Placements: In my class, there are around 60 to 70 people. As of now, I am a student in the 2nd year. I don't know much about campus placements, but my seniors told me about placements before COVID-19. In these 2 years, I am not sure about the campus placements in college.
Infrastructure: In the college, there is a library in which we can get almost every book that we need. There is also a canteen in the college. There are sports competitions, cultural events, and more, like NCC, NSS, etc. There is a ground, and a parking area, and the rules and regulations are less.
Faculty: The faculty teaches well, but we have to concentrate. The faculty helps students by sending important questions and explaining each and every question twice, etc. The faculty is very strict regarding semester exams. As of now, there is no value for the degree.

Review of A. M Reddy Memorial college of pharmacy.
Placements: They are not providing any placements to Master of Pharma students. They just teach you on a syllabus basis and help you to pass out from the college, and they don't bring many companies to the campus. Very rarely we can see the campus drives over there. The percent for campus placement is low. Even if we get the job, the package is not more than 2 LPA.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure-wise, they recently developed a lot and also developed a playground for students. They recently constructed a waiting hall for visitors. Labs and classrooms are also well-ventilated and clean. The library is also there for the students. Hostel facility is also available, but it's not within the campus.
Faculty: Teachers' knowledge is good, but their way of expressing is not that much appreciable, mainly not for all, only some lecturers. Curriculum courses are not sure. Semester exams in the college are not that much difficult; we just concentrate on the content. The pass percentage is 90%.
Other: This college is near to my college, so I chose this one. And coming to the course, I am actually interested in another course, but I didn't get the seat in that course, so I chose this one.
