Best faculties; good books are provided for students, who are preparing for UPSC.

Faculty: Teachers are very good and knowledgeable. Exams are tough. If you want to get marks, you have to study hard. For exams, you have to study through the books.

Our college has knowledgeable faculty members, but it does not offer placements.

Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable and supportive by nature. They guide students regarding their futures. There are many courses, like B.Sc. in agriculture, computer courses, and technical courses, for students to get knowledge in their respective fields. Semester exams are not that tough, and the pass percentage is 85%.

NOU is the best open University.

Faculty: The teachers are so kind and helpful. They always try to treat us as their own. Their teaching style is excellent. The semester exams are so tough. Teachers guide us in a good manner. Semester exams are taken under cameras. The pattern of questions is repetitive.

It is a good way to get a degree, if you are pursuing any other course along with it.

Faculty: As an open university, its fee is lower, and the courses are just like in normal colleges. I suggest choosing this university only if you are willing to have another degree along with it because only then will it be worth it.

It is a good place for learning.

Faculty: The gender ratio of the male and female is somewhat 60:40. The interaction of the head of department and students is done on a regular basis while counseling classes. Students are allowed to contact the college administration through the website and given the phone number of department heads for any issues or complaints.

The placements are very good here.

Faculty: All the teachers here are very helpful and good in nature. Exams are more important here, and the value of the NOU exam is very high because the exam rules are very tough. The exam rules include title checking and numbering, which are very impressive.

It is the best option for those who are preparing for other competitive examinations.

Faculty: The faculty members have only one task throughout the year, that is to take counselling classes before the examinations. They don't teach the textbook in those classes, rather, they solve the doubts of students visiting them. The university offers a lot of courses.

It helps in distance learning, but course material, teachers and not having hostels may disappoint.

Faculty: Teachers are frequently changed and generally hired rather than appointed. So, it blocks the continuity of study somewhat. Teachers are average, and they are qualified but not the best. Printed books have many errors. Courses are relevant, but they can't surely make students industry-ready.

Really tough Course curriculum.

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.

The best open university in Patna.

Faculty: All study materials are sent through courier, and they send updates through SMS. Our teachers are quite knowledgeable and helpful. Approximately 10% of the students fail to clear exams. However, all the rest of the students qualify by quite positive scores. They also provide you with opportunities to get a job.

This University offer variety of courses, but faculty members are not good.

I'm satisfied as the college met all my expectations.

Faculty: The faculty members are knowledgeable, helpful, and it is very easy to approach them. Most of the classes are taken by the faculty members who have great experience in their field. The course curriculum is vast, and it covers almost everything that has been taught in other top colleges in India. The college doesn't provide any industry exposure.
