The infrastructure needs to be upgraded.

Placements: About 70% of students are available in our course. The salary package is not given to the students. This college does not provide any recruitment. They let us know future plans but they don't provide internships or placements. The HOD of the psychology department is good, and she will let us know about the places for internships.

Infrastructure: There is no Wi-Fi in the college for the students. In computer labs, computers do not even work properly. The science lab is average. In classrooms, fans do not work properly. The library is good but less spacious. The hostel is not provided by the college. The gymkhana is available on the 7th floor, and there is no campus in the college.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and well-experienced. They all are PhD holders in their specific subjects. The course curriculum is not relevant, and it does not make students industry-ready and students need to do it by themselves. Semester exams are slightly tough and the passing mark is 40.

Other: I joined the psychology course which has very good and knowledgeable teachers. They also take us for field visits. In the future, I want to do criminology. The college should improve the infrastructure and professors should be more polite. The event is done in the classrooms as there is no space and campus in the college, it's just a building.

RJ College has truly exceeded my expectations.

Placements: I'm really pleased with the placement support provided by my college. The placement cell is proactive and works hard to connect students with top companies. They organize workshops and mock interviews that really help us prepare for the job market. I appreciate how they keep us informed about various opportunities and provide personalized guidance. Thanks to their efforts, I felt confident during the recruitment process and secured a great position.

Infrastructure: The college cafeteria is a great spot to grab a bite between classes. The variety of food options is impressive, catering to different tastes and dietary preferences. The meals are not only delicious but also reasonably priced, making it convenient for students. The seating area is spacious and comfortable, providing a nice atmosphere to relax and socialize with friends. Overall, it's a welcoming place that enhances the college experience!

Faculty: I had a great experience with the faculty, curriculum, and exams in my course. The professors are really knowledgeable and always willing to help, making learning enjoyable and engaging. The curriculum is well-designed, balancing theory with practical applications, which has helped me grasp the concepts better. The exams are fair and test our understanding effectively, pushing us to think critically. Overall, I feel well-prepared and supported throughout my studies!

Other: The only thing which I wanted to be there in my college is a football team.

Pros and Cons of Joining Wilson College.

Placements: There are no placement opportunities offered in my course. Students mostly have to find internships by themselves. The college does not have a placement cell for Psychology so there aren't any opportunities. Professors did share resources but they were very limited.

Infrastructure: I have not lived in the hostel so I cannot comment on that. My classroom didn't have many facilities. We did have a psychology lab which had the required equipments but it was average. Our libraries weren't convenient as there was no system to just pick out a book and read. But rather forms had to be filled and books would be given the next day.

Faculty: Some teachers are qualified and knowledge whereas the majority teachers are not good enough. Most just read through their notes and don't make the subject interesting. The course curriculum is relevant but it can be better. The course can have more practical experiments, group projects and better assignments for the overall development of a student. The semester exams aren't very difficult. Majority students clear exams.

Other: I love psychology and I want to pursue Psychology later on in my life and hence I chose this course. The course is interesting and I loved studying Social Psychology. It would be better if we had better assignments and experiments rather than very outdated ones. I didn't like the crowd. The people weren't very welcoming and there was favouritism and groupism quite a bit. I MET better people in my third year. There are many extra curricular activities for those interested .

Review of G.N. Khalsa College.

Placements: For B.A. students, there are no on-campus placements provided. Students have to find the placements on their own. College does not provide placement opportunities on campus for courses like B.A. So, students have to look after placements at their own risk.

Infrastructure: Course is quite relevant and provides a good opportunity, only if we know our future goals. College does not provide hostel facilities, so we need to figure out the accommodation on our own.

Faculty: Exams are conducted quarterly each year. Since the course is for three years, exams are conducted 6 times throughout the course. Each semester will have external exams for 75 marks and internals for 25 marks. In the first year, we have all the subjects. In the second year, we need to choose two subjects. In the last year, there is only one subject which is required for our degree.

Andrews is an okay college with good studies. Teachers are really good, that's the main thing.

Placements: Nothing, it's just simple. There are 200 students in one course, there are many courses they provide, but with some pay. There's no highest, lowest, or options in the courses. No placement. It's just normal with subjects, and you have to choose the subjects once it's chosen. You can't change it in the first year, and in degree college (FY), you get options to choose.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are okay, only fans, no ACs. We were taught through projectors. No fest, maybe next time. It's a Catholic college, so in the month of December, you get fun things to do. The canteen has limited stuff and is expensive. Sports day happens. The campus is also long, and a flea market is organized with stalls.

Faculty: Teachers are the best. Papers for the exams are set in a pretty good way, neither too easy nor too hard. There are 2 semesters every year, each worth 100 marks. If you attend lectures, it will be really easy to pass the exam because the teachers are very good. If your motive is to just study, get a course, and do a Master's ahead, it's sorted.

Other: The crowd is good, there are activities, but no college fest. Andrews should bring 6 major psychology courses.

The college has its merits and demerits.

Placements: More or less, the internships are with Stanly Morgan, but the departmental internships are not up to par. It's better to find your own internships via LinkedIn. It is said that the companies are in plenty, but that feels like a lie. Overall, just because of the name, you can get placements wherever you want.

Infrastructure: There are no ACs, but the overall infrastructure is nice. The projector works fine. The Gymkhana is nice, and the sports in college are plentiful. The library has its own vibe; it feels like you are studying in Hogwarts, but the books are outdated in many aspects. The lending and reference libraries are two different libraries.

Faculty: It's more theoretical. It would be more practical to have real-life field visits, but the college doesn't have that. It gives you a better understanding of how real life works. Most of the faculty hired are real-life working professionals, and their insights help a lot.

Other: The fests are plentiful, but after a while, it feels forced to participate to earn ECC points.
