Then why don't you go for jamia i think that will provide you more opportunities. What you have to do is start preparing for entrance of jamia because you will get admission only by entrance. Entrance book you will get in jamia milia university.

So prepare well.

Good luck!

You should have 50% in graduation. With a psychology degree, you're well placed to pursue a career in both arts and scientific fields, depending on your personal interests. Further study is an option, and is required if youd like to become a fully-fledged chartered psychologist. For this youll need at least a masters degree, as well as further training specific to your specialization.But, for a large number of psychology careers, further study isnt a prerequisite. Those who dont go on to study psychology at postgraduate level have many options within public and private healthcare, education, mental health support, social work, therapy and counseling. These roles may be advisory, research-led, treatment-led or therapeutic.There are also a number of less typical roles for psychology graduates, including jobs in media and other creative industries. Overviews of these typical and not-so-typical careers with a psychology degree are outlined below.Psychology careers in healthcare and therapyChartered psychologistPsychotherapistSocial workerCounselorA psychology degree may also provide a good basis for careers in IT, finance, the legal sector, government administration and market research.The best colleges for psychology are:The National Institute of Mental Health and NeurosciencesLok Nayak Jayaprakash Narayan National Institute of Criminology & Forensic ScienceLovely Professional University Jalandhar ,Gujarat Forensic Sciences University ,IFS Mumbai, Aurangabad, Nagpur
