I live in Mumbai and there is a College called 'Ruia' which is famous for it's mass media and theatre 🎭, I desperately want to gets admission there but my marks are too bad so the teachers in Ruia recommended me to do Mass media in Marathi as the cut off is low.
Same teachers, same faculty, same syllabus but different Language. The entire Faculty of Ruia is Marathi and they are pretty chill and cool. The faculty is great, I just love them. I am Maharashtrian so studying in Marathi may not be an issue for me
But I am more concerned about my job opportunities, I talked to seniors and they were chill and in fact they were internships in the Marathi industry, I don't want to limit my job opportunities just to Marathi. I am concerned that non-marathi companies or firms won't hire btw my Hindi and English are good, will it affect my job credentials??!
Pls help!!!
If I don't get Ruia there are other colleges providing Mass media in English but they aren't as well known as Ruia in the Industry.
So I have an option to do Mass media from a mediocre college or do Mass media from one of the best College but in Marathi.
Any Mass media students or pass outs please tell me and guide

Hello, myquals PG final year student. I have written a thesis and I'm scared that some or most part of it might be flagged as AI content by turnitin. Before my supervisor checks it, I want to see it myself and correct is but I don't have access to turnitin and also I'm broke so I can't purchase those expensive alternatives of Turnitin. If anyone of you has access to turnitin and help me get a full and free AI and plag report for my thesis, it'll be a very big help to me 🥺. I know it's tough to get a free report but please help please I'm in real problem.
I’m 18(F) PCB student, took a drop for NEET but now I genuinely don’t wanna continue in the neet/medical route anymore
The 2 options I’m seriously considering are:
B.Pharm or Psychology
I'm interested in both but confused af.
My mom works in pharma, so I know the industry has issues like slower growth unless you specialize/do MBA later. But at the same time, I’ve also seen people earn well in it.
As for psychology, I genuinely like the subject and understanding people/behavior, but I also feel like it’s become very trendy online and people don’t talk enough about the downsides and salary reality in India.
My main priorities are honestly:
good money, career growth, stability and not regretting my degree later ( like I'm regretting wid neet )
My qualifications are - 12th passed pcb 72%
And 10th wid 91%
People already studying or working in these fields ...what’s the actual reality? Which one has better long-term scope in India?
I'm passionate about science, I don't care much for medicine, but I can appreciate being a MSL (medical science liaison), that, life sciences consulting, bioinformatics, genetic sciences and a backup in biotech + IP law. I want to do PCB because it's slightly easier for me, and I want to do NIOS math, so that I know math and perhaps clear some easier exams. I don't plan to do more than just pass NIOS math.
However, I've noticed, and seen of late people calling and considering PCB risky, and that it kills career chances if one fails to clear NEET and enter an MBBS/BDS (because AYSUH and veterinary sciences are similarly risky, though, MBBS / BDS without a specialization is rather risky as well.)
what I'm wondering is if I should choose to pursue PCB + NIOS math or PCM + biology NIOS for better qualifications?
thank you
myquals: 1st year college student, currently working as a software engineer
In my 1st year of college, I earned my first ₹400.
Not from coding.
Not from an internship.
Not from freelancing on some fancy platform.
I literally walked into a local shop and told the owner:
“I can make videos for your shop and help with social media marketing.”
That was it. No portfolio. No agency. No followers. Just confidence and willingness to try.
He agreed and paid me ₹400 for making a video.
I still remember how happy I was holding that money. It felt unreal because for the first time, I realized:
Skills can create money.
That small ₹400 changed my mindset completely.
After that, I stopped waiting for “perfect opportunities” and started experimenting with everything I could:
video editing
social media marketing
coding
content creation
automation
startups
Now I work as a software engineer, but honestly, trying different things early taught me more than college ever did.
Most people in 1st year are waiting to become “ready.”
The truth is nobody is ready.
You just try.
You fail.
You improve.
And sometimes a random ₹400 opportunity changes how you see your entire future.

I am 17 years old. And I gave my 10th board exam when I was 15 almost 2 years ago in 2025. I took a gap year after that because I was severely ill, mentally. During the covid-19 quarantine, i skipped most of 5th grade and all of 6th and 7th grade. I appeared in 8th but I barely ever went because of mental issues (anxiety and some personality disorders)
In 9th i barely really studied again, same issues. In 10th I felt a little bit more pressure and so I decided I'll be a little bit more serious about this but i genuinely wasn't able to study at all until the exams actually started. I scored 49/100 in science and 35/100 in math. I only got 72 because of the best five subjects rule in cbse. I have never studied fractions. Algebra. Geometry. You could ask me the easiest questions. Like. 273 ÷ 21 and i wouldn't be able to answer it.. it's not really a problem with intelligence? I can remember things very well and i scored pretty damn well in other subjects like English, sst, IT like all of em were over 80.
The problem is I never really got to study science or math ever. And because of that, i don't understand it at all! And since I can't understand it much, i don't like it since I can't really solve anything. But i absolutely love the subjects in arts/humanities. History? My favourite subject ever! Geography? I have most of the countries memorized! Politics? Love it too! Psychology? Probably even better than history. I love psychology.
Now don't get me wrong, i love science. I think it's badass, amazing, fun, and interesting. And in 10th when I was able to solve some of the science/math stuff i thought it was extremely fun. But again, I am more interested in writing paragraphs upon paragraphs on things. But again, i love science and like the JOBS and career options in science. Like. Psychology, psychiatry, surgery, forensic science, pharmaceutical sciences, and stability. Because if you just studied properly and consistently for a few years and worked hard you're set! Yet with arts you can't really do much with it. Sure, you can do law, psychology, probably upsc. Etc.
I am so confused. What should I even take? And idc about like the scope in India since I am gonna be hopefully getting out of this fuckass country! And I'll contain my urge to write a paragraph on why I hate it. Anyways.
For the past 2 years I was like "I'll take science." And now when it's time to actually get into 11th grade I'm terrified. And the fact that if I didn't take the gap year I would've made this decision last year at the age of sixteen! Now imagine how it would've been in a country that's not india or china. You DON'T have to make a big decision until you're like 17! And even then you're not locked into certain subjects..god. help me!! I know if I studied the basics that I missed from 5th grade to 10th alongside studying the 11th subject.(Pcb+psychology) I could most probably get back on track by the end of 11th but again.. do I really want to do this?. actually why am I even stressing.. i can just switch after 12th if I don't like it. No. Yes?
I'm general 18F and going into a non tech degree. I wish to do an MBA from good institutes in the future. Will my percentage affect in the future if I want to do an MBA from top institutes?
my_qualifications: 12th passed
20F, took two drops for neet. this year i got 547, exam got cancelled, now ill sit for neet again but dont have much hopes from it. i am saturated and burnt out. have been researching career options besdies mbbs for the first time from this april, and everything feels like a dead end. but whatever. the point is that i would rather have an uncertain future than sit for neet 2027 again. yes, i know the chances of it biting me in the ass is very high. vinash kaale vipreet buddhi, as my mother says to me.
my parents want me to enroll in a local open clg for bsc and study for neet once more. in my prep years, i was always kinda ahead of the kids in my batch and got put in topper batches too. ive had tution teachers and theyve always said i could do better tha i deserve a govt seat. last year I started studying for neet in nov 2025 due to health complications, so my parents feel like i can still do better and all.
my passion and interest is completely dead. i cannot for the life of me care for neet, mbbs, bio, whatever tf, i just need some way to make money. if i am being very honest , i cannot give a f about anything besides making money. i did a lot of research and thought i would do bsc in some bio subject this year from a good ug clg and try for mba. now the problem is cat. all my school life i had been terrified of maths and bad at it. frankly the only reason i took pcb was because i hated maths, that was the primary reason. if i prepare for cat im essentially going to fight what i desperately wanted to escape from. i dont doubt my leadership skills, im good at communication, but yeah.
my family has been through mba though, and they think i am not cut out for it at all. my only strength is my memorization, and with that too i couldn't do well in neet, so how will i go through something lika mba, which tests things i am not naturally good at?
then i see people after even their damn msc in bio subjects thinking of giving neet again and be clueless beyond belief on what to do and it just leaves me baffled because is this it? what am i even doing here then, brainstorming options?
im honestly confused beyond belief and have no idea what to do. i am fighting my parents every day because they want me to take a partial drop and do neet and mbbs and im saying i want to do bsc then mba or if not that then bdc then msc bioinformatics. holy hell dude mujhe bas paisa kamana hai gand maraye aur sab kuch💀💀🙏🙏🙏idfk anymore im sorry if i sound frustrated its because i am hehe. more so at myself because why tf am i so slow and dumb and why dont i know maths and computers and have no special qualities at all omg🤙🤩

Nobody prepares you for how lost you feel after 12th.
Drops that didn't work. Deadlines missed for no reason. Every exam given, nothing to show. Didn't even know how college applications worked.
Different situations. Same feeling — everyone has a plan except you.
And somehow at 18 it already feels like you've failed at life.
You haven't. But god it feels like it.
How many of you are feeling this right now?myquals
Long post, sorry in advance.
Some background: I graduated in 2025 with a bachelor's in Economics and Math from a decent college in India (GPA 9.6/10). I've always wanted to work as an economist — think international organisations (World Bank, IMF, UN agencies) or economic consultancy. Long term, I think a PhD is probably necessary for that kind of career.
After graduating, I took a gap year to prepare for masters entrance exams (CUET PG etc.) with the hope of getting into a top program in India, since studying abroad has always been financially out of reach for me despite applying for scholarships. To give some context on where I stand internationally — I did get into a couple of well-regarded UK universities for a masters last year, but couldn't make it work financially. Now I'm at the end of this gap year and here's where things stand:
- The colleges I'm getting through CUET this year are nowhere near the top 10 in India. I'm genuinely worried that going to a mediocre program might hurt more than help my career prospects.
- I have an offer for a **predoc position in Economics at an IIT**, which I'm seriously considering.
I see three possible paths forward and I genuinely don't know which makes the most sense:
**Path A: Predoc → MRes/PhD abroad (skip the masters entirely)**
Do the predoc this year to build research experience, then apply directly to funded MRes or PhD programs in the UK/Europe. These are funded so the financial barrier disappears. But I'm worried — would top programs even consider someone with just a bachelor's and a predoc and no masters?
**Path B: Masters in India → PhD abroad**
Start the masters this year at whatever college I can get into through CUET, and apply for a funded PhD abroad after. It's the fastest route but I'm not sure a mediocre Indian masters actually helps — and might it actively hurt?
**Path C: Predoc → Masters in India → PhD abroad**
Do the predoc this year, use that to get into a better masters program in India, then apply for a funded PhD abroad. Feels like the safest option but also the longest — I'd be looking at 3+ more years before a PhD.
Myquals:
- BSc Economics + Math, 9.6/10 GPA
- Got into reputed UK master's programs last year — couldn't attend due to financial constraints despite exploring every scholarship option
- Research internship at a think tank (includes causal inference work)
- Policy internship at a government body
- Strong technical skills — Python, R, and experience with causal inference methods
- Predoc offer at an IIT (yet to accept)
My questions:
Is a predoc at an IIT genuinely useful for PhD/MRes applications abroad, or is it just another year of delay?
Would strong PhD programs (or MRes programs in the UK/Europe) consider someone with just a bachelor's + predoc and no masters?
Is a mediocre masters in India worth doing at all, or does it actively hurt you?
For those who work at international organisations or consultancies — how important is where you did your masters, really?
I feel like I've been going in circles for a year and I really need some outside perspective. Any advice, especially from people who've navigated Indian academia → international economics careers, would mean a lot.
Thanks.
myquals: CGPA 9.55 upto 3rd sem btech ECE. If joining coaching institutes would be better, which one should I join pertaining to EC? (preferences: mostly online live classes/ recorded video lectures)
As far as I have researched these are my observations:
2.MadeEasy: Heard around in some other subreddits that it is a lot costlier, but good for EC syllabus.
Seniors, your suggestions? (Personally, I think joining a live online class in ace would be better as it is slightly less expensive than madeeasy, i did consider self-study but to get into PSUs I doubt if it will be enough, I would then inevitably end up in an institute for 2028 session for second try. That's why if I take initiative this session itself, I feel I could have a better chance next year too if this attempt fails (which I am confident may not be the case, but have to prepare for the worst :))
myquals:10th - 86%
I just finished my Class 12 board exams and ended up with a 63.2%. My goal is to get into a top IIM (A/B/C) or Tier-1 MBA institute, but I know how heavily they weigh past academics (10th and 12th marks).
Because of my low score, I was seriously considering taking the NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling) exam to improve my percentage. However, I’ve heard conflicting things online like how nios will be looked down by employers during placements ,
I want to know that:
NOTE: my plane is to take a course like bvoc and study class 12 portions alongside the bvoc
Hi, I'm planning to join amity noida for B.des can i connect to anyone from Amity doing B.des or a fresher joining amity noida this year?
[Qualifications- 12th pass this year ]
i've been thinking to pursue bachelors in agriculture and enter the food industries after masters or pursue mba. Is it a good option? im certainly not sure if im correct with my decisions or not bcuz i believe I AM TOO YOUNG to take decisions rn. Also , i love being around nature and plants so I thought this might be a good course for me.
I genuinely want to know ppl's opinion who got even a slightest knowledge of this field or pursuing the same.

My qualifications, 12th cbse boards 65.2%🥀
92.2%ile(1.2lakh crl).
So guys believe me when I say I have no life, I have no interests I know, I just like studying intuitive/smart things like maths and physics. I know basic programming and used to do lots of cp/Olympiad question cause I liked it, and other than that I have watched movie shows and animes a lot of them so I guess that could be an interest, but doesn't pays the bills so I am not counting that and I haven't even once been to a proper theatre/cinema just your average pirate
Now I have to choose a career for myself and the thing is I can't decide what I want to do, like in eingeneering I like studying it but being an eingeneer for a company a 9-5 job for ≈10lpa job, it really doesn't attracts me ye bit.
The other thing is going into research but then the problem is that I am broke, and also doubt myself if I would be able to handle things later cause I know, it really, really, gets crazy hard and gives about no rewards, cause there are people a lot smarter than me so yeah it also seems pretty dead to me, I mean just studying till it suits you is what I have been doing and it's not really a career either.
And yeah doing a dead bachlors just so I can prepare for cat and do mba, it doesn't excites me either.
And one major problem I have no inner will on what I want to do, and I don't know my passion/interests.
Almost 17m btw.
Hi,
My qualifications are till now that I have passed 10th with 80% and 12th with 72% i am 18 turning 19 this year, I took admission in University of Allahabad for bcom course i failed in my first year and got year back, now my 1st year 2nd semester exams are going on in the same college but my marksheet will tell that I have failed and as you can tell my academics are not very great.
I am thinking of starting to learn data analytics and prepare for banking exams from next year (will be eligible in 2028) I will keep data analytics as a backup and maybe earn something in the side for personal expenses and not be dependent on family.
I am not dumb i lack motivation, I am not smart either I have average intelligence.
My question is data analytics a stable career in the future, or should I learn some other skills like accounting or marketing? I don't have internet in any of them tbh, give me a practical answer. Due to my academics i will not get a great mba college and tbh i don't want to do post graduation and also i won't be able to afford the fees of mba.
my qualifications - B.Ed K12 Admission Counselor
i know that sounds harsh. stay with me every year something happens. neet paper leak. osm checking disaster. unfair cutoffs. changing rules mid admission season and every year there is outrage. videos. petitions. reddit posts. and then silence. and then the next batch goes through the same system with the same trust and the same eventual disappointment i am not saying students deserve what happens to them. they absolutely do not i am saying the system has shown you exactly who it is. repeatedly. consistently. without apology the students who navigate this best are the ones who stopped waiting for the system to be fair and started building backup plans that do not depend on the system being fair know your revaluation rights. know your verification window. know which colleges do not depend entirely on board percentage. know what your options look like if the number on your marksheet does not reflect what you actually know the system will not protect you but you can protect yourself within it what would you do differently if you could go back knowing what you know now
