Hi Pushkar
Selection for MBA PGP is based on the performance in an entrance exam conducted by MIT-COM (Online) or CAT, XAT, MAT, MAH MBA CET followed by Group discussion and Personal Interview.
That is to say if you have not passed CAT MAT etc. exams you are still eligible for MBA. But you will have to give an entrance exam and an interview for the same.
There are many good universities like Lovely Professional University from where my friend took admission remote video Interviews for admission in MBA are taking place because of the grim situation of the country.So you can browse some good sites and find the entrance criteria which suits you. You can start with direct Skype interviews for MBA admissions which are being conducted these days.

Hi Priyanka,
First of all, it’s perfectly natural to be confused as to which course is the right one for you after Grade 12. You can begin by looking at the courses available online across different universities and SEE which ones interest you and identify the ones that you would definitely not want to opt for. In your question, I see that you have been able to identify Mass Communication as your area of interest, which is great. You can now have a look at the modules that are typically taught during an undergraduate Mass Communication course. For instance, at IILM University Gurugram, we offer B.A. (Hons) Journalism, Media and Communication course and the programme includes subjects that vary from Introduction to Journalism, Media and Communication, Reporting and Editing for Print, Media and Cultural Studies, Broadcast Media, Advertising and Public Relations, New Media, Media Ethics to Law and Global Media and Politics. (https://iilm.edu.in/course/ba-hons-journalism-media-and-communication).
In addition to this, Liberal Education at IILM University Gurugram allows you to combine subjects across different disciplines during your study. So studying B.A. (Hons) Journalism, Media and Communication with a course from Psychology/Management can be possible, thus allowing you to pursue your passion.

The important highlights of both the B-Schools are given below for making the assessment:

So from above both the B-schools are giving very tight competition, but my choice is KJ Somaiya.
