Balance between jobs and studies.

Placements: 80% of students are placed in my college. The highest package is 4 LPA, and the average package is 2 LPA. Almost 90% of students are provided with internships where they master several vital skills for jobs. I would say that it is really worth the money we pay.

I am fully satisfied. I would recommend to join my college, you would not be disappointed.

Placements: The total percentage of students was around 70 percent. The highest package offered was around 7 to 10 LPA, and the lowest was 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies were ITC, Sun Pharma, Tata, and FMCG companies. Around 10 percent got internships. Roles offered were like Head of Accounts and account executive. Actually, it totally depended on you and how you scored your marks.

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.

Scottish Church College - My Experience at one of the best colleges in Kolkata.

Placements: Placements of BBA and B.Com vary from salary packages of 2.5-3 LPA. Top 10% of students get placements with 3-4 LPA. The remaining students are offered salary packages between 1.5-3LPA. In the previous year, 2 students got placed with a salary package of 6 LPA with placements in a political consultation company, which was the highest. Most of the Science students don't opt for placements. They go for higher studies.

Colleges are good for students.

Placements: In terms of placement, the college stands poorly. Course placement does not happen every year, and if any company comes for placement, they don't offer at least the industry average. Companies like PWC, Deloitte, ITC, and Tata come for placements. The highest package is 3.80 LPA, the lowest is 1.20 LPA, and the average package is 2.40 LPA.
