masters in India or abroad

Question

So i'm planning on doing my masters and i want to know whether its better to do it in India or try some place else?

Answer 1

I personally would prefer not doing it in India because i'm very against the Indian education system.

anyone agreeing with me please help me decide where to do it from if not India.

Answer 2

for masters in India we do have a very strict filteration process and its tough here as you know about the MBA and Mtech. In India we do have limited seats and again those have reservations, so for the normal people to get in there is a big task and this task has very descent outcomes you get to be related with the heritage institutes here which promise a career boost. In abroad what happens is they dont have that strict filteration process and the exams are relatively easy out there we do have open education scenario that is of more benefit and once you come back to India you get to see that on your career. So both are great at their own way and yes I prefer India for masters as the level of knowledge and interaction you get builds your career and your personality in a better way.

Answer 3

Knowledge is the same everywhere, doing it in india or abroad is the same. Its just that doing it in india would be cheaper.

Answer 4

If you want money then go for masters in abroad else do it from India itself.

Answer 5

India has very few institutes that provide quality education for masters program.. There are more people wanting to do masters than there are vacancies.. It is difficult for people to get admission in these institutes and there is no use of doing masters in institutes that dont provide quality education.. There are many opportunities for masters abroad... So i would prefer masters in abroad

Answer 9

In India when you go for the Masters the source of income that you have is The stipend and the money from your parents. You dont need to worry about the money you can completely focus on your studies while in abroad you need to get a temp job to survive the expenses hence you cannot completely focus on your studies. Hence Its India for masters!

But you have to also think if doing it here in India will make a difference? Will it be as valued? And also keep in mind that the competition here will be immense.

Answer 21

According to me, what matters is the education. It will be a waste if you go abroad and get admission in any other Institute then your 2 years will be wasted and your money aswell

And

If you choose to stay here and get admission in any colleges then it will be the same case just you would spend less money!

Indian universities do not allow changing branches once the course has began, but most of the universities abroad has this facility. It makes it easier for students to change their streams mid course.

Answer 28

Obviously its better to do in India. You'll save a lot of money.

Answer 29

In India we lack practical knowledge. We are taught the theory part of the subjects but never got the opportunity to know how exactly things work which is the most important requirement of companies. In most of the colleges in abroad they have a co-op sem where they can apply their theoritical knowledge.

Answer 30

You should do masters in abroad because many countries provider good scholarship.. and if you are studying abroad then you can work part time to take care of your expenses which will help you become independent..

Knowledge is knowledge, you can gain it from anywhere.

Just do it from wherever its easy for you to do it from.

Answer 33

If you're not a bookworm and have good experience with extra curriculum it would be easier to get in a good university abroad. But totally depends on you.

Answer 34

In India you know as what actually colleges are but that won't happen in Abroad as there are only a bunch of prestigious colleges and the remaining colleges are just for the sake.  So my suggestion would be that either you get into one of the renowned colleges in India or if planning for abroad verify the status of the college you get into.

All the best @Hannah
