    Review of Indian Institute of Science.
    Placements: As I have seen I can say that campus placement conditions have improved in IISc after the inception of the campus placement cell. The average package is around 25 LPA. Since most of the students go for higher studies from IISc, you will see the placement percentage to be low. I am also going for higher studies so this is the placement experience.
    Infrastructure: From what I have seen, the college has quite a good infrastructure compared to the other colleges in the city. Wi-Fi service is available all around the campus. Our classrooms are very clean. The library has a good collection of books. We have clean washrooms. The hostel does not have good things. The food is the worst. Sports are good.
    Faculty: Faculty members are helpful and well-qualified, like Ph.D. holders. The teaching quality is good, and the course makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are more difficult than those at other colleges, but they help in building students. The passing CGPA is above 9. Overall good experience.

    Life at IISc - Pros and Cons.
    Placements: Most of the students after completing four years continue to stay here to get a Master's degree after one more year and pursue Ph.D. from world-renowned institutions. Very few people (<7/100) per batch will sit for campus placements, and most of them will be selected with a good annual package of 30,000 on average. Some students, mostly Physics majors, can give government exams like I.C.R.B., GATE to join ISRO and BARC as scientists.
    Infrastructure: Facilities are good, and the infrastructure in the college is well-equipped. Free Wi-Fi is available for both college and hostel use. The hostel food is very good, and the canteen is also good. Medical facilities are available, and sports and games are taken seriously, with a proper playing ground in the college.
    Faculty: Per week, 3 hours for a course. Each one is good in their subject or area, having vast experience. Their average age is 47-49. They provide consultancy to several government, defense agencies, and commercial companies. Most of them are renowned scientists and known in other parts of the world.
    Other: Calm and serious environment, not much crowded. M/F very high, all amenities available. Two big grounds for football and cricket. Gym, table tennis, lawn tennis, swimming pool, badminton court, etc., are numerous. All races can be found, diversity on campus.
