My college review, all the best.
Placements: Sadly, there is no placement available at our university. But you can apply to other Sikkimese universities, which are private, and they can give you placements. But the skills you'll be learning throughout the journey will not upset you at the end; these will bring a lot of opportunities in the future.
Infrastructure: Yes, there are labs and Wi-Fi facilities as well. There are many department classrooms in our SU, and the library is a plus point there. The hostel facility is also quite good, as my friends never complain about the mess food, but the water scarcity is a major problem here in the state.
Faculty: Our psychology professors are very smart, to be honest. Compared to other faculty members, they are young, so their teaching methods are very advanced and highly acknowledged. The semester exams are divided into 3 stages. For example, in one semester, we have to give 3 exams. The first term is totally based on writing (25 marks), and the second term is based on assignments and presentations. The third term is written, which carries 50 marks, and in the end, we need to score 33 to pass.
Other: I chose psychology because I want to become a psychologist. Ever since I was in 9th grade, my school counselor has inspired me a lot. And you can also choose a course since its so diverse and the professors who will be guiding you through this journey are amazing. Yes, college life is a bit hectic, but this festival season will boost your interest. We also have 3 other clubs, so students don't feel bored. The theater club, the NSS club, and the NCC club.

Most important our college dean is not good he does't know anything I don't know how he becomes OU.
Placements: Our senior are placed in big metro cities. They are paying with high prices. The companies like Infosys, Indian Air force, Indigo Airlines etc. We offer with different posts like a manager, supervisor, marketing manager etc. 40 to 50% of students got the internship from college. The highest rate of placements are 90%, and the lowest is 50%.
Infrastructure: We have many facilities in our college like Wi-Fi, labs, and the classrooms are big, library, medical facilities, sports games and many more that are available on our campus. They provide cheap quality food in our college canteen. Hostel rooms are also good they are big, and in one room 4 people can stay.
Faculty: Our college faculty members are well-qualified and knowledgeable. They are also very helpful in our college issues and personal problems. The teaching quality is somewhat good and somewhat bad. The ratio of faculty members is like in one department we have 4 faculty members.
Other: In our college, every year there were many events organised. Every year college fests are also conducted.

Nice environment and culture, surrounded by helpful and polite people.
Placements: Placements were not much guaranteed here unless you were in a professional course. The city also had less opportunities for exposure internships in various domains. You were pretty much on your own if you were expecting placements from this institute.
Infrastructure: Classrooms and departments were spread over the entire city of Gangtok, making it quite inconvenient to travel across the city to reach any part of the university. It lacks a well-constructed campus life. Hostels were just fine with all essential amenities provided.
Faculty: Faculty members were great. However, most of them had left now so I couldn't say much about the present scenario. The exam patterns and structure were very easy. You will get 50 marks from internals and 50 from finals which makes it easier to score good CGPA. It was hard to fail here.

No placement facility but good infrastructure and good faculty.
Placements: There is no placement management in our university. However, if your CGPA is good, you can easily get a normal job as a starter with a salary of around 20,000. In psychology, it's a little hard to find a job within Sikkim, but you can surely find one in the southern part of India due to high demand.
Infrastructure: Yes, there is Wi-Fi and library facilities provided by our university. It is really amazing to witness the peaceful environment of our library; it is very well organized, and we also have a sports club for everyone. It allows us to compete and explore new phases.
Faculty: Our psychology professors are really good. They are well-advanced professionals who provide us with notes and help us throughout the semester. Exams are divided into three parts: set 1, set 2, and end term. The passing percentage is 33%. It is easy to pass if we study.
Other: I chose psychology as my course because I want to help the youth and children cope and share their burden of mental illness. Apart from studies and exams, we also have a fest once a year, which takes almost a whole month to complete, along with many other events that bring high spirits to us.

Hi, According to UGC guidelines, you have to do only one course at a time either a regular one or a distance, one you cannot do two UG courses at a same time. So, if you want to do BA in psychology, then you would have to forego one your current course B.Pharma.
