Satisfied with the course, its faculty, and the infrastructure.
Placements: In my batch, there were 101 students. Talking about placement, I will keep it in a poor category but else other things were good. There is a society called Disha placement cell. They provide you with the placements but I don't have much idea about their working.
Infrastructure: There is no wifi for students but labs are there, especially for the students who are taking science courses. And classrooms are pretty good and spacious as well. Some of the classrooms have air conditioners too. The library is also very spacious with 3-4 floors and you can find every book in it easily.
Faculty: The faculty was very good. Apart from some teachers, others were great and helpful as well. Semester exams are not very difficult. You need to study well and with some focus and you can score a decent percentage easily. Coming to me, I didn't put in a lot of effort but scored 75% .
Other: I chose this course because of my interest, which was developed in school days. Some things can become better but rest assured, everything is fine. Talking about events, college organized many events and one of them is the biggest fest of Delhi University called MECCA.
