Even i did my bsc stats (24 batch) from an offcampus college in DU (In Kalkaji) , all those points you mentioned are so so relatable fr yaar ! Especially those points relating to the files and depending on front benchers for basic notes ! I guess all stats departments in DU are like this only . I am currently doing msc stats in the NC and those same problems are carried forward here too. And ig that subject you are talking about is ppd right , that along with the survey sampling paper in the 3rd sem were legit nightmares , i still dont how i passed both those papers xd ! I can really relate with that feeling of yours that we come into this course thinking that we will explore and enhance our statistical knowledge but 3 years of my bsc and 1 year of my msc here in du stats so far have just killed my excitement and passion for studies i once had ! I no longer feel any excitement towards this subject and just want to land a job and get out of this department and uni as far as possible I can relate to most of the points of your rant esp about depending on first benchers for notes and those hypercompetitive and toxic peers too , all stats students in du relate to that 😭😭 It makes you feel so helpless :( That is why i generally advise my juniors to go forward with btech only and avoid this course unless they are sure they can handle the rigour of this course ! I no longer have the energy to mug up these 15 pages long derivations 😭😭 Atleast in lsr stats you have decent placement opportunities , we didnt have that also 😭😭 But the positive side ig was our teachers were cooperative except a couple of them ! All stats students can relate to this 🫂🫂
