Review of Swaminarayan University.

Placements: In MBBS, the seats are filled through the counselling process. There were 150 seats previously, but now the seats have been increased to 200. There are 52 seats offered for MD. The package is much higher than other colleges and universities because of the private university.

Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are superb with AC and non-AC rooms. The medical college has its own hospital named PSM, which offers the best medical services.

Faculty: The faculty members are very helpful and stand side by side with the students during the whole completion of their medical journey. The college works as per the guidelines of the NMC. The papers are difficult, moderate and sometimes easy. A minimum of 50 percent is required to pass. The number of faculty members is very high, and a lot of other staff is also present, which is very helpful.

Other: It was my dream to be a good MBBS doctor. The campus is full of greenery and lots of events take place. There are many science fairs that take place during the three-month gap. The fests are very much heart-touching.

Value for money college if you want to do B.Sc. in microbiology.

Placements: I would say that the campus does not provide any placements, but they managed to organize the industrial tour, in which we were introduced to the dairy industry. Through that industrial tour, we got our placement opportunities. The average percentage of the students was about 63%. The top recruiting companies were Sarhad Dairy, etc. The highest paying placement was about 2.3 LPA.

Infrastructure: The campus has mainly these departments, including Physics, Chemistry, Zoology, Botany, Microbiology, Statistics, Industrial Chemistry, and Maths. Each and every department is pretty good. I am not sure about others, but the botany, Zoology, microbiology, and Chemistry are awesome.

Faculty: Our curriculum and exam schedule were too good. Curriculum contains the trending, the recent discoveries, and the knowledge. It is still benefiting us in further studies. Mid-semester exams are like a piece of cake. The semester-end exam was very tough, and the evaluation system was very tough.

Other: I chose this college for its reputation for B.Sc. in the whole of Bhavnagar, and its value for money.
