Class shedule is very hectic as we have to go clinical area in morning (hospital duty) then after duty we have class and labs. College timings are 8:30am to 5:00pm. There are a lot of Assignment and written work. But everything is evaluatory and everything is evaluated on the basis of performance not biased system. There are 5 casual leaves per semester. In my point of view they should increase holidays as students get tired with there busy schedule. Semester wise external exams are taken here, and we do have different centers for exams.
