Everything you need to know about Gargi and how to survive it.
Placements: Gargi College, University of Delhi, sees consistent recruitment from companies like Boston Consulting Group, Bain & Company, Ernst & Young (E&Y), KPMG, The D. E. Shaw Group, Accenture, PwC, Wipro, and more. The placement cell works hard for the students day and night.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is amazing, but there is no hostel facility, as plenty of PGs and flats are available nearby. Classrooms are spacious, and the library is the best place to be if you're looking for a peaceful place to study. The canteen is okay, and the food is fine and at least edible. The college has a functional medical room, and sports like football, cricket, tennis, basketball, and volleyball are played here.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful in every manner and are always ready to listen to students' needs. The semester exams are moderately difficult, so if you're not attentive during the lectures, you can't pass exams. But they only require 2-3 days of hard studying to ace them.
Other: I choose Bachelor of English Hons because I love literature, and the course offers other disciplines as well, such as philosophy, psychology, and environmental studies. The college has an annual fest called Reverie, and they invite singers to perform. The three-day-long festival really brings the fun.

Gargi College: The safest place.
Placements: One should maintain more than 7 CGPA to get placed from our college. The college does provide internships regularly and placements after college. Various recruiting companies such as Boston Consulting Group, and Brain and Company visit for placements. The highest salary package of last year touched the range of 23 LPA.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the department is really cool and aesthetic made up of the iconic red walls. Our English department has its own library which is separate from campus library. Classrooms are spacious and nice. Our college doesn't provide the facility of hostel but there are various PGs nearby for the service.
Faculty: Faculty members of our department are great with good experience. They are compassionate towards students which makes it easier to ask doubts and give opinions freely. Teachers are also very understanding and accepting of students. Semester exam I gave this year was easy. Passing criteria is 40%.
Other: I have chosen English literature for my undergraduate degree. It is a vast course, which includes plays, poetry, and novels of different genres, regions, and timelines. These help students to build better cognitive thinking skills and deep analysis of the text. English department has to study various text, so one must have good close reading skills for analysis. I wish we could do those plays which we read. Events are filled with fun and livelyness. There are various talented societies which makes it even more fun.

The Gargi College: Really good crowd and supportive classmates and faculty members.
Placements: There has been no placement from our batchmates because we are in the 1st year, and usually, the college doesn't take students from 1st year. The highest package in my course depends on the factors, but the highest is 7.8 Lacs per annum, and the average is 4 Lacs.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. The buildings are interconnected with each other, and there are many departments, such as the English department, Psychology department, etc. There is a department for each course. There is no Wi-Fi in our college for the students, but yes, there are labs, classrooms, and a library, which are quite good but very small. There is no hostel in the college, and there is no variety of food.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful, and some of the teachers are Ph.D. holders, while many of them are pursuing their Ph.D. The semester exams are moderate in level. If you have the ability for critical thinking, you can easily pass them. 1 DSC is of 160 marks, with 90 marks for the theoretical exam, and the rest is for internals. The passing mark is 33% out of 160.
Other: The college is good and very peaceful. There's no fight or argument ever done in the college. The environment is good, and there are many trees that provide greenery. The seniors are very helpful and support us, trying to help us until we are comfortable with the college environment.
