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.

Education quality is good .
Placements: The placement percentage in my course is below 50%. The highest and the lowest placement is 4 lac and 2 lac, respectively. But sometimes, there is no placement, so it can't be said exactly that if you are pursuing the course, you will get placed. Everything else is good.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average, and the hostel condition is very poor. Labs and classrooms need to be modified, and the library is quite small. The hostel is an old model, which needs improvement, and basic equipment in labs is also not available, which should be.
Faculty: You get well-qualified teachers who make your education better and are also supportive in nature. If you are attending regular classes, the semester exam will not be difficult for you. Your classes will be conducted regularly, and teachers will also helpful during exams.
Other: I opted for this course because it seemed to be a different field with some scope and less crowd. There are many more events and opportunities you will get through this course in this college.

Good college if you are looking for better facilities.
Placements: In BBA, any student who has secured 75 percent in their intermediate can apply for any course in this college. College doesn't offer any placement for regular course students, but there are few opportunities for vocational courses. Many recruiting companies also come to college on a regular basis. We have got internships from Internforte, Mahindra, and many more to come.
Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are quite good compared to other colleges of Patna University. They have well-maintained offices, grounds, and canteen. Hostel facilities are also good. The infrastructure of the hostel is something every student looks for, and even the mess food is good.
Faculty: Faculty members are good. They complete their courses within the given duration, and exams are held regularly on fixed dates. Events also take place almost every month, and girls really get a lot of opportunities to find themselves. Students have a good campus life with many engagements in dance, music, psychology, and other political teams.
Other: Choosing this course was completely my choice, and the college has justified it very well. Other than placements, students get a lot of other facilities, like participating in NCC and NSS programs. There are also sports events on a regular basis.
