You are doing BA Psychology Honours from IGNOU. As per the new RCI (Rehabilitation Council of India) rules, to become a licensed clinical psychologist, you must complete either a 4-year UG degree in psychology or a 3-year UG plus 1-year bridge course. IGNOU does not offer a 4th year or any bridge course right now.

If you are in your first or second year, you can think about taking admission in a 4-year UG course in psychology from any regular or online university that follows NEP 2020. This will make you eligible for clinical psychology later.

If you are in the final year or already finished your degree from IGNOU, then you have to wait and see if any RCI-approved universities start offering a 1-year bridge course. Some colleges may start this soon as per new rules.

You can also finish your BA from IGNOU and then do a normal M.A. in Psychology. After that, you can work in psychology fields that do not require RCI license like counselling, teaching, or industrial psychology. But to become a clinical psychologist with an RCI license, your degree must follow the new 4-year rule or have a bridge year.

It is a good idea to contact RCI directly or call universities like NIMHANS, CIP Ranchi or others that offer M.Phil Clinical Psychology, and ask if they will accept your current degree or not.

With your general rank of 23637, getting a seat in Sri Krishna College of Engineering and Technology (SKCET), Coimbatore for the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AIML) course is difficult.

In recent years, the closing rank for AIML at SKCET was around 18000 for the general category. Your rank is higher than that, so it may not be possible in regular counseling.

You can still try for management quota or look for similar courses in other good colleges that accept higher ranks. It’s good to keep backup options ready.

You can also try for courses like Information Technology or AI & Data Science in colleges with higher closing ranks.

Hii,
Scoring full marks in Biology in CUET is a great achievement, and it shows your strength in the subject. But low scores in Chemistry and Physics may affect your chances for some specific science courses, it doesn’t mean that you cannot get admission anywhere especially when you're open to exploring a variety of science-related courses.When it comes to getting into reputed central universities like Delhi University (DU), Banaras Hindu University (BHU), and Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI), admission is typically based on your best-of-subject scores, depending on the course you're applying for. For many B.Sc. (Hons.) programs, especially in Biology-related fields like Botany, Zoology, Environmental Science, or Life Sciences, your Biology score will be given the highest weightage.
At DU, different colleges and courses have their own subject combinations and cutoffs. If you're applying for a course like B.Sc. (Hons.) in Botany or Zoology, many colleges may consider Biology and English as core subjects and might accept low Chemistry/Physics marks if your overall percentile remains competitive.

On the other hand at BHU, they conduct CUET-based admissions, and you still have a fair shot for science-related courses, especially in the biological sciences domain. They often publish a merit list that gives more weightage to your best-scoring subjects.
Jamia Millia Islamia offers various science programs and some vocational or interdisciplinary courses that may not strictly demand high Physics and Chemistry marks if you're strong in Biology.

Since you're ready to take admission in any science-related course, consider looking into programs like:B.Sc. in Life Sciences,B.Sc. in Microbiology or Biotechnology,B.Sc. in Nutrition & Dietetics and more You can check

Also, you can check state universities or other central institutes where competition may be slightly lower and cutoff combinations may be more flexible.

Thank you and all the best for your admission!

Hello aspirant,
Deen Dayal Upadhyay College does not offer a BBA program; instead, it provides a Bachelor of Management Studies (BMS) degree. For eligibility in BMS at DDU, candidates must have studied Mathematics (or Applied Mathematics) in Class 12. This requirement applies to all candidates, regardless of board or category. So, if you haven't taken Maths in 12th, you cannot apply for BMS at DDU. As for BBA, since DDU doesn't offer it, that option isn't available there either.

If you're keen on pursuing BBA outside DDU without Maths, some private or state-level institutions may accept students without Maths, but in Delhi University, Maths is essential for BMS admission.

If your aspiration is to pursue an MBA at a top-tier program and you can handle the academic and financial demands, NMIMS can act as a launchpad. But if you’re concerned about cost, stress, or average outcomes, you may be better off at a reputable government or other private college offering BBA/BCom with lower fees and reasonable exposure.

• Pros: Strong brand name, academically rigorous, global curriculum, decent placements for top-performers.

• Cons: Expensive, highly competitive environment, strict academics, limited return on investment for average students.

Hey aspirant,
First off, congrats on getting into NMIMS Hyderabad for BBA! Now coming to your question — yes, it's a decent option, especially if you’re focused on doing an MBA later or want a structured BBA program with decent exposure.

The academics are well-designed — industry-oriented, with case studies, group projects, and a practical approach. Faculty are qualified, mostly corporate-background, but don’t expect a chill academic life — it’s quite professional.

When it comes to placements, don’t expect massive packages right after BBA. Average packages go around 3–4.5 LPA, sometimes higher if you build your resume smartly. Most students go for MBA after BBA, and NMIMS gives an edge in that direction.

The campus is clean, modern, but a bit isolated, since it’s on the outskirts. Hostel life is strict but okay — decent food, Wi-Fi, and basic facilities. The crowd is fairly good — focused, semi-academic vibe. There are clubs, fests, and presentations, but not the same level of freedom or fun you’d get at say, DU or Christ.

So is it worth it?
If you're serious about business studies, want a branded degree, and don’t mind a slightly structured and quiet life — then yes, NMIMS Hyderabad is worth it. Just remember, a lot depends on what you make of your three years. Get internships, upskill, and participate actively — and it’ll pay off.

With a SRM Phase 2 rank of 4988 and PCM aggregate of 57.66%, you may still be eligible for admission, as SRM requires a minimum of 50% aggregate in PCM. You can fill your choices like ECE with specialization in Data Science at KTR branch, but final allotment depends on seat availability and cutoff.
