Teaching techniques are the best with real-life examples which makes the course more interesting.

I am satisfied enough with all the facilities and faculty members of the college.

Placements: Placements are moderate here, and companies like TCS and Wipro recruit students for internships. Very fewer students are placed but with a good salary package. As majority students of the college devoted to CA course here, placements do not draw much attention.

Overall, our college performance, faculty members and placements are good.

Placements: Names of students who score above 65% of marks in academics are mentioned in the merit list. It also depends on board. There is no assurance to have placements.

Satisfied with the college as I am pursuing CA side by side.

Placements: Actually, no one was placed from my course from my college. No placement took place. Generally, there is very less placement from my college. There are a very few companies which might turn out for placement. So the question of the percentage of students does not arise and the same goes with the package offered.

There is no negative remark in our college everything that I have experience in our college.

Placements: As I am in 2nd year, I don't know much about placements. However, we got to know from our seniors and staff that many companies visit our campus for placements and offers a salary package of 2 LPA. Placements in our college are very good. Hence students can join this college. I scored 80% in 12th standard through WB Board. The college and exam conducted are very good. It is very flexible for students.

Absolutely dissatisfied because of the faculty. I could have done much better, but I am happy.

Placements: I don't know much about the placements, and very few students get placed. The highest salary offered in our batch was Rs. 15,000 per month. The top recruiting company was TCS. You should not join this college if you are here for placements. Most of the students here pursue CA, so no one cares about placements. Moreover, if you have good grades, search for other options. There is no scope for internships.

It is the best college ever, and anyone can get it.

Placements: Placements are based on your academic performance and ability. Companies like Wipro and IBM-Concentrix visited the college for the placement. I have been selected from both and was confused to choose, however, our faculty helped me a lot. As we all know, Wipro and IBM have set a global mark in working industries. Many of my friends have also been selected and placed in the best industries of that era.

It is an average college for commerce.

Placements: There are no campus placements available. In many websites, they show that they have good placement cell, but in reality, they don't have a single placement cell. Companies will never visit the campus for offering a job. It would be great if they had given scholarship to students, but unfortunately, they do not have any such plans yet.

A good learning experience, got what I expected.

Placements: The college had made some arrangements for placements, but basically, after B.Com not a lot of students take up jobs. So it did not matter much. They had made some arrangements in TCS. But still, it was not opted for by many of the students. Placements were not my aim so it did not matter much.
