Inside Hindu College : Beyond NIRF 1

The main reason why I opted the BSc program course over B.sc honours is that it gave me the flexibility to choose either of the physics chemistry or maths as my Master's core subject. The curriculum offers real world problems as numericals and some core concepts too which aid me in the real world applications. I think this course is at a perfect balance between all 3 core science subjects and doesn't require much improvements As it is a Prog course, so the exams aren't that difficult as compared to hons and the exams are taken by university after 6 months that gives us enough time to complete the syllabus and prepare for the exam.
