Course Curriculum Overview
The course curicullum is so relavant and good. It is appropriate and topics in gate are covered .But still few of the methods are old, the curriculum and course contents are not updated and still follow past years

Hostel Facilities
Hostel rooms are okayish, equiped with a fan, light ,bed and cupboard . Room is quite small and double sharing for intial 2 yrs of college. Meal is also good. Affordability of hostel it is not so expensive when compared to outside
Admission
I applied to several other IITs. I cleared JEE Advanced and opening rank to enter our department in IITG for girls is around 12k rank. This is one of the old IIT, so i preffered this clg over other clgs and over other branches in other clgs, since it offers lot of exposure and has more opportunities
Faculty
Each course is taught by a faculty and assisted by few TAs (teaching assistants) who are mostly Phd or mtech 2nd year students. Usually approaching faculty for doubts is through mails and outside class few may take doubt sessions also. For few courses there will be tutorial classes , where sir gives questions and assists you in solving (students are divided into grps )each grp has 40-50students under 1 or 2 TAs and a main TA usually a Phd research scholar
Night Life
For first years initial 3months there used to reatriction till 10pm in night but there is no restriction in hostel after that. However most of the areas like New Sac (student activity centre) , many public areas closes by 12 and before.Night life is amazing in college the serenity is very nice, there are many places and lakes to hangout in clg
