JMC is unarguably the best women's college of DU.

Placements: Overall placements of our college are amazing, but for our batch, it's let's say around 40-50 percent. Companies that need content writers or the ones where English speaking or drafting is a necessity are the ones which hire students of our course. Top roles offered to students of our course are HR for sure.

Infrastructure: Our college is best due to its location, as neither South Campus nor North Campus; we are located in Chanakyapuri. Our canteen is big, and our event hall, which is the Thevenet Hall, is not just a monument but a building where we have made ample memories in 2 years of our college life.

Faculty: Our faculty members are all Doctorates and are someone who have ample researches under their belt. They therefore push us for the same, as our final year will be based on research work, and where most students quit after three years, they want us to continue for the fourth year and get an Hons Degree.

Other: Ours is a girls college, but we have many engaging activities in our college. Our annual fest Montage sees participants from almost 100 colleges.

Life in JMC - you'll love it.

Placements: The placements in JMC are around 7 LPA, which is pretty decent for undergraduate level. It differs across different courses like B.Com (Hons) and Eco Hons, which have the highest packages every year. Courses like History Honours and Geography Honours don't offer high placement.

Infrastructure: Hostel is not present in JMC. The infrastructure is the best of that in Delhi University. It is clean and full of greenery. Wi-Fi is not available. Classrooms are big. The Venus Hall is very big and famous in DU. Library is also huge with many books of all types.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, kind, and well qualified. Especially my course, English Honours, teachers are fabulous and help each student very well. They take regular tests and assignments which are of moderate level. The curriculum is also good but can be changed slightly with more modern books and authors.

Other: There are many events of all societies. The societies are highly active and have regular fests. There is scholarship also for selected students. Crowd is very good.

Driving into the world of JMC.

Placements: 83% of students were placed successfully. The highest package being a literature major which was around 25-30,000. The average CTC was around 15-18000 and the lowest was Rs 10-15k. Around 72% of the students got internships. Many were taken as fellow bloggers, editors, etc.

Infrastructure: The college embodies a huge L Park, an amphitheater, a huge Multipurpose hall as well as two gyms that is one open gym area and another gym within the premises of the building. The canteen is huge along with another accompanying food caravan, one football ground and a basketball court.

Faculty: The faculty is extremely understanding and approachable. The English department is extremely helpful, inclusive, and accommodating. They provide assignments and notes, take CAs on time, and provide sufficient time to complete projects or assignments assigned.

Other: The course close is due to two reasons. Literature major students have a variety of courses to resort to from Law, Mass Communication, and Editing to foreign relations. The course material is informative, the faculty of English honours in JMC is one of the best and with the English department fest Literati, Diwali fest SPARSH it becomes all the more appealing.

An underrated DU college!

Placements: There is an active placement cell in the college, which provides great exposure to students of various degrees and courses. However, most of the literature students prefer to go for higher studies, and anyway, their options for placements are very limited when compared to commerce students.

Infrastructure: The campus of Jesus and Mary College is very underrated; the lush green surroundings and well-maintained buildings make it a much more aesthetic campus than a lot of DU colleges. There is a big field for sports activities, basketball courts, an audiovisual room, and mostly clean washrooms. However, the college lacks a hostel for the outstation students.

Faculty: The English department faculty is one of the best in the college, and most of the professors are extremely helpful and experienced. The NEP has changed a lot of things for the students as well as staff, but everyone is learning to come to terms with the new policy.

The entire campus is connected with Wi-Fi. The amphitheatre is used for cultural activities like music, theatre in particular street plays, talks, poetry reading sessions, arts and photography competitions. The college has an aesthetically designed and air-conditioned auditorium with a seating capacity of around 600. The college takes pride in being a differently-able friendly campus with ramps, lifts and special washrooms added to the building.

Faculty: The teachers are experienced and highly qualified. They don't teach what's in the textbook but guide their students to think beyond. The curriculum has been revised and is relevant to the present times. The students don't just earn a degree but become thinking members of society. Semester exams are not that difficult if one studies well, and the evaluation system is strict.

Other: The college has 5 compulsory societies, each helping in the betterment of society. Every student is required to be one of these five societies. There are several cultural societies. It is advised to be a part of them as they help in the overall development of students.

Q: Are NCERT books enough to cover CUET syllabus?

NTA has mentioned that CUET UG 2026 syllabus will adhere to NCERT syllabus. Hence, it can be assumed that the NCERT books are enough to cover the syllabus of the CUET UG exam. Candidates must note that, CUET exam tests students' understanding of the subject concepts and ability to apply them in various situations.

Therefore, to prepare well and get a good score, it is advised that students refer to other study materials and books designed for national-level competitive entrance exams. The CUET UG syllabus is similar with the Class 12 Board exam syllabus. The chapters and topics are similar to Class 12 syllabus. Unlike other UG entrance exams, CUET UG syllabus does not include Class 11 syllabus.
