What is meant by best four for DU?

AL
Aradhya Lamba Posted On : October 10th, 2022
BSc in Food Technology, University of Delhi

The rules for calculating the Best Four vary depending on the course you want to take. Each course will have its own set of rules for computing it. Some courses will make some subjects mandatory, which means that whether your score is high or low in them, you must include them in those four subjects in order to be admitted to that course.

The four subject criteria will not be present in every course. Some courses, such as Physics, Chemistry, Electronics, Instrumentation, Polymer Science, and others, will only consider your PCM percentage, which is your marks in (Physics + Chemistry + Mathematics) divided by three. Some Biology courses will only consider the PCB percentage, which is (Physics + Chemistry + Biology)/3. 

Many things will be said to you about admission to the University of Delhi, but many of them will be incorrect. To obtain accurate information, one must visit the college itself. Attempt to visit various colleges on a regular basis. Remember to take chances even if your score is less than 90%. You will have a better chance of admission if you visit colleges on a regular basis.

Can I prepare in 1 month for a B.Ed entrance exam at DU?

I
Inayat Posted On : October 10th, 2022
BA English literature from University of Delhi

The requirements for B.Ed admission to DU are as follows:

Written Exam:

If you work smartly and analyze the pattern of questions asked in previous examinations, devote a focused time period to preparation, followed by sufficient practice tests, you can certainly clear in one month. 

If you are well-versed in your subject matter, there is very little required for you to do. Hard work comes after good fortune. So, first and foremost, your planning should be smart, and then, you must work and prepare well beyond the planned strategy. Each of us has our own set of self-beliefs and abilities. Thus, you do not have to compare yourself with any other person. Just believe in yourself and go ahead. 

Interview: 

During the interview, a panel of teachers/interviewers/professors will fire off all sorts of questions at you, including subject questions, psychology questions, general knowledge questions, confidence check questions, and, most importantly, your honesty, which is one of the most important aspects of being a good teacher. A good strategy, a lot of planning, focused work, confidence as well as a strong belief in yourself, are required.

With 95% in CBSE, should I try for a B.Com (Hons) from DU or pursue BBA from Christ University?

LK
Lakshay Kapoor Posted On : October 6th, 2022
Studied B.A. ECONOMICS (SSSIHL) at University of Delhi (Graduated 2018)

It all depends on what you want to do. Here are a few things to think about: 

  • Flexibility -You have a lot of time at DU. You can study Actuarial Science, CFA, CFP, Data Analyst, CIMA, ACCA, CS, CWA, and many other things. As a result, more career opportunities are available at DU. Christ is very strict about attendance, and you don't have time, so you must concentrate solely on the course.

  • Fees - College fees are approximately Rs 12000 per year, as opposed to Rs 1,000,000 in Christ.

  • Exposure - There are numerous societies at DU that can provide excellent exposure. Society is better in Christ, but imagine 4000 students competing for that opportunity. Furthermore, DU departmental and college fest are better experiences for students than Christ because students manage everything from arranging funds to organizing every event without much help from authorities. Furthermore, you can compete in competitions organized by various DU colleges ranging from debate, music, and dance to mock stock, treasure hunt, and beg, borrow, and steal. However, because you are required to give regular presentations in class and because of the diversity of students, Christ aids in the development of an average person's personality. 

  • Placement- At 95%, you can get DCAC or Shaheed Bhagat College, which do not have a placement boost of more than 20-30%. However, in Christ, you will receive more than 70% placement ( depends upon course though ). The average salary given is not significantly different. (Approximately 3 to 4). However, some companies that offer better packages do come in Christ ( i.e above 5 lac ) Some sales and marketing firms unrelated to your course may be present in DU.

  • Curriculum - The curriculum at DU is outdated and lacks a practical aspect, whereas at Christ, they will provide you with numerous case studies and a rigorous syllabus. During your three-year tenure at Christ, you will be required to complete an internship and work in an NGO.

  • Emotional Benefit - Because Christ has a good ranking, a large crowd, a great environment, and a good infrastructure, you will feel more confident. It might not be the case in DU.

  • Faculty- Professors at DU are far more qualified than those at other colleges, and some are published authors as well. However, because they are a government institution, some do not teach at all and waste time. There are a few who teach exceptionally well. In Christ, even if they are not college or research paper qualified, almost all of them teach and even encourage students to come to them. 

  • Alumni & Peer Group - Alumni of Christ are not strong enough to make a significant impact. North campus colleges in DU have excellent alumni. In terms of the south campus, it is the same as Christ for colleges such as SBSC, DCAC, Gargi, and so on. Peer group is also similar in terms of hard work and intelligence (though it may be higher in DU). However, the overall alumni of Delhi University are far more accomplished than Christ ever will be. 


Colleges also assist in providing an initial push. It makes no difference where you went to college once you get a job. So it all depends on your goals and the type of person you are. If you can plan and follow it, you will have more time to do things that will help you achieve your goals more easily because Delhi has the best coaching facilities for everything. If you simply cannot, choose Christ because you will be required to work due to regular assignments, which instills discipline in a person.

What are the future prospects of getting a BSc degree from DU? What are the best colleges in DU?

PM
Prashant Mathur Posted On : October 12th, 2022
Chemistry Honors from University of Delhi

 In today's world, getting a bachelor's degree from any college isn't worth much.

DU has a brand name, but if your overall grades aren't good enough, having a degree from Delhi University is pointless.

By providing many resources and an intellectual environment, Delhi University will assist you in exploring various aspects of your personality.

However, if you have a bachelor's degree in any of the Science subjects or even Mathematics, you will need to do a master's or even a PhD to get a decent-paying job.

However, if you are an SRCC or Stephens graduate, you may be able to get a good placement from the college itself if you have a degree in Arts or Commerce with above-average marks.

The best colleges vary depending on your subject, such as SRCC for those interested in commerce. Stephen's is also regarded as one of the most prestigious universities. Other good colleges include Miranda House, Hindu, and Lady Shri Ram.

Which is better for M.Sc in environmental science DU or JNU?

VG
Vedant Gautam Posted On : October 12th, 2022
Lived in New Delhi

Both Delhi University and Jawahar Lal Nehru University offer Master's degrees in Environmental Sciences. However, there is a difference in the degree offered, which is primarily due to the approach to the subject. Candidates will be enrolled in the Masters of Environmental Studies programme at Delhi University, while the Environmental Sciences programme at JNU.

The distinction is due to the approach taken in developing the curriculum. Students at Delhi University are taught the socio-economical aspects of environmental sciences in addition to developing an understanding of the subject in the context of physicochemical and biological aspects of the environment (and their interactions). Subjects taught include "social perspectives of environmental studies" and "environmental economics." There is also a Masters in Arts (MA) programme for students with a background in the humanities.

The emphasis at Delhi University is on environmental ecology, pollution sciences, and biotechnology. Remote sensing, conservation sciences, statistics, geology, and environmental impact assessment are among the subjects taught. I believe the emphasis at JNU is more on the scientific aspect of the subject (which somehow seems legitimate since the degree is being offered for Masters in Science). Furthermore, 70-80% of the curriculum is shared by both universities. Though the JNU syllabus is extensive in terms of subjects such as hydrology and the fundamental principles/technical aspects of water and pollution movement.

Is DU SOL or DU regular better for the UPSC?

AB
Anamika Banerjee Posted On : June 6th, 2022
studied at University of Delhi

DU regular colleges will be better for UPSC preparation. The syllabus for most courses matches with UPSC syllabus. If your aim is UPSC, choose your course accordingly. Opt for a subject, you are going to take as optional. 

Being a regular student of DU, you will be able to attend seminars/discussions which can help a lot in personality development. Which is a major requirement for UPSE. 

If you can manage regular classes along with UPSE preparation, choose DU regular.

Can Physical Education be included in the calculation of percentage of Best Four Subjects in Delhi University for B.A programming?

AG
Arpita Garg Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
Studied Bachelor of Commerce with Honours at University of Delhi (2019)

Yes, physical education can be included while calculating your best four for Delhi University but it has a disadvantage of 2.5%.

This means that 2.5% will be deducted from the total percentage of your best four subjects. This calculation of the best four is different for every course and very few colleges have a different method of selecting the best four and that is also limited to some special courses.

Apart from this, all the colleges have a similar procedure for the best four calculations. Delhi University releases an admission bulletin every year and you can consult it for better understanding.
