Should I get into an MBA at Sydenham or try for an MSc. in Finance at JBIMS?

RD
Rochella Dsouza Posted On : February 21st, 2023
MMS in Marketing, Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (Graduated 2015)

Anyone but you can decide what’s best for you. Only you can make an informed decision based on your expectations and ability to take risks. However, I will recommend you opt MSc in Finance if you are sure about your career in the Finance sector and are ready for Finance roles. In case you are not very sure, try contacting some seniors from the institute or doing some research on LinkedIn. If even after researching your gut is not very sure about Finance then opt for a core MBA only. 

By taking MBA, you can test your inclinations throughout the first year and find out if Finance is really your cup of tea rather than joining an MSc and regretting it later. A slight comparison between the 2 courses is given below

Brand: Brand-wise MBA/PGDM of Sydenham is a much older and bigger name in comparison to the MSc Finance of JBIMS.

Scope: The MSc in Finance at JBIMS has a much greater scope than MBA from Sydenham.

At JBIMS, both MMS and MSc Finance offer similar opportunities. Although many students exclusively target MSc. In finance, there tends to be an obvious preference for MMS. So in the near future either MSc Finance could be a separate course from MMS or even be discontinued. Not much can be said about this. So the only factor you should consider while deciding is your own inclinations.

Should I join IISC or JNCASR for integrated MSC-PHD in biology?

SA
Seenu Arora Posted On : November 5th, 2022
Int. Ph.D. in Genetics and Molecular Biology, Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research.

Both are excellent institutions, but the experience will differ between the two. Whereas IISc is much larger and has a more vibrant student community, the smaller batches in JNCASR allow for more attention and a better chance of getting into at least one of their preferred labs.

IISC is smack dab in the middle of a commercial area (well, actually, the commercial areas grew around IISc, but let's not get into that). JNCASR is less centrally located and more of a sleepy campus. It's a completely different story after the second year when the pressure is intense and lab work can be extremely demanding. 

There are no holidays for students (not even Sundays or national holidays like the 15th of August or the 26th of January, but there is a flag hoisting event so you get off work for at least an hour) and most P.I.s do not allow paid leave of more than two weeks per year. This is not to say that there isn't any fun on campus. Most of the rules governing on-campus life are lax, and the guards and staff are laid-back and don't make a fuss when asked to overlook a few things.

What is the pattern of questions for the written interview at JNCASR for the Integrated PhD (Biological Sciences) program?

SK
Snighdhanjan Kar Posted On : November 26th, 2021
studied at Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research

My sister applied for the integrated Ph.D. program in Biological Sciences at JNCASR, a few years back. They mostly asked her practical based questions in the interview. She was given problem sets, aptitude questions, and analytical questions. Most of the questions are aimed to judge your analytical skills. Rather than memorizing try to understand the concepts.

Is JNCASR good for an MSc in Chemistry?

SM
Sandipan Mukharjee Posted On : November 26th, 2021
B.Sc(Hons.) Chemistry, Presidency University, Kolkata (2020)

The general coursework for M.Sc Chemistry at JNCASR is not the best. But the research interface makes the course worthwhile. All the faculty members of the department are actively involved in research. They regularly publish in well-reputed journals. The research quality and the infrastructural facilities offered are great.

If you want a rigorous core curriculum, then you should first consider state universities followed by IITs. JNCASR is also a decent option for pursuing your M.Sc Chemistry degree. It offers specialization in either Material Chemistry or Chemical Biology. If research is your long-term goal, then choosing JNCASR Bangalore will be the best option.

What is the syllabus for the entrance for an M.Sc in zoology at HPU Shimla?

AB
Anubhav Bhardwaj Posted On : October 21st, 2021
Studied at HPU

I have a few friends from HPU Shimla and according to them, there is no specific syllabus for Zoology entrance. The question of the last few years can be helpful in analyzing the paper pattern. There is no specific syllabus mentioned but the courses generally comprise the topics from the UG degree. So it is definitely recommended to study the UG books and it would be really helpful if you could get previous papers.

There are some books that can be useful such as Arihant’s entrance test book for MSc.
