My honest review of my college.

Placements: Placements were not good at that time, only 5% got placed. Companies like L&T, Infosys, and Wipro came to campus. The offer was just 15-20k per month. Placements were available for both UG and PG. The placement process for UG started in the 3rd year, after 5 semesters, through a training program. After completing the training program, the placements will begin. PG is in its final year, and placements are ongoing.

Infrastructure: There were different types of hostels. Facilities for improvement in those hostels, including a single cot, bathrooms, and cupboards, are a must. There were common bathrooms there. A comfortable hostel with all facilities available, providing separate accommodation for boys and girls. An exclusive hostel is available for international students. The hostel has an exclusive library for inmates, and internet facilities are available. The food dining hall and kitchen offer a home-food type experience. The college focuses on the continual development of infrastructural facilities.

Faculty: Since the course was just introduced that year, its syllabus resembled a B.Com CA course. I heard that it has been revised after 2 years. I like this course because it is very useful for my future career. The course was very innovative, and critical thinking ability is a must for generating new ideas. The course addressed drug development and the process of designing drug development. The faculty should interact with students to guide them effectively. The relationship for communication is excellent. My department faculty members were good, and they were very knowledgeable people.

Iconic and prestigious PSGCAS.

Placements: 90% of students have a lowest package of 3 Lacs per annum. Companies like Accenture, Incepbio, and others come for placements. 100% of students got internships in medical coding, pharmaceuticals, and research. Many companies visit our campus, including Face Prep, Accenture, Incepbio, GEP, Aravind Fashion, Deloitte, and Ceasefire.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available in the college, and all classrooms have projectors. Teachers teach using PPTs. The college library has over 10 Lacs worth of books. The hostel facilities are marvelous, and the food is good, with non-veg served three times a week and eggs four times a week.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified and knowledgeable, with many holding PhDs. The semester exams are a little easier, and the pass mark is 75 out of 40. The semester exams are conducted twice, like CA1 and CA2. While the marks can be difficult, we gain a lot of knowledge.

Other: I aspire to join a pharmaceutical company or work in medical coding; I want to become a researcher. I chose this course because the pandemic situation stimulated my career choice.
