Q: How is mess food at Government College of Engineering?

Nearly the worst. ! College mess food is bad. But you can join private mess outside of college campus. But SEE living on Mess Foods is very difficult. This is my personal experience. Each and every mess is in range of Rs.1800/- to Rs.2500/-. Quality changes as price changes. But any mess can not provide you food like your home. So, be ready for this. Happy To Help. !

Paper Marks pattern is like 15+15+10+60. ISE (Inter sem exam) or also called as Class Test (CT) which are of 15 Marks for nearly all subjects and which held twice in one sem, Teacher's Assessment of 10 Marks and End sem exam of 60 Marks. Total of 100 Marks for 1 subject. If you miss 15 marks exams then for genuine reasons you can give Re-CT exams, which held nearly 5,10 days after CT exam and then about TA 10 marks, it is given on the basis of your assignments and attendance which are of 75% compulsory. And if you miss the End sem exam then you will get D grade and you have to give Re-End sem exam which held nearly after 1 to 1 and half months after end sem exam. And if you fails to give re exam or if you unable to cover passing marks of 40 out of 100 in sum of all exams then consider your subject is back. You have to give the paper after 1 year with junior batch.
