This college has great infrastructure and faculty.

Placements: The college does not have placement drives, but occasionally a top MNC will pick and choose students for paid internships. About 45% of students are hired for internships each year. Overall, the placement drive was not the best.

Infrastructure: Our college has great infrastructure, which is one of the reasons it attracts so many students who live nearby. It's located right in the city center, and the classrooms have high-quality smart boards and well-stocked libraries. Unfortunately, the Wi-Fi is not very reliable.

Faculty: The teaching staff at this college are super seniors in their departments, and almost every teacher holds a Ph.D. degree. Their teaching skills are above par, and the semester exams are difficult, with a pass percentage of 75%.

I don't like it. I would not recommend this college.

Placements: I'm still in my second year. Most of the recruiters are from small companies, with a few from large companies like Tata Consulting Services and Mahindra.

Infrastructure: The facilities at this college are not that good. The washrooms for male students are inadequate, and some classrooms don't have working projectors, so we have to switch classes to study. On the plus side, the library is huge, with over 30,000 books, and the canteen food is okay.

Faculty: The faculty at this college are very helpful. They are available during office hours to answer questions and address any concerns students may have. The course curriculum is relevant but challenging. Students must earn a passing grade in all courses with an overall average of more than 40%.

Other: I chose this course because I didn't know exactly what I wanted to major in. I thought this course would help me figure that out.

This college is the best college for all courses like BBA, BCA, & B.Com, and faculties are also good

The big name of North Karnataka .

Placements: Very bad placement opportunity at Gogte College of Commerce. Out of 450 students, only 10 get placed at TCS as an intern with a maximum package of 3.5 LPA. There is no compulsion to attend any campus placements. Only a set of MNCs show up for the program.

Infrastructure: Decent facilities provided by the college, not so extraordinary good. A good cafeteria with limited options, yet value for money. Decent washrooms on every floor, CCTV-equipped campus, decent quality of computer or IT labs. Walls can be repainted, and lift access should be provided.

Faculty: Not qualified staff or over-qualified staff. Faculty members have a lot of experience (on paper), but extremely average quality of education and a poor syllabus under the university. Staff should undergo some serious training programs for self-development or teaching.
