    A: 

    To prepare for the DU placements students should focus on the aptitude. Practicing quant and LRDI. Update the resume and keep it concise. Be confident and have technical domain knowledge. Stay updated with major news updates and industry updates. 

    Q:   Do I need 60% in Class 12 to get admission in DU?
    A: 

    DU is considered one of the most competitive universities in India for Commerce, Science and Arts education at the undergraduate level. The university and its affiliated colleges was attracting the cream layer of crowd till the time admission was subject to Class 12 scores. While reserved category candidates still had minor chances of getting into a not-so-popular course of DU with 60% in Class 12, a General category student with 60% had no chance of getting into any good college or course at DU. 

    However, starting 2022, DU admission process has shifted to CUET-UG based admission process. Those with a valid score in CUET UG exam who have passed their Class 12 are eligible to take admission now. While the chances of getting into a good DU college are still low at this score, the chances of getting a seat have increased now (provided you score extremely well in CUET UG).

    Good place to have a valuable degree with nice college life experience.
    Placements: This course doesn't have placement through Delhi university. I think there should be placement by college so student will worry less about 'what to do next? '. But as it is not a private university, or my course has limited placement sectors where you need to clearify competitive exams to have a job, so there isn't such thing as college placement.
    Infrastructure: Classrooms are very spacious. Every classroom has sitting arrangement for around 100-150 or more students. Satyakam bhavan even has air conditioning classrooms and those totally look one from any college based movie. There are many canteens but they are closed from a long time now. There's just 1 very small and not so good canteen at a very hidden corner.
    Faculty: Faculty is really supportive of Sanskrit department, even I borrowed books from teachers for some time, and they trusted me for that. One of my fellow asked notes just before exams, and teacher gave her every note, pdf, books he could find at that time. It took him maybe an hour long to search and send everything, but he did it, even for 1 student.

Students had the access to many libraries like department and central. The department was fully air conditioned. But for the hostels only few students got them.
    Faculty: Faculty was very helpful, qualified, knowledgeable and experienced too. Everything they taught was kept with the fact that they are imparting practical knowledge to the students. As for the curriculum it needs a bit of the upgradation as there are many languages which are now demanded.
