Agriculture college to conduct pre-qualification exam for PG Students



Nagpur’s well known College of Agriculture has announced the pre-qualification exam for PG Students for all nine subjects taught in college.

However, this is not the first time the college has taken this decision. In its earlier decision, it has drawn lot of opposition. But this time, the college's associate dean VS Gonge has taken the decision after seeking consent of students as well as the teachers. "It is an effort to improve the future prospects of the passing out post graduate students. Immediately after MSc, students have to face job interviews as well as interviews for entrance to doctoral degree. But truly speaking, except for academic information, they are not at all equipped to face these interviews and have little knowledge of future job or research prospects. This exam will prepare them for all this," said Gonge.

This pre-qualification exam will consist of 50 mark objective questions that will cover academic portion, general knowledge as well as names and works of various state and national agricultural bodies and institutions. 

This examination will also help to know students' knowledge on various crops in country, cultivation practices, books and journals in the field of agriculture, both national and international ones.
