Which university will be best for statistics University of Allahabad or University of Lucknow?

RS
Reshmi Sen, Posted On : November 8th, 2021
studied at University of Allahabad (2018)

Both University of Allahabad and University of Lucknow are good in their own ways. They also consist of their fair share of flaws.

Here’s mentioning some facts about both these colleges I got to know online:

  • The faculty of both colleges are really good. They are highly experienced and extremely cooperative. 
  • Subjects like statistics, geology, zoology, astronomy are considered good by students at University of Lucknow.
  • Both have a strong alumni network.
  • Many consider Allahabad University better than Lucknow University due to its central status.

But after considering everything, you need to keep one thing in mind that the institution is not the major factor for your success. It is your dedication and hard work that will help you reach your goal.

studied at Ramjas College, University of Delhi (2019)

Yes, Ramjas College is a good option for Statistics (Hons.). It has one of the best faculties when it comes to Statistics. Also you will have a number of seniors who will help you with preparation by sharing previous question papers and even their first hand experience of the examinations.

What is the cutoff for a B Stat at Asutosh College Kolkata?

SR
Senjuti Roy Posted On : October 25th, 2021
BBA from Vivekananda Institute of Professional Studies (2020)

The required prerequisite for doing a B.Stat at Asutose College is 50% in the 12th standard. Having Statistics/Mathematics in your 10+2 is mandatory.

Students who have passed the 10+2 or equivalent examination and have also passed the English test with full marks of not less than 100 are eligible to apply.

If you have a lapse of more than 3 years from the year of passing the previous qualifying examination or the cessation of a recognized regular Course of Study after passing the previous qualifying test, then you are not eligible to apply.

To determine eligibility for admission to the Honors Course, add the marks in the top four subjects. Marks obtained in mandatory Environmental Education/Studies, on the other hand, will not be factored into the final grade. You must have a minimum of 50% in aggregate and pass Mathematics.

Students from the SC/ST or OBC categories need to have a minimum of 40% in the previous qualifying examination.

What are some reasons to not choose B.Stat at ISI Kolkata?

SB
Soutrik Banerjee Posted On : August 22nd, 2022
studied at Indian Statistical Institute

Life at ISI Kolkata isn’t similar to that of other typical colleges, where you can bunk classes, mug up concepts right before the examination, and score passing grades. It maintains a high standard of academics. The curriculum and course work is extremely grueling. Many students find it difficult to even score passing marks in some courses. ISI doesn’t give any option to retake a course. Many students take admission at ISI for the free-of-cost world-class education, it offers. This is not a good motivation for choosing the institute. Choose ISI Kolkata B.Stat, only if you are interested in the course.

Which course should I choose if I get a chance to study at ISI Kolkata, a B.Math or a B.Stat?

AS
Aniket Sinha Posted On : October 7th, 2021
Studied MS(QMS) from Indian Statistical Institute (2018)

Both B.Stat and B.Math are different courses being offered at different campuses at ISI Kolkata and ISI Bangalore respectively. There are only a few common subjects in both courses. 

The choice ultimately depends on your choice and interest. You can go through the syllabus of both courses and understand the topics. Find whichever interests you, you can choose to be research-oriented like B.math students or go for M.stat or other courses, if you choose so.

You can apply for only 1 course because the institute conducts the entrance of both courses at the same time and day. You will be able to appear for only one of them.

ISI Kolkata is considered to be a good institute for B.Stats. It accepts admission purely on the basis of the entrance exam and the interview. The minimum eligibility criteria for the entrance is 70% in class 12th boards.

Which one is better for keeping further studies as an option, an IPM at IIM Indore or a B.Stat at ISI?

SM
Sujoy Majumder Posted On : September 3rd, 2021
Studied Finance & Marketing at Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode (2018)

Both the above-mentioned options are excellent to be considered. The IIMs prepares you to manage people and processes, whereas the ISI prepares you to be excellent quants.

Many IIM graduates work as quantitative analysts, they get the highest-paying jobs. If the ISI course is more appropriate, you could take the Bachelor of Statistics course. Quantitative analysts, on the other hand, tend to wear out soon, due to heavy workload.

An IIM education provides you with a broad perspective on management as well as access to a large alumni network. So, if you want to work your way up the corporate ladder, an IIM would be a better option. At the end of the day, it's up to you to decide where your priorities lie.

Which is a better option for studying statistics, St. Xavier's College, Kolkata or Presidency University, Kolkata?

KV
Karan Verma Posted On : February 22nd, 2021
B.Sc Mathematics, Presidency University, Kolkata (2018)

Both colleges are great options for studying statistics. 

Presidency University has a glorious history and the department of Statistics is one of the best departments. The university has great alumni which makes it score higher in terms of ‘Heritage’. One of the most famous names among them is P.C. Mahalanobis. There are dedicated faculty members like Prof. BR and Prof. PD, who is an alumnus himself. 

One of my friends has Statistics as his electives but he never got the chance to be taught by these reputed faculty members. Students are highly dedicated and excels in their respective university exams.

Graduates from this college pursued post-graduate studies from reputed universities like ISI, CMI, IMSc, etc. If you have Honours in Statistics with Mathematics and Economics, then it will be a great combination.

In terms of environment, you will get a sense of freedom at Presidency and a change to form a opinion on various aspects of life. However, St. Xavier’s College is also good but it is very strict and you will get a feel of school there. It is known for its discipline while Presidency University is know for its creativity.
