Verified Review

Academics

Almost all the teachers are Ph.D. holders, and some are pursuing their Ph.D.s. They give us practical knowledge too. The exams are average, not too tough or not too easy. As I can say, a student can score a CGPA of more than 7 if attends lectures carefully and understands the concepts. And if you want to score, you have to practice, as practice makes a man perfect.
