It's totally not perfect, but it is very good.
Placements: Ye placement are there but not as much. Means are soo course they give placement la but like my course B.A. howner in physical education. That case no placement is given by the fatility and college. They have some changes of placement. But totally depend on your college performance.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are good. They are well maintained. I give it 4 because of the cost, it's not as much for middle-class people, it's very huge. It's affordable for the above middle class. An AC facility is also there. Rules and regulations are also strict, and food quality is good, so it's fine. Students come from Haryana, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, and other states. So you can interact with very different people.
Faculty: Exams are conducted properly. There are cameras to monitor the students. Examinations are conducted honestly and in a good manner. There’s no chance to cheat. The college faculty is very well mentioned. Teachers are also fair for the examination. No discrimination for students and all.
Other: My college is famous for its friends and girls. Campus life is totally perfect. But the campus is so small.

A very good college for studies in a good manner.
Placements: Well-educated professionals in law college require 99.9% for law, but our college's higher percentage of admissions should be 99.9% and lower 80%. After this course, students can choose LL.M. and undertake internships for future development. The college is helpful for all the requirements of students.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available for teachers and students. Labs are available, smart classrooms, neat and clean conditions of the campus, and the library gives students extra knowledge. Good quality food in the canteen is also available on campus, and medical facilities are offered. They also focus on sports.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and helpful in nature; they help to understand every topic easily and in practical ways. The teaching quality is very good, it makes students ready for the industry. Teachers share their experience in professions. Exams are according to the syllabus, and passing marks are casual.
Other: I chose this study course to help the nation by becoming an advocate. I want to help poor people. In college, every occasion is celebrated, events are organized, and scholarships are also provided.

The faculty is good, but the university doesn't value the department.
Placements: You don't get any placement directly, it totally depends on you and how you can make a good relationship with scholars and the head of this subject with the help of the department. No internship opportunities are provided by the department, it all depends on your communication skills.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are okay, 1 equipped with air conditioning. Library facilities are available along with books. Hostels are okay again, but the food is good eatable, mostly all things are provided in the rooms, which are necessary. The campus is good in terms of greenery and calmness, but outsiders have recently destroyed the campus culture.
Faculty: Faculty is good and very helpful (the only positive thing about the department), but it needs more recruitment. Curriculum theory-wise is okay, but there is a need for more practical and fieldwork, which is important for the field. Exam charges are high in lieu of the infrastructure provided.
Other: I chose this course because I wanted to, but in this university, this course isn't valued that much, so I want others to avoid this unless you don't want to waste a year.

Waste of money if you are looking for a placement. 
Placements: No companies come to the college for placement after completing their degree. the students themselves have to find jobs. There are no placements as the boys prepare for defence exams, and at the end of the degree, there are only a few boys. The rest are girls who aim to become teachers or are here just to pass the time. 
Infrastructure: No hostel is offered in college, and the parking space is also poor. College infrastructure is average, and the indoor washrooms are clean, but the outer ones are sometimes dirty, and some students also smoke in the outer washrooms. There is no canteen, and only one van comes to college with limited food options. 
Faculty: The teachers are helpful and qualified. Some teachers have very good teaching techniques, but some teachers only read the text and do not explain it properly. They are like reading PDFs. Most of the teachers are nice. The semester exams are easy to pass.

You are basically on your own but work hard to get somewhere.
Placements: The cutoff in the entrance test goes pretty high like a minimum of 70-75 marks so if 50 percent merit is based on 12th boards percentage you should ideally get 90 percent and above to be in the race especially if you are in the general category. No packages are offered because no companies come to UILS. Judiciary culture is more prominent here. Students however seek internships on their own or on rare occasions. CDC cell helps out to get internships in government organisations like SHRC and DLSA.
Infrastructure: The college building is under construction right now as well so we cannot say that the infrastructure is fully developed. Some hostels are very old so the infrastructure is accordingly but some hostels 5 and onwards are really good. Especially international and hostel numbers 8, 9, and 10 in South Campus are really good. Mess canteen food varies with hostel 6 being the best. The rest of the sports and games facilities are average.
Faculty: Teachers in progressive years are super knowledgeable and qualified. Especially in the 4th and 5th year if UILS lacks in infrastructure, it doesn't in the course curriculum or the teachers. If one puts in the work they will leave after learning a lot. Semester exams however are not that difficult it is easy to pass and you must attain atleast 45 marks out of 100 in each subject to pass.

Good for research and studies, but average for jobs and internships.
Placements: At PGGC 11, around 40–50% of B.Sc. Computer Science students who look for jobs get placed. The average package ranges from 3.1–5 LPA, and it can go up to 10 LPA. Companies like TCS and Wipro regularly hire students. Around half of the batch also gets internships in local companies as software trainees.
Infrastructure: College has labs, classrooms, and a library, but there is no Wi-Fi. I am a day scholar, so I do not know much about hostels. But I have heard they are decent and affordable. Canteen and sports facilities are also available. I do not know much about the medical facilities.
Faculty: Teachers are good and polite. The teaching quality is quite good as they adapt technology according to changing times. However, the course is mostly theory-based. Exams are moderate to tough, and the passing percentage in each subject is 40%.
