Course Curriculum Overview

4

The course curriculum is relevant and fairly comprehensive. Well defined syllabus with core subjects included. Balanced focus on theory and academic learning. Suitable for students aiming for higher studies. The curriculum prepares students well for post graduate studies and entrance exam.exposure to practical and industry oriented applications is limited. AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT- Inclusion of skill based and industry relevant modules. Greater use of interactive teaching methods. More guest lectures and workshops. Exams are conducted semester wise with internal assessments. Moderate difficulty. Questions are syllabus based and predictable

Admission

I applied to PGGC11 . I initially got admsiion INTO PGGC 11 but by that time I had already secured admission into DAV COLLEGE I. Since the offer from PGGC 11 came later, I decided to continue with DAV COLLEGE. BETTER BECAUSE- Better overall environment Active student life with regular events Good teaching quality Convenient location and familiarity I did not face any rejections from any college. DAV COLLEGE admission process Merit based > Based on qualifying examination marks as per Punjab university guidelines > Cutoffs depend on course and category > Smooth and well organised process. Overall I am satisfied with my decision to join DAV COLLEGE, Chandigarh
