Hi,

The cut off in Lady Sri Ram College is generally very high for students willing to take admissions to any course but this year there is a lot of confusion regarding the marks scored by students in their boards so the cut off may vary considerably. So, nothing can be confirmed this year. However, 96.5% is a good score & this year you may have a chance to get admission in B A Honours in Journalism.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

The eligibility of UPSC CSE or any state level PSCs is simply graduation in any field from a recognized university, of course in case of state PSCs it's also mandatory for a candidate to have the reading, writing, and speaking knowledge of the regional language, see the syllabus of UPSC is more directed towards the study of history, sociology, polity, geography, economics, etc, those who pursue BBA are mostly inclined to work in corporate sector or they aim for MBA at later point, and Journalism/Anchor/Mass Communication studies are mostly suited to be working in media industry, but as I said there is no barrier of belonging to any specific stream when it comes to UPSC/state PSCs, also it's good to have a back up plan in this case, after completion of your graduation in any of these fields you can work in the related domain, gain some work experience, and later on if you still feel UPSC CSE is your calling you can go ahead with it, there have many successful aspirant who have followed this route, the rest is upto you to decide, you are a better judge of your areas of interest, skills, aptitude, kind of job profile you are looking at to be working in future.

Hello Jhanvi... Greetings of the day!

Journalism course is easier than law in terms of complexity and duration. These are literally two different courses in every possible way. Both fields have their values and academic criteria. The difference is the duration and the future job scope. So, for LAW, you need to study for 5 years straight to complete the degree after that either you can go for LLM or you can start practising in courts. Also, you can handle criminal cases with just a BALLb degree but for that, you need to practise under the senior and experienced advocates, need to learn how to resolve the matters.

See, lawyers are very much in demand because they help in every action like in investments, purchasing land or house. So, the scope is indeed more and the salary ranges around 5 LPA to 7.5 LPA or very accordingly.

Coming to journalism there are many sub courses in this. You can opt for BJMC or even can do tech in TV PRODUCTION AND MEDIA. BJMC is of 3 years, the scope for journalism graduates is also good. An individual can opt for jobs in New agencies and also for various roles.

Starting salary is not that much but it increases with the experience. I would suggest you go with LAW as it has good market value and future scope.

If you have a query, kindly revert here.

Thank you!!
