Please don't consider this.
Placements: If you’re coming to this college, then please don’t expect placement. Its the least possible thing college is concerned about. Almost every student here is either for Masters or has a family business, here for just a degree. Barely any student gets placed.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are just natural saunas. Just walk 5 minutes you’ll complete the campus tour. The labs and library are decent. Sports facilities are barely accessible. Never saw a medical facility here, so don’t know. Hostels are really small but decent. Don’t get food from that canteen.
Faculty: The teachers are graduates from Punjab University only. Some are good, some are not. Subjects are good, but the way they are taught is pretty outdated. Even in the exams, they expect you to write a minimum of 7-8 pages for each answer just to take a decent grade.
Other: No extracurricular activities. The worst crowd (fight happening all the time).

Faculty: Teachers are very good, with very helpful coordinating staff. The course is relevant as per the top market. Semester exams are very difficult. Teachers have subject knowledge, and they teach very well. They also assist in projects and help the students. They give balanced marks.
Other: The course is provided on the basis of rank, and I only got this according to my rank. A lot of events happen in a year, including a yearly annual fest named Goonj.

My college feels average to me.
Placements: I am studying B.Sc. Chemistry. There are 24 students in the department. It is a government college, so most students receive financial support through scholarships. Company placements are not discussed. IMAT is the final stage of the course, so internships are conducted during this period. The top roles offered include food safety department roles, forensic science, chemist positions, etc.
Infrastructure: As I am studying B.Sc. Chemistry, we need labs, which are only about 50% okay, with limited equipment. Wi-Fi is available only on the ground floor. The classrooms are spacious, but the library is poor, as it is usually closed even though it is a single room. Food availability is good. Currently, there is no hostel facility, and medical facilities are poor. Sports and games are also not very engaged in our college.
Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable. As I reach the final year, it is a good quality education. The course curriculum is relevant. The semester exam is not too difficult. 90% pass is going on, but from the other department, they are having low percentage passes.
Other: I chose it because I love the subject, because I love to be in labs, and do all the stuff about Chemistry. I think the base that I lost during the corona period, I need to improve my education during those times. Several events are held, but the campus surroundings are poor.

It has excellent campus infrastructure, but poor placements.
Placements: The placement scenario for our batch has been quite underwhelming. Regarding internships, the college assistance is minimal and most students have to find internships on their own without much guidance from the placement cell. The packages offered are generally on the lowest side.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is undoubtedly the strongest aspect of the college. There is a well stocked library with Wi-Fi. The reading room is great for self-study. The canteen food is quite decent but not so good. Students also get medical and sports facilities to use.
Faculty: Teachers are qualified and helpful. They often go out of their way to assist students with their doubts. The course curriculum is average enough to make students career ready, but it can definitely be improved with more modern industry relevant projects.
