    Absolutely dissatisfied because of faculty, placements, and the knowledge gained.
    Placements: Placements were started during 2022. There were no top companies, and the packages were also low. A sum of money was collected from students if they rejected the company that they got selected. No internships were offered. My course comes with the tutoring program for communication skills.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not up to that level. Small building in minimal area. The strength of the students is also low. The hostel building is very old and lacks facilities. The library is quite large and has adequate facilities. Trainers for sports and games were allocated.
    Faculty: The exams were quite easy, and I can score good marks. But the faculty members were lacking sufficient knowledge. The curriculum is relevant to the course. The teaching quality is not up to that level. The pass percentage is 35-40. Students can get a pass if they put in some effort.
    Other: This course comes with a communication lab with multiple facilities. Faculty members should be updated and upgraded. There are no cultural events conducted. It should be made arrangements for the well-being of the students.
