It's the best choice for you.
Placements: This college provides good education with placements every now and then and there are also more activities so that you get selected. Recruiting companies are TCS, Deloitte, startup companies, etc. The roles offered are junior accountant, business management, Excel expert, etc.
Infrastructure: Students get free Wi-Fi and they can bring their laptops with them. All the classrooms have AC and the library is so quiet and beautifully organized. The canteen food is good and they make it in front of you with gloves but there is too much noise. The environment is good.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and always try to make their students better. There are loads of curriculum that help to develop your personality. The exams are quite average like the CU questions. The pass percentage is 35 percent. They always believe in us.
Other: I chose this course because of its placements, swimming pool, and based on education. It would be better if the students got a trip like an assignment.
