Infrastructure: The classroom is nice but it's a little bit small but 70 students can occupy the room and more. The wi-fi facility is available in all the classrooms and all around the campus. Since I am a day scholar student, I don't have a clear idea about hostels, but it is nice, as my friends said that the hostel rooms are nice.
Faculty: Yes, the teachers in this college are well educated and they are so friendly. Students can approach the teachers easily for any clarifications. The exams in this college are moderate, which means they are not too easy and, at the same time, not that tough. If we study and put in some hard work, we can easily crack the exams.
