The college has supportive and experienced faculty, structured curriculum, good infrastructure.

Faculty: Faculty is supportive and knowledgeable. Some could be more engaging. The curriculum is well structured. It covers core concepts, but needs more practical and updated content. Exam system is organized with moderate difficulty. That fairly tests understanding.

Good learning atmosphere with impressive infrastructure and supportive environment.

Faculty: Our faculty are very helpful, well-qualified and knowledgeable. Most teachers have PhD degrees. Even though each teacher has their own style, almost all of them try to include case law discussions, class debates, or small activities so we don't get bored with only theory. The teacher-student ratio is pretty decent. There are 9 semester exams and one practical exam. To pass the semester, you need to get 30% marks.

My experience at Heritage Law College.

Faculty: Our faculty members are highly educated and experienced in their respective fields. They are very helpful and friendly and always available to help us quench our curiosity and solve any problem we might have regarding our academics. The curriculum is very in-depth and well articulated, which helps us in real-life scenarios. Other than semester exams, we also have numerous class tests, viva, and moot courts, which not only prepare us for final exams but also help us in our careers.

Modern infrastructure, strong CU affiliation, and decent corporate placements with activities.

Faculty: The teachers are well qualified with experience and they motivate, give personal guidance, mentor, and some subject is not revealed, like ENVS, CVA, etc. These are old, but some faculty are friendly and focus on every student, we understand the Calcutta University, so it makes us challenging to score well in exams and college.

Faculty: The faculty is really helpful and supportive, and they literally help the students whenever and wherever they need. The course makes the student ready for the outer world problems, too.

It's good, maybe, but not worthy enough.

Faculty: Some professors are really good. The atmosphere is absolutely non-political. They say they won't follow CU and would take exams on the basis of 6 6-month gap. We are going to have our first sem in January, and the session started in September.

Review of Physics B.Sc. course in S. A. Jaipuria College, Kolkata.

Faculty: Several teachers were well-versed with their specializations and taught well, though not all, the teaching quality was good for several teachers but again not for everyone. The course curriculum is relevant for those who want to study Physics, computational Physics, and gain relevant skills. While no graduate course will make a student fully industry-ready, my course is effective at what it aims to teach. Semester exams were conducted by Calcutta University, with a passing percentage of 35 perce...

The college has wonderful facilities and infrastructure.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and clear doubts during and after lecture hours. They provide interactive teaching, making the lectures lively and interesting. Commerce courses include papers on Accounting, Costing, Economics, Business Mathematics, and new subjects like Environmental Education and Management. These papers make the students industry ready. The semester exams in the college are moderately difficult. The passing percentage is approximately 80-85% but also depends on the particular subjects.

Faculty: All teachers are from high profiles and are well experienced. Their teaching quality is very good and fantastic. B.Com is quite relevant but not as an individual career option; it helps students build their base in finance and accounting to pursue different degrees similar to this. Well-educated faculty members are available in our college. Well-qualified CAs, CMAs, and CS professionals teach in our college, and they teach us like their own family.
