Really tough Course curriculum.
Placements: There is no such opportunity provided. There is no internship opportunity. It is an open university so logically there is no such chance either. And I don't think even in future there will be any of such kind of thing will be available. So it will be much better if you will look on your own for the jobs.
Infrastructure: This is an Open University, So the studies are more of "distance learning programme" than a brick and mortar college. However, you should really know the offices as this will be really helpful in filling the form as well as knowing the dates. As you may sometime require to fill the form in a real hurry.
Faculty: This is a distance learning programme so there is no question of faculty members. The course curriculum is very standard and really tough. Notes are available in the market. Books are too available which is very detailed. I will suggest going with the notes.
Other: A tip from my side: More than 50% of student fail in the examination. Not more than 15% of student get the 1st division. So you should know by this that curriculum is really tough. So I will suggest you to start studying early even if you are reading from notes. You are not going to get good marks even if you will write what is written in the notes.
