Philosophy courses cover a wide range of subjects that delve into basic issues of reality, knowledge, ethics and other subjects. These courses offer a thorough investigation of human cognition and perception, ranging from the philosophical investigation of existence and causation to the epistemological investigation of the nature of knowledge acquisition. While logic examines the principles of sound reasoning and critical thinking, ethics debates focus on moral theories and concepts. You can pursue Philosophy courses as an Arts degree in India.Hope this helps

Your CUET score of 500 out of 800 is pretty good. Admission to Indraprastha College for Women for a B.A in Psychology & Philosophy depends on various factors like cut-off marks, number of applicants, and seat availability. Last year's cut-off can give you a hint, but it's not certain. You should also check if there's any relaxation for categories like OBC, SC, ST, etc. Keep an eye on the college's admission updates and apply on time. Best of luck!
