Dissatisfied because of faculty, no placements are there, infrastructure and facilities are moderate
Placements: Hello Everyone, my college placement condition is very poor. As a student of Botany (Hons.), we don't get any opportunities for internships either. I felt really very bad when I got to know this. This is a sad reality of our college that students don't get placed here. So, students either go for an M.Sc. at university or start preparing for jobs.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of our classrooms and hostels is not so good. There's no Wi-Fi, and the labs are moderate. Not all the requirements of the lab are fulfilled. Library is decent, but we don't get all the books that we need. Study rooms are good with proper Wi-Fi connection. Hostels are moderate. Hostel food is good sometimes, and sometimes bad.
Faculty: Teachers are quite good, knowledgeable, and qualified. Some of them had done a Ph.D., and some of them had done M.Sc. Teaching quality is also good. They explain everything in detail. Yes, this course curriculum is relevant, but it doesn't make students industry-ready. We don't get so much practical knowledge. Semester exams are difficult in our college. Sometimes it's very hard to pass the exams. The pass percentage in our college is 30%.
Other: I chose this course because I love to study plants, their way of surviving, their habitat, and everything. The best thing about my course is that I get to know each and every detail of plants. More practical knowledge is the only thing, I want to say to better/improve in my course. Events and fests are too good. We have freshers, social, farewell, etc. The campus crowd is good, and connectivity is also good. Campus surroundings are also good. It has bookstores, cafes, restaurants, etc. Many scholarships are present like Vivekananda, Oasis, etc. Extracurricular activities are not so much in the college.

Siliguri College - My second home.
Placements: I have given a 1-star rating as Siliguri College does not provide any placements as of now. After completing my course, I have thought of completing a master's. I have seen a lot of students who did a B.Sc and opted for a M.Sc here. Later, it is not necessary to complete 4 years. If one likes to leave the college in between, they can do it. They'll get a certificate. If I want to leave after 2 years, I can leave after doing an internship. I will get a certificate also.
Infrastructure: In our botany department, we have good, spacious, and airy classrooms. We have a projector room where slides are shown and taught. We have microscopes, various specimens, and other things needed while doing practicals. We also have our laboratory with chemicals for chemical relations. Our college has a separate boys' hostel and a girls' hostel. I do not live in the hostel but some of my friends do. They have said that the hostel is fine. The food is average. In the hostel, I do not think there are facilities for games.
Faculty: Our department, teachers are very helpful. They always make sure that we understand the topic properly. Our syllabus was completed before exams. They take online classes if the syllabus is pending. Our department teachers are highly qualified. We get important questions for exams. They teach students how to write proper answers to score marks. The teaching quality is very good. Our course mostly teaches students about plants that we eat and how to take care of them. It gives us a lot of knowledge about what to eat. It provides how to cure if there's a disease and how to grow a plant. It also adds to aesthetic features. Semester exams are moderate but hard for me. One thing that I've understood is to write. If you don't write you'll fail. Write whatever you know about the topic given in question. There is no such thing as a pass percentage in college. If you fail in some subjects then you have to attempt the exam again. For example, in the 1st semester, if you fail 2 subjects, then in the 3rd semester, you have to write an exam for those subjects with 3rd semester subjects exam. Again if you fail in the 2nd semester, you have to attempt those subjects exams in the 4th semester with 4th semester syllabus exams. In simple words, it's called back paper.
Other: I am a science student, but I am very scared of physics and chemistry, so I opted for botany at this college. I like this subject. It teaches me a lot every day about food, lifestyle, and what to eat or not. It provides medicinal value. These things are very important in today's lifestyle of chaos and hurry. I think our course is great and I'm looking forward to being keenly interested in the subject. We have events and fests in the college. Two of which are Freshers and Social. These are big ones. They are very amazing and enjoyable. Good and well-known artists are invited to perform in our college. It is very refreshing and rejuvenating. After loads of study, these things are needed. The campus surroundings are good. We have a field where games are played like cricket, football, volleyball, etc. Campus life is good. The crowd is not much. It is fine and, breathable. Our college offers various scholarships to students. Vivekananda Scholarship is one of them. In this scholarship, students should pay Rs. 18,000 every year after fulfilling some requirements like a certain percentage and no back paper. Other scholarships include Kanyashree for girls which gives Rs. 25,000 and Oasis Scholarship for both girls and boys which gives Rs. 5,000.

Average performing college.
Placements: The college provides different programs for career empowerment. There are no specific placements offered by the college but if you are interested they provide internships. Role of my course is to provide deep knowledge on the subject.
Infrastructure: The college does not provide Wi-Fi connection. Boys' hostel is terrible and same for the food management. Lab is satisfactory and I like to do practicals. College provides smart classrooms. Facilities of library are very rude and all necessary books are available.
Faculty: Teachers are supportive and help us a lot regarding our doubts. Professor helps a lot in encouraging students. Course curriculum is quite relaxing and has little pressure on us to hard work. Examinations are strict and are organized very nicely. As the examination is tough the passing percentage is high, so we have to work hard.
Other: Course itself is very interesting and the professor makes it more interesting. College organizes big freshers union party for newly admitted students and sports day for enthusiastic students.
