Hi-Tech Medical College and Hospital, Bhubaneswar.

Faculty: The administration is really strict towards academics. Frequent classes are conducted by experienced faculty members. All the professors are dedicated to their work. So, students study a lot in our college. College also is very strict towards students' attendance. It requires a minimum of 75% attendance to write the exams. Frequent one-on-one parent-teacher meetings are held, which help students who fail in any paper. It is strict but that's what makes us study.

Nimapara College Physical Science Review.

Faculty: Teachers are mostly from the state universities of the state. The curriculum is quite relevant, but it does not make the students industry-ready except for some of the placement courses. The semester exams are quite easy and can be passed easily by studying sometime before the semester exam.

College is really good in terms of education, and you'll even find lovable and entertaining friends.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, friendly, and brilliant. The semester exams are moderately difficult, and the grading is fair, with a passing percentage of 33% or 4 SGPA. In our major department, the teachers are especially motivating, encouraging students to do well both in college and in real life. Semester exams aren't too difficult if we start studying about a week before.

Gujarat University Cyber Security and digital forensics. Great experience and scope.

Faculty: The teachers are very knowledgeable and friendly, and they are very approachable and helpful. However, most of the faculty are research scholars who don't have a degree in education. They have less teaching experience, but they are very good in the field and have a great deal of knowledge. They try their best to make sure that we understand the material. The exams are medium to tough, and it is easy to pass but not easy to score very well. As a result, most students pass easily.

Utkal University - heritage and inside things.

Faculty: Facilities are highly qualified and knowledgeable, but they lack teaching methods, due to which it makes lectures boring. The curriculum is also outdated, and it doesn't make students industry-ready, due to which students suffer a lot. Semesters can be passed easily by studying overnight, and the questions are also known to us.

Great experiences builds great professions.

Faculty: There are 4-5 faculty members available in each department, such as Physics, Chemistry, Biology, etc., who teach the students about the subject matter. They are very approachable and are like role models for students. In a year, there are two semester examinations being held in the college, and in each semester, two internal examinations are given by the students. A very small number of students fail in these examinations, i.e., about 4-5 among 113 students. The examinations are very easy for th...

Faculty: I can't speak for other faculties, but our Zoology department has very good facilities. They help us every time and teach us many things outside our course. They properly guide us and help us in adapting to different situations by letting us experience it, like how to give a seminar or how to use technology. The faculty members are best.

College has good placement, best teachers, average campus, and hostel experience.

Faculty: Coming to the curriculum and studies, in my opinion, it's the best college. I don't think in other colleges they will teach like this. The chairman is very polite and his teaching style is top-notch. Our chairman, who teaches us C language, is a master in C. He has written more than 10 books and is also a good author. They also teach us subjects like reasoning and aptitude for competitive exams.
