Humanities & Social Sciences

Hello Kavita,
Both these subjects are good choices for doing PG. However from the perspective of landing a job, I think economics will beat history. This is so since it has many applications and tremendous opportunities are available in different fields to experts in this field. Be it personal finance, be it companies, as advisory, etc. while history has limited scope of teaching or few government jobs. Hence I would like to advise you that you should take economics.

Hello Saini,
There are some universities that conduct a common entrance test for admission into different PG courses. On the other hand there are universities which do not. Now it depends where you did your graduation and where you want to do your PG. I suggest you approach administrative staff of your college for finding this out. Best wishes.

If you are living in Kolkata then you can take up admission in distance mode in Calcutta University and MSW's duration is 2 years.

A Ph.D takes twice as long as a Bachelor's degree to complete. An average student takes 8.2 years to slog through a Ph.D programme and is 33 years old before earning that top Diploma. By that age, most Americans with mere Bachelor's degree are well into establishing themselves professionally.

Anindita,
First of all, your achievements are highly commendable. Yes, you can get such opportunities in Lady Irwin.

Sure, you can go for this, but we can't suggest you for this, as you are a student of other trade. So, it will be better to go for education. Both education and political Science have the nearly equivalent opportunity. Thank you and best of luck.

Sorry, but you are too late to apply now. The form is released in February and ends in March end.
