I would like to recommend this college to everyone.
Placements: I graduated from this college during the lockdown, so I don't know much about placements. However, I did hear from my seniors that the college does provide placements. They even require students to do an internship as part of the curriculum. The package isn't much for B.Com graduates. It's around INR 10,000 per year.
Infrastructure: The classrooms are clean and well-organized, and the library has almost every book you could want, plus computers. The food in the canteen is good, and the medical facilities are good as well, with a special nursing room. The sports facilities are good as well, and they recently expanded the sports area to include a gym and facilities for all kinds of sports.
Faculty: The teachers were very helpful and treated us like we were still in school. They solved all our problems and provided special help to students who were struggling. The course is relevant and prepares students for the workplace. While no exams are easy, if we study hard, we won't find them difficult.
Other: I would like to add more events. As this college mostly focuses on studies, not much in enjoyment, but they should do provide such things also.

I am disappoint with most of the facilities but they have an okay atmosphere .
Placements: 20 percent of the students were placed in my course, and the highest was 1.2 LPA rupees. there were no well known recruits out there, and I wasn't offered a placement, so I don't know much about the placements part, but studying at St. Xavier's gives you a better reputation .
Infrastructure: The facilities weren't the best, as there were very dirty toilets, most of the classroom projectors never worked, and it was a messy environment. Overall, there is a lot of scope for improvement, and I know they can improve on this, and there are a lot of classrooms and books in the library.
Faculty: Not all the teachers were helpful, as they would only teach the students that were scoring well and being attentive, and they used to not give attention to the weak students like me. The first semester was too hard, and the pass percentage was precisely 97 percent.
Other: I chose this course as I wanted to learn more about accounting, but I kept failing, so I dropped out in between, and now I'm doing a different course, and I wish they would give us more events, a shorter period, and a longer interval, as no one could eat anything as the canteen was full of rushes and had fewer items of food.

My honest review on my college.
Placements: Students should have above 50% in their 12th grade to get admission in this B.Sc. course. Since placements are not offered on campus, no companies visit the college for recruitment. Students need to apply for jobs on their own, such as through government job websites, as the college does not provide placement assistance.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is awesome, with no vacant spaces on campus. High-speed Wi-Fi is available for everyone to use. The labs are also good for practicals, and the classroom sizes are suitable, accommodating approximately 70 to 80 students. The library is well-equipped with all facilities, and all the necessary books are available.
Faculty: The teachers are absolutely amazing; they encourage students to reach their goals. The teaching methods are great, and it’s up to the students how they choose to study. All the teachers are well-qualified. While the college exams are certainly competitive, it depends on the students' preparation. If students study well, the exams will be manageable, but if they don’t study, the exams will be difficult.
Other: I chose this course because I want to become a professor in college. The events at the college are awesome, with every festival being celebrated. The students are also great!

South Goa Law college honest review.
Placements: The college does not provide placements. The college has a committee for placement, but unfortunately, it is not functioning. However, the college has tried with various legal professionals, and thus the students get help to secure internships under some of the well-known advocates.
Infrastructure: The college is a 5-storey building with lift facilities available. The college has a moot court hall, which is one of the best moot court halls in India. The college provides Wi-Fi facilities and a huge library with plenty of resourceful books. The college, however, does not provide hostel facilities.
Faculty: The college provides various courses, including B.A. LL.B., L.L.B., etc. There are 5 subjects per semester and 2 semesters every year.

Other: The course of B.A. LL.B. is quite good and thrilling. It explores the various dynamics of law and legal professions and prepares a student for the competitive legal world.
