Is there something called mercy pass in kerala university?

BS

B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering & MBA in Project Management, University of Kerala (2017)

There is no option for mercy pass at Kerala University. But you can get a mercy chance to qualify in their passed subjects.

This is the last chance given by the university to those who were unable to pass for the 3rd time.

The exam will be a regular one, tough enough as the usual standard of exams in Kerala University. The valuation is also strict, but here the cutoff mark is reduced to 30, instead of 40.

Is it necessary to register or pay fees for 2nd year in the 1st year itself for an IGNOU programme?

VS
Vikrant Singh Posted On : October 19th, 2022
Student at Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) (2019-present)

You do not have to necessarily pay your fees in the first year itself. If you do, you will benefit a lot from it. So yes it’s a luxury, not a necessity.

At IGNOU, you have to pay fees for only 2 years even if you take 5 years to complete the course. IGNOU exam fees are payable every time you appear, per course basis. Keep in mind that practical and theoretical exam fees are different for the same course.

Your course has a minimum of 2 to a maximum of 5 years of eligibility. It can be convenient if you deposit your fees for the second year and then opt for the exams within the stipulated 5 years. The major benefit will be that you become eligible to appear for exams in both years.

Keep the following points in mind regarding your eligibility to appear for an exam at IGNOU

  • You should have been registered for a course which is only possible after fee deposition.

  • After registering you should have completed the semester/year allocated.

  • Assignments must be submitted

  • Attendance must be complete (only if necessary)

  • The maximum period of registration validity for a 2-year programme is 5 years

  • You can appear for any course in any order.

  • If you have paid the fees for the 2nd year as well, you are free to merge both courses.

 Simply, by registering for the 2nd year as well, you become eligible to complete your course anytime within 5 years. It does not matter if you do not appear on your first-year exams or do not complete your assignments. You can do it conveniently within 5 years.

Are all the NLUs (National Law Universities) in India good? Or is it only the top tier NLUs (Banglore, Nalsar, Kolkata, Jodhpur) worth considering?

SN
Sanchita Nayak Posted On : September 2nd, 2021
B.A. LLB. Law & Bachelor of Arts Degrees, National Law University, Mumbai (2020)

The tier-1 colleges are the best among the existing NLUs that include NLSIU Bangalore, NALSAR Hyderabad, and WBNUJS Kolkata. These colleges provide the best placement offers and internships. These colleges have expert faculty that can enhance your skills in the related fields along with the exposure of moot courts with universities like Harvard University, Yale University, and many others.

Now apart from tier-1 colleges, NLIU Bhopal, NLU Jodhpur, GNLU Gujarat are also good in terms of faculty, internships, and placement opportunities. NLU Delhi is a reputed college and has a locational advantage. 

Among the new NLUs, NLU Mumbai is quite promising and maintains a consistently good record.

But other than the above-mentioned colleges, other NLUs are not that good and you will not have the exposure and internship opportunities.

Do VMMC MBBS students have secured seats for PG in VMMC?

Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : September 25th, 2023

No, VMMC MBBS students do not have secured seats for PG in VMMC. Here is how the internal quota of the university works

Once the students complete their UG course from their college, they're eligible for the internal quota of PG seats of their University and not the specific college. This means that the internal quota is for the university and not the college. In your case, the internal PG quota belongs to IPU and not VMMC. So, Students of all the colleges under IPU are eligible for IPU PG seats. 

Earlier there was only VMMC (UG) under it, Mao PG seats were easily available in VMMC and RML, so the seats were kind of secured. But with more and more colleges under IPU, the PG quota of IPU too has lost much of its value.

So, the VMMC MBBS students don't have secured PG seats.

What is your review of Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU)?

SD
Saikat Das, Posted On : October 22nd, 2021
studied at Savitribai Phule Pune University (2020)

One of my friends recently graduated from Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU). According to her, it is better to do anything rather than joining this institute. She mentioned some of the reasons that made her feel this way.

  • The institute only focuses on making money and not actual education.
  • The syllabus and curriculum followed by the institute are outdated.
  • Practical training is not properly given, making students lag behind the industry demands.
  • Basic things like a proper academic calendar are not provided.
  • Re-evaluation is time-consuming and usually not done properly.
  • A 60% from SPPU is not considered good enough for admission to other colleges. They do not consider it as first class.
  • They are known to have the worst and uncooperative staff members. They are not at all helpful or considerate about any problem.

It is suggested that you do not opt for SPPU as they are highly unprofessional. They do not have a proper way to conduct classes, assemblies, extracurricular activities and get involved in everything half-heartedly. SPPU is a good example of how a university should be not.
