    Academics

    I was doing my masters in botany and the teaching quality was not good at all. It was a step down from my UG college and the curriculum was not the best. There was still a lot I did not know when I passed out and started applying for positions in research institutes.

    College Infra

    There was no internet enabled on the premises but classrooms had smart boards. The labs were well stocked and library just about decent in the collection of academic books. The premises were well maintained.

    Campus Life

    The location was quite remote and there was nothing to do after college hours. It felt unsafe in the evenings and the staff would turn a blind eye if a situation arose. There are however measures in place to handle emergency situations.

    Placements

    There was no system in place for placing students and everyone basically moved on to research careers by writing to mentors in institutes across the country. If you did not get in anywhere, you basically had to wait a long time to try again. College did not provide any support in this.

    Value For Money

    It was about 50 thousand rupees per year and definitely not worth that amount. The quality of education was not great and they weren't very encouraging for extracurricular activities. The professors were not approachable. It was very marks oriented instead of learning oriented.
