Dissatisfied with teachers and their bad behavior.

Placements: 10% of students are placed in our course. The highest package offered is just 10 LPA. The lowest is 3.2 LPA. The top recruiters are HDFC Bank and Google. About 90% of students are placed in internships in banking companies and high-end tech companies.

Infrastructure: The college library is good, but the classrooms and labs are average at best, with zero to no comfort for students. Hostel facilities are worse. There is no hygiene in the canteens. The food is tasteless, and there is mess everywhere. There are zero facilities for games and sports in the college.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified but are not helpful at all. They are arrogant and only think of themselves. Semester exams are the most unfair thing in this college. Teachers just want to fail you. Mostly judge students based on their looks and satisfy their own ego.

Other: Connectivity is the best. Events take place, and the campus crowd is bearable.

4.0Placements4.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money

University of Kashmir is one of the best universities in India.

Placements: Around 60 percent of the students from my course are placed all around in different companies. They are offered good and satisfactory packages. The highest package is 9 LPA and the lowest is 4 LPA. Top recruiters for our course are Airtel, Teleperformance, and Genpact. The roles offered are supervisor, manager, and HR.

Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure available for my course and department are clean, tidy, spacious, and good. We have labs available. The classrooms are neat, and we also have a library available with a wide range of books available to us. The quality of the hostel is also better compared to other colleges, the quality of food is fresh and good in the mess and canteen. Our college also has medical facilities available for many kinds of emergencies. Talking about sports and games, a lot of games are conducted throughout the year with a lot of participants taking part.

Faculty: The teachers are extremely helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They listen to the students, they help everyone as per the students' needs, and the teaching quality is immaculate. The course curriculum is absolutely relevant, with them teaching us the in-depth application and research of the subject, making us industry-ready. The difficulty of the examination depends on the student, generally I consider it fairly difficult, but that's a good thing because they don't miss anything in the syllabus and try to make us industry-ready. The pass percentage is quite good. Around 89 percent of students pass with good marks.

Other: I chose this course because I wanted to learn more about the business administration field and how we apply this knowledge practically. The best things about this course are that it teaches you how money works in the market and how we can maximize our value. I think all of the things are pretty good, with a little to improve. There are a lot of events held at our college throughout the year. There are fests in which students take part. The campus crowd is decent and good, with good people around, good connectivity, surroundings are good, and scholarships are available.

A beautiful, attractive college. It is indeed beautiful. It is surrounded by trees & greenery.

Placements: To be straightforward, since it is a traditional government college, most students in my course opted to pursue their Masters degrees or prepare for civil services rather than jump immediately into the corporate sector. Because of this, only about 15% to 20% of students were placed directly through the college. The top recruiting companies were mostly local Kashmir enterprises, regional agro-industries like Kanwal Foods and Mir Agro, and a few regional financial setups. The top roles offered to my batch were Sales Executive, Junior Accountant, and Supervisors.

Infrastructure: This is the main thing in college, as we had computers, etc. With Wi-Fi facility, classrooms are spacious, labs are well-equipped, and the library is massive! Hostels are comfortable with tasty mess food. We have excellent sports grounds, decent Wi-Fi, and reliable medical facilities.

Faculty: Teachers gave an absolute 100% & taught with dedication. The semester exams are at a pretty moderate level. Teachers are highly qualified and supportive. The curriculum is relevant and prepares students well for the industry. Semester exams are moderately difficult and very fair, boasting an excellent 85% pass percentage!

Other: The world is changing, so are we, it is the necessity of life. Computer & AI is the future, that's why I chose it.

Our college provides decent infrastructure with facilities like fibre optic, well-equipped labs.

Placements: The biggest package is 10-20 LPA, while the lowest was about 2 to 3 LPA, with an average package of 4 LPA. The top companies include Infosys and HCL. Around 40% of students also secured internships in companies like Infosys and local startups, which help in gaining practical experience.

Infrastructure: The college provides very good infrastructure facilities like fibre-equipped labs, classrooms with LCD TVs, and a library with academic aids. Classrooms are clean and maintained, and labs have the necessary equipment for practicals. Hostels are average with basic amenities available.

Faculty: Faculty members are well qualified and knowledgeable. Most teachers explain concepts clearly and are always ready to help our students with doubts. Teacher quality is very good, though it may vary slightly depending on the subject. The course curriculum is fairly relevant.

Other: Good college with faculty and decent placement opportunities, but some improvements are needed in infrastructure and practicals. I chose this course because it offers very good career prospects and scope for growth.

Did I waste my 3 years at Islamia College of Science and Commerce? My honest college review.

Placements: Unfortunately, no student in my course got placed. The college has an official placement cell, but it is practically inactive. No student from my batch got an internship either. Any student for whom getting placed is a priority should think more before joining this college.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure was kind of decent. The classrooms were both big and small. My favorite place in the entire college was the library. The library is well-maintained, with AC and Wi-Fi facilities as well. The hostel is average. The boys' hostel contains around 26 rooms. Three students stay in a room, making it difficult to have private space there. The food was also decent, though I personally found some hygienic issues. The college has a big group, and you can participate in multiple sports.

Faculty: Teachers were formally qualified and knowledgeable. However, most of them, except for a few, lacked effective teaching techniques. I feel the curriculum, for the most part, is not relevant from the industry perspective. You're mostly trained for getting good marks, not for jobs. The difficulty of the semester exams was moderate. Most of the students (80%) pass the exam easily.

Other: I chose this course because I was fairly good at the subject. I had decided in my 10th class that I would take the Commerce stream. However, I was a little disappointed with the syllabus. I feel that the syllabus taught at the Bachelor's level should be designed with the needs of the industry at the center. The college does organize events, but very few. I hope the college organizes more events in the future. About the scholarships, I'm not sure. I am from a general category. I don't think they have scholarship programs for reserved categories.

I suggest students join GDC, Anantnag, if they live nearby.

Placements: The college is situated in a very good location, which is easily accessible. There are many opportunities in college. The college offers 20 percent placements. The package offered is 2 LPA. L&T, Anchor, Havells, and Lord are the top recruiting companies.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good with top-quality labs and experienced lecturers. It also has Wi-Fi facilities and clean classrooms with a hostel facility for students. It has a canteen, but the canteen is not well-maintained. It lacks good sports facilities, but overall, sports facilities are good.

Faculty: Teachers are very good with top-quality knowledge and qualifications. They are also very experienced and friendly. Exams are based on what is being taught, and nothing is out of the syllabus. The course curriculum is also relevant and makes students industry-ready.
