The academic faculties are highly qualified and best professional lectures with good rating to the college faculties ,Instead.There are 3 terms in a year, and about the 'term end exams', some of the subjects are very difficult to pass for some of the students. Also, if you can't pass a subject, you have to repeat the entire subject in the next term; there is no system like 'back exams' like other colleges.and overall faculty members helped for the students very much to get success.
