How is Bangalore University? Is it easy to pass?

Sunayana Roy

25 Aug 22

Bangalore University offers good academics. Scoring the pass mark is easy. But you need to put in the effort to score higher marks.

Courses such as Microbiology, Life Science, Biotechnology, Genetics, etc. are comparably easier to score good marks. The evaluation process is a little difficult for courses such as Physics, Biochemistry, Political Science, etc. Just solving the previous years' questions will not help you score good marks in these subjects. You need to complete the syllabus as well.

What is your review of Bangalore University?

According to the reviews online, Bangalore University (BU) is an average university and is known to be deteriorating day by day.

Students are irritated by their evaluation system.
They tend to check the answer sheets carelessly.
The faculty never completes the syllabus.
The announcement of results is delayed quite often.

How is the BCA in Bangalore University?

Natasha Shome

30 Nov 21

BCA at Bangalore University is not a good option for your career. Here are some reasons to support this statement:

The BCA syllabus it follows is outdated.
You will be learning about things which will have no practical use in your career.
The faculty members are also not enthusiastic about teaching new topics.
Same projects are given to the students every year.
Securing a job after graduating with a BCA is tough.
Because the jobs you will be applying for will require your skills and knowledge about the subject.
If you are not updated with the changing trends of the industry, it will become tough to secure a job.

It is suggested that you go for an MCA after completing BCA to get better job opportunities. Also try for VTU rather than BU because they are said to provide better education.

Which is better, Bangalore University or Mysore University?

Nishant Khatri

06 Apr 23

If you are considering pursuing higher education and are wondering about the advantages of studying in a prestigious university, you should consider studying at the University of Mysore, rather than going for Bangalore University.

Here are some reasons why studying at the University of Mysore might be a great choice for you:

The University of Mysore is a renowned institution that attracts students from all over the country. It is everybody's dream to study there and make a successful career for themselves.
Mysore city itself has a charm of its own, with its lush green campus and beautiful surroundings that add a lot of energy to your academics.
The professors at the University of Mysore are fantastic and are dedicated to encouraging students to achieve their goals. They are also taskmasters who challenge students to perform at their best, which can make scoring a decent percentage quite difficult.
There are now many private and deemed universities in India, which provide students with more choices for higher education. However, in my time, there was no choice but to study at either Mysore or Bengaluru, and failing to secure a seat at either of these universities meant jeopardizing one's future.
Both the University of Mysore and Bengaluru University have produced exceptional talent that has contributed to the betterment of the nation. However, my personal preference would be Mysore because of the calmness and serenity that the city brings.

Studying at the University of Mysore can be a great opportunity to receive a high-quality education and benefit from the beauty and serenity of Mysore city.

Does Bangalore University repeat previous questions? How do you score well in Bangalore University?

Parag Panwar

30 Nov 21

This depends on how well you want to perform in your exams. If your aim is to just get passing marks, then it is fine to prepare from the last 5 years' question papers. But it also depends on luck as sometimes all the questions are new and none of them are repeated.

Therefore it is better to study everything and complete the syllabus and then practice from the last 5 years' question papers.

Try taking the guidance provided by your teachers and also your seniors. You can opt for coaching classes also to prepare better. Divide your strengths and weaknesses and work on them accordingly.

Lastly, practice from the previous years papers. This will familiarize you with the question pattern, the overall questions and give you an idea about the time limit.
