Remarks :
St John's is one of the most reputed medical colleges in India. Here everything is student centric and the teachers are also very supportive. The admission is through NEET. The cutoff for my batch was around 490. I took a drop year to prepare for neet.
Course Curriculum Overview :
The course curriculum is veey organised and prepares the student to become a doctor in the real world very efficiently. 1st year is spent on studying the normal body. From 2nd year we start clinics which allows us to see the patient and take classes at the hospital. The exams were timely. There are 2 internals and 1 prelims before the university exam.
Internships Opportunities :
After final year, every student has to do 1 year internship in which they rotate between departments and gain clinical exposure required to become a doctor. The salary is about 15000 per month. You assist doctors in the opd and wards.
Placement Experience :
We have to serve in underprivileged areas for 2 years as bond to the college after which we attempt the pg exam. There is no campus placements for a medical college. I intend to try for neet pg after the bond is completed.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
For me, the first year fees was 7.25L and from 2nd year to final year 6.85 L however there is a 10%increment in fees for every new batch. i.e the fees of the 23 batch is 10 percent higher than the 22 batch. Hostel fees along with mess is 1,14,000. There are scholarships based on academic ability in the college.
Campus Life :
The college fest is Autumn Muse held in September. It is one of the biggest fests in south india. The central library hosts all the books you could ever need to study. There is also a reading room in the college. There are multiple student clibs spanning a variety of subjects including Literature and theatre.
Hostel Facilities :
The rooms for boys are single and girls occupy double rooms. Boys hostel is situated across the road and girls hostel is in the main campus. The food is slightly below average. Hostel with mess fees is about 1,14,000 per year. It is less for girls.

BSc Physics at Jain University
Course Curriculum Overview :
Faculties are well qualified and some of them are doing active research. However the college does not have a very active research environment but they do not hinder a student from taking up projects outside. They provide all support like recommendations, attendance permissions etc.
MSc Physics at Christ
Course Curriculum Overview :
All the faculties are well qualified and quite renowned in their research fields. However some of them have this quality of holding personal grudge and targeting. Some assume you know a lot and don't teach properly and expect more from the student. There is a lot of pressure even with internals, assignments and other things.

The highest package last year (2023) was 6000000, and the average package of the university is approximately 850000. A good percentage of people who opt for placements do get placed decntly. My plans after my BBA are writing GMAT and going for my MBA abroad in a good college.
