I am a student of B.Com. (pass) final year
DU. I want to take up MCA after graduation .Am I eligible to do it from
universities like DU.JNU.KU. Roorkee University etc? I had maths till
10+2 but not at the graduation level. Please advice me which
universities can I apply to and what are the job opportunities?
A. MCA is a three year course which imparts all software skills and some
management’s skills, as well . The entrance exam tests your proficiency
in Math’s upto+2or even higher level. though a few institutes, restrict
it to class tenth level, DU,JNU and pune University’s entrance exams are
the to test to crack .Most are of two hours’ duration and objective
type. Some also test reasoning computer fundamentals etc. Since you
already had math’s in +2 you are eligible for almost every entrance
exam. The minimum eligibility may change from year to year ,but usually
they make things easier for the aspirants. Nevertheless ,you need to
keep an eye on the advertisement which should start appearing shortly.
As far as job prospects go ,they are extremely good since almost every
industry is capitalizing on the information explosion and technology
penetration.

I am keen on taking a course in mass
communication .Could you please suggest what course can I take ? Is
there an age bar or eligibility conditions ? What are the job
opportunities before/behind camera? Is it worth doing from IGNOU?
Mass communication includes dissemination of news, information
,entertainment and public messages to a large section of the masses.
Radio, television ,film ,journalism, advertising are the main mediums.
There could be several options but you first need to identify what field
interests you the most . Courses are generally available at the
post-graduate level, though Delhi University also offers a bachelor’s
degree in journalism .Jaima Millia Islamia offers an MA ,which includes
television ,film video and print journalism ,while the Indian Institute
of Mass Communication offers a PG diploma. At some DU colleges- such as
Kamala Nehru and Delhi college of Arts & Commerce –advertising is also
offered as a BA integrated course which includes modules in sales &
marketing. Like wise , Indra Prastha College offers a BA in Mass
Communications, While Makhanlal Chatturvedi Rashtriya Patrakarita
Visvavidyalaya, Bhopal offers both BA and MA level courses .There is no
specified upper age limit. Although IGNOU and other open universities do
offer mass communications ,It is advisable to do a regular course as
there is lot of practical training involved that cannot be done through
correspondence.

journalism, publishing or mass communication(TV & films, advertising,
PR).Alternatively you can also opt for corporate communications, script
writing fashion, airlines /cabin crew ,event management, etc. If you are

I want to pursue MBA but am confused from
where should I do it.I have already completed B Com(pass).Kindly inform
me whether XLRI conducts a part-time MBA and also the date of the
entrance exams.
If you have done a three-year B.Com (pass)and if your percentage is 50
or above then with a little preparation,you would be able to do it from
any b-school.this is also the right time to scan newspaper for
announcement to admissions. Yes XLRI does conduct a part-time Mba but it
is of three years duration and meant only for working executives with
sufficient experience. The XLRI admission test is, usually held on the
first Sunday of every year. That is to say next year, it should fall on
6th January 2002.

I am a Ist divisioner ISC (PCM) currently
doing BA (history) as a regular candidate. I am also doing BCA from
IGNOU and BE via correspondence. Please suggest in which subject should
I pursue engineering and what about job placement.
A. Aren’t you handling too many things at the same time? You must choose
between history or engineering. And since engineering is a very
practical subject ,even the correspondence course would demand a lot of
your time. I suggest that you try jfor admission to one of the regular
engineering colleges again next year. That gives you a better chance of
getting a job.
As far as the branches are concerned your choice should depend mainly on
your area of interest. Traditionally, electronics and mechanical
engineering have been the most popular .And there is maximum scope for
jobs in these areas. Computer engineering has also really come up, while
telecom engineering is another emerging field that will offer plenty of
jobs.
As far as jobs are concerned engineers are mainly employed in the
government sector, in public sector organizations in private companies
as commissioned officers in the defense service, in research
organizations and laboratories as technical experts on engineering
projects in banks and financial corporations. An engineer can also set
up his own small unit/company or constancy.

the most sought after institutes offering the course are the Jawaharlal

I am appearing for Bcom (final) and want
to do MBA.But I have some queries:
a) What is the difference between MAT and CAT?
b) How much percentage in graduation is needed for admission in a good
institute?
c) Suggest me some books to prepare for English test in MBA entrnace. ?
MAT is Management Aptitude Test conducted by All India Management
Association (AIMA) and CAT is Common Admission Test conducted by IIMs.
CAT is for admission to IIMs and the other leading business schools such
as MDI, Gurgaon. MAT screens candidates for other national level
business schools. Technically you would need a minimum of 50% to get
admission in any of the leading business schools. Also there are no
separate books to prepare English for MBA entrance. The regular material
has sectioned on it too.

I want to do MBA but I am confused from
where should I do it. I have done Bcom (P). I want to Know if XLRI
conducts part-time MBA .When does the institute hold its entrance
examinations?
If you have done a three-year Bcom (P) and if your final aggregate
percentage is 50+,then with a good amount of preparation you should be
able to do MBA from any of the leading business schools in the country.
This is the right time to keep looking at the daily newspapers for
announcements for admissions. Yes XLRI does conduct a part-time MBA but
it is of three years duration and meant for only the working executives
with sufficient experience to see them through the programme. The XLRI
admissions test is, usually the first Sunday of the year.
