'll bring much needed diversity to the engineering school crowd. A background in statistics may also help you stand out in front of recruiters.

Finally, if you obtain an M.Stat degree, you will be eligible for a career in the Indian Statistical Services, whose exam is held annually by UPSC.

At DU, you must get at least 70% and assimilate any theories you learn so that you can apply them to real-world problems. This will benefit you in the long run because you will be more likely to enjoy the subject and express enthusiasm when discussing it in interviews or when writing SOPs. 

If you are a reading enthusiast and loves to write with a great hold of Grammar, go for English Hons. You should not choose this as your 2nd option because the course is very hectic and requires a lot of concentration and interest. 

English Hons is often misunderstood only with British Literature which is not true. You will be reading literature around the world including American, African, European, and Indian. 

You must be regular to lectures as they are highly recommended. The faculty at Delhi University for this course is exceptional and their teachings should not be missed. You may find everything online but attending classes has its own advantages. 

You will definitely enjoy your experience in the classes while interacting with teachers. It is important to note that your attendance will play a major role in internal assessment.

This course, like any other from DU, may disappoint you if you intend to get a job solely based on your graduation. Expect no placement offers based on the subjects or knowledge you gained in this course. Most companies will offer you generic intern-level work (mostly BPOs), which will not include any of the subjects you studied during your graduation.

Furthermore, for those pursuing higher education, BBE (Hons) offers no special advantages. You must pass entrance exams for MBAs and MAs in economics to compete with students from other programs. There is a widespread misconception that BBE candidates are given preference in the MBE{(now MBA(BE)} selection process. This is not the case.

However, here are a few advantages, as well that need to be looked at:

To begin, regardless of which college you attend for BBE, people from other courses treat you with implicit respect. 

Second, passing the entrance exam helps you prepare for high-level exams like CAT, XAT, SNAP, CDSE, and others that are based on similar principles. 

Third, unlike Eco Hons and B.com, the syllabus prescribes chapters from a variety of MBA books. You may find it difficult to study, but you will be more knowledgeable in the end. 

Finally, you research SPSS and other business software that can help you stand out from the crowd.
