What Students Say?
Likes
- The crowd in LSR is amazing. Students from all over the country come to study in LSR and there is a rich variety of culture and traditions. The social culture is very healthy and everyone does everything together. There is a lot of bonding and love.
- The education culture is very good. Since it is one of the top 3 colleges of DU, the studies are taken very seriously here. Since everyone is a scholar there is always a sense of healthy competition and good discussions.
Dislikes
- The food is not very good in the Nescafe. Many students have fallen sick after consuming the maggi provided by the nescafe. The hygiene is not great in the cafeteria also and students have to mostly get their own lunch.
- The fest is not as booming as the north campus fests. It is rather calm and quiet, with lowkey artists and not so great stalls. Although it is very fun to hangout with your friends, after a while it gets boring and people then tend to leave early
Course Curriculum Overview
I think what made me choose this course was that after graduation it ensures really good placements with high LPAs The curriculum is very thorough and fills us in with each detail which is crucial for masters and job However, after school it was quite a huge jump, especially in mathematics, so most students find it difficult to cope and have to take tuitions The end sem exams happen at the end of each exam. However, 2 months before, the tests, quizzes and assignments are given out and that is when it is a little hectic to cope up. Therefore I stand with my advice that start studying from the start
Internships Opportunities
Some of the highest internship packages provided by companies are BCG, DE Shaw, Mckinsey, Accenture, Deloitte, EY, KPMG etc. There are 3 categories of internships First involves internships less than INR 10000 per month Second involves internships greater than INR 10000 but lesser than INR 30000 per month And third involves DREAM INTERNSHIPS which are greater than INR 30000 per month For internships, it is important to have a good CGPA You need to have more than 7.5 CGPA to sit for internships Apart from CGPA, your aptitude and mental ability needs to be strong You need to have a strong profile consisting of good internship experience, good professional courses, renouned certifications You need to stand out in a crowd
Placement Experience
If its a 3 year course, then students become eligible to sit for campus placement in their 5th semester. If its a 4 year course, then students become eligible to sit for campus placement in their 7th semester. Around 80-100 companies come to LSR with the highest being 49LPA and average being 12 LPA The highest package is given by companies like Bank of America, American Express etc Mostly those students get such high packages who have completed CFA along with Economics These offers are made to more than 100 students My plan after getting my graduation is to get a work experience of 1-2 years After that I plan to sit for CAT and do my MBA from the top 10 IIMs Then I want to work at a good corporate company with a good reimbursement

Admission
In terms of DU colleges, I had only 3 aims; SRCC, Stephen's and LSR. However, my score was not high enough to clear cutoffs of SRCC and Stephen's. These are the big 3 in DU. Every student in DU places there colleges first. I got selected in NMIMS, SYMBIOSIS, CHRIST, IIM RANCHI ST XAVIERS MUMBAI & KOLKATA both and MANIPAL. But of course, LSR exceeds them all by a huge margin so I decided to come here. There was no admission process as such. Just after the seats were allocated we had to reserve our seat with a registration fee of INR 750. Then, we had to provide certain verification documents like MARKSHEETS, AADHAR CARD etc. That was the process
Faculty
The faculty to student ratio is excellent i.e. 1:10. The faculties are extremely friendly and helpful and it also helps that most of them had passed out from DU only They are contantly there to guide us whenever we require assitance However, there are a selected few faculties who ensure that students' lives are made as difficult as possible They cut marks of some particular students unnecessarily and then mark them absent even when present They are also never there to help out There are 2 end semester exams Each sem involves 3 tests out of which the best 2 marks are selected for internal evaluation The course curriculum is very difficult and if someone thinks that they will study last moment then they wont be able to score 7+ out of 10 So it's important to study right from the start Now for passing, DU has declared that students should score more than 50% in each subject
