How is life of abesec Abesec?

Living at ABES EC in Ghaziabad is an experience that blends both personal and academic growth. It's not just about the college or you individually; it's the combination of both that shapes your time there. As a soon-to-be graduate who commutes daily, I've enjoyed my time based on my expectations and what I consider fun.

The campus has everything you might need. You'll meet new people, share stories, and make memories. Some folks might criticize the college and its vibe, but remember, you're part of that environment, and it transforms with you. The great thing about this place is that you can find your interests and explore them.

There are rules, and they can be strict, but I've seen classmates adjust and pursue their passions. Being an engineering college, it's expected that you'll develop multiple skills, even if you start with just a few. The first year might be challenging, but once you enter your department in the second year, things get more enjoyable. The college offers a variety of facilities for academics, extracurricular activities, and events. If something's missing, you have the chance to create it. Academics are a priority here, which is why this question comes up, and it's the balance of studies and activities that defines the college.

While ABES EC may not be the top college, if you find yourself there and complain, the issue might be more with you than the institution. It's about what you've done to get there. For hostelers, life is even cooler. They enjoy more freedom, friends become like family, and they form lasting bonds. They spend sleepless nights playing games, discussing issues, and cramming before exams. You might meet some difficult people, but they'll become part of your circle, and you'll share a special connection with them.

Ultimately, your life at this college is what you make of it. There are positives and negatives, but it's up to you to either adapt or make changes. And just so you know, I'm sharing my honest experience from the last three years, without any incentive.

If you're aiming high, Abesec might not be the most thrilling place. Life there can be a bit quieter compared to other colleges in the same category, and here’s why:

• You need to maintain a 75% attendance.
• There are a lot of classes on the schedule.
• Hostel rules are pretty strict about when you can come and go.
• The crowd might not be the trendiest.

That said, after spending four great years there, I can say there are some positives too. The environment is quite competitive, which is healthy. Students find spots to hang out like Pandit Ji’s, Dundahera, Shipra Mall, and the Chengezi Chicken place at Ghantaghar.

If you find something you're passionate about and stay focused on your studies, you can do well in almost anything. I picked up interview skills and learned about behavior through personality development classes, which have been really useful in the real world.

So, in summary, it’s a good college for the average student, and by the time you leave, you might find yourself smarter and possibly happier.

Being an engineering student at ABES Engineering College means your schedule is pretty packed, so finding time to relax can be tough (skipping classes is a different story). When you first start, there's a 21-day induction program that lets you dive into your hobbies. There are tons of activities like art and craft challenges and sports competitions. I remember barely attending classes during this time; I'd just show up for attendance and then leave, coming back only when the day was done. No one really cared where you were. Those were some of the best days in college. But soon, I realized why engineering students often feel stressed.

Classes start at 8:30 am and usually go until 4:30 pm, though sometimes you might finish as early as 2:30 pm. You get an hour lunch break from 12:15 to 1:15 pm to do whatever you like (I often played a quick game of PUBG after eating). Then, it's back to classes until 4:30 pm. You'll have regular assessments and tests, but there’s still room for fun.

Besides academics, the college hosts various fests and inter-college competitions. This year, they even started a TEDx event, and a notable guest came to speak to us. The campus canteens are great, especially TEA MEN CAFE, and there's a juice corner with all sorts of drinks.

In the end, your college life is what you make of it. Just remember your main goal: to become a skilled engineer. If you don't secure a job by the end of your fourth year, all those fun times with friends and your partner might feel like a lost opportunity. As the famous Radhe Shyam Sir, a Personality Development Trainer, says: Work hard, party harder. Enjoy everything you want in college, whether it's skipping classes or partying, just don't let it overshadow your studies.
