Our college is so great.

Placements: In my course like 60 percent or above can get it. In our course, the best is about business. In our college, everyone can get internships. There's no percentage of what our teachers give. We do have internships like teaching in other schools. We do have many roles, etc.

Infrastructure: Our college has many facilities like hostel, canteen, gym, garden, fields, labs, library, and many other things. In hostel, we have a small garden and we enjoyed a lot with our hostel mates and with seniors too. Our college canteen is also good.

Faculty: Our teachers are kind and friendly. They teach us so well. They let us know ourselves what if we face problems, and they teach us again and again. Our semester exams are easy. But if we don't study, it will become hard for us.

A good college and worth studying.

Placements: In BBA LL.B., there are A and B sections. In each section there are around 60 students. We can apply for an internship from the 1st semester, but did not mention the company and the roles offered. Most student do not start their internship in 1st semester. Mostly, after the 3rd semester, students will start to apply. For an internship, we need to write an application and submit it to the institution's office.

Infrastructure: The building is good, but we don't have a campus to roam around. Only the building itself is where we can spend our days and even take a break. There is no canteen to eat at, but we can eat at a nearby restaurant. We have a library with AC. No place for sports and games, but we used to have moot court, debate, etc. We don't have a hostel, we have to stay at the nearby PG or rent a house.

Faculty: The teachers are helpful, friendly, qualified, and knowledgeable. The semester exams are average, not that hard, not that easy. We face exams for 80 marks, and we get marks according to our performance, it's fair. The pass percentage is also average, it will not be 100 percent, but it's average.

Kind of satisfied with the college and the faculty, everything is balanced as of now.

Placements: The direct placements from this course are almost zero. One has to have great skills to get a job directly after a UG degree here. Although the college has a placement cell, it also guides the students to have their dream job ahead and be successful in life. There is no such campus recruitment.

Infrastructure: The facilities provided in classes are good. The infrastructure and college campus are good as well. There are many new facilities provided in the college, and it’s quite good. The classrooms are good. But there is no hostel for the college students. If you want to study here, there is no option for a hostel.

Faculty: The teachers here are one of the best in the state, they are highly qualified and knowledgeable as well. The teaching quality here is great. The course curriculum is relevant as well, it’s not just book knowledge—they provide a lot of information and skills which make a student industry-ready. The semester exams are quite difficult, although the pass percentage is high.

Other: Studying here at Guwahati, it is one of the best colleges here, so it was kind of obvious to select the college, the campus is quite small, and the campus life is boring as well. I think an improvement there would be great. If you are coming for campus life and events, it’s almost zero here.
