Admission
I chose IIT KGp over all the other colleges i applied for because of it's academic reputation, big campus placement opportunites and good infrastructure. i was getting a confirmed addmission in DU but they were not providing any hostel facilities and IITKGP provides really strong security without any restriction and gives equal opportunities for both boys and girls.
Faculty
The faculty to student ratio is 18:1 and the faculty memmbers are very much approachable offline as well as online. i can't name one faculty here as all are so good in their respective field but sometime they accelarate the course just to meet the deadline. The exam level is moderate to difficult with a total of 4 exams per year and if you have attended all the lectures and have done revision then it's quite easy to score good.
