The maximum number of students get placed in different companies like Amazon, Flipkart, Swiggy, Zomato, Google, HDFC Bank, and many more.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is really amazing. The library is huge, and buildings are fully air-conditioned. The college is full of plants and trees.

About Patna College for Women in Bihar.

Placements: The course does not have any sort of placements. It is just to earn a graduation degree and move forward with your career in the direction of any government exam or prepare for any teaching service. The choice is all upon a student's mind. Top roles offered in this course include teacher, professor, etc.

Infrastructure: Infra of the college is average, neither too bad nor too good. Facilities available include classes, library, a playground, etc. Sports and games are not much popular in the college. The quality of facilities is at par with our requirements. Food is not available in the mess.

Faculty: Faculty is helpful, qualified and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is fine. The course is curriculum relevant but it does not prepare students to become industry ready. Semester exams are not too difficult for students and they can pass in them easily.

About Patna Women;s College.

Placements: The course is BA History, so it is obvious that there was no placement in this course. Students pursue this course to go for government exams and pursue higher studies. One can prepare for exams such as UPSC, NDA, SSC, etc. while pursuing this course. It is just to get a graduation degree.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infra available were alright. Wifi was not there. Labs were not there for us but classrooms were present. A library was available with our course related books and we were able to go there whenever we needed to. All in all, the infra was nice.

Faculty: The teachers were helpful, qualified and knowledgeable enough. Teaching quality was fine. The course was not really curriculum relevant and thew students did not become industry ready. The semester exams were not too difficult to clear. We could prepare well for them.

Bihar National College: A Heritage

Placements: Being a student of Political Science Honors, one can pursue careers in civil services, law, political firms, lecturer roles, NGOs, and social work. The chances of placements are low because it is a traditional course, and there is also no chance for internships.

Infrastructure: It is a traditional course with classes available, and faculties are present every day in the department. There is Wi-Fi across the whole campus. The infrastructure is average, with a canteen, tennis court, basketball court, and badminton court, along with a library and common room for both boys and girls. We have hostel facilities for both girls and boys, but without a mess. There is a lack of access to electricity, safe drinking water, and sanitation facilities.

Faculty: The faculty has good knowledge of the subject, and the teaching quality is good. Exams are held annually, and one has to pay an exam fee of 700 to 750 INR. The passing percentage for exams is an aggregate of 45% in total. We have two honors papers in the 1st and 2nd years, and after the 2nd year, we have eight honors papers along with GK and GS, which is a passing paper. In the 1st and 2nd years, we have two subsidiary papers, which are also passing papers, along with a composition of 50 marks each; English and Hindi are passing papers too.

Other: I was a student of Political Science Honors. We read about politics and political institutions in society. One can pursue careers in civil services, law, and other political institutions, firms, and social work in NGOs. The course should offer some apprenticeships to improve job opportunities. One can also pursue this course through the Bihar student credit card.
