    I am completely dissatisfied with college life.
    Placements: There are no direct placements, but professors share notifications of different private job vacancies with us in the WhatsApp group. One can join any private company on their own, but the college does not arrange any placement cell for direct placements.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the classrooms is okay but there are only two tiny classrooms. Sometimes, many students even do not get their seats because of the shortage of space. Labs are well-organised. The library facility is also there. The hostel is livable but the food is not that good.
    Faculty: Not all the professors are good in teaching but all of them are knowledgeable. This course is just a path and one's preparation is completely dependent on oneself. Semester exams are quite tough to score good marks. The pass percentage is more than 80%. If we do not study, we will obviously get backlogs.
    Other: I accidentally chose this course and I regretted this but now I am doing well. I suggest if students are passionate about fish and fisheries then they can join this course, if not then please do not join it. I think the teaching should be improved. Events, fest, etc., are absolutely well-organised. In scholarships, officials do not co-operate well.

    Review of Hi-Tech Film & Broadcast Academy Barracpore (Hitech Animation).
    Placements: Most of the students from our course got placed. The salary package offered is usually low or average. However, overall, placements aren't much bad, but it depends on your skills. However, as long as you can do your best, you would get placements. I saw students getting the starting salary package of 3 LPA and even 1 LPA, so it depends on students.
    Infrastructure: Our college has highly modern classrooms with all modern facilities, but it does have a Wi-Fi facility, labs and other faculty members who are needed. It isn't bad but little cramped. However, faculty members are nice, and this place is in a prime location. Once you get used to it, it is fine.
    Faculty: The course curriculum can certainly help students, but as to get industry-ready, it depends on the teaching of the faculty members. There are plenty of faculty members, so it depends on faculty members and also on you. For animation, faculty members are experienced but don't expect that they make you master since they would mostly teach basic things with some advanced methods.
    Other: I have chosen this course as I loved animation, and I have chosen this institution because it promised that it provides industry-ready training. Moreover, I saw good feedback for this college.

    For admission to 5-year B.A LLB program at Hazra Law College, you need to take Calcutta University Law Entrance Test (CULET-UG) as the college does not accept the CLAT scores.

    With  a score of 78% in class 12, you meet the minimum academic cutoff requirement.
