Patna College IAS IPS Factor.
Placements: They give placement very well and in big companies, as well as with a good package. Students are regular, and almost the class is full of students. Teachers are so good that they teach us to clear the civil services exam. Most of the IAS and IPS officers of the country come from here. Even PM Modi has raised this.
Infrastructure: Very good, since all the needed facilities are provided by the institute. A little bit of strictness can be taken on hostellers, as they sometimes cause trouble in the institute. After all, everything is good; they have Wi-Fi and a library. The surroundings are also good, as there are many trees, plants, and flowers, which make the environment clean.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful. They clear all our doubts and teach us to clear the civil services exam. Exams are held on time, but sometimes, due to unavoidable situations, exams get late. But even after all this, the institute is too good, and students find it easy to pass hard semester exams with the teachers' help.

A summary of my college, Magadh Mahila .
Placements: Several companies have participated in Patna University placement drives. Notable recruiters include: Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), which conducted a BPS Campus Recruitment drive in May 2021; Reliance Retail Limited, which participated in a placement drive in July 2021; and eClerx, which conducted a placement drive for MBA/BBA/M.Com/B.Com students.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the B.Com department is not so good, like we haven't got the smart classroom, and the teacher teaches us on the blackboard. Due to using a lot of chalk and dust, their hands have become rough and their skin damaged. Patna University provides hostel accommodation with essential amenities, including meals. There's an overview of the food quality, menu, hostel registration process, affordability, and information on localities for off-campus housing. Meal Inclusions: Hostel mess facilities offer both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, providing three meals a day.
Faculty: The teachers are all very good and they focus on every student. The teaching quality of the teachers is very good and we understand everything easily. They set the moderate exam papers, which are not very hard to solve and not very easy to solve. Two semesters are conducted within a year.
Other: The B.Com (Bachelor of Commerce) degree provides foundation knowledge in commerce, finance, and accounting, which is essential for careers in business, banking, or professional courses like CA, CS, or CMA. The course offers a range of subjects, such as accounting, economics, business law, and taxation, allowing students to explore various career paths. Graduates can easily transition into postgraduate courses like M.Com, MBA, or professional certification.
