Why people dislike Ignou?

Why people dislike Ignou? Here are the reasons for it. The market of lemons or Information asymmetry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Market_for_Lemons 1) People fall into the fallacy trap that more money equals to more value. But with information asymmetry, more money does not necessarily provide more value. 2) People tend to think that qualifying super hard entrances and then getting admitted to college means you will get the best education.  But in reality, these entrances are mainly pointless and you gain no knowledge about your subject of specialization. For example, why study so much of  inorganic chemistry when you need to spend time on algorithms if you will do a degree in computer science.  3) People tend to believe that the correspondence course is less valuable than regular courses. But in reality, ignou courses are not fully correspondence. You would have to attend classes two days a week. That's the right balance of studying at home and getting mentorship weekly.  Yes
