Tamil Nadu Open University - [TNOU]: 7 answered questions

What should be done? Do we need UG degree completion certificate to pursue a master’s degree at Tamil Nadu Open University?

Susmriti Dey

We all believe that getting a degree from a university or education is just all. Obviously, one should have mandatory basic education till class 10th /12th. But after that, you should look forward to your personal interest and then pursue further studies. Continuing education for the sake of a degree is not a good option.

There is a huge difference between pupil and student life. When you are in school you are taught and in college, you have to learn as a student. This urge of students to grab just a degree has degraded their own careers. In India, lakhs of students graduate every year but only a few are suitable for their respective job roles. Even for a Grade “C” and “D”, lakhs of graduates apply. Not only have they, but many dropouts from schools also apply for such jobs. And this is how they all are degrading their career and country’s economy.

So, your first priority should be that you access yourself and understand what you want to do in life. Because we get one life and spending half of it in getting degrees and half in searching for a job is not a thing. Choose wisely because all your future depends on such decisions. Good luck!

Is it good to do a BBA from an open university run by a state government like KSOU and TNOU to get in a better college in the future for studying an MBA?

Krunal Saha,

27 Oct 21

Joining an MBA college does not usually depend on a student graduating with a regular course or correspondence course. But if you are not from a regular course, you tend to miss a lot of experiences which are only possible in a college atmosphere.

During your interview for admission in an MBA course, you will be asked why you opted for this rather than a regular college. You might have to put some more focus on extracurriculars as they will also come in handy during your selection.

Your selection will only be considered if there are not many students from regular courses applying for MBA. It is a very rare situation, and you should not depend on it.

It is suggested that you go for correspondence BBA or any graduate course. Join the full-time program and get familiar with the classroom environment. Symbiosis or Manipal is recommended for BBA as they are more reputed colleges than state Universities.

One should try to find out if the University has a good background for the degree you are seeking admission into. The university does not have to be a government university. For instance, an MBA from IGNOU and symbiosis always has a higher value than a distance MBA from any IIM but a full-time course at IIM could match nothing. So do your research and choose accordingly.
