Entrance Preview

The college's own entrance exam for admission to the English Honours course. I scored 96 in English .I chose the college because it was reputed in Kolkata, and the faculty was good.

Course Curriculum Overview

4

The course curriculum followed that of the University of Calcutta. It was interesting. My electives were History and Sociology. Students could also choose from Political Science, Economics, Philosophy and Alternative English.

Internships Opportunities

I would not be able to answer this question, as I was not involved in any internships as such. This was not an engineering college. Also, I was an Arts student.

Placement Experience

3

Again, I am uninformed on the same. The college does have an active placement cell, but I do not have knowledge or information regarding the companies or their packages.

Fees and Financial Aid

Again, I do not have any idea about the procedure in this regard. I have neither availed scholarship nor loan. As for the loan availability, probably not required given that the fee structure is feasible enough.

Campus Life

3.5

The campus life was good. This is an all-girls college. The events and fests celebrated were very refreshing, and participation by all is encouraged. Campus politics were limited to student elections once a year, and these were extremely peaceful. Life at LBC was calm, and peaceful, with the focus slightly more towards academics.

Alumni/Alumna

The college seniors were very friendly, and chilled out. It was a very warm and amiable bond we shared. After leaving college, I have had no contact with the alumni.

Exam Structure

Exams were not too frequent, nor too hectic. They were spaced out. We did have mid-terms, and the annual university exams, which took place in centres outside the college campus.

Faculty

4

The faculty was good, and experienced. We were taught well, and they were quite informed about what they were teaching. But this was quite a few years back, I cannot comment about the new faculty, the teachers have changed, from what I hear.

I want to know bengali literature and all type of poems and proses that's why I choose B.a. in bengali literature. According to me, my course helps me in doing Masters in Bengali. From the point of view of improvements, I feel that digital classes can be conducted in the class by leaving the theory classes. Mere collage The exam level is basically hard and exams are conducted twice a year.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I have always wanted to persue English as a career. I love studying English but not a big fan of the new curriculum by NEP that includes a lot pf irrelevant papers. The semesters are not consistent. Odd semesters usually have a lot of time like 6-8 months but even semesters barely consist of 2-3 months.

Course Curriculum Overview:

We were held a class for upto 1hrs, thus we had 4 class a day. Sometimes it is boaring sometimes it becomes striking, it depends on the mood. It is to say little knowledge is a dangerous thing, if you don't read you cannot pass the semester examination. Although it will provide you a second chance. But with change of syllabus the exam pattern also change. You need to attain a total percentage of 75(%) to maintain you honours subject otherwise you would be regarded as programme course student.
