Dear Alivia,

B.A. (Bachelor of Arts. ) -

Course duration is 3 years and the best thing about this course is that so many B.A. specialization courses are available to choose from.

A general set of common B.A. subjects are present, in addition to which specialization subjects are also present. Some specialization areas are- B.A. Psychology, B.A. History, B.A. Archaeology, B.A. Economics, B.A. Journalism and Mass Communication, B.A. English, etc.

Another plus point is that many Government jobs require applicants to be Graduates. So, if it is a Government job that you are targeting, you may pursue this course. It is easy to pursue the course and one may concentrate one’s efforts towards preparing for Government Job entrance exams.

Eligibility criteria in case of B.A., 12th Arts (or any other stream) is that students who have successfully cleared 12th standard examination from a recognized School are eligible.

After B.A., you may also go for M.A. and doing so will enhance your skill set and market value.
