Course Curriculum Overview
Various course combinations are available as per the new curriculum this helped me in choosing course of my choice of economics and computer science which earlier was not available. Apart from this additional courses like skill enhancement course ,value addition course prepares one for further academic pursuits The areas of improvement can be in the schedule of the classes which is quite irregular which results in wastage of time also way of teaching should have certain practical approaches which can result in better understanding for students.Semester Exams takes place twice in a year I have given first semester exam till now .The difficulty level of the same is quite unpredictable as per my experience and contrary as well to what teachers suggest as important in class .
