A good college for learning.
Placements: Around 70% to 80% of students get placements from this college. Several recruiters approach the college during placement time. The roles offered include Accountant, Manager, and Marketing Employee. Students get an annual package of around 5 LPA. Students also get internships from different companies. It is very good.
Infrastructure: The college has most of the facilities required for students to stay and learn. Wi-Fi is available on every floor. A computer lab is also available. The library has plenty of informative books. There is a canteen, along with vending machines and coffee machines.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful at the college. They are qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is also very good. There is a change in the syllabus due to FYUGP. It provides an honours degree, which is helpful for industry-ready learning. The pass percentage is 40%.
Other: All the events are good and enjoyable.

Good campus environment with good facilities and faculty.
Placements: Around 80% of students in the CS department get placed. The average package is 5 LPA. I do not know about the maximum and minimum packages. The packages are very low, but most students get placed, so there are enough opportunities. IBM is probably one of the top recruiters. If you study well, you can get placed very easily.
Infrastructure: I live in a hostel outside the college, but I know about the college hostel. People say good things about the hostel and its facilities. Wi-Fi is available in the college and hostels. There is a huge collection of books in the library. Labs are well-equipped, and the infrastructure is good. The classrooms are also good.
Faculty: The curriculum is, of course, bad, as you know, because of KTU. Teachers are good and supportive, but they also kind of lack progressive thinking, except for some good teachers. There are many good teachers, though. The first year may be hard due to many guest lecturers, but then it gets better.
Other: The union came last year and served the students.

Joel review of LED College of Management.
Placements: Placements were excellent at this institution. Major MNCs visited the campus with different profiles. Some selected students in single digits, while others recruited in large numbers. We had tests, group discussions, and other selection rounds. It was quite hard to compete, as students from other branches also attended placements for the same roles. Many different companies came for placements, including Amazon, Climber, Infosys, Wipro, and TCS. They visited the campus and offered average packages ranging from 3–4.5 LPA. The highest package was 23–35 LPA, depending on skills and qualifications. Companies made offers to almost 80–90% of students every year.
Infrastructure: The hostel facility was good and disciplined. Students also had freedom, so they did not feel that they were away from home. There were enough rooms to accommodate all students. The hostel provided everything, and the mess food was good and hygienic. Proper care was taken of students' health.
Faculty: Faculty at my college was very good. All professors were highly knowledgeable. They taught us very efficiently and in the best possible manner. There was also scope for many extracurricular activities. We had a big common room where we discussed plenty of things. The semester examination system was followed. We had an end-semester exam of 70 marks every six months. In between, we had mid-semester exams of 20 marks each. Marks were also awarded for assignments and attendance. The exam difficulty level was moderate. The course structure was very good. There were many different types of research and activities. Teachers taught in a smooth manner, and we gained a lot of knowledge from them. The course curriculum was updated from time to time according to the current scenario.

My journey in this college.
Placements: Placement was good in the college. Companies came and selected the best to see what they wanted to see in an employee. We had a lot of placement opportunities after completing our course. There was a separate placement cell in the college that looked after placement-related work and invited companies for placement. Companies that visited our campus were TCS, Infosys, Amazon, Flipkart, HDFC, etc. They offered an average package range of 3 LPA, and the highest was 25 to 28 LPA. Internship opportunities were also provided by companies, and companies conducted interview sessions and group discussions for selection.
Infrastructure: The course structure of my college was very good, along with the extracurricular activities that happened in our college on a regular basis. I enjoyed being a part of this college and learned so many things from my college. The course structure was standardized, continuously updated, and kept pace with the required level of knowledge at this level. An amazing collection of faculty from different fields made the learning more interesting. As there was no hostel facility, you could get PGs outside the college campus at reasonable charges with proper facilities.
Faculty: Faculty members were very experienced, and they had nice qualification degrees. Their teaching skill was also very good, and for every subject, they had a different teacher. Everyone held a Ph.D. degree and was experienced in their respective fields. They guided us well, told us about the current needs of industries, and were always ready to clear our doubts. So, overall, faculty members were very good. A semester examination system was followed where every year consisted of 2 semester exams of 60 marks and 2 mid-semester exams in between containing 20 marks, also, there were marks for assignments and attendance.
