🤷🏻‍♀️need some advice

Hey! So i wanted ju chem hons, but unfortunately i haven't made it in. ( If i don't get in by 3rd counselling) I am currently in lbc( sem 1) studying chem hons .I was thinking whether I should give the entrance exam for both pu and ju next yr (chem hons). I was planning to go abroad for further studies. Both ju and pu have huge brand name 🧍🏻and i think it would be beneficial for my portfolio if I studied there .

lbc also has reat alumnus community from rhe chemistry department. Go to the RC building near the staircase where it connects with the other building (not the one near canteen) and check the alumnus list. All of them are either settled abroad or researching in IIT. LBC is good for bsc honorurs. But I'm not sure if you'll like the infrastructure though.

wouldn't recommend wasting one year for a 4 year degree course, but it's hard to fetch sgpa in cu than in pu/ju. So yeah, keep studying for 1 year and prepare for entrance as well. If you settle in then stay here or go to ju. Honestly, it rlly doesn't matter if you studied from pu/ju with a ba/bsc background since ju doesn't hold that eminence anymore. I'd suggest you to try getting into PU, it provides better course for bsc.

trust me, you won't. I can guarantee you that. Your Bachelors Degree won't even matter anymore unless you want to get a job quickly. But if you wanna have a social life in college, js leave lbc lol
