All good and a lot of things have been improved in my college everyone should go for it.

Placements: My college is all good and about 75% of students have been placed the average package is 7 LPA. My college has given every student a good opportunity and almost every student who passed out from my college has got a nice job and going well. So I recommend taking admission here.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is an average according to me but studies are all good hostels are all well-maintained and available with all facilities. There is a library available with Wi-Fi available and many labs for students and all classrooms have AC with the projector as well as clean classes and clean washrooms with CCTV also.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful to me whatever doubt you have you can go and ask your teachers ready to solve it. Semester exams are not that difficult all is fine and good, like average. My favorite teacher is so kind, she always helps me and everyone is very open and cooperative. Every faculty member is very humble with every student and all over it is a good one you should choose. Faculty members are so humble and cooperative.

Other: I would like to say there is very little enjoyment sometimes so the college should introduce some more fests or competitions.
