If You Didn't Score Well in CBSE, What are the Opportunities?

Friday 29 May 2015


OPTIONS GALORE
CBSE results may have brought cheer to some and disappointment to others but there are options for everyone. You can easily find a course and a college that suits you. Here are a few choices:

If you have scored between:

40-60%
Do not despair. Just watch this video.


There are more opportunities than you think. Like any other Delhi University college, its School of Open Learning also offers BCom (Honours), Political Science (Honours) and English (Honours) apart from BA Programme and BCom. You will get a DU degree after three years. Cut-off for Sanskrit (Honours) also dip to this range in regular colleges. Many private universities outside Delhi also offer professional course like event management, footwear design and culinary arts in collaboration with the industry. Job-oriented courses like fashion designing, hotel management, retail management and radio jockeying are other interesting options.


60-75%
Go through the cutoff list of last year and apply to courses that look accessible. Do not hink about the college at this stage. Cutoffs for BA programme and BA (Honours) Sanskrit in select few colleges drop to this level further during the admission process. You can opt for courses that have an entrance test like management studies, mass communication and foreign  languages in DU. Other courses to watch out for are journalism, Bio-medical Sciences and social work. Again, private colleges are also a good option, if you can afford them.

75-90%
Be realistic about the colleges you can get through. Give preference  to the course and take admission wherever meet the cutoff in first list. Though courses like BCom (Honours), Economics (Honours) and even English (Honours) stay above 90% in most colleges, watch out for subsequent lists. Opt for BA programme or BCom or general science courses whose cutoffs are lower down below 80%. You will also be eligible to sit for entrance tests for different courses in DU. Applying to private universities is also an option.

90-100%
Those who have scored above 95% have a good chance of getting into the college and course of their choice in DU. Experts suggest choosing a good course is more important that going for a well-known college.
