Overall, the college stands good, and those who are interested in studying in the college can come.
Placements: The placement cell is not as good as expected but better than many other colleges at Delhi University. This year, the highest package is 38 Lacs per annum, and the lowest package is around 9 Lacs per annum. Placement is better for B.Com (Hons) students. Over 250+ companies were attracted to Motilal Nehru College and provided a lot of job opportunities.
Infrastructure: The facilities are friendly, and teaching is done in a very good way. The library is also good, and the Wi-Fi system was excellent inside it. The Physics and Chemistry labs were good. Classrooms are well-maintained. There is no hostel facility provided by our college. The food provided in the canteen is very good and affordable. The ground is good for playing cricket, football, volleyball, etc.
Faculty: Yes, the teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable as well. The teaching quality is very good. Most probably, it depends on you, how you give your time for the preparation of the semester exams. If you prepare in a significant way, then it is very easy. Political Science (Honours) is a good course for this generation and those who want to prepare for civil service.
Other: I think I got the best course, Political Science (Honours). If there are some practical visits to society for the students of Political Science (Honours), it would be good. There are a lot of fests and events that happen in our college.

Masti and padhai saath saath.
Placements: I'm a fresher and currently, I don't know about the placements of my college, but to my knowledge, it's good as the college offers good education and guidance. The professors are really helpful, and the faculty is also nice. Seniors are also there to guide you and help you take good decisions in the college.
Infrastructure: Our college has a massive ground for students to play and improve in sports. It also has a basketball court and NCC for future options. The food in our canteen is good and affordable for all the students living in PGs, and it is made hygienically. There are a lot of food options to choose from. A student can have anything they want as our canteen nearly has everything.
Faculty: Teachers are really helpful and are always available if you need any guidance. The department conducts seminars for fresher students on how to write college exams and score good. There is rarely any student failing; I haven't heard any student fail till now.
Other: I was really interested in B.A. Hons Political Science. Our department is very nice, everyone is there to support you and guide you best. The fests and events in our college are really exciting, and students do enjoy them.

An average package of fun .
Placements: I am in B.A. hons in political science, and we have a class composition of 55 students. Overall, this course is so really good. We get to study different ideologies and different types of people and their thinking. It's the very start of the course, so we haven't gone through it much, but if I see it overall, according to my seniors experience, it is really so vast and nice. For the package, it's nearly about 6,45,000, and we mostly get jobs like journalism and copywriting, etc.
Infrastructure: There are not many facilities available for our courses, which are B.A. hons. in political science. Like none of the rooms are totally dedicated to political science, but we have a problem right there that where our classes are being held in Jubilee Block. We are fully equipped with ACs.
Faculty: Teachers here are really qualified in many fields and hold knowledge of political science a lot. Most of the professors are very friendly and cooperative, along with playing the role of a parent in college, being strict about the things that are unacceptable by correcting us. The specific course doesn't have much to make us industry-ready but definitely makes us UPSC-ready. Else, other than this, we have GE, VAC, SEC, and AEC. We can opt for different subjects and topics to gain knowledge.
Other: I chose this course because I was already very interested in political science, which made me attracted towards this course, and it's going on well as we learn many new things on a daily basis. I wish that it could've consisted of some industry-ready skills with it, which would help us get jobs easily in this capitalist world. Else event fest and the campus are so wholesome. Everything is so sorted and done on time. There is no fest season. You can see fests being held every day or every other day except during exam times.

Review of Motilal Nehru College, University of Delhi.
Placements: So, my course has a good scope for placement. There are a few seniors with good skills who are now placed. I feel that more than subjective knowledge, skill matters and those who have good skills get placed really quickly. My course is good.
Infrastructure: The faculty is really good and helpful, as they keep sending links for internships and courses. They suggest books and study materials during exams. The infrastructure is really good, with a big playground and lots of trees on campus.
Faculty: As I said, the teachers are really helpful and always help us with extra things other than studies like courses, internships, etc. They have good knowledge and clear all our doubts immediately. It doesn't make us ready for the industry but the whole amount of knowledge is something that the course gives us.
Other: No.

It is a good college in terms of campus life and studies.
Placements: There were no placements in this course. We had to study and apply for government exams for jobs. Our college offered degrees to students.
Infrastructure: The facilities of our college were good. The infrastructure was better. Wi-Fi was enabled. I was a day scholar so I did not know about hostel facilities. One of my friends told me that the food served in the mess was not good.
Faculty: Teachers were helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality was good. Teachers also helped us in all aspects. Semester exams were moderate and most questions came from previous years' papers.
Other: Our campus life is good.
