Placement expected salary.

Faculty: Some teachers are friendly, and some are arrogant. Teachers are helpful, they are always ready to make a 100-page novel understandable even if you are alone and want to learn. Curriculum activities are encouraged with yearly competitions. Scoring marks depends on how much you have prepared.

BESC- The beginning of something fantastic for the rest of your college years.

Faculty: Great, helpful, and knowledgeable teachers. Highly qualified with PhDs and multiple degrees. The course was curriculum-relevant, I believe. The semester exams were quite tough, but the teachers ensured to guide us enough to achieve good scores. The teachers look into each and every student's individual needs and help them with their weak spots.

Absolutely satisfied with my tenure during BESC.

BESC is the best, as with the slogan of the college, it's true.

Faculty: Calcutta University lags much in conducting semester exams. They take too much time. Every year, they start the semester on time. But the 1st semester itself takes 8-9 months for the exams. Hence, all the semesters get disturbed and delayed. There are no internals/Mid-semester in B.Com at this college.
