It's morning college, so if you don't mind walking up and going to a class at 6:15 AM.

Placements: The college does not provide any placement opportunities. We are told that the college used to provide us with internship posts last semester, but since most of the students did not take up the opportunity, they have stopped providing the internship option altogether. No assistance in placements at all.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are decent, smart boards are available, but most teachers do not use them. Wi-Fi is there, but the password is not shared. The college library does not let you take the book home, so I don't understand the point, but the seminar library is good, with access to all the necessary books related to economics.

Faculty: The exam is conducted by the university, not the college. You have to go to another college to take exams. If you have heard about Calcutta University, you would know how the exams are. The curriculum is very theory-based and barely practical. It is doable.

Review of Dhrubachand Haldar College.

Placements: The college offered a very large number of students good placement opportunities. They were very good at their roles. They provided thousands of students with placements in their respective fields. The principal also took responsibility for the placement and provided a lot of support.

Infrastructure: There were very good facilities. Facilities for my course were good. The hostel of the college was also in very good condition. The hostel was helpful for students who lived far from their homes. It made things much easier for them.

Faculty: Faculty was average but helpful. The exam system was the same as in other colleges, but teachers and department staff were very nice and helpful. Students were very lucky to have their support. Their knowledge gave us the vision to go even further and helped us with our education. Teachers were friendly and helped students do better in their education.

Good placement drives and supportive teachers.

Placements: It provides great placement opportunities. However, the cost is also among the highest compared with other courses.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are spacious. The lab facilities are very good. The library has a good quantity and quality of books. However, cleanliness and hygiene need to be improved. There is also a seminar hall where beautiful events are organised by teachers and students. The chemistry lab is good.

Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable. The notes they provide are very helpful. Semester exams under CU are, of course, tough, but if you regularly attend classes, you can easily score well. Teachers provide helpful questions that may appear in the exams and are very cooperative. Mass Communication and Journalism is the best course. Teachers are also well-known in the field of reporting. The Economics department is also good. B.Sc. Mathematics teachers are supportive.

It is a quiet decent college.

Placements: It does not provide placement as it is just a normal graduation course. The internships that the students get are often part of the curriculum, and they are paid for by the students. Mostly, the students studying here are preparing for the civil services.

Infrastructure: It provides labs for practical work. It also provides Wi-Fi. Classrooms are decent. It has both a college and departmental library. The quality of food in the canteen or mess is average, but the price is reasonable. It has medical facilities also. Sports and games are scheduled on the campus.

Faculty: Teachers are quite helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is decent. The semester exam is not very difficult. The course curriculum is relevant, but it doesn't make the students industry-ready. Mostly, the students prepare for government exams.

Other: I chose it because I have an interest in psychology. The practical aspect of this subject should be better performed by the teachers. Events often happen on the college campus.
