Is it safe to take PG outside Doon Business School?

YA
Yash Arora Posted On : June 26th, 2023
Studied at Doon Business School (Dehradoon)

The advantages of taking PG outside the campus are as follows. 

  • Firstly, it may help in saving the cost of rent as the college hostel charges a yearly amount.
  • Second, living outside the campus gives the option to shift to another place in case of dissatisfaction with the room.
  • Third, the time restriction is less or none outside PG, unlike the college hostel where there is a time restriction of 7-8 pm to enter.
  • Fourth, for those who want to party or stay out at night, living outside the PG is more feasible, as one has to mail the college for any night out, and parents have to confirm it through a call.
  • Last, it is easy to find a PG outside the college using pages like "Search your Space," and it helps avoid unreasonable penalties charged to students.

On the other hand, the disadvantages of living outside the campus are: 

  • You have to manage yourself, from cleaning the room to studying, which can be very hectic during exhaustive lectures.
  • You will be responsible to look for dabba systems or eat food in restaurants as there is no college mess.
  • Lastly, there is no security inside or outside the campus, which may cause concern for students.

While living outside the campus can save costs and provide more freedom, it may come with additional responsibilities like managing oneself and arranging for food. Ultimately, the decision should depend on personal preferences and priorities.

How tough is it to get into Doon Business School for a BBA? What are some of the questions asked in the interview?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : June 3rd, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

It’s not very difficult to get admission into Doon Business School for BBA. It takes admission through a written aptitude test or WAT. WAT examination tests your quantitative and analytical skills and checks whether you’ll be able to cope with the subjects of the course you’re getting yourself into or not. WAT is an easy-to-moderate test and it’s only part of the selection process. Your past academic records, resume, and personal interview play a very important role in the selection process. You might get a short case study to analyze in your interview. The case would loosely be based on an office incident, a company or a person. Just remember to ask important questions and lay down your assumptions in front of them. Don’t hesitate to ask questions since the panel is judging you on the basis of your approach.

Which university should I join for an MBA with good placement Jamia Millia Islamia, Chandigarh University or Doon Business School?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : June 3rd, 2023
lives in New Delhi

If we are simply comparing the colleges on the basis of ROI, JMI would be your best bet since it gets you a job with an average pay of 5 lacs with a mere fee of nearly 50000. But if you want to get a proper campus exposure you could think of going to Doon Business School. Doon charges nearly 5c lacs for the entire period of two years and has an average package of 6v lacs. You also need to emphasize the factors that are important to you. JMI is a central university and has a very rich legacy but Chandigarsh University on the other hand is quite popular for its pedagogy and professors. My personal choice would be to go for JMI because of the enticing ROI and small batch size.
