Genuine review about my college

Admission:

My admission process is based on my cut-off marks achieved in my board examination. After completing and getting my marks in the 12th exam, I decided to join engineering. But my aim is to join a mechanical engineering course since my cut-off marks are less I got only electrical and electronic engineering in this college.
