    A pretty good college in terms of every aspect.
    Placements: 60 to 90 percent of students are placed in my course, but so far we have not received any offer as its our first year. Pharmacy companies, not yet any internship but they will provide. In my course there are many posts/jobs you can do with high salaries like 50 to 80k or even more even when you are a fresher.
    Infrastructure: 10/10 in every aspect best in the up for sure. In terms of infrastructure the course is good in every aspect. They do everyday activities like quizzes and viva the environment in the class will make you study to answer in class and get some aura in front of everyone.
    Faculty: Teachers here are so good the way they explain is so good man. They made it easy to understand everything. The environment they make while studying makes you study to give answers in the next class to get aura in front of everyone. They are very helpful.

    It is an average private college. Those who want to study B.Tech or B. Pharm can go to this college.
    Placements: The D Pharm batch, passing in 2024, had 50-60 percent of students placed. The highest package was 1.8 LPA. Top companies such as Apollo and Johnson. MR and retail pharmacy jobs were the top roles offered. Every year companies visited the campus, some gave offer letters on the spot, while others conducted a second interview at their place.
    Infrastructure: The food and hostel quality were below average. There was no medical facility. There were only a few sports to play. The infrastructure was poor, with no Wi-Fi, no AC and labs with only a few equipment. There were no smart boards or computers. Classrooms and washrooms were damaged, with no water. There was a playground and open badminton court.
    Faculty: Teachers were helpful and qualified, but not as knowledgeable. The teaching quality was average. The course was not relevant and industry-ready. The difficulty level of the course was medium, with a passing percentage of 70 percent. My course had a yearly exam system not a semester-wide system. It came under the BTEUP board.
    Other: Proper labs should be maintained, and fest should be held like DU.

    Other: Every staff was friendly with us and juniors, and seniors.

    All the facilities are excellent and good helping friends.
    Placements: Around 70-80 percent of the students got internships and placements. The highest package offered is around 70 Lacs per annum while the minimum package is around 25 Lacs. One of the top recruitment companies is Cipla.
    Infrastructure: The campus facilities are all well-equipped and in good condition. There are also hotels here that have the proper facilities and security measures for our safety. It’s safe to say they’ve done a good job of looking after the students here, with strict timings for everything so we can relax and focus on our studies.
    Faculty: The teachers are very helpful and supportive. They are always willing to answer questions, provide feedback, and guide students. There are regular visits to the school’s new trip. These trips provide valuable, real-world experience for students looking to work in the medical field. The curriculum is relevant for all students who want to explore a career in medicine. Exams are moderately difficult but it is manageable, especially if you come to class, pay attention, and study. The minimum passing mark or percentage is around 60 percent in the finals.
    Other: This is a professional course that we have to do. All the students who passed the course have received their licenses to start their own business. I love the fact that we’ve been provided with the knowledge and the opportunity to explore a broad range of aspects of life that can make it a better place. The best thing about this course is its short duration.
