I'm satisfied.

Placements: Around 20%-40% get direct placements, as many pursue higher studies. In the lowest package, the college has offered course for us, so that students can study well without any financial pressure. Top recruiters are from Bangalore, Mumbai, etc. Europe is also part of the best option as well. Above 60% of students got internships in better institutions at Manashasthra Mind Care, Kilpauk, Child Mental Care Farm, and so on. Top roles include clinical psychology, counseling, medical and psychiatry, f...

I think I feel good because of facilities and helpful faculty members.

Placements: I'm studying 2nd-year psychology. So I have no placement now but other departments like 3rd-year students are attending many interviews with recommendations from the college. Many of them are also placed with good packages. So this information only I know about placements.

Well, if you came only for study, it is good.

Placements: In our college, students are selected according to their percentage, which has to be more than 75%. And our college has a link with the government hospital in Kanchipuram; it's helpful for practicing. Apollo and Chettinadu Hospital came for placements. You will definitely get selected in any of the two hospitals.

Review of Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital, MAHER.

Placements: I have been a dental student here at Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital for almost 4 years (My final year). We are a class of 90 students. The package given to interns is low, but the patient flow is good as it is situated in one of the main areas of the city.
