Admission:

To make it easy I would like to tell you that I am not a bright student, especially my science ground was really poor. I could barely manages to qualify 10th examination with help of arts subject. After 12th I applied to Dinhata College and A.B.N Seal College. But I couldn't make it to A.B.N Seal just because my 10th result was poor enough, that's why I choose Dinhata College as a second option. But this second option provided me many opportunities that I qualified UGC NET to apply for PhD in my first attempt though I couldn't make it to JRF. But I hope good for the next time.

To get admission in our college you have to get marks around 85% in higher secondary exam . I'm talking about mathematics stream. Maybe for other streams low marks is considerable. There's no exam based admission you can get admission by marks . The difficulty level to get chance is moderate.

Someone who wants to take admission he needs pass 12th pass or equivalent qualification then after the college notice it's admission period of its respective website . The admission period start after the declaration of 12th result of wbchse. There is a good number reservation is available for the sc,st and other backward categories. The examination process held after every six months throughout the course duration. The exam level is not much difficult it's moderate to eassy . I think the college needs to improve their admission process in some areas like the process of its quite slow and fees of its also quite hard for the backward classes which needs to improve as soon as possible. Also the merit list which the college publishe is also need to currect.
