    The faculty teaching system is good and understanding.
    Placements: The college offers a good number of placement opportunities for postgraduate and undergraduate students. Students become eligible for their placements from the fifth semester (undergraduate) and the third semester (postgraduate). The average package is around 6 LPA per annum, and the highest package received was 10 LPA. Companies that visit for placements are Cipla, Microsoft, Unacademy, and many more.
    Infrastructure: The hostel is very well-maintained. The hostel room is fully furnished and properly ventilated. The wardens are very friendly. The hostel's mess food quality is very good and is cooked in a clean environment. The college staff is well-trained, and hostel discipline is very well maintained. The hostel has a common room with an LCD TV. The hostel also provides 24-hour water and power supply.
    Faculty: The curriculum is designed in such a way that it helps students to understand all the basic concepts along with higher-level information. The syllabus includes the topics that are important for competitive exams such as CSIR NET JRF, GATE, etc. Along with theoretical knowledge, emphasis is also given to real-world practical application through projects, dissertations, internships, etc. The exams are conducted frequently, which helps to keep our brains active. The exams are not very difficult, but they are good enough to make us think practically and critically.

    Climate of Ravangla, Sikkim, is very pleasant.
    Placements: Every year, the placement cell provides various job opportunities to students by welcoming various companies and industries for the recruitment of deserving students. The average annual package ranges from 2.5-4 Lacs per year. However, in case you don't wanna get into the job you can pursue higher studies in the foreign countries as well.
    Infrastructure: As NIT Sikkim is still operating from a temporary campus, hostel facilities are not as per the other NITs. Students are forced to live in 5-bedded sharing rooms, where 5 tables, 5 chairs, 5 almirahs, and 5 beds are provided for each student, but it becomes very tough to follow the individual routine. Mess food quality is poor, and the only reason institute states is that Ravangala is a very remote location.
    Faculty: For me, it seems okay. But the question that comes in exams is mostly moderate to difficult. Teaching methods sometimes need to change because they need to understand that all students are not same and to bring them on one page, they need to change their teaching style. The whole semester contains only exam, exam, and exam.

    Improvements are needed.
    Placements: 100% students get internship in IIT Kanpur, IIT Bombay and Indian Institute of Chemical, etc. 5 students are doing jobs at Syngene, Byjus and Sunpharma, and the rest are preparing for PhDs. 30k per month was the average salary.
    Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available in the whole campus. Labs are bad in terms of instruments and infrastructure, however it is expected as it is a place in the high mountains of South Sikkim. Hostel in the campus is good and its food is average. Medical facilities are good.
    Faculty: Semester exams are not too difficult, however during the pandemic, it was difficult to study via online mode. 100% is the pass percentage. The internships have helped us to gain practical knowledge for working in the industry. The course curriculum is standard NET and GATE based, however some parts are somewhat irrelevant.
