Good college in Odisha, ITER.

Faculty: The quality of teachers and their knowledge is very important in the IT sector. To be honest, our college provides the best in class. The faculty-to-student ratio is quite impressive, as SOA has more than 500 faculty members. There are only two exams. They are mid-semester exams and end-of-semester exams. The mid-semester exams are usually tougher than the end-of-semester exams. Around 20% of students fail to clear each exam. The course curriculum is a little old, but it is being updated as of 2...

It is a very good college. It is a top college.

Faculty: Faculty members are good. They are highly educated and experienced. The course curriculum is good. It makes us ready for the industry. Faculty members use simple language, which is easy to understand. There are two semesters in a year, and each semester has two sessions, which are conducted by the college.

Good faculty members and campus infrastructure.

Faculty: Teachers are extremely helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. We experienced quality teaching during the 4-year course. The theory from classroom teaching and the practical experience gained during the field visits are all helpful to the students.

Good college as compared to all private institutes in Odisha. 80% average placement.

Faculty: Faculty members are good. The curriculum is also good, and exams are very strict. The course curriculum is relevant, and it makes students industry-ready. It's not very difficult, it's easy. A normal student can achieve above 8 CGPA by reading studying two weeks before the exam.

Good faculty, bad placements.

Faculty: Teachers are quite knowledgeable and helpful, not just with the curriculum but also if you have any personal problems. Most teachers are either retired professors from reputed colleges or those who have studied at NLUs. The curriculum is the same as that of many NLUs. I don't think it makes students industry-ready, as it is just book-based. The semester exams are moderate, and around 70% of students pass the examinations.

College is average. Placements are quite good, and hostel is also okay.

Faculty: They provided us with a chance to grow. Teachers were well qualified. They had helping nature, and full of knowledge but there were some exceptions too. Some teachers were painted on the head. They just teach the 1st benchers and leave. They should take some proper responsibility for this. But the course makes us more motivated towards our future. The difficulties for semester exam were not that tough, it was average. If you study well, then you will surely score well.

Absolutely dissatisfied because of the infrastructure and location but have good faculty members.

Faculty: Our faculty members are very helpful but when it comes to teaching, some faculty members are not that good. Semester exams are not that difficult, and passing percentage is 40%. There are many class tests, group discussions, and presentations that help in public speaking and intellectual thinking.

Detailed review of IDS SOA, Bhubaneswar.

Faculty: Faculty members are helpful and provide practical experience. They complete the curriculum thoroughly and are patient enough even with the slow students. They provide doubt clearing sessions even in their off hours. Course is all about dentistry.

A detailed review of IDS, SOA.

Faculty: Teachers are amazingly helpful in providing help and teaching the material. They even answer our doubts on their off time. Course curriculum is extremely relevant and up-to-date with the current medical standards. The exams increase in difficulty as the course progresses but you won't be able to answer any questions if you don't know the material thoroughly.

Good infrastructure and facilities, but I am dissatisfied with faculty.

Faculty: Some faculty might give you satisfaction, as in my case. The Computer Science professor and the Indian Knowledge Systems professor are good and very helpful. Study pressure is high as there are no gaps between exams. Refer to your immediate seniors.

College has good infrastructure and a crowd. Placements are low. Hostel food is average.

Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable, and they have good teaching skills. Most of the teachers are OUAT graduates. HoDs of different departments are OUAT retired professors. Senior teachers are non-friendly, but the young teachers are very helpful and friendly. Semester exams are quite easy, one can ace them with only a week of preparation. Passing percentage is 40%.

ITER, SOA provides good opportunities to study.

Faculty: Very good professors are there in our college. If someone is studying in our college, then obviously they become ready and skilled for work because our professors are very good. It is not difficult to pass semester exams, so we have to work hard.
