Thank you Ruchika !! That was helpful. I am currently pursuing my last year of  an integrated masters degree.There is no bachelors degree awarded separately here. At the end of the 5 years, you get a Masters degree. So, does it mean that I need to have 55%  by the time I'm done with the course ?

Yes. Since it's an integrated programme, therefore you need to score at least 55 percent marks, which will be considered as the last attended programme to be eligible for PG programme in EFLU. But interestingly, while you be getting a Masters degree, what motivates you to go for another Masters degree from EFLU. Please answer as I will be able to help you further on this.

I am considering switching my stream from chemistry to English as I finally realized that the latter is what I am better at. I wanted to leave earlier but that was not possible because there is no bachelors degree awarded here. Do you have any suggestions or advice ?

I am glad to know that you have realized what you want to do, as only a few person are there who actually have this realization. Since you have made up your mind to change your course, EFLU would be the good choice. All the best! Keep asking questions as it helps you in clarifying your doubts. Thank you.
