Shiksha Top Questions

Both of these are premier institutions for arts and science courses. They are widely preferred by many students as they are top ranked ones.
But when we compare MCC and Ethiraj, MCC is better.
The college is affiliated to the University of Madras but functions as an autonomous institution (deemed university) from its campus in Tambaram, Chennai. MCC has several civil servants, administrators, educators, business people and political leaders, around the world among its professors and alumni. It is accredited by NAAC. It is Ranked 6 for Arts by The Week and Ranked 7 for science by India Today.
The student reviews are also really good which is one of the important criteria for the selection of a good college.

Hi,
Here is the preparation strategy for TISSNET to avoid some of the common mistakes in the exam:
Getting through HRM & LR programme at TISS Mumbai involves three stages:
TISSNET
Group Discussion and Essay
Personal Interview
TISSNET: It is an online aptitude exam and is divided in three sections (weightage is roughly equal for each section, though subject to change every year):
Quant: If you are already preparing for other management exams then you will find the Quantitative Aptitude questions to be fairly easy. However, if you are only aiming for TISSNET then I would suggest you to cover all Quant topics that are covered in management exams. You only need to practice low-medium level of difficulty questions.
Also, in 2016, the paper had some questions based on Data Interpretation, therefore, again I would suggest you to be well-versed with different types of questions in DI on the low-medium difficulty scale.
Verbal: Verbal section again is fairly easy. You need to have a decent command over the language to score full in this section. Be well-versed with basic Reading Comprehension passages.
General Knowledge: This is the make or break section in TISSNET. The GK is both current and static and covers areas ranging from economics to geography to politics. Therefore, your preparation on the subject should be thorough. I suggest you to do the following to prepare the section:
Read newspapers daily
Solve online GK questions covering all areas (The Aspirants Committee of HRM & LR, TISS Mumbai posts sample General Knowledge questions every alternate day on Facebook)
Be well versed with the new laws
Read up in detail about the government schemes
Additional Information:
Practice sample question papers (Extremely Important, also focus on speed)
The cutoff is high (based on the difficulty level), therefore, aim at scoring full marks in Quantitative and Verbal section.
Personal Interview:
Personal Interview is the game changer for getting into the course. Therefore, lay a strong focus on its preparation.
This part of the answer is just to you give you a sense of the characteristics the interviewers might be looking for in a prospective HR student and will not jot down the entire half an hour interview because the questions can vary from person to person and the assessment criteria for the interview is confidential. So, there are no fixed questions and no questions that the coaching centers have prepared you for.

Follow the suggestions below:
Go and visit the campus at least for one day.
Get the model papers from the seniors or from the library of EFLU.
Establish friendship with the peer group in campus
If you want to become English Professor or any language communication professional, EFLU is the best campus across the country.
You can have great exposure with different nationals and with different cultures.
Little bit of general knowledge is essential. You should have an idea about famous contemporary works in world literature (and, classics of course), names of renowned literary geniuses and their works (not necessarily the year of publication), nominees and recipients of literary prizes for e.g. IMPAC Dublin, Nobel, Orange, Booker, etc. This is a sure shot 10-20 mark, I guess.
When it comes to the language itself, as long as you are good at compositions, you are fine. There will be essays to write and paragraphs to summarize. Try and improve your vocabulary and sentence construction a bit. My advice would be to watch a lot of movies and TV shows and YouTube videos. Try it with subtitles if you prefer.

Ideal Institute of Management and Technology is a college affiliated by IP University.
The LLB course commenced in this college from 2006 and till date 4 batches have passed out. The students are practising in various courts in Delhi. The students are practicing with many top senior lawyers in Delhi or other parts of the country. Some of the students have gone into corporate sector or even academics as they are appointed as professors in Law Colleges.
Some of them have even cracked Judiciary level exams for other states.
Ideal Institute of Management and Technology and School of Law does not have a separate Placement Cell for providing opportunities for budding lawyers like us and ensuring jobs to the best performers but still some of them are able to bag good opportunities with some help from the college.

Both Loyola College and Women's Christian College (WCC) are good for humanities courses.
But when we compare these two, Loyola College is better. Loyola beats WCC in the following aspects:
Loyola College is the only college in the state capital Chennai with "A+" accreditation from NAAC. According to NIRF rankings 2017, Loyola is at the 2nd position among all the colleges in India. For which you may refer:
https://www.nirfindia.org/CollegeRanking.html
The India Today magazine in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009 ranked Loyola No. 1 in India for science degrees
The Department of Scientific and Industrial Research has recognised Loyola College as a Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, the highest research honor for an Arts and Science College.
Not only the rankings, but also the infrastructure and the alumni of the institution make it a better institution to study.
