I have a B.Com (Computers) with 60.30% and I'm considering doing a PG through IGNOU.

My long-term goal is primarily banking, but I’m also interested in potentially moving into regulatory bodies like RBI/SEBI in the future.

I'm currently confused between MA Economics, M.Com, and MA English.

From what I understand:

- MA Economics could be more relevant to economics/policy and some specialist regulatory opportunities.

- M.Com is the most natural continuation of B.Com and is directly relevant to commerce, finance and banking.

- MA English is less directly related to banking, but some regulatory exams accept a master's degree in any discipline, so I'm wondering whether it could still be a sensible option.

I'm not particularly interested in RBI DEPR, so I'm not choosing Economics specifically for that route.

For people who have done any of these degrees, or have experience with banking/regulatory careers:

- Which of the three would you recommend and why?

- Does MA Economics provide a meaningful advantage over M.Com for RBI/SEBI/regulatory careers?

- Would M.Com be more useful/relevant given my B.Com background?

- Is MA English a reasonable choice if the main purpose is to have a PG qualification while continuing banking preparation?

- How useful are these degrees for career progression after entering banking/regulatory organisations?

- Are there any other IGNOU PG programmes I should consider?

I'd really appreciate perspectives from people who have actually pursued these degrees or work in banking/regulatory organisations.

So, I'll go first.

I remembered this while enjoying my morning coffee in the lawn just now. Back in my teenage/young adult years, I was very keen on getting my nose pierced. So, at around 21 or 22, I asked my mother to take me to a jewellery shop, and she did.

We went, got it pierced, and came back home.

Two days in, I couldn't wear it anymore. I was getting terrible headaches, and since I have oily skin, my nose looked like someone had just polished it with a fatty oil brush 🥲 (Oily-skin girlies will understand.)

So I decided to remove it because I was clearly not enjoying the experience. I mean, besides the piercing pain, obviously. 😂

Then my mom goes, "Why are you removing it? It looks so good on you! Once it's pierced, you shouldn't remove it."

I wasn't listening and was very adamant about taking it out.

Then she hit me with:

"The breath a woman takes when she's intimate with her husband is not good for the husband. So if she wears a nose ring, the gold in the ornament will purify her air, and her husband won't have any problems." 💀💀💀

I went ahead and got that thing removed, of course.

But WHAT SHE SAID STAYED WITH ME. 😂

Guess who watched it for the first time and are absolutely traumatised and cried alot while watching it? 😭😭😭

Well Here's the vent!

I got into this relationship when I was 26 and he was 4 years younger to me.. At first it was good and 3 disappointed Anniversaries and Lots of manipulation later, here we are..

I'm scared that if I leave this relationship, I can't find anything again! And that I'll be left alone because I grew up hearing women expire at 30.. I was shit scared to even turn 30.. I hate this.. i don't even know what to do!

​

I just need to share this incredibly sweet, low-stakes moment that completely turned my mood around today.

There’s been this car parked slightly down the street, right outside my house. And there’s a guy inside it. He’s cute. For the first time in the longest time, I felt this sudden, warm spark of a harmless crush. I found myself standing by our outside front gate, just trying to steal a few glances doing that classic thing where you pretend to be deeply interested in something far off in the distance, but your eyes are secretly drifting to the side.

I thought I was being so stealthy. I kept my head perfectly straight, staring at nothing, and slowly turned just my pupils to look at him.

But the universe caught me out. The absolute second my eyes moved toward him, I realized his eyes were already completely locked onto mine. He hadn't just looked up, he had been watching me all along, waiting for me to finally look back.

That instant, mutual eye contact hit me with the highest tier of butterflies. It was this beautiful, sudden jolt of pure electric nerves. I panicked, did a total fire-drill tactical retreat, and ran right back inside the house because I got so scared! 😭

The car isn't there anymore, but honestly, I'm just sitting inside blushing and waiting for it to come back. It was just a few silent seconds, but it reminded me how effortless and beautiful it feels when someone just looks at you, appreciates you, and leaves you with nothing but smiles.

And also The next process of lpt, dv and medical kab hota hai? Can anyone please tell me if they have some slightest idea?

Thank you.

So SBI PO is not a great job because of cross selling, sales targets and every other 69 kinds of stress is too high!! Ibps po is no better either because again stress and No WLB. Recently I saw a post saying "Don't join RRB PO" because it's rural (imagine that) and Too hard circumstances after the job.

​

Also saw some posts back then that the sbi clerk is again- stress filled.. Ibps clerk and rrb clerk are on the bottom of the food chain so not everyone complains about them or maybe they have and I missed it. So we covered 6 major exams here. Baseline is every job is stressful, no WLB, No fans and no ac in rural postings, Stress (yeah let's mention it again it's ok) And etc..

​

Okay My sincere question for y'all - What should we prepare for then? We should somehow get a job right? It's not like we can sit in the house and eat parents money.. regulatory bodies only release like 40 posts every year and Unemployed youth numbers are 92639 times higher than that. If it's women- it's worse because parents force them for marriage saying "why do u need to work as a girl?"

And if it's men - "When will you get a job? You are already 22-23 years old Why haven't you become a CEO of the World Bank already? Look at sharmaji ka beta he started working on becoming world bank ceo from his first ever birthday on this earth.. and in 20 years he became CEO. only we got such a son" (of course I'm being satirical but parents expectations are sky high)

​

So again- what should we prepare for if everything is bad for us?

It was something like

" Six persons, facing inside a circle.. all like different colors. E sits adjacent to C and The one who likes pink. B sits third to the right of C. The person who likes blue sits immediate left of the person who likes red. People who like blue and red does not sit adjacent to B. D sits immediate right of the person who likes blue."

There was more but i remember this.. can anyone solve this? I tried 4 assumptions and almost for 5 mins for this in the exam but I was unable to.
