Shiksha Top Questions

Political science is a field which deals mostly with practical and empirical aspects (except few topics in political science like classical political theory).
Whereas philosophy is more abstract, normative and prescriptive in orientation.
Philosophy seeks to find answers behind why factor, like why particular phenomenon whether social, political or economic is happening and its roots and origins and endeavors to bring it closer to ideal situation.
Whereas Political Science is the field where one is supposed to engage into disinterested research refraining from any personal prejudices and preferences to explain ongoing political phenomenon.
In terms of wideness and expanse, Philosophy is much broader stream than political science. Philosophy has broad contours touching all fields of humanities right from history, sociology, and economics to culture.

The humanities and arts basically consists of subjects like commercial arts, Philosophy, psychology, economics, sociology, political science, statistics, literature and languages, etc. The junior college generally consists anew introduction to all these subjects wherein you can select your choice of major for the next three years of graduation. I will try to expand the career opportunities you can have by choosing any of the subjects.
1. Economics: Data analyst, several options in the banking sector where they have special posts for eco graduates. Basically a corporate 9-5 job would be tailor made for you.
2. Psychology: A therapist, counsellor, advisor etc.
3. Philosophy: Human resource management actually need people from philosophy background. Areas which includes ethics and logical thinking would be great as a career for a philosophy major student.
4. Political science: Get into hardcore politics. It's high time we have seen people who actually know the science and philosophy of politics, practice it.
5. Sociology: A career in government sector which includes family planning, development seems apt for a sociology major.
6. Language and literature: A knack and skill for writing along with passion for it, will take you places with this chosen field.

Hi,
AIBE is an open book examination conducted by the BCI and is not that difficult examination, as it is a MCQ based. Wherein having basic knowledge about law and basic concepts cleared shall be very helpful.
The exam being MCQ based, there is no need of learning things. Only having a thorough knowledge would help. The subject list is posted on the AIBE website and also subject wise distribution of marks is mentioned, which proves very helpful to study.
Sections, articles, case laws and illustrations mentioned below the sections should be read carefully as we often do not concentrate much on the illustrations part.
Constitutional Law and Criminal Laws should be read carefully along with all the landmark judgements. Also, some of the most used legal terms and definitions that are most commonly used shall also be remembered.
Also, practice solving previous year question papers, which will be of more use. This much preparation will be enough as the exam is not that difficult. And the last part that you should keep in mind is that the time limit. As it is an open book exam, a lot of time is lost while searching for answers in Bare Acts. So, it should be kept in mind that time should be properly managed.
Hope this information proves helpful to you.
Feel free to revert for any further details, information or questions regarding the same.
All the very best.

Hello,
Master of Education or M.Ed is a two year course that can be done after B.Ed. This gives a person specialisation in techniques of teaching. But unfortunately, it does not give any boost to career though it enhances CV. Of course it enables one to pursue doctorate in education. It is therefore very nice idea to pursue another career enhancing course along with M.Ed. Like for example Post Graduation in original subject. This will enhance career in the sense then one can hope to become teacher of higher classes and also think of becoming principal of a school one day. PG will also enable to become lecturer in a college with higher salary etc. One can also do a course enhancing skills or a course in management. It may not affect directly but indirectly it will surely help in enhancing the career progression.

Hello,
This is a very interesting question to answer. As per the guidelines of the University Grant Commission i.e. UGC, there are two different course of study. One is regular course and another is distance course. If you are planning to pursue both M.Com and LLB together in a regular course, then you are not permitted to do such. Because, UGC does not permit two regular courses simultaneously. At a point of time, UGC wanted to approve the scheme of two regular courses at the same time. For this purpose, they have consulted with many academicians, but the result was not positive as they did not receive any positive response so far from those academicians. But, if anyone wants to pursue both the courses at the same time, then he or she can opt one degree in a distance course and that is permitted by the UGC.
