Course Curriculum Overview

3

Course is very detailed and talks about all the possibilities of problems which could be solved hypothetically. The curriculum mainly focuses on theory, but the practical labs, work on code building. Teaching is done on a smart projector, but the way faculties teach is boring which encourages students to bunk classes. Efficient breaks are given in between the exams. Not difficult to score.

Admission

This college was in my same city, hence opted for this college. It is a reknowned college, with good faculties, proper workbase, nice campus. I applied for mamy colleges: VIT, SRM, BITS, NIT, and many more. I got admission in VIT and SRM, but the work environment was not proper. After my first JEE attempt, I got into KJ Somaiya College of Engineering. I applied on their online webpage and after round 1 admissions, I got an admission mail. KJ takes admission on the basis of JEE mains score or PERA Cet, in 2021. Those who apply first, get their seats first.

Faculty

2.5

Very moody faculty. A class of 60 has 3 batches, and one faculty over one batch. Faculties provide answers to solutions, but in their own way. Some bad faculties: Chirag Desai, Avani Sakhapara. Good faculties: R. Divekar, Nilkamal. These faculties are selected on personal opinion. Exams: 3 kinds: Internal Assessmen (2 exams- 20mark) In sem Exam (30mark) End sem Exam (100 mark)
