    Review of the College IGNOU.
    Placements: The course is very good, and more than 80% of students complete it. The course also has a good placement record, with an average package of more than 15 lakh per year. Top recruiting companies for this course include Pune University. In addition, more than 90% of students in my course complete an internship.
    Infrastructure: The library has wifi, and labs are available. The college canteen provides good food. However, the sports and games facilities are poor, and there is no medical facility on campus.
    Faculty: My course has very good teachers who are highly qualified and have good teaching skills. However, the students are not ready for the industry. The semester exams are easy, but the pass percentage is very low, making it difficult to pass the course.
    Other: I chose this course because I wanted to learn the best things about the College. I think the campus crowd is great, and there's nothing that needs to be improved. However, my course did not offer scholarships.

    DPG is one of the study centres of IGNOU having supportive teachers and average facilities.
    Placements: I'm from BSCG course which has an average percentage of students enrolled. 40-60% students were placed in my course. The package offered was approximately 20-60k, depends on your grades and work. IGNOU also provides offline classes and full practicals classes for better learning which I love about the institute.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure is great as they have proper AC classes, labs, library, playground, smart boards, Wi-Fi, etc. They also provide good mess food in the campus. The food is delicious and you can also order what you want to eat on special requests. They are very supportive.
    Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, PhD qualified and highly educated. They really help clear your doubts and teach well. You’re provided the same facilities which a regular student gets. The course curriculum is relevant to enter any field and to an extent it makes the students industry ready as they provide practical knowledge too. Semester exams are a mixture of basic, moderate and hard questions and it actually depends on how much you have studied. Total marks are 50 out of which you need to get at least 18 to pass in the course subjects.
    Other: I chose this course as I'm from a medical background and I also wanted to do job simultaneously. It's the best university which fit my requirements and provided all the facilities including offline classes in case you have any doubts, practicals study, etc. BSCG is a course providing core knowledge about the living organisms (Biology) , Chemistry and Physics. This university is affiliated to recognised boards too. So IGNOU is ideal for students who want to work and study at the same time. I feel one thing that needs to be changed or I would say that needs to be added is social life and more interactions between the students and teachers so that we can get good knowledge about the core studies. As it's an open university, it doesn't conduct any fest or extracurricular activities.
