Understanding the Exam Structure and Admission Process at University of Mumbai

I chose this university because of the faculty which is very supportive. I'm a chess player and the faculties are very approachable when it comes to chess. My experience is good at University of Mumbai. If you are a sports player then this is the best university for you. Other than sports this university is good for academics as well. The teachers here are Ph.D holders in their respective subjects which make them unique.

I'm a first year B.Com student; the reason behind choosing B.Com is I'm pursuing CA. In the first semester of B.Com, there are 11 subjects. There are two exams in first semester first is internal exam and second is external exam. The internal exam consists of 20 marks in which the passing is 8 marks and external exam is of 30 marks and its passing marks are 12. If the student is failed in external then it is considered as failed in that particular subject. Same goes with internals. The admission is based on the merit of 12th and you don't have to give any entrance exam.

The faculties of University of Mumbai are very supportive and encouraging. Many faculties are Ph.D holders in their respective subjects. The teaching method is very simple and easy to understand. If you have any doubt you can clear it there only. Many teachers like to interact with students which are a very good way of teaching from my perspective. Some teachers like to give practical problems to solve from which we can learn.

The infrastructure of University of Mumbai is very decent and well-maintained. There are two buildings in our university, old and new. In the old building there are 2 floors on the ground floor there are office for enquiry and fees counter. On first floor there is a computer lab for students with few classrooms. On second floor there are classrooms and a departmental office. There is a gymkhana on ground floor as well. In new building there are classrooms for the students.

The campus of the university is small but it is well-maintained. There is an annual fest 'Goonj - The Voice of Youth' in which every department participates and the one who wins gets the trophy. The fest is good for building network in university where you meet new people from different departments. There are various activities as well such as formal day where everyone comes in formal attire.
