First of all, I went to Sreebudha College over St Thomas College. But I didn't like the infrastructure and the atmosphere condition of that college well. These two colleges are near to my home. So I compare these two colleges with the pros and cons, academic level, faculty level, and placement level so I choose St. Thomas College at last.
