Dav College - My experience.

Placements: We are taken to schools for internships in the last 8th semester where we don't have to write any exams, and we just do internships. However, it is up to the principal of that school, to keep us or not. CTET should be cleared by students.

Infrastructure: We have Wi-Fi, air-conditioned as well as lit rooms. It is a good department for anyone who is not comfortable going to a government college. Anyhow the food in the canteen is checked by professionals and then given to the students. There are medical facilities as well as sports facilities and a sports day is also celebrated every year.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. They all have Masters and PhDs in their subjects. The quality of teaching is top-notch. The curriculum is highly relevant. There are 9 subjects out of which four subjects are related to education.
