First of all, let me say that this is not a technical institution. There aren't any companies coming to offer you jobs with high salaries. And that is expected, since this is a purely academic institution providing graduation as well as post-graduation degrees in various fields of knowledge. For me the chosen field was Physics, and I studied here from 2010 to 2013, earning my Bachelor's degree as well as the beautiful, unforgettable experience of being a part of a 150 year old institution, one of the most prestigious in the country. The ratings are already given, though don't pay attention to industry exposure, placements (which aren't applicable) or hostel facilities (which I have no experience of). The other scores are from my completely honest perspective. The college provides the best infrastructure and perfect ambiance for the pursuit of knowledge. It's not lacking in anything, from beautifully furnished classrooms and auditoriums to fantastic laboratories and a truly majestic library having an extensive collection to give wings to your thoughts and your imagination. The college focuses on a healthy balance between curriculars and extra-curriculars; giving students the chance to participate in a wide range of cultural and social activities arranged by different departments and student clubs. Despite being non-residential, the college has a sprawling playground, adjacent to the iconic places for gathering and discussions: the canteen and the legendary Green Benches. The faculty in my department was comprised by professors who were not only highly distinguished and accomplished in their fields but could also make us students think and ask questions, thereby forming a deeper understanding and above else, a sense of enduring love and fascination for the subject. Those pursuing courses in pure science must recognize the formation of such bonds as a necessary prerequisite to achieving excellence in their chosen courses. For those pursuing graduation courses, I can honestly say that this college will provide you an experience which is as close to perfection as possible. The strict discipline and the manifold rules will only serve to strengthen your foundations and to help you grow as an individual as well as a member of society. And you will surely carry with you the memories you gain, for the rest of your days.
