Pros and cons of the Government College Barasat.
Placements: The students who have passed out from this college are getting jobs through their own skills; there is no placement session conducted by the college. If you want to have an internship or any other opportunity, you have to arrange it on your own, and that is the worst part of this college.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college is very good, including the library, lab, and classrooms. However, there is no hostel facility provided by the college. Many students who come from other districts have to rent their own rooms. I think that is a very big problem.
Faculty: In this college, the professors are very good; they are very professional in their teaching careers. Other curricular activities that happen in this college are very good, such as social work and many other things. The exam pattern and the management system of this college are very good, in my opinion.
Other: I chose English Honours because it is a very professional course. The best thing about it is that we learn about the language deeply. The event campus crowd is okay. The scholarships you can get are the Nabanna Scholarship, which is worth 10,000, and the Swami Vivekananda Scholarship, which is worth 12,000.

Our college was very good.
Placements: The percentage of students placed was 79%. Many established companies recruited us. In my course, the lowest package started from 2 LPA and the highest package was 3.5 LPA. A government school offered me a position as a professor. Overall, this course was very good.
Infrastructure: Many facilities were available in our department, such as the library and Wi-Fi facility. There was a canteen on our campus. The food quality was very good. We also had a playground on our campus. There was a first aid room as well. Also, we had a hostel in our college.
Faculty: Our teachers were very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. Their teaching quality was great. This course made students industry-ready. Our semester exams in this college were not very difficult. The semester pass percentage was 35%.

Hood collates good placements.
Placements: Only 50% of the students were there in my course. The highest package was 35,000, and the minimum was 20,000. No companies, mainly schools. Seventy-two percent of students got internships. The top roles in my course include being a professor, teaching in classes, or being a teacher.
Infrastructure: The classrooms were really large, with proper ventilation and fans working properly. The benches were also in good condition, not broken or so. The canteen food was quite good; it was delicious. When you gorge on your food, the students should consider it.
Faculty: The teachers were helpful and helped us understand the topic later if we asked some questions. The student graduates have been given good training to pursue the job they wanted to do. The semester is moderate, not so tough, not so easily. Last-minute revision is enough to pass.
Other: The events at the festival are quite good.

I am absolutely satisfied because of the faculty; and really good infrastructure.
Placements: 10-12% of students were placed in my course. Yearly, 1200 were taken from us for the course, and student concessions on the fees were also available for needy students.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi was available, well-maintained lab, classrooms are large, and hardly any books are not available in the library. I can't give information about the hostel, as I have not used it, but the quality of the food available in the canteen was very good.
Faculty: Obviously, there are two semesters of exams each year. 90% is the pass percentage.

My College Experience During My Time at Barasat Government College (WB, India).
Placements: 34% of students of Barasat government College placed in my course. If I talk about the highest package course price, it was 2399 rupees, the average was 1999 rupess and the lowest CTC was 1399 rupees.

Also includes the following facilities: 24*7 Wi-Fi connectivity provided in my college. 24x7 electricity and water supply in all the hostels. Unfortunately, there were no hostel facilities available in our college.
Faculty: Well, in our college there 89% of teachers were friendly, knowledgeable & qualified too. But the rest of them were not too bad. Some Professional values/ lesson taught by this college which are good for make students industry ready.
