    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.

    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.

Absolutely! Having a humanities background is no barrier to pursuing Fine Arts at Chandigarh University.

The programme welcomes students from all streams, including humanities, as long as they meet the minimum requirement of 50% marks in their 12th exams. Many humanities students find the programme a natural extension of their academic interests, as the curriculum often connects with cultural, historical, and social themes. For example, a student who studied history might bring unique perspectives into courses like painting or applied arts.

The university values creativity and passion over specific subjects studied in school.
