Admission
After getting the result of JEE MAINS and ADVANCED the best options I was having then were IIT Dhanbad metallurgy, NIT Jamshedpur mechanical, NIT Durgapur Electrical .These were the colleges and branches that I was getting through the JOSAA counselling. And through the WBJEE Counselling I was getting Jadavpur University Instrumentation and Electronics Engineering and Computer science Engineering in all the other listed colleges of WBJEE Counselling. The reason I chose to this Jadavpur University Instrumentation and Electronics Engineering was because-: 1. It has the best placement stats compared to the others mentioned colleges. 2. It's fee structure was very fascinating to me as I didn't wanted to spend a large portion of my parents money over my education. 3. It's a tier-1 college probably only next to old IITs and top NITs in terms of overall rankings and performance. 4. It gives a wide range of carrier opportunities whether it's in tech, core, consultancy,finance,etc
Faculty
The faculty members are no doubt very highly qualified and experienced. They are probably one of the best in their respective fields. The faculties are quite friendly and approachable they even respond on the online text messages and doubts of the students. The system of exams here is as follows -: 2 class test each of 30 marks.The average of the two will make 30% of your final result of each subject End sem exams of 100 marks of each subject.The 70% of the marks scored (out of 100) will add up to make the final result. So basically 30 marks from class test and 70 marks from end semester exams. In the semester grade card you don't get marks instead you get grades which corresponds to a range of marks that you have scored.which is as follows:- Grade. Range of marks S. 91-100 A. 81-90 B. 71-80 C. 61-70 D. 51-60 E. 41-50 The passing marks here is 40. The SGPA is calculated from the grades you got which comes out to be a number between 5-10.

The course includes sessional subjects too like Engineering Drawing, Workshops, Labs Where a student must pass on the first go.
