Absolutely satisfied with the college. IIT Patna is a rapidly growing 2nd generation IIT..
Placements: Placements are good and are still ongoing. The data for this year is not out yet, but it is said that in my course, 70% of students are placed. Many got internships in the 3rd year and PPOs from that. EEE has an average package of 17 LPA. Roles like SDE and Consultancy are offered, with placements rapidly improving year by year.
Infrastructure: All hostels have Wi-Fi installed. Three students share one room in the 1st year boys’ hostel. The newly built library is now open and centrally located. Labs and workshops are well-equipped with all necessary equipment. CLH is amazing with big classrooms. Each department has its own building where research and practical work take place.
Faculty: Teachers and faculty are highly qualified, each with expertise in their own field, engaging in research and achieving great milestones. Teaching is very understandable, and if there are any doubts, TAs are available for extra help. The workshops make us industry-ready as engineers. Quizzes are conducted regularly. Semester exams are moderate to hard. If studied well, we can score good marks.
Other: I am interested in teaching and robotics. I wanted to explore semiconductor core areas, so I chose this college. Many events take place, such as Anwesha (cultural fest), Celesta (tech fest), and Infinito (sports fest). The college has all sports facilities except a swimming pool. Many clubs are available, Njack, Sparkonics, Aria, Tinkerers Lab, and many more, which we can join based on our interests. IIT Patna also conducted the Inter IIT Techmeet this year.

If you want to explore and have fun than its better to choose any old IITs.
Placements: Placement is pretty good almost all good companies come to college especially FAANG and over 90 percent got placed in CSE. The average package of my branch is about 24 LPA and last year, the highest package is about 80 LPA, while at the college, the highest package is about 1.3cr, which is given to a student of the AIDS branch.
Infrastructure: Labs are good but the instruments are old. Wi-Fi is available everywhere, including the hostel, academic building and lecture hall. The library is good and big but during exam time, it has a shortage of seats as all the students come and study overnight. There are not as many canteens and food stalls in comparison to old IITs that is a big problem and also Blinkit , Instamart, Zepto is not available only Jio smart is available but that not sufficient.
Faculty: All teachers are good, helpful, and knowledgeable. Course curriculum is also relevant and also makes the students industry ready. Semester exams are well managed, and arrangement is good. Exams are difficult depends on the professor, some professors give very hard paper and you have to grind very hard for that subject.

Sweepers come regularly to clean the dirty areas, and rooms are properly cleaned every weekend. The mess maintains good quality food.
Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified. Most of them did their PhD. from IITs or other reputed colleges in other countries. The first year curriculum is a slight mixture of all subjects and makes students industry ready in other ways. Semester exams are not difficult.

Absolutely satisfied (worth it).
Placements: Afaik, placements are pretty good in circuit branches like CSE, AIDS, MNC, etc. Many international offers were also made to many students, and many companies like Goldman Sachs, Maang, etc. Visit regularly. As for core branches, opportunities are fewer compared to CS and all. Many people get placed in PSUs, some get placed in teaching, and others go for higher studies like M.Tech, MBA, etc. The placement percentage in my course, afaik, is 90%. More or less, if you want placement, you will get it, and if not, then you can always go for higher studies.
Infrastructure: There are separate buildings/floors for different departments, and they have Wi-Fi in all, afaik. Labs are well-equipped and maintained properly. IIT Patna has a central library, which is very beautiful and the heart of the campus; it is a round-shaped building with many floors and Wi-Fi facility. Classrooms are well-furnished, and Wi-Fi is available. There are many hostels, but the hostel allotted to freshers is CV Raman. It is well-furnished, and Wi-Fi is available. Mess food is decent. There are Nescafes and a food court, along with a sports complex and gymkhana for sports.
Faculty: Teachers are very good and experienced. In our 1st semester, we have Physics, Maths, CS, and all. Tbh, the course of the first year is not that relevant to our branch because we get common classes in the first year. But from the second year, it would be pretty relevant. Exams are not that difficult if you study. Most of the students pass the exams. Overall, if you study well, you will pass easily.
Other: There are many fests like Anwesh (main fest), Infinito (sports fest), and Calesta (tech fest).
