The college has excellent faculty members but absolutely disappointed with the poor management.
Placements: The placement percentage of students in B.A. is very low. Rarely does any top company visits the campus for placement purposes. Students who are seeking good placement should not come to Elphinstone. The college has a tie-up with internshala. So, students are asked to register there for good internship opportunities.
Infrastructure: Elphinstone, being a heritage college, has a good infrastructure facility. But the classrooms are non-air-conditioned. The library is filled with an abundance of books and has a nice sitting space. Quality of the girls' mess food is above average and the canteen food is acceptable as well.
Faculty: Faculty members are good and teachers are quite helpful in our college. Students are given exposure and opportunities in the scholastic area. Teachers focus more on practical knowledge compared to theoretical. Semester exams are of average level and the pass percentage of students are approximately 96%.

Q:   Can students get selected at Elphinstone, Mumbai with 70-80 percentage in class 12th?

A: 

80% is a good score. In case you plan to get into a regular good college, the cut offs these days are higher. With 80% you might not get the course or college that you wish. Its high time, you start thinking about what education / career you get into.

Generally, most universities or colleges require students to have a minimum of 50-60% in their Class 12 exams to be eligible for undergraduate programs. However, some universities or colleges may have different percentage requirements for different courses.

But for EM it is very difficult to get into the college but try to get form any quota
