Admission:

I in total applied for 11 college, 5 for journalism and mass communication, 2 for English Hons, and 4 for geography honours. But my main goal subject was to get admission for journalism and mass communication in Ashutosh college, but i didn't get my name on their list ( i was 100 names behind in the list ) and the other 10 college i got my name, so i reasearchd a little about which could be the best among the other 10 college's, and during that time, i was in fear what if i didn't get addmission anywhere at last so i got admission in vidyasagar college for studying geography honours, and finally i realised APC college is the best college for J&MC. Their wasno eligibility test for getting addmission in APC college, if you get your name on their name list you just have have to pay the addmission fees, and the 1st semester fees amd then you can get direct admission. They make atleast 5 list of names, it's not very difficult to get in but if your marks are less than 70% it can get hard a little bit.

Admission:

I applied to Surendranath Women's college, Vidyasagar College, Gokhale Memorial and Acharya Prafulla Chandra College. Amongst that I chose this college because of the NAAC A grade rating and along with the factory that the college is very near to my place. I got accepted into the other colleges but this seemed like an easier approach to me , because along with my course, which is very time consuming I'd rather have a college near my place. The admission process was not that difficult. I applied on the online portal, uploaded the documents. Saw my name on the list and went for the admission procedure on the nearest cyber cafe. As I was done with the documents and payment I went to the college for a stamp and there I was granted my admission. The cutoff marks were above 60% for my course and of course in higher secondary.

Acharya Prafulla Chandra College Kolkata: 1 Answered Question

Can I get admission in Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray Polytechnic College in Jadavpur? I'm just a 10 pass and I didnt take the Jexpo examination?

Neha Rani
Soumyo Sengupta,studied Civil Engineering at Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray Polytechnic College (2021)

No, you cannot get admission in Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray Polytechnic College

It is really impossible to expect to get admission in a top notch  Government Polytechnic college without having to sit for any entrance exams.

Let me inform you that to get into APC Ray Polytechnic College, which is considered to be the best college for polytechnic in West Bengal, you will need a rank within 500 for core engineering streams.

One of my friends is studying there in Civil Engineering by scoring a rank of 427 from the general category through Jexpo.
