Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com. Hons.) - Batch of 2028

Offered by Bhavan's Vivekananda College of Science, Humanities and Commerce

4.0

4.0Placements4.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money

Bhavan's Vivekananda College is the best college I would prefer.

Placements: Placement opportunities are very high in Bhavans it just depends on how we show interest towards reaching goals. This college gives us great opportunities in the placement cell. It conducts tests for eligibility for placement, and students need to qualify them and become eligible for placements. The college provides another test for people who are not qualified and gives them one more chance to prove themselves. Every company that offers the highest package comes to this college in search of the best students.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good. The food availability is also very good, we have a college canteen, and there are affordable rates. Teachers and students can all buy it. Students feel like eating at home. The food tastes that good. Coming to infrastructure, classes are always neat and clean. Almost every class has LED screens in it, only some classes don't.

Faculty: The teachers are so good and interactive. Every student has a separate mentor in this college. A mentor in the sense that the teacher takes over the student and listens to their problems and gives some solutions. Coming to classes, they teach so well, and they make every student active in the class.

Other: The campus is always so clean. It's full of nature. Students won't even feel like going home.

Overall, it is good and has a clean environment.

Placements: Almost 65% of students study in the B.Com course. As a fresher, they offer just 3.5 LPA based on skills. They provide multiple internship opportunities based on students' interests. My college doesn't even offer any roles, and they say they have 100% placements, but they don't.

Infrastructure: The lab is good, but some labs are not used at all and are wasted. My college doesn't even have a canteen. Facilities are good, and the college is strict. Overall, the college is okay. I'm not saying it is amazing. It's good. They don't even have medical facilities.

Faculty: Teachers and lecturers are good and very friendly, but some of them are very strict. They help students very well. They don't conduct any industry tours. We ask them, but they don't reply. The semester exams are very difficult.

Other: I didn't choose any particular course. They offered me this course, so I chose it. The infrastructure is good, but we need a canteen. Very few events are conducted in my college.

3.0Placements2.0Infrastructure2.0Faculty1.0Crowd & Campus Life2.0Value for Money

Absolutely dissatisfied and very controlling.

Placements: Packages for B.Com and BBA are okay, but B.A. and B.Sc. have no placements other than call centres. Packages are apparently good for B.Com and BBA, but there is no point if the other courses are getting menial jobs that aren't in the field they want to pursue. They should introduce more options.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is not available to students and smart boards don't receive Wi-Fi. The library has no computers to do any research, the canteen is too small to accommodate, sports and games situation is just sad at best. Washrooms are horrible and honesty. None of the rooms has good benches or chairs either.

Faculty: Teachers are very average. The teaching quality is bad for a few subjects but very good for others. The curriculum is not for the modern day, as they follow a very paper-and-pen approach instead of modern technology and current skills. Exams are moderate and are based on the syllabus.

Other: This is more like school than college, 0 freedom whatever. Faculty and admin staff are on a power trip and they tend to want so much control over students.

At Vasavi, every student knows everything about life after joining here.

Placements: Almost 90 percent of the students who are eligible for placement got placed. But some of them got a low package of 3.5 LPA. The average package is about 8 LPA as per the college website. Many students have 2 or more offers. Almost 900 students got placed out of 1000.

Infrastructure: 5-6 blocks are there with good infrastructure. Labs are fully equipped with the latest equipment. Computer labs are also very good with good RAM and ROM. The cafeteria area looks good. The ground has football, volleyball, cricket and indoor games like chess and carrom that can be played here.

Faculty: The exams are very strict, and the papers are conducted at a good level, as only those who clear the exam are the ones who studied. The faculty at Vasavi College of Engineering are qualified, supportive, and knowledgeable. The curriculum is relevant and helps build industry skills through labs and projects. Semester exams are moderately difficult, and students who study regularly usually pass with good results.

4.2

Pendekanti Law College is Phenomenal!

Placements: Placements of our college and for that matter, every law college are slim. However, our college is an eight-ranked college and placements for B.A. LL.B. are slim, but some students do get them. However, college helps in making connections and that's more than useful, as working in a law firm or under an established lawyer is how a fresh lawyer starts their journey.

Infrastructure: Our college is not as big, but we have a huge seminar hall, as our competitions like the moots and others are held there. We also have a nice library and a reading hall, but we are allowed to use it only between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM. Classes are good with green boards and a projector installed. There's one canteen as well in our college.

Faculty: We have some senior and some junior faculty members. Senior faculty members of our college are extremely good as they teach us theory and relate it to practical examples. So, I am all in for their teaching and the kind of teaching they provide. Faculty members mostly teach us through PPTs and provide us those PPTs too. Junior faculty members too are good but not as good as the senior faculty members.

Other: Our college is a little strict, so only in-house events are hosted. Campus life is good, with classes from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, and then we get access to the library for 2 hours and that is how our college life is on a day-to-day basis.

A good college for learning, infrastructure, and a college life.

Placements: This college provides better placements compared to other colleges. Around 60% of students get placed in the last year's batch. The highest package provided is around 5-6 LPA. It also provides internships from the 2nd year. Overall, it is a good placement-providing college.

Infrastructure: The college has good infrastructure and provides good facilities. The management provides digital classrooms, seminar halls, playgrounds, a canteen, study halls, meeting halls, and more. Everything is good. There is no worry about infrastructure and facilities. It maintains good quality overall.
