I am dissatisfied with the campus and faculty.

Placements: No placement or internship as per your choice. College is not going to provide any sort of internship facilities. You have to apply outside for internships of your choice, and apart from that, own. There is no placement is also there from the college. I am very dissatisfied from this thing.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is okay and not like any big university. There are no Wi-Fi facilities, but the classrooms are okay, with a library and a lab. But there is no canteen, food, mess, or any other facilities are zero. There are no sports or nothing. It is very boring to study here.

Faculty: Faculty members are okay, knowledgeable, and have good skills, but way of teaching varies from each one of them. It is up to you how you grab the fundamentals. No complaints are taken into consideration or acted upon, so you have to study on your own.

Other: Value for money is okay, but there are no functions, only freshers.

Searching for a successful beginning.

Placements: In our course, 70% of students are placed. The lowest package is 3-4 LPA, and the highest is 10-15 LPA. We are working in a medical or health center. 80% of students got internships through the college, and the faculty also helps and supports the students with their internships.

Infrastructure: Our college has a beautiful library that contains more than 1000 books from awarded authors. We also have the facility to study 1 to 2 hours extra after classes, and teachers help in finding the best books and provide us with well-designed notes.

Faculty: Teachers help us to study well and arrange many awareness programs and functions to help us get extra knowledge beyond what is in the books. They also give us suggestions for notes and online classes to gain extra knowledge.

Other: I chose this course to help people and to take care of patients. This gives us blessings that are worth more than money.

Joining this college is highly recommended by me.

Placements: Here, placement is not so good, you have to develop your skills and maintain a good grade for your placement, but your certificate, which you will get from the college, has topmost priority if you go for an off-campus job. Hence, your grade and skill matter for your job.

Infrastructure: They provide better hostels than other government colleges, and their room are quite good. Their mess is also very good, provides best food, and they maintain hygiene very well. Overall, a good college.

Faculty: They conduct exams regularly and also give very good marks if you have written something about the topic. Here, the faculty is very good. They provide courses with great facilities and support you in your respective courses.

Other: Very good college. They also conduct a freshers' party for the freshers group. Also, there are many programmes every year, but here politics is one of the main reasons not to join.

Good college. Stay away from politics.

Placements: As it is a government college, placements are very average. This year, only Macloids and Aurobindo Pharma visited our college. The highest package offered was 2.5 LPA, and the lowest package offered was 1.7 LPA. There are no internships provided by the company. Mostly, students are placed in different production units in the pharma industry.

Infrastructure: The library is good, and all types of pharmacy and technology books are available. Labs are spacious and have all the apparatus used in the industry. The hostel is good, and Wi-Fi is available all over the campus. There are a cricket ground, a volleyball court, and a badminton court present. Mess food is average.

Faculty: Faculty members are good. They are highly educated and experienced. They use simple language, which is easy to understand. The course curriculum is good, it makes us ready for the industry.
