Satisfied with my college.
Placements: Top roles offered in my course are senior president, junior president, medical officer, house staff/House surgeon, postgraduate president, teaching career, research associate/clinical researcher. Students get internships in our own college after completing 4.5 years.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is not better but good. The college needs to make the infrastructure better like, hostels should be clean. In lab , some instruments are not available. They need to provide more microscopes for the experiments. Canteen facilities are available on campus. Sports and games are also organised, but there is no such place in our college to play games.
Faculty: Faculty members are good and very helpful. They are always ready to help students. They are well-qualified and knowledgeable. Their teaching methods are good. The semester exams are not so tough. It is totally based on the syllabus. Those who have studied can pass the exam.
Other: Every year our college organises a fest for us. Events are also organised.

I am satisfied with the faculty members, infrastructure, and facilities.
Placements: The lowest salary is Rs. 40,000 and the highest is Rs. 60,000. This one is a medical college not a company. Most students got their internship in the same college where they completed their course. Doctors are always offered top roles. They are real heroes who save the lives of humans and animals.
Infrastructure: Labs are providing a good facility. Instruments are available. In the classroom there is smart board or a projector-based system and AC is also provided. The library is there in the college premises in good condition. There is AC available and silence is always maintained. Books are also available. Students can borrow the book for study.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and their teaching quality is good. It makes the students ready. The semester is a little bit tough. Sometimes students get nervous during their practical exam and it is very common. The semester is totally based on the syllabus. The passing percentage is overall good.
Other: I chose the path of medicine to turn my father's dreams into reality.

The college has good academics.
Placements: It's a government college and it's a hospital so all the students will take an internship and that will be approximately Rs. 42,000 And we are doctors. After passing this college you make good doctors. The package is too high 16 LPA -18 LPA or higher than this.
Infrastructure: The library is very good. Labs and classrooms all have air-conditioners. Its ground is too short. The cultural events and sports are too much than any medical college. Books are also available in a library from your medical books to ethical books. Enjoy every day, too good for MBBS.
Faculty: The academic studies are too much. Semester examinations are of moderate difficulty. They are not too hard and not too easy. The frequency of examination is approximately 1 - 2 weeks. Overall, it is the best college.
Other: They should improve grounds and water purifiers. They conduct fests. A scholarship facility is available in our college. Overall, it is a great college, and the DJ nights during events like the freshers' party or convocation are very enjoyable.

A great medical college for studying medicine.
Placements: As a medical college, there is no hiring for placements. It only provides you with the degree of an MBBS graduate and a well-qualified doctor. It gives you great exposure to patients and other doctors, which helps you become a great doctor. That's all about it.
Infrastructure: Good, but it needs to be improved/upgraded. Some areas are broken and need to be repaired and replaced. New technologies are needed for better services to patients and students. The hostels need to be cleaned and renovated, and the capacity of the hostels needs to be expanded.
Faculty: Some faculty members are great, while some are above average. Overall, the faculty is good. Some faculty members are really supportive of students. They are always available to help with any kind of issue. They really appreciate and arrange the necessary facilities for students.
Other: Good campus and good patient loads.

Overall, the college is good.
Placements: Since it is a medical college we don't exactly get placements but a student passing from RGKMCH will have no trouble getting patients if he decides to set up his own chamber. The percentage of students qualifying for NEET PG from our college is very good too.
Infrastructure: Labs and classrooms are decent. Everything we need is provided here. Wi-Fi is available throughout the campus, and the data limit is only 25 MB per day. Hostels are a whole different story. Hygiene is really poor and maintenance is not good either. The first-year hostel is still decent. 2nd-year hostel and the main boy's hostel hygiene are not good.
Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified, but they do not put a lot of effort into teaching. For doubt solving, they will clear any doubts we may have. They all are highly knowledgeable. The course curriculum is very relevant. Exams difficulty level is good. It makes us ready for the medical field.
Other: Fest organised is amazing here. Big Bollywood artists perform at our college and events are great.

Dream medical college for thousands of students.
Placements: In MBBS, 100% of students who pass the exam get some or the other job. Bonding with seniors is very nice in our college. Juniors are treated like brothers, sisters, and seniors help us very much. Placements are offered in West Bengal.
Infrastructure: Library is very good, Wi-Fi doesn't work, and AC is okay. Labs are good as my college is more than 100 years old. Classrooms are good but not very good. Chairs are broken. Projectors and sound systems are not that good. Rest everything is okay and quite better than many other colleges.
Faculty: Faculty members are very good. We have 9 semesters and 4 professional examinations along with lots of PCTs, items, etc. Many class tests are conducted. Exams are MBBS level.
