ST Xavier's Kolkata Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

Placements are significant as for B.Com (Hons) it's as good as 100%. Of course all the students don't apply but whoever applies more or less are placed in Federal Bank, Yes Bank, Genpact and Deloitte among various others. Last year's placements average were of 6 lakhs but it will rise as in four years i think the median will go up to 10 lakhs or so.

The placement cell of the college has personally influenced me to join this college because the course I've opted in does not provide a lot of placements and the market for the job is saturated so the chances of getting placed through in campus placements made my job easier as to select this college

Everyweek like on saturdays we have presentations where students have to put up presentations infront of the whole class helping them to overcome their stage fear. Difficulty level of paper is also moderate.

The professors here are approachable and they provide study materials to students which are circulated through informal groups of students which help a lot in the examinations. The gaps between examination is less which is quite problematic as it does not avail Students to go through the whole syllabus in the short span of time.

The curriculum is refined by NEP and it is nice. There are common topic in semester 1 with class 11,12 but some parts in accounts and the whole of LAW is something new and it is a bit challenging for us but if someone pays attention in classes then one would not face any problems. Teachers randomly ask questions from concepts they have taught and this makes us study and pay proper attention. The mid sem examination questions are from the things discussed in classes and notes provided by faculty.

Course curriculum is ofcourse relevant with the current start but if you planning to do something like FRM or CFA be aware that the course focuses mainly on accounting that is relevant for CA and CS. Teaching method is very theoretical which is a negative point. The college is still developing and leading towards new courses and ways of teaching which will take some time but is a plus point.

Now comes to curriculum That curriculum was very effective. Basically there every 10 to 12 days gaps there corporate giant's or some real world people came to college and getting seminar to their knowledgeable field

The course curriculum under nep is very rigid and the BcomH course of St. Xavier's College is considered as a tough course among students. The syllabus is vast and also the difficulty level of the examinations of this college is quite challenging.

The undergraduate placements of this college is good like the placements range from 6-8lakhs and the students are eligible for placements after the third year . The college provides placements . Reputed companies like earnest and young , Deloitte , KPMG, Google , Honda, hero , Mahindra , tata , reliance , adani and many other reputed companies . Highest package is 21 lakhs and lowest is 4 lakhs and the average being 7lakhs . Around 80% students get placed every year . The college also proved internship opportunities like the summer internship etc .

Bachelors in commerce has always encouraged me since my early high school days. The curriculum in St. Xavier's College, Kolkata, faculty makes us well versed with the course and prepares us to face the real world. The exam timings are relatively off. Because there are two batches, morning for boys and evening that's is coed. The exams are held in the morning and is very difficult for the evening people to attend and make it through. Where as the calculation and evaluation of exam papers is very strict.
