My college is very helpful in my career.
Placements: I didn't apply for campus placement because I wanted to pursue further studies. However, students become eligible for placement starting in the 7th semester. Each year, 100 to 200 companies visit the campus and 95 to 99 percent of the students get placed. The highest package offered is 40 LPA, and the average package is 6-7 LPA.
Infrastructure: The campus is very open and airy, with lots of space to roam and relax. There are two gardens, one for girls and one for boys, and four toilets, two for each gender. The canteen is always open, and there are plenty of chairs and tables in the gardens. The library is a great place to study, and it's a very good campus.
Faculty: There are enough faculty members in the college to attend every class, and most of them are very friendly and helpful. The exams are easy to pass if we study well.

Almost Satisfaction and the worst Experience of this college.
Placements: Honestly, not much placements are offered in this college, especially for our course B.Sc. In computer Science). Only about 2-3 courses will be there in our college which get placements continuously I. e B.Com BCA BBA etc. The placements are offered by less known companies and packages are also average or sometimes below average.
Infrastructure: If we talk about the infrastructure of our course, then I would say it is the worst. Emphasis is given only on theoretical studies. No one care about practical experience there. Scheduling of our all the lectures of the course is even worse. Now if we talk about the hostels of our college, then feels is higher with poor infrastructure.
Faculty: Only about 2% of the faculty of our college is helping towards the students otherwise rest of the faculty generally don't care about students. For the preparation of the upcoming exams, house tests ( MST - mid semester tests ) have been organised every semester, which is pretty good idea for the preparation of exams.
Other: Honesty I made a mistake by choosing this course in this college. The worst thing is the schedule and timings of our lectures of this course. It becomes very tough for the students who come to college from far away. They always miss their lectures just because of the poor schedule of the course.

A great place to study and achieve skills for society.
Placements: There are numerous placements in many multinational companies, and around 40%-35% of students are really happy with this strength. Some are managers, some are employees, but many have opened their businesses. That's a great thing that entrepreneurs are coming out of college.
Infrastructure: Old look but great, with a lot of classrooms. There is Wi-Fi all over campus and separate hostels for boys and girls. There's a library too with two floors and a plethora of books that are issued on a card basis. The campus is divided into four parts across a road.
Faculty: The staff is quite helpful but as strict as needed in exams. Although teaching helps many students, mid-term exams in every semester are a way to prepare for the upcoming final term exams by GNDU board. If anyone skips or fails, it is fine.
Other: There are a few fests on campus due to shortage of space, but a lot of events take place regularly. There are also NCC and NSS camps inside as well as outside the campus. It's a big thing of enjoyment and learning for students.

The hostel has great infrastructure and provides healthy food. Many tournaments are held in the hostel.
Faculty: We have well-qualified faculty members who have great experience. Their teaching methods are very good. The semester is not tough if students follow teachers' guidelines and attend all classes. The course is relevant for further and makes students industry-ready.
Other: I chose this course because it has a potential in future. Every new day in our college is with new learning. As of now, countless events and fests are held here. Academic, cultural, social, and entrepreneurial events are held in our college. Different communities are here which organise all events.

Not as good as a good atmosphere; discipline is there but not practical.
Placements: Only 2–3 percent of students take part in placements in college. Not many top companies visit this college. Average package is 1.5 Lacs to 3 Lacs maximum. There is not much role in other fields; only IT companies and some other companies visit. It's normal, not much.
Infrastructure: The library's in-college infrastructure is good, but not all varieties are available in college. Daily newspapers come to be read. Food is also not as good, but it's normal to eat. Some sports are there, like badminton and volleyball. One medical room is there.
Faculty: Teachers are good but not as well qualified as PhD's teachers. Teaching in a good atmosphere is good. Not all facilities are available; only bookish language is used, and not much practical work is done. Pass percentages are 80 percent.
