Anyone can get admission in the school of open learning. There is no basic requirement you just have to pass the 12th standard and you can get the admission. The application form is simple too, you just have to choose you course and pay the fees that's it.
There are a large amount of course you can choose from in the school of open learning. I personally chose English honours as I was interested in the literature and mythological stories. The curriculum doesn't give you any exposure as there are classes only in Sundays so all the weekend you're on your own. I would suggest to improve the availability of the teachers and fix the teacher to students ratio
There is not a high spike of tution fees for the school of open learning the fees is minimal that only covers the fees of the teachers and management. The complete fees of my course is mere 24000 for 3 years with is nothing in compare to the private universities.
There are no festivals held in the school of open learning there are no events where students can enjoy and that's a downside. You can opt for hard copy or soft copy of the books, both of the opens are available other than that there is no other libraries.
The faculty to students ratio is too poor, there is only 1 teacher for 150-200 students who is only available on weekends. The teachers are just doing there job they enter the class when the bell rings, they open the book and start the lecture and when the bell rings again they just leave. The approachablity of a teacher is very hard as they are only available on weekends when the classes happens and after that you cannot contact the teachers for any queries.
course curriculum is well designed and covers most of the important topics. It helps in building good basics but I feel more practical exposure and industry related subjects should be added. Exams are held every semester with internals and if you study regularly they are not too difficult to clear.
I'm pursuing Political Science Hons at Miranda House College and it was my first preference. I had interest in this subject from school times and I had always scores well in this subject. Since PSIR is one of the popular and trending optionals for upsc I had opted for this course and it's contemporary nature makes it relevant in day to life too. The exams are held semester wise on 6 months. There is need of improvement in the examination pattern. Instead of giving questions from pyqs only they should ask for some practical and new contemporary questions.
My course has multidisciplinary approach and has alignment with the current trend and approach, providing research opportunities and skill development. There are enough elective courses and discipline specialization providing the core knowledge of each paper
