Review of EduKart.com.
Placements: There was placement assistance. The greatest advantage of this certification was that it was a great add-on to the CV. Securing the right opportunities might require some effort. This certification, especially from a reputable source like Educart, adds significant value to your CV.
Infrastructure: Our college had excellent facilities. Our course was entirely online, so there were no complications. The online infrastructure worked well without any glitches. Recorded sessions were available. As our course was online, we didn't check for facilities like hostels, food, and sports. There were no technical issues, and our classes went smoothly.
Faculty: The course curriculum was relevant. This course syllabus changed frequently, so the team must stay updated with the content. Our teachers were good, although direct interaction was limited in our course. Exams were held at the end, and an assignment must be submitted for assessment.

Review of Karnataka State Open University.
Placements: Students were eligible for placements from term-1.

The hostel room had beds, chairs, fans, study tables, cupboards, etc. Wi-Fi was provided in the hostel.
Faculty: The subjects I learned in this college were very good and impressive to learn new things about management skills and leadership quality. Subjects in our course were different every year. I learned the basics of management economy, finance, and human resources management. The faculty and student ratio was 1:30. Faculty members were highly accomplished in their respective fields, kind, and helpful. Some of the faculty members were very good.
Other: Each classroom was sufficient for 40 students. Our course fee was Rs.18,500 per year.
