Entrance Preview
Government Victoria college in Palakkad, Kerala is one of the oldest colleges in Kerala. It was started in late 19th century as a rated school. Later, it was build into a college. The college campus is spread across 25 acres of land. I secured about 88% in Commerce (12th standard) and got admission in this prestigious college on merit. In Palakkad, it is a matter of pride to study in this college. It is not easy to get admission either. Merit is preferred and only best students gets admission.
