We get a lot of freedom in this college. If you are able to find friends of your vibe you can adjust with the college.

Dislikes

Everything. This college is a living hell. There are not much students in the college.
You find it difficult to adjust with the college because it is very difficult to find friends.

Admission:

The eligibility of the course is to pass KEAM entrance exam with a rank . I manage to secure 28k rank and I got allotted here in the 3rd allotment. I got reservation benefits while getting allotted because I am Muslim. You can't get into this college without attending KEAM. In spot allotment students who have attended keam but didn't manage to pass was allotted here. The question papers are actually easy but most of the time teachers don't manage to cover the portions. So we find it very difficult to pass the exams especially subjects like maths and electrical engineering. The admission process is ok but the fact is most of the students drop out during 1st semester because you will feel like you are trapped. At 1st our class strength was 39 but now it is 33. Each and every student in our class were interested in changing college but due to family pressure they were not able to do so

Admission:

The basic eligibility is NEET entrance exam and ICAR examination. For keralites you have the KEAM ranking according to which the admissions are provided, for non keralites you have the ICAR rankings. The application form will be available through the KEAM site. The cut off depends on the average score of the examination on that particular year. Reservation benefits are available for all reservation categories. For the children of fisherman many other scholarships are also available.
