I am satisfied with the infrastructure and faculty members of the college.

Placements: There are good placement facilities in this college. Many companies hire students as they find them capable of doing a particular job. The highest package is 30 LPA. The average package ranges from 5-10 LPA in my course. Many top recruiting companies like Intel, Swiggy, Instamart, etc., hire students. Many students got internships from my course. Almost 75% of students got internships in different companies.

Infrastructure: There are many basic facilities like proper electricity and water supply. The infrastructure of the college is very good. One can easily find classrooms and labs. One can also get assistance in the library easily. The quality of food available in the canteen is hygienic. They use gloves and a cap while making the food. Medical facilities, sports, and games are available.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and they teach very interestingly so that students get to know every topic deeply. Exams are not too difficult. If we once read books, then we can easily pass those exams. The pass percentage is at least 33%.

Other: I chose this course because I wanted to do English honours which will help me in my future jobs. Different youth fests are conducted by the colleges in which many students participate enthusiastically and perform for the college.

Really good college, the college is in the city, and different fests and events are conducted.

Placements: Above 76% in 12 boards, students are taken in my course which is BA. In B.A. there is no package or no company comes to hire students but in professional courses like B.Sc. in computer science and BCA-like courses companies come and hire students. It is a government college so this is the most important point.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the overall college is good, fans are in all the rooms. Light is available, and all are in good working condition. The block of arts, science, and commerce are different and professional courses like BBA block is different. Our college has auditorium, canteen, sports ground, etc. Hostel is quite good. All facilities are provided in the hostel and fee of hostel is also affordable. Mess of the hostel and food is quite amazing.

Faculty: All teachers are post-graduates and Ph.D. holders. Even different subjects have different teachers. Sports teachers are also good. Teaching quality is also good, they give knowledge from both books as well as practical. Different programs and events are conducted related to studies. Exams are good as well as difficult for those who do not study, but those who study exams are easy for them because all the topics are covered in classes.

Other: Many fests and events are going on once a week so it is very good. Teachers are also friendly, and students MD seniors are also helpful. The college is in the city, so all the things are near the college.

SD College, Chandigarh - worth it or not.

Placements: I don't have much idea about placements as this is my first year, but the college enjoys a good reputation for placements, and it also advertises a 100% placement record. The college is under Panjab University, so after graduation, students receive a degree from PU, and PU is reputed, and this can help in getting placements.

Infrastructure: The college has great facilities. It has four canteens, and various types of products are available in each one of them. Refreshments are also available at an affordable price. The college has a big library, and almost all kinds of books are available there and are properly arranged so that students can find them easily. There is also a reading hall above the canteen where we can study peacefully.

Faculty: Teachers are really a great support to students. Teachers are also qualified and supportive and dig deep into the topic for students to understand. The course is also relevant. There are also various subjects like business communications and financial literacy that can be of some help to students in the real, practical world. The semester exams are not much difficult. They are easy but a bit lengthy. The pass percentage is 25%, but the time given is three hours for a 90-mark exam, and that many students feel is less, and that is a fallback.

Other: I chose economics honors because I aim to do either IFS or banking service work. The college holds regular fests, and there are also grounds and proper playing conditions for all the sports, and labs are also in good condition. The only thing is that sometimes the benches of classes feel very uncomfortable.

Good college for upcoming students.

Placements: As I have just passed out from this college, from Bachelor of Arts. The college campus is very good, and teachers are also highly qualified. Internships are also included in this college as the teacher encourages us to do the internship and guide us in everything.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is very good. They are good in sports, which includes NCC, NSS, etc. The college canteen's food is also good; we always eat from the canteen. It is very hygienic, and the quality of the food is very good. The hostel of the college is also good, which includes AC and coolers.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful in the college, and they are highly qualified. They are very friendly and teach each and every thing very properly. The semester exams are also kind of easy because our teacher teaches us in a very good manner. Pass percentage is also a genuine in the college.

Other: The college campus and study both are good for a student. I will definitely recommend students take admission in this college. Students can also enjoy their student life in the college; it is very good. The crowd of the college is very good, as well as the fests and events that were also there.

Don't take admission by seeing the advertisement and listening to others.

Placements: During my two years at college, I've noticed a lack of placement opportunities, which I haven't heard much about from our college. Many of my seniors who have graduated also reported that they did not find placement options available to them through our college. As a result, I feel discouraged about the chances of securing a placement through our institution. I believe there should be some initiatives in place to connect students with companies, including options for those who may not be achieving high grades. This way, all students could have a fair chance of being enrolled in any company through the college.

Infrastructure: I don't stay in the hostel. My friends have complained about the hostel food and maintenance. Wi-Fi is available for students, but it is not good. It doesn't connect and provide internet. Classrooms have broken benches. Fans are full of dust. Whiteboards are like they are never cleaned.

Faculty: Faculty members are not good. Our college should hire good teachers. Some of them don't come on time during the class timings. Some do not conduct class and send someone else. Teachers should be more active as many of them are lost while teaching.

Other: The campus is good but not as promised during the rainy season. The waterlogging problem is there on the campus and in the ground which is hard for students to move from one class to another class during rain.
