Yes, it is possible to score above 70% at North Bengal University. I have known people from the university who have scored above 70% and even 80% in their subjects. But it also depends on your subject. If it’s a science subject like Physics, Mathematics, or Computer Science that's achievable. But it’s a little tough for Arts subjects. 

Also, recently NBU started a semester pattern and study. In the semester system, the question pattern was updated and it makes scoring above 80% easy.

Calcutta University is far better than North Bengal University for studying law. 

  • CU has more national recognition as compared to North Bengal University.
  • The exposure you will get at CU is unparalleled.
  • CU is an older university compared to North Bengal University.

Although you can excel in your academics from any university, choosing a better one will provide you with more exposure. So, if you are interested in pursuing a degree in Law, I will suggest that you choose CU.

Calcutta University is the best option for doing an M.Sc in Physics and here is that preference order that you should follow.

  1. Calcutta University
  2. Burdwan University
  3. Visva-Bharati University
  4. North-Bengal University

Also, you should know that irrespective of which university you are taking, you will have to study on your own. You may get assistance from your professor or your friends. However, you will have to put in the extra effort to do well in your academics and get a job.
