Hello Aspirant,

Following is the list of books you must study for M.Sc. Life Science:

1. Cell biology-Lodish
2. Biochemistry- Lehninger
3. Stryer and Harper are quite good too
4. Molecular biology- Bruce Alberts
5. Microbiology - Prescott
6. Immunology - Kuby
7. Genetics- Gardner
8. Developmental biology- Gilbert
9. Biotechnology- Glick
10. Plant and animal physiology, evolution and ecology - 11th and 12th ncert books are enough
11. Other than these you can always go for Life sciences books and practice books by Pranav Kumar -pathfinder academy

Hope this information helps you. Feel free to ask more questions.

Have a good day!!

Hi Prema!

The Age Eligibility Criteria for AFCAT Flying Branch is between 20-24 years of age as of January, 2022. That you must be born between January 2, 1998 and January 1, 2002. So, you will not be eligible for this category!

For Ground Duty, your age should be between 20-26 years of age as of January 1, 2022. You must be born between January 2, 1996 and January 1, 2002. So, for this you are eligible!

When it comes to Education, you should have 60% in Physics and Maths in 12th and B.E/B.Tech or a minimum of 4 year degree for qualification! Or B.Sc. in Finance. If these didn't match then, that might have been the problem!

Hope this is helpful!

All the best!

hi,

see tier 1 institute has admission process based on merit score in qualifying exam and personal Interview, some of the institute has written test to shortlist candidates. so you have to check the official website to check the admission process and it liable to change in every year.

Hello,

Presidency University Master Degree Entrance Test (PUMDET) is conducted by West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board. This entrance exam offers Post Graduate courses to candidates in the Presidency University. The exam is conducted in offline mode. The syllabus of PUMDET life science includes the common topics at the B.Sc (hons) of Botany / Zoology / Physiology / Microbiology / Biotechnology, this  include the topics such as Cell & Molecular Biology, Functioning of the cells and knowledge of systems, Microbiology, Biostatistics, Immunology, Genetics, Environmental Science, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Nutrition.

So, you can follow your B.Sc syllabus and practice sample papers and pervious years PUMDET question paper for the preparation of the exam.

You can download PUMDET 2019 question paper of life science from the link below

Good luck!

Hi Aspirant,

Both fields are good as both of them can give you good teaching opportunities plus if you go for bsc physical science with chemistry then you can go in for chemistry teaching in some good schools along with other physical science subjects.If you opt for bsc life science you can master teaching in general science as well as hysical science such as chemistry,physics etc.

Hope it helps!!

Hi candidate,

It's very sad to hear that you feel that you have failed in life. My dear friend life is so long and gives a several opportunities to get back into the mainstream and lead from the front.

I am sure that there are chances that you might feel depressed or or get shattered  by disappointments or failures, but you have to move on as the past cannot be changed but the present can lead to a better future.

Keep faith!! Believe in yourself!!

Hello,

For  Microbiology student, so CSIR NET exam with a Life Sciences subject is the best option for you. There  is not any separate syllabus for the microbiology students because the microbiology comes under life science stream, therefore, you have to cover all the syllabus of life science,

The syllabus for life science :

MOLECULES AND THEIR INTERACTION RELAVENT TO BIOLOGY

CELLULAR ORGANIZATION

FUNDAMENTAL PROCESSES

DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY

SYSTEM PHYSIOLOGY - PLANT

SYSTEM PHYSIOLOGY - ANIMAL

INHERITANCE BIOLOGY

DIVERSITY OF LIFE FORMS

EVOLUTION AND BEHAVIOUR ECOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES

APPLIED BIOLOGY

METHODS IN BIOLOGY

Hello aspirant,

Hope you are doing well

I think there would  not be any loss if you do a msc life science from any University irrespective of government or private .

You can proceed with a good college to do msc .

Hope this helps you

All the best!

Hello,
