According to these figures, Germany, Canada, the US, Italy, and Australia, are the top 5 nations where more Indian understudies like to study. As indicated by the new draft of UGC, presently understudies will want to get an undergrad ‘Respects’ degree solely after finishing four years rather than three years.
