Dislikes
- Attendance is mandatory. There is no such thing called proxy here. Teachers take attendance by there own and are very conscious about it.
- Most of our classes take place at 8:30 in the morning which is very hectic for the people who lives (1-2) hour distance away from the college from the college
- Chemistry labs and washrooms are old and requires maintenance
Course Curriculum Overview
Course curriculum is not much theoretical, it is more towards practical things. The order of the curriculum is very specific. The course usually covers most of the syllabus of competitive exams such as jam net jrf etc. The curriculum of physical chemistry requires improvement as it is more towards mathematical derivations and less towards practical applications. The teaching method is also mathematical derivations in board which is boring and hectic. The frequency of exams is not nice according to me because evertime it happens that when we are done with are assignments, practical comes in, and when we are done with practicals theory paper starts. We don't get enough time for preparation. And eventually we end up getting less cgpa. Apart from this teachers are not soft towards giving internal marks. Internal has to be taken seriously.

So the faculty to students ratio is well enough. Every teacher is cooperative and there approach to teaching is that they ask questions in between the lecture so as to check if everyone in understanding or not. Faculty members act as a good mentor also. They provide guidance and career perspectives. They individually deal with every student and try to understand the perspective of the students and accordingly guides them.
