The Review of Barasat Government College.

Placements: Our college don't provide any placement step up. If you want a job, then you must find it yourself. But our college degree has value. With this degree, no one can reject you from a job for the degree. But if you want to join this college for a job, then I say don't do it.

Infrastructure: In this college, they provide classrooms with whiteboards and projectors, which are very helpful for studying. In the library, you can find most books without any problem, and they provide a computer in the library. There is also college Wi-Fi that you can access with your mobile number. The college doesn't have any hostel for students.

Faculty: Most of the teachers in the college are helpful, but some teachers aren't very helpful. The teaching quality is decent, and the course curriculum isn't that much good. Exams for the semester are decent in terms of difficulty level. You can pass with 25%.

A review of Barasat Government College.

Placements: This is not a technical or engineering college, so there is no placement cell or on-campus placements. Students usually pursue higher studies after completing this degree course. Most students who have completed this course get jobs through their own skills, as there is no placement session conducted by the college. If you want to do an internship, you have to arrange it on your own.

Infrastructure: The college has a big and well-maintained campus. It has a very strong Wi-Fi connection all over the campus, but there is a daily limit of 1 GB per day on the Wi-Fi network. The library has a huge collection of books, journals, and magazines. The library also has computers for students to use within the library. The laboratories are good, with very good and enough equipment. There's no hostel in the college, so students have to rent rooms outside the college. There is no mess, but there is one canteen inside the college, although the canteen food is not hygienic.

Faculty: Professors in this college are very good and professional. The faculty-to-student ratio is good, and the faculty members have a good demeanor. The course curriculum is quite relevant to real-life applications. Students can either go for a job or pursue higher studies after completing this degree. Semester exams are moderate to easy in difficulty. Mostly, all the students pass the exams.

Other: I chose this college because I wanted to take a drop year for the JEE exam, but I wanted to have a backup option. The best thing about this course is that it is very professional. The college campus is very positive, and there is no harassment or bullying inside the college campus. People here are very positive, and seniors try to help us in every way possible. We have our annual fest called EXUBERANCE, which is quite decent.

Barasat Government College review.

Placements: This college doesn't offer any placement. But this college helps to build our career to achieve a placement and job. The college provides many webinars that help students build their careers and help to build our careers in agriculture, forestry and botany fields.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available anywhere in the college. The college library has good enough books for students. Classrooms are good enough. Labs are cleaned and good enough. This college has a small canteen and the food quality is quite good and this college has a small playground with a badminton ground. And college doesn't provide any hostels.

Faculty: Teachers are very good enough and they are very helpful for students with their knowledge and experience. Professors are well qualified. This course helps students learn about agricultural industries and it helps students learn about flora and forestry. Semester exams are not too difficult and the percentage of students is about 75-90%.

Other: This college organizes a festival every year. Any kind of government. Scholarships are available at the college. This college has NCC, NSS and a science club.

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.

Most budget friendly course in a government college with a ragging free campus.

Placements: Their are some seniors who are doing research at prominent institutions with 6 L per year. While many of our seniors are teachers at other government colleges and schools with 7-10 L per annum. Also, some of them are in public sector, working as government employees. Some are also doing business that is related to course.

Infrastructure: Good canteen with cheap prices, healthy food, and a great environment. No bullying, harassment, or discrimination. CCTV coverage makes it more safe. Big library with great collection. Digital classroom with projector and laptop. Wi-Fi and laptop usable for study.

Faculty: Faculty are very friendly and highly informative. They provides all type of guidance and resources for study. Staff are very efficient and helpful. Lab assistant are very informative and caring. Also, the syllabus and exam are helpful for competitive exams and great jobs. Value-added courses are also organized for teaching us real-time skills.

Other: Our campus is really the most positive campus in my observation. No harassment, bullying, or discrimination is tolerated by our principal and working body.
