    I am dissatisfied because there is no sports facility as our college doesn't have ground.
    Placements: Placements at our college are quite good because various companies visit our college to select students and offer only 2 students who have more than 7 out of 10 CGPA. Students who score below 6 or 7 CGPA have no placements. They have to find jobs on their own.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure inside the classroom is very good. Our college does not have any kind of ground or sports activities. It has a library with great infrastructure and a seating system. It has a good canteen. The only thing which is negative is it does not have any ground.
    Faculty: Our teachers are a little helpful and qualified. It is a little bit difficult to understand the language because they don't speak English. They only speak in the local language, which is Tamil in Chennai. Students are out of Tamilnadu. It is a bit hard for them to understand the language. Exams are quite easy for the semester. We do not need to do more hard work because it is easy to pass semesters as our college does not have that much strict correction.
    Other: I chose this course because of my passion for learning about web designing, web development, and new languages in the computer like Python, C+, and Java. Our college does not have any kind of events. There are very rare events compared to different colleges.

    Overall, it is a good college in the city.
    Placements: I am in the second year of the BCA course, so I don't know about placements. But next year, placements will be conducted, then I will know about the placements. The college provides an internship in May.
    Infrastructure: It is a good college in the centre of the city, and it is the best for nearby students who want to take B.E or arts and science courses. Overall, the college is good. The college provides facilities like computer lab, free Wi-Fi with good speed, physics lab and EEE lab.
    Faculty: Teachers in our course are highly qualified. All teaching staffs are PhD holders and doctorates. Their teaching will bring more success in you at the end of college life. We get placed in the top companies. If you want a high salary package, then I will prefer with Katangalathur campus, which is the main campus.

    Overall, it's a good and well-maintained esteemed institution where students can learn.
    Placements: The college provides placement training for the students who are capable and responsible. Students are taught coding with the personal systems in lab sessions. Online mock tests are also provided in terms of the lab where students can check up their coding skills.
    Infrastructure: They support sports, and the infrastructure is quite okay. Located in the main city, traveling is easy because metro lines, bus stops, and auto stands are all nearby. The canteen is very good, offering a variety of foods, and there is also a restaurant like A2B outside the college premises.
    Faculty: Teachers are experienced and good. It's easy to grasp subject knowledge, and they also help after college hours. Overall, it's easy to clear semester exams if we study. There are cycle tests, a model exam, and then the semester. Basically, a semester lasts six months, with monthly cycle tests, a model exam in the fifth month, and the semester exams.
    Other: Events are frequent, and multiple bazaars are held. There are inter-college competitions and much more.
