In LPU when you sit for an MBA interview there are 2 panelists one from the core domain and the other from soft skills to assess you on speaking skills.

And Yes, you will be checked about the General Awareness so you need to keep yourself up to date. You will be asked questions related to your graduation degree and what made you go for MBA as well.

The college has beautiful infrastructure, good facilities, and strong placements.

Placements: The percentage of students who opted for this course was 30%. The students of this course received the highest package of 15 LPA and the lowest package of 9 LPA. Top recruiting companies were Agri-Associate, Kincannon & Reed, AG HeadHunters, and Keller Executive Search. Around 70% of students received internships in these companies. The top roles offered ranged from research and development to practical farm management and even business-oriented positions.

Infrastructure: The college had number one facilities and beautiful infrastructure. The classrooms for my course were hygienic and clean. Every block contained a library, and free Wi-Fi was available 24/7. The quality of food was not ideal for South Indian students. But overall, it was very good.

Faculty: Teachers were highly helpful. Every student had a personal mentor. They prepared us with hands-on experience for every aspect of the course related to the industry. The pass percentage was 99%. The semester exams were above average. I liked it very much.

It is a very good college with excellent infrastructure and strong placement support.

Placements: For recent B.Tech passing-out batches, approximately 85–95% of eligible students get placed. The placement rate is particularly strong for CSE, IT, AI, and Data Science. The core engineering branches also receive consistent placement support. It depends on students’ skills and academic performance.

Infrastructure: B.Tech, BBA, MBA, BCA, and MCA courses are offered. Labs are available, and Wi-Fi is available 24/7 in the hostel and college. The library is very good, with seven floors. Each floor can seat 100–120 students. Food is very good, and three types of food are available. South Indian, North Indian, and combined. Non-veg food is not allowed.

Faculty: Teachers teach in English, but some teach in Hindi, and students can understand. In our college, there is a CAS exam first, then a mid exam, and finally the semester exam. For the semester exam, students have four attempts to pass. If a student does not pass after four attempts, it is considered a backlog. To clear the backlog, the student must pay 10% of the full college fee.

Other: Events happen in the college every week, with 3–4 events. Event fees range from Rs. 100 to Rs. 500. Scholarships are available up to 60–70%. Non-veg food is not allowed. If anyone brings non-veg into the college, their scholarship is revoked.

You get placed according to your capacity and capabilities.

Placements: The placement is given to deserving students who have the capabilities. They are placed by high paying companies, but if you are not that capable then you will have to find your own placement. Every student is not assured of placement. Its according to your capacity.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, smart classes, libraries, and even a hospital inside the campus. The campus is even bigger and has its own many areas and food courts. It has many facilities, like an indoor stadium, a pool, many grounds, and even a helipad for helicopter landing.

Faculty: Good faculty members, learning material, and even a good syllabus and half an hour of sleep in the world is a great day of school and I am not going to the campus. I do not know if it has any questions about your house, and even if I do not, I do not have to worry about getting a free ride.

Other: Everything except non veg is available inside the campus.

4Placements3Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Enjoyed campus life, agriculture practicals are good, but the schedule is tight.

Placements: In our batch, almost 70-75% of students got placed from the course. Placement is honestly above average in LPU if you are consistent. The highest package in my course went around 10-12 LPA, the lowest was around 3 LPA, and the average stayed somewhere near 4-5 LPA. Many companies like Infosys, Tech Mahindra, ICICI, HDFC, and a few agriculture-based companies also visited, depending on the branch. Internships were also offered to almost 40-50% of students, with a bare minimum stipend between 15k and 20k.

Infrastructure: Seriously, writing about the infrastructure, which is one of the starting blocks of the university, is that it has very excellent infrastructure compared to our block, which is at the last. The experience of the library is very good, and the Wi-Fi can be said to be average. I have not taken the hostel because I stay in a PG.

Faculty: Everything is good and best. The atmosphere is very competitive during exams. The curriculum is also good, but the students who fail in the exam have to write a review and appear for an exam that costs 500 rupees. Overall, it’s a positive response from my side.

Other: I have chosen B.Sc. Agriculture, because I always wanted to work in the agriculture field, and LPU was offering a good setup with labs, fields, and practical exposure. The best thing about the course is that we get proper field visits, crop production practicals, and teachers are also helpful most of the time. Events like Krishi Mela, agri-exhibitions, and different departmental activities also provide good exposure.
