Hello ,

I tried to message you but I wasn't able . I am Akshaya and I scored 812 in gate Bt. And I am really interested to pursue neuroscience further . There is direct PhD in neuroscience in iisc for which I have already applied. Many are advising me not to go into direct PhD. Kindly give you opinion if it is advisable to take this course and if it is actually valued in India.

Hoping for a reply.

Thankyou

Hello Akshaya,

If you really have a keen interest in neuroscience then it won't be a bad idea to pursue direct phd from iisc. But make sure you know about the kind of research that they do and if that indeed suits your particular interests. PhD is a long commitment and in IISc it can take 5-7 years. So just make sure you spend this time doing something you actually love.

Hope it helps
All th best
