India

The answer is a big no.
Audio-video editing requires a candidate to not only learn the intricacies of the software, but also learn minor things like how to dump an audio/video file from the camera/any other recording equipment to the computer. This isn't something one can mug up from text books or internet because it requires the concerned person to learn the skills over time and enhance them for the better under able guidance of the teachers who can help in sorting of the pros and cons one needs to take care of during editing.
Also, an audio/video editor should also have a better insight into how can one record/shoot a certain audio/video in a way that least editing is required on the system. Without practical experience at the editing desk, this will be a task which will be very difficult to complete.
And this holds true for India as well as abroad.

Most important topics to focus on while preparing for B.Arch exams. It has 2 parts.
Part 1 being Mathematics & General Aptitude
Part 2 being Drawing test
Part 1 Consists of - MATHEMATICS
Algebra: Definitions of A. P. and G.P.; General term; Summation of first n-terms of series. Arithmetic/Geometric series, A.M., G.M. and their relation; Infinite G.P. series and its sum.
Logarithms: Definition; General properties; Change of base.
Matrices: Concepts of m x n (m 3, n 3) real matrices, operations of addition, scalar multiplication and
multiplication of matrices. Transpose of a matrix. Determinant of a square matrix. Properties of determinants (statement only). Minor, cofactor and adjoint of a matrix. Nonsingular matrix. Inverse of a matrix. Finding area of a triangle. Solutions of system of linear equations. (Not more than 3 variables).
Trigonometry: Trigonometric functions, addition and subtraction formulae, formulae involving multiple and submultiple angles, general solution of trigonometric equations. Properties of triangles, inverse trigonometric functions and their properties.
Coordinate geometry
3-Dimensional Co-ordinate geometry: Direction cosines and direction ratios, distance between two points
and section formula, equation of a straight line, equation of a plane, distance of a point from a plane.
Theory of Calculus
Application of Calculus
Permutation and combination
Statistics and Probability
GENERAL APTITUDE - Objects, texture related to architecture and built environment. Interpretation of pictorial compositions, Visualizing three-dimensional objects from two-dimensional drawing. Visualizing different sides of 3D objects. Analytical reasoning, mental ability (visual, numerical and verbal), General awareness of national/ international architects
Mathematical reasoning
Sets and Relations
Part 2 - DRAWING TEST
Understanding of scale and proportion of objects, geometric composition, shape, building forms and
elements, aesthetics, colour texture, harmony and contrast. Conceptualization and Visualization through
structuring objects in memory. Drawing of patterns - both geometrical and abstract. Form transformations in 2D and 3D like union, subtraction, rotation, surfaces and volumes. Generating plan, elevation and 3D views of objects. Creating 2D and 3D compositions using given shape and forms. Perspective drawing, Sketching of urbanscape and landscape, Common day-to-day life objects like furniture, equipment etc., from memory.

TIP: Bachelor of Mass Media and BA in journalism are same courses minus the fact that some universities/colleges do not teach electronic media in BA (Journalism). Please check the details of the course before you apply for it in a certain college/university.
Both these courses require practical hands-on experience along with theoretical classes. For instance, theoretical knowledge about how to do reporting and specific tips for it can be mugged up from textbooks and written in the answer sheets for an exam but the skills come handy only when practical experience is gained on the field. Same goes for camera handling and video editing - which one cannot learn unless they have in-depth knowledge of the equipment they have to use. Hence, a distance learning in this course will not help the candidate who means to pursue a career in mass media.
This being said, if the candidate wants to do a degree only to get an 'undergraduate' tag in their CV and not take up the course as a platform to pursue their career then distance learning is your thing.
