Admission

1. College Selection: Why I Chose CGC Jhanjeri Colleges I Applied To: During my admission phase, I applied to four major institutions in the Punjab/Chandigarh region: Thapar Institute (TIET), Patiala (My Dream Option) Chandigarh University (CU) Chitkara University CGC Jhanjeri Confirmed Admissions: I received confirmed admission offers from Chandigarh University, Chitkara University, and CGC Jhanjeri. Why I Chose CGC Jhanjeri Over Others: I compared the colleges on three main parameters: Fees, Placements, and Crowd. Financials (ROI): This was the deciding factor. Chandigarh University costs approx. ?10-12 Lakhs for a B.Tech degree. CGC Jhanjeri costs approx. ?4-5 Lakhs. Since both colleges often attract similar companies for placements, the Return on Investment (ROI) at CGC is mathematically superior. Crowd Size: CU has a massive population (30,000+ students). I felt I would be "just a number" there. CGC Jhanjeri has a smaller, more focused campus environment which allows for better teacher-student interaction. Location: Jhanjeri is slightly on the outskirts, which means fewer distractions compared to the busy highway campuses of other universities. 2. The Rejection Story: What Went Wrong? I did not get into Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology (TIET). Reason for Rejection: The primary hurdle was the JEE Mains Cutoff. Thapar has extremely high cutoffs for the Computer Science branch (usually 90-95 percentile for outsiders). My score was around 82 percentile, which was insufficient. The "Soft" Rejection: Even for lower branches like Civil or Mechanical, the fee structure at Thapar is very high (approx. ?18 Lakhs+). My family decided that the financial burden was not worth it for a non-CSE branch, so I had to drop this option. 3. Admission Process at CGC Jhanjeri The admission process here is simple, transparent, and student-friendly. Eligibility Criteria: For B.Tech: Passed 10+2 examination with Physics and Mathematics as compulsory subjects al

Faculty

5

7 to 8 faculties for 60 students. Faculty and students relationship is very good. I like my all faculties because all faculties are very good in teaching and they are very helpful. Per semester 3 exams are held by our college.

Interview Experience

5

Practice mock interviews , speThe admission process at Chandigarh Group of Colleges (CGC), Jhanjeri, was generally smooth and streamlined. While the college is known for its high placement records, the entry process is designed to assess your basic aptitude and your passion for the course you are choosing. Here is a breakdown of the Written Test, Interview process, and how I prepared. 1. The Admission Process & Criteria The admission at CGC Jhanjeri is primarily merit-based (based on your 12th-grade marks or Graduation scores), but there are specific criteria depending on the course: Engineering (B.Tech): They usually look at JEE Mains scores or Class 12th marks (Physics, Chemistry, Maths). Management (MBA): They accept scores from CAT/MAT/CMAT. Scholarship Test (CGC Josh): This was a major part of the process for me. Even if you meet the marks criteria, taking the CGC Josh scholarship test is highly recommended to get fee waivers. 2. Written Test: The "CGC Josh" Experience I appeared for the CGC Josh (Scholarship) test. This serves as both an entrance and a scholarship assessment. Test Pattern: The test was online and consisted of multiple-choice questions (MCQs). Sections: It covered General Knowledge, Basic English/Verbal Ability, and Quantitative Aptitude. Since I was applying for a technical course, there were also basic questions related to Science (Physics/Maths). Difficulty Level: The difficulty was easy to moderate. It wasn't as hard as JEE or CAT, but it required speed and accuracy. 3. Personal Interview / Counseling Interaction After the documentation and initial screening, there was a counseling interaction (Personal Interview). For undergraduate courses, this is more of a personality assessment than a technical grilling. Common Interview Questions askeak english 1st cgp criteria, 2nd test , 3rd GD and Last is interview. I prepare these from DCPD Department of our college from technical classes, soft skills and verbal communication classes.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I’d rate the curriculum like 7/10 in terms of relevance and comprehensiveness — it covers all the major CSE subjects like DSA, OS, DBMS, CN, AI, ML, Cloud, Cybersecurity basics, etc., and honestly that was one of the reasons I chose this course because at least the core subjects are solid even if PTU keeps some old-school stuff in the syllabus. The curriculum does prepare you for real-world stuff, but only to a point — like, if you focus on coding labs and projects you’ll be fine for internships, but if you depend only on classroom theory then it won’t help much because industry wants hands-on skills. For higher studies also it’s okay because theory depth in subjects like OS and DBMS is decent enough. But yeah, improvements are definitely needed — some subjects feel outdated, teachers should use more practical examples, and we need more real projects instead of copy-paste lab manuals; also some faculty teach directly from slides which gets boring fast. Exams come twice per semester (sessionals) plus the final end-sem around December/May; they’re mostly easy if you write long answers, but tricky if you rely only on understanding because PTU likes theory-heavy questions. Overall, the system works, but it could be way more practical and industry-focused.

Placement Experience:

Placements are not that good. Although companies come, there is a lack of mass recruiters or reputed organizations. One has to grind hard here for placements. If you're a CS student, you will have to face immense competition here. As for core branches, placements are severely dry. Students gets eligible in 4th year onwards for placements. Some of recruiters here are Trident, TCS, Reliance, Sonalika and other few. Every company offers around 10-15 selected students for a job. Highest package ever was 15LPA and average is 3.2LPA. Percentage placed is only around 15% here. My plans after the degree are to apply for govt exams.
