Shiksha Top Questions

ACLAT is conducted by Alliance University for admissions to its 5-year integrated law courses. The pattern of exam is quite similar to CLAT expect for the fact that legal aptitude constitutes 45 marks and logical reasoning constitutes 45 marks.
There are no specific books in the market for ACLAT. However, if I come to the preparation part, you should start your preparation with going through past year papers which would provide you with a better idea as to what is relevant and what is not.
Then look for the books which cover those topics comprehensively.You can use RS Aggarwal for Maths and logical reasoning. For English, you can use books of Arihant publications or any other. For General Knowledge, you can refer to Arihant and Lucent to cover portions of static GK, Geography, and polity. There is no specific topic which should be focused more except for the fact that more time should be given to the subject that you are weak in.

Hi,
First of all, I think the fact that IMS Law College is comparatively new and a private college gives an edge to Faculty of law, Allahabad University which is a centralised government university. Now, let us discuss pros and cons of both colleges. Pros of Faculty of law, Allahabad University are the faculty and alumni basis which includes many chief justice of India and prominent lawyers. Another pro is the fact that you can intern with some phenomenally well lawyer in Allahabad high court and if you are going for litigation, it can be a good choice. However, the placements of Allahabad University are not really encouraging since it has started 5 year integrated course recently. Moreover, the red tapism is too much in centralised university and autonomy to student body is restricted. Now, coming to IMS Noida, which is among few private university focusing on moots, debates and other co-curricular activities which is a major pro of it. Another pro is the fact that it is in NCR and many good firms are established in NOIDA unlike the case of Allahabad University. The alumni is almost negligible and the high court internship can be tiresome owing to distance issues. Overall, it is upon your preferences whether you want a government university or a university promoting activities other than academic excellence.
Good luck.

Hi,
Since BTC is a two year regular course, you may look for distance courses in any of the subjects you wish to specialize in like B.A/M.A mathematics, psychology, education etc. You may also pursue online courses related to education, education management, education technology etc from portals like coursera.org, EdX. Another option is ignou that offers certificate courses related to psychology, child development, counselling, blended learning, curriculum designing, policy making, subject specific certificate courses are also available. Check few online courses at EdX here:

Hope this gives you the fair idea of what all you can do with BTC. The only caution you need to take is balancing the two courses simultaneously as it might require lot of rigour.

Hi there,
Well, the university doesn't have much reputation in terms of placements as such. Also, the 5 year integrated course has been recently introduced in last 3-4 years and still the first batch has to pass out.
The claims as to placements in campus are not really true as none of the recruiters are available as of now for the Law course and not a single student has been placed yet to the best of my knowledge .
Also, you have opportunities which any graduate would have after completing his or her graduation.
Also, a traditional university doesn't have much to offer as such.
You may rather prefer a specialized institute in law for better placements and career prospects.
You will have to be on your own in terms of placements after completing graduation and then you may option for anything you like including litigation, judiciary or UPSC.
Also, you may option for legal jobs at banks or firms which depends on your C.V.
The better it would be the better offers you could get.

Hi there,
Department of Law at the Osmania University is considered to be one of the oldest law colleges in the south. This college/university is known for its quality education and well qualified and experienced faculty. The faculty itself is sufficient and dependable.
The students in this college are highly competitive in nature. And, so get placed easily in the area of their interest.
The College has a well-established Placement Cell and appointed a placement officer who shall take care of all the placements. Till now many students have been placed in various firms such as law firms, LPOs, BPOs and Senior High Court Advocates Offices. Top most law firms like Thomson Reuters, Infosys are the top recruiters in here.
Students have also went on to apply individually and got their desired workplace.
I hope this information proves useful to you.
Feel free to revert back for any further details, questions or information regarding the same.
Wish you all the very best.

Psychiatrists are doctors who graduate from medical school, they have a year of medical internship, and have 3 years of residency in the assessment and treatment of mental health disorders.
Psychologists have a doctoral degree in an area of psychology, the study of the mind and human behavior. They are not medical doctors. A psychologist can have a PhD in philosophy or a PsyD in clinical or counseling psychology. They do 1-2 years of internship. Unlike psychiatrists, psychologists are also trained in giving psychological tests such as IQ tests or personality tests. Psychiatrists can prescribe medication but psychologist can't.
Both the fields may look alike but are very different from each other and you should pursue a course according to your area of interest.

Hello,
To answer your question, both the courses aims to prepare teachers for the elementary stage of education, I.e. classes I to VIII. The aim of elementary education is to fulfill the basic learning needs of all children in an inclusive school environment bridging social and gender gaps with the active participation of the community.
Technically, there is no difference except the course name.
Both courses are designed for Elementary Teacher Training I.e. Upper Primary (Class VI to VIII).
Students may join D.Ed or D.El.Ed course after class 12th (Senior Secondary).
Important Points to remember: Both course should be 2 year Duration, the college/institute should approved by NCTE.
If you qualified D.Ed or D.El.Ed after 10th+2 you can apply in TET Exam (Paper I) I.e. for Primary Stage teachers.
If you have 10+2+3 and D.Ed or D.El.Ed degree, you can apply TET Exam (Paper I and Paper II both).
I hope this helps.
