Faculty

2.5

The teachers' qualifications are decent but not top-notch. It's worth noting that all the teachers speak Assamese instead of English. If you're not proficient in Assamese, it's advisable to reconsider attending this college from the first semester. Also, the teachers here don't give high cgpa even if you do good in the exams. Teachers here are open to discussion regarding anything.
