Delhi University (DU)

Hi Vertika!
In 2013, the university had decided to do away with the entrance test and interview for selecting students for this course. Now, admissions for this course are taken on the cut-off list basis.

Check out the below link for your complete query:

Each website will rank the colleges differently, but amongst the best colleges for Political Science are Hindu, Miranda House, Kirori Mal and LSR.

Top 10 would be a difficult task for me as I cannot rank that many colleges, but some of the top and the best colleges from DU offering this course are Miranda House College, Hindu College, Kirori Mal College, LSR, Ramjas, Sri Venkateshwara College, Khalsa and Jesus and Mary.

No, it wouldn't as far as you have a recent character certificate of what were you up to during the gap year.

You should wait for the last year's cut-off and the vacant seats that are provided by Delhi University during the last phase of their admission process.

No, they consider best of four excluding physical education.

It is clearly mentioned in the guidelines of Delhi University that you can't opt for economics (Hons) if you haven't studied maths till 12th. You can't opt B.Com (Hons) too but you can go for B.Com programme.

It's not officially declared yet. Most probably, there might be entrance exams. Stay updated!

You will have to apply online for that. Your percentage for best four subjects will be considered which includes three main subject and one language subject. If you want to pursue B.Com (Hons) then you must have maths as a subject in 12th.
