It has been good so far

I love the college and the people it has given me. I have explored a lot of myself in the college and will always thank the college for this. Every college has some good and bad points and I love my college despite everything. I am growing here and I am loving it.

I did not write any entrance exam and was selected purely on the basis of merit. There was no interview process required for taking admission in JMC as it is Delhi University (government university) college and takes students on the basis of merit, i.e, on the basis of class 12th board marks. I chose this college because I read about its scope in future and I had commerce stream in my 12th standard.

Jesus and Mary College is one of the reputed colleges of Delhi University so no doubt, the education one gets here is exceptionally great. The course curriculum is uniform throughout the university so all colleges study the same course. I personally feel that the course is a bit redundant, I don't know if it was only for the first year or I might see a detailed version of the course in the future but right now, I think that the course could be little more comprehensive. As of now, I haven't seen any practical learning thing. I didn't have any elective option in my first year.

I have heard that there is a placement cell in our college which takes care of the final placements and the internships but since I was in first year as of now, I did not get a chance to know more about it because I didn't need any internship as of now. Some seniors did internships but I don't know if they got it from the college or they got it on their own.

From what I have heard, I can say that the overall placement is slightly above average. It is good for commerce department students. I have no idea about the companies, but I have heard of the company E&Y. I don't know average package too. Not many students sit for placements because they want to go for higher studies.

Our college has so many societies that I cannot even count. Every week, there are at least 2 events organized in the college and students enjoy it a lot. I personally love the Onam celebration which our college hosts and I too wore a traditional saree. An annual college function is also organized every year.

The fee is very affordable as it is a Delhi University college. Everyone wants to get in a Delhi University college because of its high quality education at an affordable fee. The fee for my course is somewhere around Rs. 10000- Rs. 15000 per year of this three-year course in JMC. Individual fee varies from one college to another in DU.

I have no idea if my college provides any scholarship. However, mine is a government college, so I think that there must be some schemes running to help the students who do not belong to a very good economic background.

There are many societies in our college, like, sports society, dance society, debating society and all of them provides a lot of opportunities to the students to improve their personality. I did get ample opportunities to explore my inner talent.

I haven't availed the hostel facility but some friends of mine live in the hostel. Some friends of mine, like the hostel and some of them, don't like the hostel. Overall, the hostel is hygienic and food quality is above average. I don't know much details.

Our college does have alumni meets and so, a proper platform is maintained for the interaction. My seniors help me a lot when I face problems in academics and they also guide me for future prospects. I think they surely contribute in the overall development of the college as well as the students

We have 2 exams in one semester. Internal assessment in form of mid-sem exams and assignments and projects submissions goes on regularly. End semester exams happen in December and May. I do not find the exam culture of my college, a chilled one.

Our teachers are very good and are quite qualified. They have deep knowledge about their subjects and are able to give a great insight into the subject. They teach from books, give notes, give us case studies and we really enjoy it a lot. They are so friendly that we can approach them for anything. As of now, until my this third semester of mine, I have had a great experience with the college faculty. Some teachers aren't that good.
