“A Balanced MCA Journey at IPS Academy”

The curriculum is descent but mostly focused on theory. Some topics like AL, ML, and coding were the reason to choose this course. However, real-world applications and project-based learning are limited. Exams happen twice a semesters and one final, which are of medium difficulty. The curriculum should include more practical work, industry tools and updated tech content to be more useful for jobs and higher studies. Teaching is good but still relies on slides and lectures more than hands on tasks.

MCA placements start from 3rd semester. Companies like TCS, Wipro, Tech Mahindra visit. Highest package around 7lpa, average is 3-3.5lpa. About 60-70% students get placed. Jobs are mostly in IT, Testing and Support. I plan to work in software and appear in tech exam.

MCA General): RS1,26,700 per year fixed fee. With lab, exams, other fees, full cost is RS5.6 lakh for 3 years. No yearly hike. Merit & govt help upto RS35000-RS50000 per year is there for SC/ST/OBC and top scorers.

Campus life at IPS Academy is active. Annual fest "Arambh" and tech fest "Techstorm" held every year, mostly in March. There are clubs for coding, drama, dance and more. Sports like Cricket, Badminton and Volleyball are available. Classroom have projectors and wifi. The library has good books but limited journals. Clubs and events help students build skills and enjoy college life beyond academics.

I choose IPS Academy for MCA becauit has good faculty, lab and decent placements. I applied to other colleges but couldn't get in due to low CMAT rank and high fees. IPS acceps CMAT and DAVV CET. I got admission through MP online counselling. The process was smooth. Cutoff is moderate. And the college has better review than many local options.

Most faculty members are helpful ans eay to approach. Some explain topics well, while a few focus only on theory. The cousre is mostly theory-based. Each semesters has 2 internal exams and 1 final. Exams are moderate. Few students fail unless they skip classes. Curriculum is okay but lack real-world projects.

IPS Academy calm at night. Hostels have an entry time of around 8-9 PM. Library and cafeteria closed by 6 PM. There's gym but fixed hours. Students usually hang out at nearby cafes like CCD, chai sutta and 56 dukan. The area is mostly safe, but students prefer staying indoors at night. Campus events and group studies are common ways to unwind after class.
