It's a proper place to grow your career.

Review of Nehru College of Management.

Placements: All the organisations came under Nehru Group of Institutions. It was known for its best placement process and intensive training. The companies with good packages were selectively filtered and permitted to attend drives. A few of such companies, like Amphisoft, New Age Solutions, Axis Securities, Karvy, Jaro, and JP Morgan Chase, gave 40+ offers for MCA with a 4 LPA package.

Infrastructure: Despite offline features in all departments payment process, food ordering, and others, all the online features were initiated and handled in a better way.

Faculty: Professors were more excited and kept enjoying with the students at events and functions. At the same time, they were too tough during the curriculum. They were literally too tough to understand, like what their next move would be. Professors built a good bond with the students.

Other: Busy events followed one another frequently, filled with fun and good vibes. It was one of the best colleges in Coimbatore to enjoy college life in the best version.

Honest review of RVS Institute of Management Studies and Research.

Placements: Frankly speaking, I am in my first year and don't know much about the placement wing. However, recently, I saw a lot of posters regarding companies on the placement department wall. Companies queue up for FMS Delhi. Around 140 companies offer 190 offers to 150 students. The average salary is 15 LPA, as I recall.

Infrastructure: The hostel fee is Rs. 30,000 per year. The mess fee is Rs. 2,300. The hostel is really good. Cleanliness is always maintained. The infrastructure is good.

Faculty: Faculty members are very supportive and always try to help students. Many faculty members are geniuses. They come to classes regularly and on time, and bunking of classes by teachers is almost negligible. I am really happy with the faculty. Most faculty members also possess an M.Tech degree from reputed institutions. The course curriculum is a bit loose, but the gaps are matched through interaction with students and faculty from other departments. Faculty is, of course, the best-rated one, whether it is the dean or other visiting faculty members. Talking about exams, there is no doubt that RVSCET is doing far better than many small NITs in terms of exams, tests, and results. There are two internal exams and a semester-end exam for the assessment of students in each semester. The exams are conducted in a relaxed manner. There is a day between papers, which gives students enough time to prepare well. We really don't feel too much work pressure.
