Course Curriculum Overview

3

1- Course curriculum is relevant but there is no practical knowledge, application based learning. 2- you'll learn the theoretical part but there is no opportunity for internships and societies. 3- they should definitely improve their teaching methods. Most of the teachers are not even present. 4- semester exams happen every 6 months and mid sems in between. Difficulty level is quite doable.

Fees and Financial Aid

Iam in Darshan shah college, under Purnea University which is in Katihar. First, you have to apply for the college for which a general candidate has to pay 600 INR. If you have reservation under SC/ST or you're a female student then you'll be exempted from this application fee as far as I know. Now, after getting shortlisted in the merit list, you have to pay the admission fee, which is around 2400 INR for B.com(H). After that, every semester you'll have to pay 600 INR for registration, and 600 INR for Examination form, so that sums up to 1200 INR per year, and 4800 INR in 4 years. Then you'll have to purchase books and guess papers to crack the exams, so that is also an expense which you'll have to pay every semester. So, I think in less than 10,000 INR, you'll complete your graduation. P.S: This fee structure is for general candidates, remember that if you're a reserved candidate or a girl child then you'll have to pay much less.

Campus Life

0.5

No clubs, no societies, no extra curriculars. Some sport events happen i guess as far as i have heard but that too is not sure. College has library but there is no book. Don't expect the college to add any value into your life. You just have to improve yourself. The college will play zero role in it.

Admission

I was in Jaipuria college under Calcutta university and also got confirmed in goenka college of commerce and business administration. But, because of personal issues, I had to enroll here. If you are someone who wants to prepare for banking, or any other competitive exams, then this college is for you. You'll get a lot of free time. But, if you want good academics, better college life, and better exposure then you'll probably get depressed in this hell hole. Admission criteria is pretty simple. You just have to put your 12th marks and you'll get admitted on that basis. No need to think about cut-off. Everyone gets admission here by the end of the merit lists. ???????

Faculty

0.5

1- Faculties are not at all supportive. You'll see teachers who are not even interested in listening to student queries. Classes also don't happen regularly but some teachers, you'll find trying their best to change the whole scenario. Like my accountancy teacher is a really good and approachable teacher. 2- I did not meet a lot of faculties, but I liked Abhishek Gupta Sir who is the accountancy professor. 3- I didn't meet a lot of faculties because most of them weren't even present. 4- Course curriculum is relevant, but you'll have to study on your own or hire a tutor. Exams are pretty straightforward but even if you write the best answers, they won't give you high marks. There are mid sem exams too.

Currently not many as Bihar hardly have industries but our college has made some connections and therefore those industries come for placements. However only 30-35% students are placed and not many as of now.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Curriculum needs to focus on what you can do with information rather than the information itself. I wouldn’t eliminate content, without background we cannot form good, rational, and educated conclusions. We are still giving timed tests in math facts! I know that’s traditional, but it just isn’t as important. My era had no calculators and we needed to be proficient at paper and pencil solutions, but now, perfect calculations are available to everyone. We should focus on what kinds of problems can be solved with mathematics. Spelling is equally less important. Vocabulary should be stressed. My sister years ago was taking a test for a personal assistant position where she was asked to type a large number of words per minute error free.

I Wanted to Clear Few Professional Exam's and and few of them graduation was mandatory so on that note I've chosen this Course. See, I've done my B.com(Hons.) in Accounting and finance and my professional course is completed related to that so it helped me quite sort of like that. There must should be some accountability too for one who clearrs the paper and needs improvement while checking each student's paper No there's isn't any kind of improvement it needs that's good enough till yet !

So about the influence and all there is nothing which can influence me, their system is totally a useless one they'll notify you today that today is your admit card is available to get , and after that you'll not get one . There's no rule to follow when you're getting your admit card or any documents there is no line everybody is gathered surrounded by other person. So this is what I think They should improve the condition of discipline and rules Abe regulations. About exams as I told you before it's not that hard I think rarely their are students who get failed in those exams but in final one yeah our centre is the other colleges so their is the probability.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would rate the B.Com curriculum at LNMU around 7.5/10 for relevance and coverage. I chose this course because it included all the important commerce subjects needed for government exams, higher studies like MBA, and basic professional courses. The syllabus builds a good theoretical foundation, but it lacks practical exposure like Tally, GST or real industry projects. Teaching methods are simple and could be improved with more modern, interactive approaches. Exams are held twice a year and follow predictable patterns, so the difficulty level is moderate. With notes and regular study, most students clear them easily.

Big 4 and some manufacturing companies who have large scale accounting are the ones who have partnered with college to get them the real workforce for their organisation. A lot of girls from our college who secured jobs from campus have helped the college build network and make sure every year maximum girls are placed from campus.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Firstly the college doesn't prepare students for the real world. Teaching methods of the teachers are okay but it doesn't help in the real world competition. No extra curricular activities are held for students. College gives enough time for preparation for the examination. Anyone can pass easily in this college.
