Hello everyone! I'm from Northeast India and completed my BBA in 2025. My bachelor's was not in Psychology, but I'm now seriously interested in pursuing Clinical Psychology as a career.

I'm a little confused about the eligibility and would really appreciate advice from Psychology students/professionals.

I have a few questions:

• With a BBA degree, can I apply for an MA/MSc Psychology?
• If I complete an MA/MSc Psychology, will I then be eligible to pursue Clinical Psychology?
• What qualification do I need after my MA Psychology to become a professional Clinical Psychologist?
• Is an MA Psychology → MA Clinical Psychology the correct pathway?
• Is M.Phil Clinical Psychology still an option, or has it been replaced by the new M.A. Clinical Psychology?
• If someone has a BA/BSc Psychology, do they have a shorter/directer route into Clinical Psychology compared with someone from a BBA background?
• Since I'm starting from BBA, what would be the best and most straightforward route for me to eventually become a Clinical Psychologist?

I'm seeing different information everywhere, so I'd really appreciate it if someone who has actually gone through this pathway could explain it simply.

One more thing I'm confused about: I'm also considering doing my Psychology master's abroad, possibly a 1-year master's. Would a 1-year foreign master's in Psychology be valid/acceptable for continuing into Clinical Psychology in India? Or would it be better to complete my MA Psychology in India first and then pursue Clinical Psychology abroad? I'd especially appreciate advice from anyone who has dealt with this situation.

Thank you! ❤️

Is anyone here from RGU College? I’m considering applying for a Diploma in Mass Communication or an MA in Psychology.

I’d love to know:

• When will admissions open?
• How is the college and faculty?
• How are the placements/career opportunities?
• Anyone currently pursuing either of these courses who can share their experience?

Any advice would really help. Thanks!

I'm just starting my career as a Social Media Manager and would love some advice on pricing.

They paid me ₹5000 for a 50-day internship, which I felt was quite low considering the workload and responsibilities. Despite that, I gave my best, improved the account's reach and engagement, and they were very happy with my work. Now they've asked if I'd like to continue, either as a freelancer or full-time. I don't want to undervalue myself again, so I'd like to know what would be a fair rate to charge..

I'm also applying to other companies across different niches, so I'd like to understand the current market rates before accepting any offer.

These were my responsibilities:

30 Instagram Reels per month (1 reel every day)

2 Carousels every week

Additional static posts when needed

Daily Instagram Stories

Community management (replying to comments & DMs)

Content creation (captions, hooks, ideas, research)

Instagram analytics & performance tracking

Daily strategy meetings

Managed the company's LinkedIn as well (content planning and posting)

Content research and trend analysis

Helped improve overall reach and engagement

Now they've offered to continue working with me, either as a freelancer or full-time and also im looking some other company for freelance or full. who will pay 20k above

Since this is the beginning of my career, I'm not sure how much I should charge.

My questions are:

How much should I charge per month as a freelancer for this workload?

If I join full-time, what would be a fair monthly salary in India?

I'd really appreciate advice from experienced social media managers, freelancers, or agency owners. I want to make sure I price myself fairly this time instead of undervaluing my work.
