My college: My opinion and thoughts.
Placements: My college has 100 percent placement. The highest package is 1.14 crore per annum. The lowest is approximately 5 LPA-6 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Amazon, Google, Deloitte, Microsoft, etc. 100 percent of students got internships from my course in MNCs and Indian companies also. Top role offered is Web Developer.
Infrastructure: The college has Wi-Fi, labs, hostel, library, etc. Food quality is top-notch in the hostel mess and canteen. Playgrounds are also very good. We all can play there. Grass on the playground is very good and sports-ready. I was volleyball player there and also the team captain.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and qualified. The course curriculum is relevant. It makes students industry-ready. Exams are not difficult. It depends upon our study and how much time we give to our study and preparation for our exams. We should all prepare well.
Other: I am interested in this course. The best thing is the Python coding. Nothing to improve in the course all is very good. Events are top-notch. Every Punjab and Bollywood celebrity comes here.

Review about Gulzar Group of Institutes (GGI).
Placements: Around 65 to 75 percent of students got placed from my course. I don't know about the previous one. The top recruiter is Shnoor International LLC. Around 80 percent of students got internships in different companies. Top roles are mostly full-stack development.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is pretty decent. Every classroom has AC. Every block has its own Wi-Fi. Every department has its own labs and we can even find books in the library and the library is pretty decent too. We also have medical facilities and an ambulance on our campus.
Faculty: Most teachers are very helpful and qualified. Every curriculum is relevant and also makes students industry-ready. They also provide industrial visits. Semester exams are not that difficult because teachers cover most of the syllabus. Around 65 percent of students pass the exams with no backlog or supply.
Other: I chose CSE because I am interested in coding and in computer languages. The best thing is that I learnt what I wanted to learn. I wish we could learn more computer languages and not be stuck with the basic ones. There are so many events and extracurricular activities on campus. Students are friendly.

Be serious during the semester, avoid the wrong friend circle, and do hard work
Placements: 30-35 percent of students got placed in the last session. The highest package is 1.14 LPA but it is an off-campus placement. The top 5 students got packages like 40 LPA, 28 LPA, 12 LPA, and 17 LPA. The rest of them landed packages around 4 LPA- 7 LPA. IBM, Wipro, Infosys, Microsoft, and Adobe. 10 percent of students got internship from my course. Top roles offered are Associate, Software Developer, and Full Stack Developer.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is provided only in labs. Only in the first year you get AC in the lecture hall, then you will be shifted to non-AC floors. All labs are equipped with AC. The library is quite impressive if you want to prepare for GATE and CDS-like examinations, all the resources are available. Along with that, all the books that are required during the whole Semester will be available easily at no cost. Talking about hostel, there are 4 boys' hostels and 1 girls' hostel (Really too big). I will recommend the Shantikunj two-seater room.
Faculty: In the first year, teachers are really helpful. They provide you with all the necessary resources but from the second year you will not get all the resources like notes from teachers, you have to arrange them yourself. Don't expect that professors will come and teach you wholeheartedly. If you are really serious, then you will score quite well, but if you are not, you will end up scoring 5-6 CGPA or below. If you start to study even one week before, you will get enough idea to score 7-8 CGPA easily.
Other: Flexibility as the college will provide you with enough opportunities like regular hackathons, events, and platforms, and different clubs on campus which will really help you if you are serious about placements. I think there must be a good management system like if one student is too active, then only they get more exposure, like they handle club, they are a coordinator, or they are in sports. There is no push from professors or mentors that they will say yoy to join this, or you have to choose a good friend circle for yourself and actively participate in activities.

Disappointed with college culture, events, and campus life. You can consider it as a last option.
Placements: DA, Developer, and similar roles are offered majorly. Placements are decent but very limited. You can think of it as mass hiring companies, local startups, or local firms. An average package of up to 6 LPA can be expected. Only 2 or 3 students can expect packages up to 11–12 LPA in a batch size of 300 students.
Infrastructure: The overall infrastructure is decent, given the low fee structure of the college. But if you compare it to some big private universities, you cannot expect more. It mainly has hostels and classrooms. There is actually no place to hang out or spend time. There is no infrastructure for sports or gyms.
Faculty: In this college, a batch system similar to coaching classes like Super 60. Two or three teachers are decent in these batches, but other than that, you cannot expect experienced faculty members. The curriculum is kind of outdated. It is an affiliated college, so the syllabus and exam structure are decided by IKGPTU Jalandhar. Personally, I think they have one of the worst systems for exams.
Other: There is not much campus life compared to old reputed universities. There is no culture of societies or clubs. They also have a community-like thing called Unique U. You can join that community if you want, but it has its own benefits and losses. They claim it provides a corporate culture, but it is not completely true. Inside, you can lose your social access in college. There are other restrictions as well. However, there are some benefits, such as escaping academics because there are no classes in this community.

Overall, a good experience.
Placements: If we talk about placements and recruitment, some companies do visit and take some students, but the rate is not so high. It is average. If you prepare well for the interviews, you can get a placement somewhere. But the placement package is very average.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are okay. Wi-Fi is available in all places. But the infrastructure is not so impressive, as the college is very old. Many places have not been renovated. No good canteen exists (there are 3 canteens, but the food we get is not impressive). A 400m ground is available, and there is also a gym. Hostels are not so impressive. Buildings and rooms look old, except for one hostel for first-year boys.
Faculty: Teachers are qualified and teach well. The curriculum, as we know, is not decided by the college itself, so that is not a problem. The semester exams are not so tough. They are average-hard, and you can easily pass well if you study only a few days before the examination.

Supportive faculty, good infrastructure, and decent placement opportunities.
Placements: Around 70-80% of students from the IT course get placed every year. The average package is around 5-7 LPA, while higher packages go much higher. Top recruiters include TCS, Infosys, EPAM, and Cognizant. Roles include software developer, data analyst, and QA engineer.
Infrastructure: The college has good infrastructure with modern classrooms, computer labs, and a library. Our campus is Wi-Fi-enabled. We also have medical facilities and a sports ground. Extra-curricular activities make the campus environment comfortable and student-friendly. The hostel is clean and secure.
Faculty: Faculty members are qualified and helpful. They are supportive. The curriculum covers important IT subjects and provides practical exposure through labs and projects. Semester exams are of moderate difficulty, and students who attend classes regularly and prepare well can score good marks.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in technology and software development. The college organises technical events, workshops, and cultural fests that help students improve their skills.
