    Overall good and value for money.
    Placements: The college placement cell worked robustly to bring companies. The placement process was usually smooth. Average package ranged from 2-7 LPA, and roles offered were usually sales-based. Placements were not very common, most of the students were interested in government exams.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college was a bit old school, but it was built a long time ago. The library had good resources. The hostel was okayish, food was mid to below average. Washrooms were a bit lacking, and hygiene was not very common. The canteen was okayish, and the price for food was not very much.
    Faculty: Teachers were cooperative in teaching and guiding. Very well qualified for the post. Curriculum was theoretical as well as practical. Semester exams were a bit hard, with a pass percentage being 40%. Exams were affiliated with LU, so it's not really difficult.
    Other: It's an all-girls college. However, I do think the college can improve its infrastructure. Events were subpar, fests don't really happen. The campus crowd was good and friendly.

    Absolutely dissatisfied with the infrastructure, library, faculty, and many more things.
    Placements: There's no such scope in this course, placement rate is zero. If you are expecting placement, better not pursue this course. Students here do not know anything about internships and all, so you can guess what to expect from this college. Hence, no top recruiting company will offer you a job on campus.
    Infrastructure: There's no Wi-Fi facility. Classrooms have poor infrastructure, and the library is closed most of the time. The labs have moderate technology, nothing new about the labs. The canteen is okay. There's a nurse room which is adjoined by a school also, and the canteen is also the same.
    Faculty: The teachers are overrated. If you are from English Medium, then consider studying on your own. The exams are conducted semester wise (NEP). Exams are held every 6 months, and it's quite easy if you do the past year papers. Analyze the previous year questions as they are repetitive.
    Other: I chose to pursue this course due to financial issues and change of mind at the last minute. There's no such thing called fest here; expect less, you will be happy.

    College infrastructure and faculties are good nowadays.
    Placements: There is no placement in B.A. English language course. There is no highest and the lowest package as there is no placement. There is no recruitment for companies for this course. No internship for that course and no companies and roles offered in our course.
    Infrastructure: Wi-Fi and labs are present in the college and Wi-Fi is only available in the library and the classroom is also being renovated. The hostel and canteen are there and no medical facilities. Sport and games are available and food in the mess is too expensive and not worth it.
    Faculty: Teachers and professors are very helpful, good in behaviour. They are highly qualified and much more knowledgeable. Teaching quality is absolutely good, student understanding easily. I guess this course does not have much curriculum relevant Its difficult for the students who wait for the exams to come and prepare for them.
    Other: I chose this course because I like the English subject and the best thing about this course is the novel and story, teaching and the depth of the language.
