Life at Anurag University.

Faculty: The teachers are qualified with Ph.D., but when it comes to teaching, a few teachers are not very good. They just read from their mobile phones or show PPT slides and engage the students, but they don’t make it compulsory that the students are understanding. The course curriculum is the same as all colleges. If we get into at least the 3rd year, we can say the semester difficulty is medium.

This is the greatest university.

Faculty: The lecturers were very skilled and informed. However, they did not really assist students. The college faculty had a rather patronizing attitude towards students. Students had to manage their own situations. Other than lectures and classes, there were not many academic activities. Semester exams were difficult, with a pass rate of more than 80%.
