Studying here is like the worst night of my life.

Placements: Here at Chetana's Institute of Management and Research, from past few years, meaning from 2019 till present, placement is getting lower and lower. This is because of our placement cell; they don't help enough for placement, and if we give any feedback, they are not at all entertained.

Infrastructure: College building is too small, and there are no hostel facilities present here at Chetana's Institute of Management and Research. If students want to stay, they only have to find PGs or empty rooms to stay in, which is very bad for the student because this is an extra liability for the student.

Faculty: At Chetana's Institute of Management and Research, some of the teachers are helpful, and some are not at all helping. They don't care for us, which we have to tolerate throughout the course plan. I struggled for my 2-year course, from 2023-2025, because of this.

Other: At Chetana's Institute of Management and Research, the crowd is average, and events are very rarely done. A fest is also one thing which is done once in 2 years.

A decent MBA college.

Placements: Placements are pretty decent; the pay of the students is not disclosed and is kept confidential with the placement cell. The placement cell is very supportive of your request if brought forward in the right order. It is also very strict in terms of attire.

Infrastructure: This college does not have a hostel, but they have spacious classes, ACs in all the classrooms, and a playground for which you need to get permission from the director. There are projectors and speakers in every class, which are very useful for presentations.

Faculty: The faculty is good, helpful, and knowledgeable; if you show them that you are keen to learn, they will surely help you with whatever you want. Most of them are Ph.D. holders. The curriculum is helpful and quite updated, and exams are conducted in-house only.
