Bharati Vidyapeeth University, Pune is a good university to study and it has good placement record. Placements also depend upon the location of your college as they treat each of their colleges separately in terms of placement cell. However, it is deemed university, but it is one of the top universities of India. In respect of law and management universities, Bharati Vidyapeeth, already, has its head up. For engineering, the placement records are good. During the recession period all around the world, their placement records got affected but that time it was happening all across the globe. In that period also this university has made its mark by providing some good placements in small companies. But from another aspect, I would rate it 5/10 because there are a lot better options if you want to pursue BBA in Pune.The crowd in BVP is anytime good but I believe you will get better faculty members and opportunities in the colleges listed below.
As per me, go for SCMS-PUNE, MIT-SOM College, Pune, Christ University or Mumbai University.

In my opinion, go for Amity only if you don't have any other option. If you are in Mumbai then you can go for the University of Mumbai or Christ/Symbiosis College. Don't ever go to AmityUniversity, Mumbai campus. Still, if you really want to join Amity then you may consider RICS School of Build environment but only for Noida campus. None other. The reason being that Noida is the only campus of Amity University which is old and hence they have some sort of reputation among companies. The second reason is as you know that BBA is not enough when it comes to build environment field, so, of course, you must have to do MBA/PGDM also in that specialization which is really costly. So, investing huge amount on BBA (as you know the fee structure of RICS, Amity) is not a wise choice. So, my suggestion is that, you can go for any govt college to pursue BBA and then you may target any high profile work (even foreign college) also. So, choose accordingly.

Average students can manage to complete ACCA by following the correct approach.
The primary reason I: Say this is based on the method of studying for this exam. Your effort will be in applying what you learn to the questions. Whereas, many students judge themselves as being average or above average in terms of how well they can remember the concepts in the textbook and pour it into the answer paper during their school and college exams.
Eligibility: For ACCA, you must have 10+2 certificates with at least 5 subjects and the main subjects which include English and Mathematics/Accounts, 65% in at least 2 subjects and over 50% in the others. Once you have these documents, you need to apply for ACCA registration. Even after class 12th with a Bachelor's degree in commerce/finance from a recognized university or an equivalent degree with a minimum of 50% in graduation you can apply for ACCA.
The minimum age limit is 21 years.
There is some exemption possible in ACCA. So, those students who have already studied some paper and have relevant qualifications can apply for exemptions. A student can get the exemption from nine papers of the fundamental level (it includes ACCA Knowledge level and ACCA skill level) considering earlier qualification. You cannot exempt from ACCA Professional level papers.
Once you know the ACCA eligibility and exemptions you can go for the ACCA registration.

I think the answer should be yes.
Before you think that I am some brat complaining about the reservation system, let me tell you I also belong to a reserved category.
But when I see students with percentile as low as 50 getting into IIMs it hurts me too. I think, it is okay to lower the eligibility bar to some extent, but not so much that it will degrade the quality of the college.
For top IIMs, maybe a percentile between 90-95 would be justified for reserved categories, but below that would be a bit compromising seeing that many students work really hard to get into top IIMs.
So, if seats are remaining and no more reserved candidates are above 90 percentile, the seats should pass to general students.
So, according to lowering the bar for reserved students to some extent is okay but not so much that it keeps deserving students away from their dream institute.
