Average College with Exceptional Faculty
Placements: The placements provided by the college are below average. While students from the B.A. program do get placements, it's rare to find a good one. High packages are offered by some companies, but it is extremely rare for someone to secure these opportunities. It would be safer to consider other colleges if you don't have additional skills beyond your degree and are seeking better placement options.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is decent for a college in Shahdara but could be improved. For sports, there is a volleyball court and a ground for football, cricket, etc. Hostel facilities are not provided by the college, so students need to make their own arrangements.
Faculty: The teachers are well-qualified and helpful, providing quality education. The semester exams are of moderate difficulty, and with regular preparation, one can secure a good CGPA (passing percentage is 44%, and one must pass in 9 out of 14 subjects to be promoted to the next year). However, the college is lacking in providing practical knowledge that would make students industry-ready.
Other: Various fests and events are organized, offering plenty of opportunities for students to participate in extracurricular activities.

Shyam lal college through a student's eyes.
Placements: 100 to 120 students get placed in my course. The package offered is INR 20,000 per year. There are jobs offered, such as content creation, and there is a regular campaign and placement fair in which students can come with their resumes and get recruited for the various companies.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is quite magnificent, and the area is open. There is a canteen that provides good-quality and cost-efficient food. There is a medical room where doctors are present all the time. There are three playgrounds where you can play volleyball, cricket, and hockey.
Faculty: Teachers are well versed in their own fields of knowledge, and they teach in a very understanding manner. Teachers are very friendly and clear all the doubts. Curriculum is an important aspect that is related to real life. There are semester-based exams that are very easy to pass.
Other: I chose a B.A. program with English and economics because I wanted to learn about both subjects. I hope there will be more fests at the college and more extracurricular activities.
