Exposure-wise, this college is the best.
Placements: Your placement depends entirely on your capability to clear exams like NORCET for government positions. For private placements with the name of this college, you can expect to earn around 15-20k. The college mainly provides a good name for your degree.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is the best, as it's the largest and most reputed college after AIIMS Delhi in the entire city. The college hospital and its buildings are spread over a huge area offering ample exposure. Also, the college is located in Asari Nagar West, which is in South Delhi.
Faculty: The teachers are nice and humble, and they cooperate well and consider reasonable grievances. Overall, the faculty is average. However, a few teachers may behave rudely, but since they are few, it's manageable.
Other: This college doesn't have a bond, so if you want to attempt NEET again, you can opt for this as a backup.
