This college is good but not value for money.

Placements: Placements in our college are not up to the mark. They have such high fee structure and placements are not up to the mark. Only 20-30% of the batch get placed in our college. The average salary package offered ranges from 3 LPA - 4 LPA. For internships, the college is helpful, and they have ties with many organisations where students get internships.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college is good, and students have all the facilities. Students have everything including Wi-Fi, good rooms, good classrooms, laboratories, etc. In the hostel, there are very good rooms, triple sharing but big enough for 3 students, they give students a table, a bookshelf, and an almirah. The quality of the food is good either its vegetarian or non-vegetarian.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and knowledgeable. Almost 90% of the students pass the examination, and the exams are moderate. Many teachers have a good grasp of their subject and are very good at communicating the same. The course curriculum is relevant.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest in law. There is nothing this college can do about improving itself, it is up to the students, if they want to study, they can study since all the facilities are available like moot court competitions, mediation competitions, trial advocacy, etc.

Review of Symbiosis Law School, Symbiosis International, Hyderabad.

Placements: There are certain placement criteria set by the college, clearing which you will be eligible to give the interview. You will get to know about your field of interest by the end of the third year. Companies like Luthra&Luthra, Tatva Legal, and Shardul Amarchand offer placements in their firms.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and hostel are pretty decent. You can avail all the facilities here. The food quality is standard, and the mess team caters to the needs of vegetarians as well as non-vegetarians. Apart from the day-to-day food menu, you can order anything you want to have from the canteen as well. 24-hour medical support is available. There are several courts for different games too. Separate football, volleyball, and basketball courts are available. Table tennis and other indoor games are present too.

Faculty: The teachers are very well-qualified and are always ready to help us. The course curriculum is designed according to the student's needs. Students can choose their field of interest and focus on that subject. Semester exams are not that difficult, but you need to attend all the classes in order to answer the questions efficiently.

Other: I wanted to get into a corporate firm, so BBA LL.B. was the best option for me. They have prepared the entire curriculum very efficiently. The campus crowd is pretty amazing, and you get to meet a lot of people from different backgrounds. Weekends are mostly filled with some or the other event. You'll have a lot of fun there, and it never turns monotonous at all.

Choose this college if you want the brand name and opportunities that come with it.

Placements: The placements are average, and the packages are also average. The highest package offered was 11 LPA, and the average package was between 4-5 LPA. Students did get into great firms, but all of that depends on the student's individual hard work. There is a placement cell that provides students with internship opportunities. Every student has to intern for one month after each semester. Either the student can secure an internship on their own or ask the placement cell to provide for them. The placement cell has tie-ups with good firms and advocates who take interns on a regular basis on the basis of the student's performance.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is good. Library access is provided both online and offline. The online library has lots of resources like SCC, Manupatra, J-store, Grammarly subscription and many more such tools. The college provides rich and reliable resources. The hostel does not have AC facilities. The campus has Wi-Fi and canteen services. There are three beds in one room, and the size of the rooms is on the smaller side.

Faculty: The teachers are average. They do help us out. The curriculum is extremely good, with law subjects starting in the very first year. There are two tutorials and one semester-end examination. Writing a research paper is mandatory, which helps us a lot in getting us ready for the outside world. Passing is not an issue if you really prepare for the examinations. The papers are moderate.

Other: The college conducts a variety of extracurricular activities with more than 10 clubs and centre for specialisation. Mooting culture is very strong here, and a lot of activities are conducted to boost confidence of students.
