Good facilities on the entire basis.

Placements: 3 to 4 students got placed. The trending topics or courses. The top companies do recruit our college students. 60 to 70 percent of the students completed internships in regional tech hubs, data start-ups L&T, TVS, Verizon, and local data analytics agencies.

Good facilities and contacts.

Placements: At least 30-35 percent of students got placed and the package is pretty good like 3 LPA-7 LPA. Infosys is the top recruiting company and all students get internships in media companies. The college has a good name in public so even if we don't get placed in college we'll get a good job outside.

Average course, unless you are extremely proactive. Placements for microbiology are below average.

Placements: The placements for other course students are very nice. But there are no particularly good opportunities for microbiology students, in my opinion. There are only 3 people in my class who get placed. The highest package is 5 LPA, and the lowest is 2.5 LPA. There are no particular biotech companies, but only random companies offering jobs such as gym trainers, health trainers, and teacher positions.

There is a good college in Chennai that is the best way for students’ future.

Placements: They conduct job fairs once a year. 50+ companies come and provide jobs, and students get placed. Additional courses are also available in the college. Recently, the 25th silver jubilee was conducted. They conduct more events to develop skills and training for students. Most students show interest in joining this college. In this college, students are now settled in their lives with good salaries.

Good college for academics.

Placements: Before entering this college, I came with an expectation that top companies like Deloitte and Cognizant would come to campus but in the last 2 years no such companies came. I am disappointed. Also they give a starting salary of Rs. 15,000 for a B.Com student. If you're choosing WCC for campus placements that is a big disappointment.

Honest review of Madras Christian College.

Placements: According to what I have seen, not many students have received good packages or strong placements. Placements mostly revolve around commerce departments. I have not seen placements in my department. There are internship drives organized by the college, various departments, and the MCC MRF Innovation Club.
