The course, the college, the experience hence, is worth going through the stringency that on.
Placements: The Placement Cell is quite active and promising. Students pursuing a course in Arts don't usually indulge in it as much as Commerce students do. Yet, one can always look up for useful internships at the Placement website which is updated regularly and sign up.
Infrastructure: The ambience maintained in the hostel is conducive for studying. You can however always tell that there is a very high regard for rules both in the campus and the hostel. It is a very competitive avenues, to which there are many cons but even more pros. If you can manage stress well, you'll find yourself bettering consistently.
Faculty: Most lectures are amazing. One wouldn't want to miss classes because attending them sincerely would provide you sufficient insight and you wouldn't really need tuitions. Regular courses however wouldn't help you with employability skills, that is something one has to work up separately.
Other: One needs to choose friends judiciously, the circle you are a part of will leave impact on how you perform academically.
