I am satisfied with my college but it depends on the student what they expect from the college.
Placements: There are no placements at this college. I think in science department and in BCA and B.Com departments have their placements something like 2.4 LPA but this is average. If you have your job experience, you can earn more salary but from college no good companies.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure and buildings are good. Classrooms are good, and some classes have smart boards. Hostel buildings are good with proper beds and washrooms. Some of them are not good but some hostel buildings are good. There is no specific mess in the hostel.
Faculty: Teachers are very intelligent and they are very friendly. Every department has its best teachers, and the classes are regular. During the semester exams, teachers help their students as best as they can. Passing percentage is 35%. Sometimes the semester exam questions are too tough.
Other: The college is in my hometown, that's why I chose this college. Overall, everything is good. There are some annual fests, dance competitions, etc.

College is not good, infrastructure is very bad. Faculty is not good, placement is not good.
Placements: Maximum 10% student got placement. Package is 2 lpa as the highest package, 1 lpa as lowest and average package is 1.50 lpa. Companies like ujala, finacae bank come to this college. 0% students got internship in this college. Top course of this college is B.A.
Infrastructure: Facilities of this college is not good and if I'm taking about infrastructure then its very bad. Hostel is there but condition of hostel is very bad. Canteen is there in college, quality of food is good. Mess is also there in college, medical facilities is not there in college. Sports and games annually happened in college.
Faculty: Teachers are good and helpful. Teaching quality is good but course is not completed on time. Teachers of this college are qualified. Most popular course of this college is B.A. Curriculum of this college is good but students are not ready for industry. Semester exam of this college is not more difficult. Pass percentage of this college is 90%.
Other: Course is very good of this college and faculty give you proper information, college need to improve faculty. Talking about campus, all those things are average.

It is a decent college for the students of arts stream.
Placements: There is no scope for placements for our course, and as it is a course of the arts stream, so no companies visit our department for recruiting. None of the students got internships from our course. None of the students also got placed.
Infrastructure: Our college is average in terms of infrastructure, but it has neat, clean and spacious classrooms. The campus is quite clean, but there are no Wi-Fi facilities, and the library remains closed all the time. The condition of toilets should be improved as they remain dirty throughout the year.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, cooperative, and they are adequately qualified for their designations. I like the teaching style of every teacher, but I desperately wait for the HOD sir classes. The course curriculum helps only in BPSC, and it doesn't make the students industry-ready.
Other: I chose this course as I have the aim to prepare for civil service exams like UPSC and other PCS exams, and it will be helpful and relevant for me. I wish that the college should provide a library with a handful of books and also the Wi-Fi facility. Surroundings of the college are quite pleasing as enough trees are planted on the campus. The college is situated on the bank of the Ganga river, which is also a good thing.

If your marks are good, don't take admission in this college.
Placements: The placements are not available in this college. They can give you only a degree certificate, and don't hope for placements in this college. It is a bad thing in the college. The degree is only helpful for competitive exams and other government services.
Infrastructure: The building is very old, and it needs to be improved a lot. The library facility is good, and all the books are available. The condition in the classrooms is average. The medical facilities are also average. Medical kits are available. Games and sports facilities are good, and the equipment is available.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, much qualified, and they are very knowledgeable. The teaching quality of the teachers are really good, and they teach us in a very good manner. They are friendly and are very cooperative in nature. 20 courses are available including B.A and M.A.
Other: Events are organised at regular intervals. Fests are also held in a year. The campus crowd is very good, and all the students participate in the events. Extracurricular activities including games and sports are held here.

I don't suggest you get admission in this college.
Placements: The placement of B. N. college is not very good. I saw a notification of Wipro that they provide Rs. 13,500 per month and the company was also providing them MCA and salary were increase yearly basis. All the students didn't get campus selection, and a very few got the opportunity.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of B. N. College is very worse there is lack of management in this college the classroom in which we studied is 100 years old then do not bother to maintain this. There is lack of facilities which are available to the student. Everything present in this college is of British time much needed to change them.
Faculty: The faculty of our college are very good they are very cooperative. They are ready to help the students every time whenever we required their help. All the faculty are highly qualified in terms of degree, and they are much knowledgeable. They always come in time, not like other college or universities.
Other: Every year, many events and programs are held just to entertain the students. There is a connectivity in between the students, and many extracurricular activities are performed from the management side.

    Can I change the subsidiary subject in 1st year?

    Answered 2 years ago

    Yes, you can change your subjects in BA first year and you take that subjects which were not there in your 12th Class. But, you should have that much percentage that will be required to qualify that course's cutoff. This is the only condition for changing the subjects in BA first year.
