The quality of the hostel facilities is good too. We have study rooms and can even go to the library till 12. Medical facilities are good too. Consultation with the doctor is free and 24-hour service is there. We have a sports complex that provides most sports training, but you need to pay a small amount.
Faculty: Yes, the faculty here is too good. They are friendly and they have good knowledge about their subject. They'll be available from 9-5 daily except Sunday for doubt clearance. For difficulty in exams, I would say it's easy to medium, but it would depend on your preparation. The pass percentage is 65.
Other: Aerospace is my field of interest. The best thing is we are able to do practical work instead of just theory. Like even in our first semester, we made a powered glider. I don't have anything to say as improvement as of now. Events take place frequently here, releasing us from our stress. The crowd is too much here. For extracurricular activities, it's the best.
