The verdict
Worth considering
This is a guilt-free, low-debt M.Sc for students who are self-driven and research-oriented. The 30% placement rate means you need a solid backup plan like NET, GATE, or PhD apps, but the tiny cohort and tiny fee make it a smart stepping stone rather than a financial gamble.
