Question

So, you're curious about doing a BBA from IGNOU? Well, like everything, it's got its ups and downs. IGNOU's BBA actually specializes in Retailing, which is pretty cool because it opens up more doors in the retail world, not just sales and marketing.

One of the best things is that you get a certificate every year. This means you can start working right after your 12th and keep leveling up each year. No need to wait three years for a degree before you can get a job. Plus, you can study while you work.

Each year, you also get a project that lets you get some real-world experience in the retail industry. IGNOU-BBA is working with Retail Associations of India, so you know you're getting a good curriculum. The course is written in simple language that's easy to understand, and it's packed with the best info in retail.

And the cost? It's one of the lowest compared to other universities offering distance education for BBA.

Now, for the downsides. There's no Math or Statistics in the whole BBA course from IGNOU, so it's all theory. Some MBA programs might want to see a Math subject in your graduation, but don't worry, plenty of colleges will still accept your degree.

Also, some government jobs might need a Math subject in your bachelor's degree. But there are still lots of opportunities in both the government and private sectors. You can still take exams like Bank PO, SSC, and UPSC.

You won't get the same exposure as in a regular BBA. You won't learn how to give presentations in front of a crowd, which is important if you're studying BBA.

This course isn't available in every city, so check with your local IGNOU regional center before you sign up. It's only offered in a few cities because not many students take it. But if you're comparing distance universities for BBA, IGNOU is a solid choice because of its low cost, good reputation, and quality education.

Its a Question about your future!
