Overall, it's an average college, not so good, not so bad.
Placements: Mostly the sales companies are coming to the college. It is not so good for placements. Teach companies are very few, and also the packages are very low, just 2-3 LPA. If you are looking for a good placement college, then it is not for you. You have to take placement from external sources.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure at Abodh College and hostels are good. AC is working fine, and fans are working well. There is no problem with electricity. Wi-Fi is working fine. The library is good. We have no problem studying there. The canteen is provided, it is also good. All types of food items are available there.
Faculty: Faculty members are very supportive towards students. They guide you and support you in your academics as well as in your projects and skills. The curriculum is also improved. Exams are also good, not very hard, made from the previous year's papers. Overall, it is good. The pass percentage is around 30%.
Other: Events are held rarely. The campus crowd is good. Scholarships are provided through the UP scholarship scheme. Various clubs are created to perform extracurricular activities.

Good placements and best campus facilities. Skill-focused college with supportive teachers.
Placements: My college has good placements. Mostly, students who have good skills get 100% placement, and even those who put in a little hard work are easily able to get placed. The highest package 1.5 crores and the lowest package is 5-6 LPA. Mostly, students are placed in non-teaching companies. The top recruiting companies are Amazon and Deloitte.
Infrastructure: My course department has good infrastructure. We have Wi-Fi labs, classrooms, and a library, and everything works fine. The hostel facilities are overall okay. The mess food is not bad, but the taste of the food is decent. All the basic medical facilities are available. And we have proper grounds for both outdoor and indoor games.
Faculty: Teachers were helpful and well qualified they explain all the topics clearly. My course curriculum is relevant; it makes students industry-ready. They support students whenever they need help. The difficulty level of semester exams was moderate to hard, but most of the students passed easily.
Other: I chose this course because I was interested in computers and wanted to build a career in the teaching field. I think some things can be improved, like updated lab equipment and more industry-level workshops; these changes can make the course even better. Many fest and events are conducted in our college, which make students life enjoyable. The campus crowd is friendly and supportive. Scholarships were also offered to students. There are many extracurricular activities like sports, cultural events, and teaching clubs where students can participate and improve their skills.

Average as compared for money and good enough for a better degree.
Placements: 5 to 10 percent of students get placement. According to the sources, the highest package is 32 LPA, the average is 5 LPA, and the lowest is 2 LPA. Infosys, Wipro etc. come to the college. 20 to 30 percent get internship in local company. Top roles are many. Other local companies also come to recruit freshers but gave low packages, that’s why they are not given in the ads of KCC. But a good percentage of students are placed in these local companies, and the students who have gained experiences and certificates etc., are placed in Wipro and Infosys.
Infrastructure: As compared to other, our college has good infra and facilities. ATM is placed. Classrooms are very cozy and attractive. AC, Wi-Fi etc. are placed. Quality of food given in cafe as well as mess is good enough. Medical facilities are also available and you can do daily sports activities in ground.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. Curriculum is relevant and many questions come in semester exam of put. Semester are easy to get pass and average to get good CGPA. Everybody can’t get good scores but a good mass of students are getting good marks due to this. Teachers are very patient and friendly, but other colleges’ professors are not so friendly as we had experienced this part in semester exam when centers occur in Gl Bajaj or GNIOT etc.
Other: This course is trend nowadays and gets good placement. That’s why I chose this.

It is also the best college for lighting our future in engineering.
Placements: In the Bansal Institute of Engineering and Technology, combining all branches, we can say approximately 50-60 percent of placements are provided, more like in IT and CS courses. The package offered ranges from 1-7 to 10 LPA. Companies like Infosys, Instagram, and some middle-level companies recruit students. In my course, 50 -60 percent of students get internships in many companies. Many roles are offered, like quality, design, and maintenance engineers.
Infrastructure: The Bansal Institute of Engineering and Technology hostels are very well maintained and governed by our college. I did not stay in a hostel, so I don't know very well about it, but my friends told me that there is no Wi-Fi. There is a good environment in the library, labs, and classrooms.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful for any doubts. They are well qualified. They have been teaching for a long time, so they are very proficient in what they are doing. Their teaching quality is excellent. There are some course curricula that can help students for the future. Exams are not that hard for good students, as teachers know what to teach to help students clear their exams as well as gain more marks. Almost 90 percent of students pass every time.
Other: I have an interest in engines, cars, and motor parts, so I chose this course.
