Quality education, no placements, proper labs, good library, small campus.

Faculty: Almost all teachers are well-qualified, have done PhDs, and have 10+ years of teaching experience. I don't think that the course will make students industry-ready. Semester exams are difficult, yet it depends on the student. But the result is almost 95% plus every semester.

Faculty is good, especially BBA's, but the main college faculty can find them quite rude.

Faculty: Teachers are very sweet and supportive, and they give their best. They are like a friend. They talk sweetly, they try to support you, and share knowledge with their best efforts. But there is only theoretical study, no practical experience that you can gain, and BBA has a semester system, so the study system works fast.

It is an affordable government college, but placement opportunities are limited.

Faculty: From the college prospectus/UG prospectus, they highlight that the college has well-qualified faculty and a robust research culture. Semester exams are not very tough if you go through the books and notes. I could not find consistent data or official statistics in the prospectus about the exact B.A. pass rates.

Excellent learning environment with affordable, supportive teachers.

Faculty: Most senior professors hold PhDs and have significant experience, particularly in the core Commerce and Management departments. A common student complaint is the high faculty turnover rate, meaning your teachers might change mid-semester. Some students feel the teaching method is more theoretical rather than practical or case-study based.

Attendance is the only good thing here.

Faculty: There are some stingy teachers. Faculty members are well-qualified, helpful, and will solve your doubts if you approach them. I would say it's kind of a mixed bag. Most of the faculty is outdated though, so motivation still makes the difference. Exams are written, and there's a saying here that more sheets equal more marks.
