One of the best colleges in Kolkata, West Bengal. Fantastic faculty infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: It's one of the most prestigious, history-rich colleges in West Bengal. Around 3 to 4 students every year from a batch of 30 to 40 get placed on campus. Most opt for higher studies in IITs and IISERs by taking the GATE and JAM exams. A large portion of our college gets accepted into them. As it's a reputed college, we get internships easily. Teaching institutions like Allen, Aakash, and PW offer good amounts of money to students with good CGPAs. As I have heard, TCS, HCL, and Infosys come here. In the economics department, the placement rate is much higher. Companies like McKinsey offer good packages, averaging 8 LPA. Despite that, our alumni network is good. You can get a job or teaching opportunities in Kolkata.
Infrastructure: Its infrastructure is really good. Students, teachers, staff, and scholars all have their own different Wi-Fi networks everywhere. There are libraries for each department, but the central library is massive, with 5 floors in total and thousands of books, including old historical books. New newspapers and magazines come daily, like the Times of India, The Hindu, Yojana, and Kurukshetra. The whole campus has central AC. We have 3 to 4 canteens. The food is delicious, and the price is low, too. We have basketball, badminton, volleyball, football, and cricket courts here, and carrom and chess playing places, too. We have government hostels, too. And most of all, everything is government-funded here, so it feels super cheap. We have a total of 7 buildings on College Street itself, all around 5 to 6 floors. There is a huge playground in the middle and lifts in every building. Bathrooms for boys and girls are everywhere.
Faculty: Every teacher is highly qualified. I will give an example: in our department, every teacher has done a PhD from an IIT or IISER. They are very helpful. We don't need outside tuition; lectures are enough. There are computer labs for 30 to 40 people in each department. The chemistry department has around 5 labs and personal workstations for scholars, too. The syllabus is fully CBCS-based and industry-ready. Exams are good enough. A 7.5 CGPA is good if you can get it.
Other: I love physics. It has high scope in the future, too, in data science, quantum computing, everywhere. We have an astrophysics department, too, so it's easy for us to research it in the future. Our department organizes seminars. Scholars, successful scientists from all over India, Google, and abroad come here for seminars. The campus crowd is wonderful; everybody is helpful. It's full of freedom. It's a people's college, really.

Overall, a good college but lacks the maintenance of lab instruments.
Placements: None have tried for professional lines. All have decided to go for higher studies. Most of them have decided to take admission in the same college for higher studies, and few others are trying to get into other institutions that provide integrated courses.
Infrastructure: Free Wi-Fi facility is available for students. Classrooms are clean and have digital teaching aids. A central library is available with a larger collection of books for all departments. Separate departmental libraries are available in each department. Sports facilities like football, cricket, basketball and tennis courts are available.
Faculty: The college has highly qualified and helpful teachers. Though the quality of teaching received varies from student to student, but all students agree to the fact that the teaching of professors is quite satisfying. Most of the professors are involved in active researches too.
Other: Apart from the departmental programs, there is also a central freshers' programme conducted by the students union every year. Besides, Colloquium is conducted by many departments every month.
