Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What to do after JEE Main session 2 result?

Candidates preparing for IITs are only required to appear for the JEE Advanced entrance exam after qualifying JEE Main. Students who who secure above the 98th percentile in JEE Main 2024 Session 2 should start preparing for JEE Advanced 2025 immediately. Those who score between 95th and 98th percentile should focus on improving their JEE Main score by taking multiple mock tests and practicing previous year's question papers. By analysing their strengths and weaknesses, candidates can identify their areas of proficiency and topics where they need improvement. If they can achieve full marks in their practice sessions, they can start preparing for JEE Advanced. However, if they cannot score full marks, it is recommended that they appear for multiple mock test series for more practice.

By gaining skills, we can win.

Placements: Nearly 2 to 3 percent, but it depends on how many students join the training and placement. TCL, Infosys, Saint Gobain, solar companies are recruiting. Nearly 6 LPA to 10 LPA are offered by those companies. GATE-related advice, even coaching from any faculty, is provided.

Infrastructure: We have India's first and the largest chemical engineering lab in our department. The library is open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. for student availability. I am a day scholar, but I went to meet my friends in the hostel. Without security or warden permission, we can't enter the hostel. I also had food from the hostel canteen. Good food is provided by them according to the menu. No worries about food, Wi-Fi, rooms, or students. Student activities are monitored by wardens. Separate hostels for boys and girls. We have two canteens outside the hostel. Many sports and festivals are conducted. The famous festival from our college is the Rejour festival.

Faculty: In our department, faculty members from IIT, IISc, and good knowledge professors are present. We never had guilt about asking anything we needed. Our professors are like our friends and parents. They also teach discipline along with studies. Proper haircut for boys and a presentable dress code are strictly followed.

Other: The best thing is we have less competition, less syllabus, fewer labs, and less stress too. I enjoy my life and my course at PEC. Our professors conduct 25 talks (lectures from different IIT or industrial professors for our knowledge). Good career guidance is given by our faculty members.

The infrastructure is average, and faculty are good, but the placements are disappointing.

Placements: Nearly 50% of students in the chemical department got placed in 2022. Most of the students got placed in IT companies. Top recruiters are TCS, Cognizant, Kantar, Kaar Technologies, Neilson IQ, etc. Internships are not provided in the college, and we have to explore outside the campus for internships.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not good. But the classrooms are spacious, and labs are available in every department. Wi-Fi is available in the college, but the network connection is poor. Airtel, Jio, etc., won't work here. BSNL is the only better option. Hostel rooms are average, and the mess is not up to the mark. Taste is not acceptable. Games and sports are conducted every year.

Faculty: All the faculty members have at least 10 years of experience, and all are Ph.D. holders. They are well-educated. Most of them are from top educational institutions. The curriculum is good and helps students learn more about their core subjects. Exams conducted here will test the capacity of students and bring out the reality of students.

Other: We have scholarship opportunities. Extracurricular activities are conducted throughout the course.

Extracurricular Activities are upto the mark. Infrastructure is average. Average placement history.

Placements: Nearly 40-45% of students got placed in companies. There were fewer companies which offer jobs relating to the core. The highest package offered in chemical departments is 7LPA, and the average package is nearly 3-4LPA only, which is too disappointing. Recruiting companies like TCS, Zoho, and MBit will come for recruitment.

Infrastructure: Network signal is not available on the college premises. This is extremely irritating, especially when we need it for class. Wi-Fi is available, but only in small radius around the router. Classrooms are spacious, which is a plus. However, coming to the hostel, we cannot expect much. The food is not great and it is difficult to sustain on what they provide. Sports and games are the only satisfying things here. However, the only problem is that some departments do not have proper kits for some sports and games, like cricket and football.

Faculty: There are average to poor faculty for all subjects except momentum transfer and mass transfer. I was most disappointed with thermodynamics. Almost all students passed in the previous year's batch (2022).

Other: Events and fest were conducted more and more where we can reduce our stress levels. Many events like Cybrus, Rejoiur, hubs were conducted every year.

I am not satisfied with all teaching faculty members in our college.

Placements: Placements in our college are average. Some good companies visit our college to hire students from chemical engineering course. The good and average percentage of the students from our course get placed every year at the college.

Infrastructure: Our college has a good infrastructure. Our college also provides Wi-Fi facility. The mess facility is very good, and they maintain hygiene in a very good manner. Our college also organises good games. The canteen facility is also available in the college.

Faculty: The teaching staff members in our college are good. Some teachers are very good, but some teachers are not good at teaching. They are good and very talented. They also make students industry-ready. The course curriculum is relevant.
