Course Curriculum Overview

5

The financial aspect of the curriculum influenced me to join the BCOM course. Also I am pursuing CA and CMA as my career so it is helping me shape my career. Although we had more of a theoretical experience at college and not sort of a practical experience. We lacked the practical aspect of the curriculum. The teachers should practice practical aspect of the course and should give students case scenarios where we could apply our brains and theoretical knowledge to solve them. Also they should practice making teams and arranging case competition so that we have a learn with fun college environment. The exams were conducted twice in a year majorly one during January and one during December.

Internships Opportunities

3

Internshala offered internship to us at a stipend of INR 8000 per month. The role offered consisted of a financial role where we need to create content in writing for their website. The outcome was that it shaped our writing skill.

Placement Experience

4.5

On passing 5th semester, the students of Goenka College of Commerce and Business Administration are eligible for campus placement offers. The campus reach out college during our sixth semester to interview us. After passing sixth semester we can proceed with the jobs in case we qualify. All the Big 4s viz EY, Deloitte, PwC and KPMG including with MNCs reach our college for campus placement opportunities. They definitely select students each year. The highest package offered till date is 10 lakhs with a associate profile. The average package is 3 laks. The percentage of students getting placement offer is between 5% to 10 %. My plan after the BCOM course is becoming a successful Chartered Accountant and Cost and Management Accountant.

Fees and Financial Aid

The year wise semester fee is INR 520 including admission fee for each of the six semesters. It is a government college and a very reputed college of Kolkata. The cutoff percentage of the morning section is 90%. The admission fees at the beginning of the course is nearly INR 800. There is no other fee that we need to pay. The Library fee is INR 5. The fee of SC and ST friends is little less. Their feelings amount to INR 400. There are various scholarships available for SC and ST friends.

Campus Life

3.5

The annual festival consisted of a fest for new students and others included cultural programmes and national festivals. Our classroom although had a smart class television but our teachers never used them. They only used black boards and white boards. We do not have any such social group although we have our friends whatsapp group.

Admission

I applied to Shivnath Shastri College apart from this college. I got admission in that college with my name appearing in the first list itself. But I chosed Goenka College of Commerce and Business Administration over it because it was a government college with prestigious name and fame and reputable teachers, not to forget less fee structure. The admission criteria is simple, for morning batch it is 90+% in class 12 exams and for afternoon batches it is 80+% in class 12 exams. I was not rejected by any other colleges..

Faculty

4

The faculty to student ratio is 1:20. The teachers are friendly and very knowledgeable. They can be reached via WhatsApp as they provided us with their contact numbers at the beginning of our course. They would reply us before the end of the day. I liked Subhasree Ma'am the most as she was easily approachable and very knowledgeable. We have six semesters in the three year course. It is easy to pass for those students who pay attention to all the classes and work hard. Although Calcutta University are considered difficult to pass yet I passed them all with 8.5 + CGPA. It was all because of my teachers.

Other Applied Colleges

Because of name and fame.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose the course the b.com because I want to become the CA but after completing the graduation my family condition was not very good so I quit my studies and searching for the job. My dream was after B.com then I complete M.com then CA but I couldn't do that. I'm pursuing because I'm interested in understanding how businesses work and want a solid foundation in commerce and finance. It opens up various career paths in accounting, finance, management, and more. Plus, it's a versatile degree that can lead to professional certifications like CA, CS, or MBA.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course is of course outdated. Teaching methods are old. No case studies, competitions or project of any sort is there in the curriculum. Although a project of 100 marks is there in the final sem, but I don't think that's enough. There is no practicality in the curriculum and usability in career. The syllabus really needs an uplifment.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is average , I chose this course because I wanted to do an honours degree and I'm from commerce background so my first pick was B.Com . They really put efforts to prepare students for well future , as I said earlier some teachers are genuinely very good helpful supporting and good at what they do . Something they need to approve is the 70% attendance criteria, I think they need to understand not every student is just persuing graduation they are doing some other courses or jobs etc so they can't maintain 70% attendance . The frequency of timing is average
