Best infrastructure and an amazing crowd.
Placements: In my course, around 45 students were recruited. There is no such package offered for my course because it is a theoretical subject. Most of the students are offered internships from esteemed organizations. Most of the students belonging to the scores are preparing for the civil services exams and other government exams. Every year from every batch around 4-5 students are getting selected for these exams and some of the students are also studying outside India.
Infrastructure: The college has a very beautiful campus and infrastructure, but not all the classrooms are very well-ventilated and spacious. The library has three floors and most of the books are available to the students in the summer season. AC facilities are available 24/7. The hostel is not provided by your college but the canteen also has decent. Medical facilities and sports have a very good scope in our college even the football team of this college has recognition in DU.
Faculty: Teachers are very well qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is quite good. The curriculum of the course is very relevant but it does not make students industry-ready. It makes students eligible for competitive exams which are conducted by the UPSC and other governments. Semester exams are quite difficult but the pass percentage is good.
Other: I chose this course because I feel my side is strong in history. I think the availability of study materials should be improved. Events, fests, campus, and connectivity everything is very good every time some are the other curriculum activities are going on on the campus.

The college have all the facilities .
Placements: Placements are good in the college because the college comes under the Delhi university so the graduation Certificate or degree holds very strong position so the students get Placements. And they are well settled. Companies that come are also very good.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is good. All the facilities are provided within the college premises. The classrooms are well maintained. The labs are well equipped. All the facilities like games, sports, canteen/mess, medical facilities are provided.
Faculty: The faculty members are very supportive and knowledgeable. The professors are also very supportive and knowledgeable they provide all the study materials and guide through our courses. There are end sem exams that are held in the college according to the course.

Qualified faculty, great infrastructure and the best fests.
Placements: Only students who are pursuing skilled degrees like B.Com or economics honours have more chances to get placed. Students pursuing the arts have to search for internships by themselves, as on campus placements are not in compliance with their disciplines.
Infrastructure: The college does not provide any hostel facilities, but the students can find places to live in Satyaniketan, a 10-minute walk from campus. The campus boasts a huge field and a fully equipped sports room, along with a 3-story library with a digital library. There are 2 fully equipped computer labs and 3 smaller halls, along with one auditorium. Classrooms are equipped with projector facilities to aid teaching. The canteen boasts a variety of foods ranging from south Indian to thalis to fast foods, which are all freshly prepared by the Reji family.
Faculty: Most of the teachers are Ph.D. holders. If not, many of them are Ph.D. scholars or fully qualified in the subject they are teaching. The course curriculum is undergoing a change due to the implementation of the new education policy, and it has become a bit difficult for students to cope with the changes, but the teachers are fully supportive of the students. The semester exams are completely in sync with the curriculum taught, with the pass percentage being 33%. .
Other: I chose history honours as I always had a love for history. At JMC, we had the best, most passionate professors who taught us how to dig deep into the discipline while maintaining our own opinion. The college societies and departments host separate academic and cultural fests from time to time. Adaa, the annual fest of the Indian dance society, and Octet, the annual fest of the north-east society, are the ones to look out for as they are the most fun fests. Along with that, we have the annual cultural festival of the college, named Montage.

Review of Jesus and Mary College ,University of Delhi.
Placements: Placements offered are of diverse sectors, so discipline-based placements are less. The placements at JMC cater to the rapidly changing requirements of the corporate sector and facilitate productive interaction between students' skill sets and employability.
Infrastructure: JMC contains a well-equipped library with all types of genres. The library is equipped with facilities like Wi-Fi and individual desktops for reference and research. JMC doesn't have hostel accommodation and mess. However, JMC has one of the best canteens in University of Delhi.
Faculty: The department of history of Jesus and Mary College has excellent and well-experienced faculty members. All departments have professors with high educational proficiency and calibre. The course structure of the history syllabus keeps on changing every now and then, but the syllabus remains rigid in its technicality. Semester exams remain very proper and time constant with a very high pass percentage.

This college is attractive and is worth your time.
Placements: I don't know about the placements much. But I saw various multinational and even domestic companies like Oberoi hotel and Grand Thornton offering internships to the students of 2nd and the first year. If students have any doubts regarding the placements, then they can check the website of JMC.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of Jesus and Mary College is one of the best. The college has various spots for students to hangout and pent up the exam pressure. L Park and the main grounds are the most liked spots here during the winters. The amphitheatre is a hub for all the activities.
Faculty: The history faculty members are well known as they are well informed about the topic and show their interest in history, which helps the students to gain a huge perspective and culminate their interest. Faculty members have a society named Dastaan, which focuses on awareness of heritage by conducting walks and talks throughout the academic year. Hence it compliments the faculty members.
Other: Montage and Diwali Mela are known fests of Jesus and Mary College.
