Hey there,

Of course you are eligible for NET exam. Any Candidate who has a post graduation from a recognised university is eligible. IGNOU is an ugc approved University m hence your master's degree is enough. It doesn't matter the subject you taken for your bachelors degree. You must have a post graduation. Thats it. Dont worry. You can write net exam.

Hope this helped. Thank you.

Hello aspirant,

Hope you are doing absolutely great.

So with regard to your query, YES you can pursue MA from distant education and Bed from regular mode. It is accepted by UGC to do same courses at a time where one is distant and other regular. Also, IGNOU allows you to do MA course through online and distance mode as well.

Hope this helps you!!

Hello aspirant,

YES, you can do M.Com (//M.Com) from any Distance based University,. like IGNOU, after completing your MBA. However, it might not be recommended to pursue one immediately after completing an M.Com . The reason one says this is that, without additional work experience, the incremental benefit of an MBA over an M.Com would be marginal at best.

On the other side, IGNOU is an approved and accredited university by the UGC and NAAC with an A grade. The university is valued and has genuine worth in the market, hence, an MCom degree from there will hold credibility . IGNOU is also a really affordable university; it means that the courses offered here are at a reasonable cost.

Further, to know more about the M.Com (//M.Com) course, you can follow the below mentioned link to know more about it : https://www.careers360.com/courses/m-com-master-of-commerce

i hope that this will help.

Hi shobhit,

The Eligiblty criteria for UPSC candidates is they must have passed or in their bachlor or masters degree. It means they must hold a degree to be eligible for UPSC exam.

Refer to these articles: https://competition.careers360.com/exams/upsc-cse/articles

Hope this helps you.

Wishing you a very good luck:)

Hi shobhi,

No it will not affect your marks in interview.

Studying from Indira Gandhi national open university has never anything related to upsc.

Even the eligiblty criteria for UPSC candidates is they must have passed or in their bachlor or masters degree. It means they must hold a degree to be eligible for UPSC exam.

Interview never looks for the college only your knowledge of the question they ask matters.

Hope this helps you !!!

Thank you and very good luck:)))

Hello Aspirant,

First of all, don't be discouraged by this all this. The positive thing that happened is that you got selected for a job according to your qualification.
BPP or Bachelor's Preparatory Program furnished by Indira Gandhi National Open University is a course an individual can do before a graduation course. This is for the students who have not passed 10+2 and want to do graduation. This course is for 6 months and can be extended up to 2 years. There are several BPP courses in subjects like Social Sciences, Commerce, Science etc. I have to inform you that this course is not at all equivalent to a 10+2 level. The company in which you got the job might be looking for someone who had done 10+2 in any stream. So, they might have rejected you for this. BPP is adequate and acceptable for some jobs. But most authorities look for a student who did complete his 10+2. They want someone who has done 10+2+3 level. You don't need to worry you can give your class the 11th and 12th exams in private or in distance mode also. NIOS or any other valid board from your state who furnishes this can come to your rescue.
NIOS is a very distinguished Board of education as CBSE or ICSE. It gives school education through distance mode. You can choose this under several subjects. You can also prefer the stream you like.
Application payments
Exam payment- INR 250/- per subject.
Additional payment for practicals in subjects possessing theory and practicals - INR 120/- per subject.

Not at all, those who pursue MBA, most of them are from science backgrounds like some are IITians or from engineering background or having Bachelor's degree in science stream. So it is not necessary but if you can brush up your knowledge then it is always beneficial.

College Infrastructure

The IGNOU campus is very huge. The campus has a well- furnished library, computer labs and online learning support. Online study materials also available including video lectures and they are accessible from anywhere.

Best Distance Learning University.

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

IGNOU'S infrastructure is a mixed bag: functionally brilliant at the core (the books and the digital access) but often administratively frustrating at the local level. It works best for self-motivated learners who treats the local centre as a last resort, not a primary resource.

Excellent

Verified Review

College Infrastructure
