Madras Christian College: a colorful experience .
Placements: According to the seniors, the placement solely depends on your merit, but again, the college has enough exposure for each course, so it's easy for placements and applying. The college is ranked in the top 10, and the companies do prioritize the college, and they even conduct internship fairs for students to apply.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is amazing and up to par, the college being amongst the jungle, it just blends in, making the ambience of the infrastructure better; the washrooms/toilets are great and well maintained, and there is a lounge specially and only for female students. The canteen is good too; even the library is amazing. It has multiple research sections for students.
Faculty: The faculty members are amazing and very friendly; they don't treat a student like an outsider. The curriculum for journalists is based on real-life cases and situations, and the exams are difficult and different based on the very curriculum.
There are 3 internals and one final examination in a semester.
Out of 3, the best 2 are taken and accumulated with the final examination.

Excellent infrastructure and highly recommended college.
Placements: Students placed in my course is higher than I thought, many students got placed and had the chance to be placed in top companies. About 85%of students got placements, many students got placed as an Editor, in Newsroom and also as a Anchor, Interviewer, It was worth to study the course, as this course involves searching, which was really fun and helped me gain more knowledge.
Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are available and the food quality, canteen, medical facilities everything is very good. Sports and games are also conducted in a high range, they do have a wide range of books in library and the classrooms are also big. Our college provides Wi-Fi for students, faculty members and all the other staff in the campus. They do have Wi-Fi in Library, classrooms, computer labs.
Faculty: The teaching is overall good as the faculty members are highly experienced, and they also help the students in extracurricular activities. The curriculum is also related to the course and the exams are in semester pattern and pass percentage is above 90%. The curriculum seems more theoretical and if you want to be a specialist in journalism, you can consider taking B.J.
Other: The best thing in MCC is the fest, cultural programs and extracurricular activities. We can enjoy the college life throughout the entire course.

There isn't like a XYZ number you need to get in order to get a seat in B.A. Journalism. a 70-80% would do good. In specific to MCC there is no separate entrance exam that you need to give. It is all based on the percentage that you achieve in class 12th.
