    IIT-B Engineering Physics or IISc BS?

    Hmm, well basically the EP course will have several subjects like networks and systems, analog circuits, etc. so as long as your interest is within *basic* science be it Physics or some branch of Physics I would suggest going for the BS course. Firstly, EP is still a bit diverted from a full...
