Value for Money: 3.7/5

Hopefully, the experience I shared will be useful.

Academics

I think Academics was the only drawback. There were many qualified Professors and Assistant Professors but all of them were not dedicated towards the job. They used to call off the classes without any prior notice. But when, it was about grading, they were quite strict.

Very good . Nice experience

Academics

Depends on the faculty Some teachers are excellent and give their heart and soul to the teaching But most of them are just fruits of Reservation Maybe they have tremendous knowledge but it means nothing if they can't delever it properly to the students

felt good reviewing about BHU

Academics

As an honours BA Psychology student, the environment for the education at BHU is rich. The faculty consists of the qualified experts.The curriculum is research-based, leading students to explore the psychological themes. And the addition of special courses and workshops enhances practical skills, preparing students for the actual challenges in life.

Why chs bhu call us for counselling? Is at the time of counselling the cutoff marks is increased

Hello Vaishnavi,

CHS BHU calls students for counseling if they have cleared cutoff according to their category, verify their documents and shortlist candidates based on rank and availability of seats.

Generally cutoff marks during cutoff does not increase but in some cases when additional counseling is conducted then the cutoff may increase due to lower seat availability and candidates with high scores are considered.

Hence calling for counseling does not always mean guarantee admission as it depends on other factors like rank, available seats and choices made by higher ranked candidates.
