Can you please tell me about JNU BA foreign language entrance exam?

Just get command over these topics - GK - Art, literature, drama, culture, dress, cuisines, geography, nobel laureates etc. Of those countries only the languages of which has been opted by you or fall in the cluster of languages for which you have applied. Reasoning - Coding-decoding (Alphabetical only), Blood Relations, Syllogism, Direction and ranking test English - Basic grammatical Rules, Vocabs, Reading Comprehension and passage. Read the editorials and additional articles of The Hindu. English Comprises a major chunk of marks in this exam so a nice command over grammar and writing skills will obviously sail you through this exam easily. A mere perfect command over English won't work unless your answer sheet is repleted with YOUR insightful ideas in the essay. As Essay and Paragraph carry 2030 marks, so you can't get marks just by showing off your ultrasophisticated style of English writing using goobledygooks and hard vocabs. JNU is a state of the art institution that praises new innovative ideas, alternative line of thinking, in depth and comprehensive understanding of issues and pragmatic progressive solutions, so just unleashing the onslaught of ultrasophisticated ivy league English in the answer sheet devoid of ideas will be simply counted as a SHALLOW SOPHISTRY and it will cull your chances of success for sure. Ideas are given preference over expression style, this is the legacy of JNU. Expression style is a shallow thing, your ideas and thinking show the depth of your subjectivity and your intellectual prowess as well. JNU respects ideas.
