Languages

As both are good but BA in German language would be the best as compared to the institute.

Hi,
There are several mobile apps available such as DUOLINGO. You can download it for free from Google Play.

Visit IGNOU's website. See the notification. Apply for the course you are interested in. Pay the fees and upload all the documents required. Your course will be started. Best of luck.

I am not sure M.Phil exists anymore, as the UGC doesn't approve of it, anymore. You have to go in for Ph.D. You may have to publish a couple of papers, before applying for Research. English Literature is offered all over India and there is no problem, on that count. The spade work must be completed, before finalizing admission in Ph.D. think of UGC NET also, first. The process is greater these days.

For basics of a language, you can visit saurabh shukla's youtube channel. It will help you a lot.

Many universities having humanities stream provide Ph.D. (English). You should have 55% in M.A. (English) - Duration is 4 years (if you possess M.Phil. (English) then duration is 3 Years) and the fees is on par with your PG only. Many universities are providing 4 times admission process in a year.

Sorry, BA in French is not offered in KJ Somaiya.

French is taught as a second language in Amity University Gwalior. Given the need to be shoulder to shoulder with the world competition and acknowledging the fact that speaking a foreign language is a must, Amity Gwalior has included French in its curriculum. The faculties that teach the language are super skilled along with a very patient approach. It's a great language after all. The students are quite happy about learning it.

Cut off for B.A. is quite higher compare to B.Sc. You should get above 90% to secure seat in FC. If you are in open category, these cut off gets down to 80% for reserved category. It also depends upon you want to take admission in grant or non-grant. So, study hard and all the best.

No, it is not necessary to speak English in the college. You can tell your case to your teacher and you will be permitted.
