The question is a bit vague as you did not mention the criteria or the branch for comparison so I will offer my neutral reviews.
Usually one considers parameters like curriculum, infrastructure, fees, placement, and brand name. Also, your skills and knowledge by the end of 4 years affect your rate of employability. One needs to have excellent industry connections and the tag of a good college to make him employable. That being said, Galgotias has a slight advantage over Amity as it has better placements and industry connections.
Ultimately I will say that if you have no financial constraints, go for Amity but if you want to earn your placement go for Galgotias.
