Absolutely satisfied with everything they provided, including good placements and opportunities.
Placements: All students were above average in honesty. Professors helped and guided every student in every situation. The entire batch got internships at Jadavpur University. The top roles offered were in debate competitions, poster making, and essay writing.
Infrastructure: We had very comfortable classrooms with enough space to seat more than 40 students. In my batch, we were 35 students, even after everyone sat comfortably. There was plenty of space left to sit 20 more. We also had a great library with a variety of books, which personally helped me a lot.
Faculty: Teachers were very helpful. The notes they provided and their teaching methods made it easy for every student to understand and take notes at that moment. The teaching quality was great. The semester exams were not too tough. If you prepared for them, but if you didn’t, they could be a little difficult.
Other: The college was overall great. But it would have been great. If the cafeteria had been more affordable, as the food was very costly with limited options. Other than that, the college was great with all the events and fests.
