Remarks
Entrance Exam
No I did not give any enreace test and was chosen just based on my class 12th score. I had to appear for an interview. I have been passionate towards chemical reaction and stuff like that so chemistry was an obvious choice for me.
Fees
The fee Structure is very affordable as it is a government college. i paid fees approx 5,000 for a year. I am blessed that I am getting a quality education and guidance under such experienced faculties at this reasonable fees
Placements
The Placement are not good. 0 students of college get placed even after having so many experienced faculties. There is not even a single company that visited the college for placement.
Hostel and Facilities
I did not take hostel so I don’t have any info.
Alumni
Faculty
The faculty is very experienced and most of them are have masters in their respective subject along with tons of industry experience.
Campus Life
Gender ratio is not good in my college. Around 1:3.Diversity is is there in my college. Sports level is high volleyball , cricket and football usally play in my campus. Workshop facilities was not so good.My school's lab is highly appreciated by my dean. Useful tools and equipment available here.
Academics
The exam is very relaxing and the exam papers are from the syllabus and nothing from out of the syllabus. faculties are very experienced so they focus more on practical learning they apply the innovation in teaching as per the guidelines
Internships
No internship is provided to students, students of other course might get internship but nit us. Internship and placement scene of my course is the worst.
Loans and Scholarships
Yes so many scholarship is available for in my college . Scholarship is categorised by streams. Refundable Scholarships for poor students . B.sc students also getting scholarship .These scholarships is generally for obc/sc/st students
Remarks
The college is pretty good. It is one of the top colleges of in the city. The college provides admission based on entrance test and also management seats for some of the courses. Like any other college, the management seats are pretty expensive. My course did not have any entrance and I got direct admission.
Entrance Exam
I did not give any entrance test for admission into the college and was admitted based just on my class 12th score. Also, I was provided direct admission and did not had to give any interview.
Fees
The fee of the college is manageable and is around Rs 30k per year. I believe it is pretty manageable for students belonging to middle class and easily affordable for students belonging to the upper class. Some scholarship is also provided by state and central govt which students can check out but I am not very sure about this.
Placements
Most of the placement offers are domestic but some international offers are also provided to students. But this depends on course to course in my course this was not the scene. Most of the students in my batch including me decided to go for higher students rather than taking a job.
Hostel and Facilities
The hostel life here was fun.
Alumni
The seniors are very friendly and understanding. Though, through my interaction with them, they all seem to be very supportive and have helped me in many occasions regarding assignment and even career advices.
Faculty
The faculty of the college is professional and at the same time are humble and understanding. The teachers are unbiased and do not just give marks on face-value. You have to earn each and every mark but attending lectures and labs and completing and submitting the assignments on time.
Campus Life
Being a reputed college, these is hardly any bullying. The campus life is great as you getb to meet a lot of people. The gender ratio is around 1:10 i.e 1 girl and 10 boys. Though this is not the case with every course. Maybe that’s the case of engineering
Academics
The labs are of 2 hours everyday. The college is of 5 days a week. And 5 subjects have labs. So lab take place each day. They were not chilled out. You would have to try very hard to grasp concept and procedure and perform the experiment. Exams were long and hectic There are 7 exams on alternative days ( generally) Which leaves you hating your college after they end.
Internships
Loans and Scholarships
I don’t have much knowledge about the scholarship provided by the university but your should for sure check with the college authorities as they will be able to help you and provide you more information about this.
