    Hi,
    Following are the best books for its preparation:
    R. Gupta's Popular Master Guide for Journalism & Mass Communication Entrance Examination by Ramesh Publications.
    Arihant Mass Communication Journalism Entrance Examination of All Indian Universities.
    Arihant Success Master For Mass Communication Journalism Entrance Examination of All Indian Universities.
    Yes, it is the best time to prepare for the entrance exam if you want to get admission in the top colleges of India. Apart from these books, I would recommend you to read Pratiyogita Darpan, which is a monthly magazine about GK (India and abroad) along with the everyday newspaper.

    Hello Siddharth
    Profession of mass communication and journalism requires a big bucket of knowledge. So before buying books your first focus should be collecting as much as knowledge you can, that is possible if you daily read newspapers ad read simple NCERT books. Apart from this here I am suggesting some important books so that you can prepare yourself for journalism and mass communication entrance exams. First of all refer two publications - Arihant and Keval J. Kumar. These both are considered good for preparation. You will get a lot of content in their books. Mass communication in India by Keval J. Kumar

    Hi,
    Two of the best books for the preparation are- Success Master-Arihant and Journalism and mass communication entrance exam-RBH publications. And also, it's better if you stay updated with the general knowledge, but at the same time, you'll have enough time after your boards too for solely preparing for the exams.

Yes, it should not be hard for you to get admission to the University of Western Australia as an Indian student with 50% in class 12th. However, please note that it does not put you in the top applicants either. The general admission percentage requirement for international students is 50 to 65%.

Look at the other admission requirements - 

  • English proficiency tests with IELTS (bands 6.5) or TOEFL iBT (82+)
  • High school Diploma from a recognised board like CBSE or ICSE etc.

Top universities require a minimum of 80-90% in your 12th-grade board exams.

  • For highly competitive courses like Medicine, cut off is usually higher.

Countries like Germany and Norway are excellent options. Because public universities there charge little to no tuition fees.  The cost of living and education is significantly lower compared to the USA or UK. You must factor in living expenses and language requirements.
