One of the best overall colleges in the mountains.
Placements: The general number of individual placements is high, but the college does not provide direct placement facilities. Although students have a good chance of being selected by multiple companies, the college itself is not directly involved in organizing placements.
Infrastructure: There is a lack of lab infrastructure in the Geography department. Although it is one of the best departments in the college. Other science-related departments have better labs and infrastructure. The hostel facilities for girls are better since there are no hostels for boys. But the girls' hostels are better and provide decent food and structure.
Faculty: The teaching quality is very good. Professors are helpful as well as well-qualified in their respective departments. The college does make students industry-ready by encouraging the teaching of extra subjects that prepare students to face the real world. Exams depend on the student. If a student attends classes regularly and is attentive in lectures, he or she will pass easily.
Other: I chose geography because it is one of the best subjects to study at this college. The geography department here is one of the best in North Bengal.

All about my experience in Mathabhanga College.
Placements: If a student get 50% number in HS, they can get a seat in my college. Now, in new semester system, if a student can get 45% in their HS they can get seat in my college through online. There is no placement system in this college, but if a student scored good results then they can get a seat in various universities, even in JNU.
Infrastructure: There is Wi-Fi available in our campus, labs for scientific research, a library where there are so many books available, and a digital classroom. Although I don't stay in hostel, there are 2 hostels in this college, one for boys and one for girls.
Faculty: The professors are very qualified and helpful, they always encourage us. They teach us very kindly. If anyone is having problems understanding any of lessons, they repeat the lessons. Exams are not so difficult for those students who read regularly, but it's difficult for those who don't read. Pass percentage of the exam is 40%. The professor in my department is very friendly. They behave like friends.
Other: I completed my graduation in English. From childhood to young age, I have always liked the subject of learning new languages, new cultures and various things. In this course, the best thing is that I learnt about various cultures, the history of the English language, etc. In our college, there are Various scholarships available like SVMCM, Kannayashree, SC /ST, etc.

Very good infrastructure.
Placements: Need to find your own job by taking exams. Taking government exams helps you get a job. College has internship campaigns, which will give you experience that will help you in your future. According to the latest report, some students got a good package.
Infrastructure: Good classroom and lab. It also has a separate library and a decent canteen, which provides decent food. The library is good, but the librarian is always angry. Labs are good, but in the computer lab, some computers don't work properly. Projectors are present.
Faculty: Teachers are good. Syllabus of B.Sc. Computer Science is almost the same as BCA. Semester exams are not so hard. I just need to study. Results are given in SGPA, and if you get a 3.5, then you are good to go otherwise, you need to give the exam again next year.

Affordable education with supportive faculty, needs more practical exposure and events.
Placements: Around 70?80% students were placed. The highest package offered was ?12 LPA, the lowest ?2.5 LPA, and average around ?4?5 LPA. Top recruiters included TCS, Wipro, Infosys, ICICI, and Capgemini. Around 60?70% got internships from platform like Internshala, BSNL, and EdTech firms.

Infrastructure: Islampur College offers decent infrastructure with Wi-Fi-enabled classrooms, a well-stocked library, and basic computer labs for practical sessions. Hostel facilities are limited, however, private hostels are nearby. The canteen serves simple food, medical aid is basic, and students enjoy sports like football and cricket.
Faculty: Teachers at Islampur College are helpful, qualified, and have good subject knowledge. Teaching quality is decent, with a focus on theory. The curriculum is mostly relevant but lacks strong industry exposure. Semester exams are moderate in difficulty, and the pass percentage is around 80-85% on average.
Other: I chose this course due to my strong interest in the subject and its career scope. The best part is the supportive faculty and affordable education. However, more practical exposure and industry tie-ups would improve it. The campus crowd is friendly, events are few but enjoyable, and connectivity is good. Scholarships are available, and students participate in cultural and sports activities actively. The surroundings are peaceful, creating a good learning environment.
