Thank you
Answer laterDoes FISD pg students have to write the same entramce exam that ug stdent would?? Like syllabus for both ug and pg FISD course is same or different??
First, let me explain you the difference between UG and PG. So, UGstands forUndergraduate course which is generally three or four years programme that is done after completing class 12th. On the other hand,PGstands for Postgraduate which is generally for one or two years.
Now as far as FISD certificate course is considered then it is not a UG or PG course rather its a certificate course.FISD professional certification course is designed for candidates who seek to establish a robust and comprehensive foundation for their career in the financial services industry.
So, either you have done a PG course or UG course, the admission process and exam will be same.
I hope this helps.
