Well, first let's look into these 2 courses in brief:

1. BSC GEOLOGY : it is a 3 year undergraduate programme whose focus is on earth science.

Eligibility:  Minimum 55% aggregate in class 12             with PCM.

Some of the best colleges are presidency college, hansraj college, st. Xavier's Mumbai, etc.

2. BSC AGRICULTURE

it is a four year undergraduate programme which primarily focuses on research and development of agricultural sector.

Eligibility: minimum 50% aggregate in class 12 with subjects physics,  chemistry and biology.

Fees : INR 2L- 3L is the average fee for this course.

Scope : as we know, india is an agriculture based economy,  almost 60%of our population is dependent on agriculture.  There are various career opportunities for bsc agriculture  such as

So, both of these courses are good, what matters is your interest mainly. Do whatever you feel will be more interesting for you, something you will enjoy.

But yeah,according to the statistics,  bscin agriculture has more scope in government jobs.

I hope my answer helps you.

Hello Aspirant,

Both Colleges are Good, It is quite difficult to say which one is the best. But I'll tell you which one is best. According to me BHU BSC Geology (honours) is best than KNIT Electrical. Because It's infrastructure is good, Atmosphere is also well, teachers are well experienced. It's cutoff and placement is also good. Some of the companies such as ONGC, Vedanta and CIL visit for the department of geology, BHU for campus placements. And in KNIT electrical all things are good but placements are quite good. In KNIT Electrical there are few students placed or few company will reached .

So BHU BSC Geology (honours) is better than KNIT Electrical.

I hope this information would be helpful for you.

All the best for your bright future ahead!!

Hello Aspirant,

Start a very high energy preparation for ateast 5 months before the date of the entrance exam. But you should start a silent preparation before 1 year atleast to crack with a good score in the exam.

Give special attention to some of the topics like

1. Physical Geology
2. Sedimentology
3. Applied Geology
4. Economic Geology
5. Geomorphology
6. Mineralogy
7. Petrology
8. The Planet

Check previous year question papers and go through the basics of each and every subject which is taught to you. The regular revision matters a lot more than any other things during the preparation time. At many points you will find that remembering all the things simultaneously becomes hard; make short key words based notes and map notes to quickly revise all points. All the important experimental questions, concepts must be written separately in a short note so as to keep them revising on one  go this will help you in NAT type questions. Refer good textbooks and keep solving and analyzing the questions. Try to be more concise and precise over concepts and basic knowledge rather than running on path of blind.

All The Best

Thank you, feel free to ask any questions anytime

Hi,

Dear Aspirant, we can make out from your question that you are probably asking about the details to take optional subject in your intermediate i.e 10+2

Well let me inform you that taking up an optional subject totally depends on you and the college if they have that particular subject as a part of the curriculum.

The schools take out a merit list for optional subjects if you qualify the merit the you will get that subject.

Thankyou

Hey there!

Both are some of the best Institutes in India. Firstly it depends on your choices. Do you want to pursue geology? Because it's really different from engineering which you would've initially goaled for. In terms of colleges, IIT Kharagpur is preferred over IIT BHU but both are great colleges, make a choice depending on what field you want to pursue.

hi,

see indian space research institute and defense research and development institute is prominent organization in india. however every year there is various recruitment comes through isro and drdo. the organization conducts written test of mcq type generally based on the work position. the recruitment process and written test and personal Interview rounds.

however it is not possibly say about which year recruitment would comes for geology professional. so it would be best for you if you get any job in iits placement.

First of all it's good to look somebody so clear about it's future . To  be an IAS officer you need to complete your bachelor degree and later that start your preparation for IAS like which subjects you are going to consider for the exam. Preparation is the only key for IAS. After Bachelor degree you are eligible for IAS exam just be update about the forms and the rules . Nothing special you need .

Hi Ishaan,

GATE is one of the most valuble examination conducted in India.

Through GATE qualifying  scores after MSc in geology you get following opportunities to choose from:-

2. you can apoly for private jobs

3. you can apply for PSU jobs

4. you can go for fellowship program in management.

So there are alot of good options for you if you clear GATE exam.
