"Lady Brabourne College: Is It Worth taking an Admission?"
Likes
- I like the greenery of our college, it is a very pretty aesthetically pleasing college, and is well maintained for a govt college.
- We have four buildings, which are interconnected and all are pretty spacious. The first is the Old Building, the next is the RC building, the third is the Merged Scheme Building, the fourth is the New Sciences building. Apart from that, there is also another cottage building in the back of our college where languages (except English) are placed.
- Campus life is pretty chill, we are free to do whatever we want, dress however we please. Most of our teachers are also pretty with some exceptions ofcourse. Most professors are understanding and good at their teaching methods.
Dislikes
- The worst thing about the college is the disgusting college washrooms, especially in the Main building. The RC is still tolerable but still not up to the mark. The drinking water facilities is also not available well. Most of the time water is not available.
- The faculty is sometimes somewhat dismissive about the student's concern, and since there is no political union, the student's concerns are not raised enough, and students don't generally raise their opinions enough.
Remarks :
Lady Brabourne College is one of the most reputed Government girls' colleges which provides a very safe environment for female students. The geography department of my college is amazing, so I opted for it. The admission is merit-based, where the criteria used are your class 12 marks and your domain subject marks. There are no interview rounds. The cutoff generally increases every year, and it is advised to score around 93-94 minimum in your domain, and around 95-96% on your boards for guaranteed admission for the general students. SC at least 90% on boards, and ST at least 70-73%. The admission process is pretty smooth. The only bad aspect of the admission process is that you'll have to do it all by yourself, and there is not much help or guidance from the professors or office staff unless asked.
Course Curriculum Overview :
This course was on my list, and the college has a good geography department overall. We have 6 permanent faculty, with 2-3 guest faculty, and other guest lecturers who are invited occasionally. Seminars are also held quite often on various topics. The faculty is highly qualified with PhD in my department. The instruments used in surveying in geography are really old and inadequate, and the professors teach Bengali and English. Other than that, in my department, one or two professors are quite biased but apart from that it is good. The theory syllabus is generally completed by most professors, but the practical is given the most importance. Signing the final sheets is a headache for many, especially in the initial semester.
Internships Opportunities :
There are no direct internships at our college, but sometimes recruiters come to professors who ask us to take part in the internships. For example, we were asked to take part in a data entry job for a well-respected professor. It was upto us to join or not.
Placement Experience :
There is a career counselling and placement cell, but frankly, there is no use for them, since there are no placements provided by our college. Sometimes if you are an excellent student, you are referred to another prestigious college for further studies. I would personally like to pursue a Master after the completion of my degree from another uni.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
During admission, the college charges for the practical based subjects include Semester 1-4300 Semester 2-2460 Semester 3-4300 Semester 4-2460 Semester 5-2460 Semester 6-2460 There are no hidden charges apart from these charges. You only need to pay the mandatory examination fees during each semester exams to Calcutta University directly, which amount is not related to the college but generally varies from 355 to 655. (355 for science subjects) Fee structure for Arts students: Semester 1-2460 Semester 2-2460 Semester 3-2460 Semester 4-2460 Semester 5-2460 Semester 6-2460. The admission fees are included in the semester 1 fee, and there are no extra charges. Students can avail of 7000rs scholarship by college,18000(science)/12000(arts)rs scholarship for aikayshree and Swami Vivekananda(all merit cum need). Hostel fees are only 800 rs per semester. No extra lab or maintenance fee is charged to the students.
Campus Life :
The annual fest is named "Kaleidoscope", which is held every year from 11-12th December. The first day consists of an inter-college competition, and the next day a band is invited to perform. The library is also pretty good, but personally, for the geography department, not a lot of books are available, but we have a departmental library where you can read the books. There is also an annual intra-college cultural festival where dance, singing, recitation, poster making, debate, ghazal, and a lot more activities are included. We also have an annual function day, a sports day every year, and a reunion day where you can visit the college and buy items. We also have departmental fests. The freshers and farewells are all departmental. We have a sports club, and also have a gym. The classrooms in the RC building and Merged Scheme building also have AC, and the old building doesn't have AC but is pretty chill, The Chemistry dept has AC.
Hostel Facilities :
I haven't gotten the college hostel. Each department has only given seats for hostel which is based on distance primarily and merit. The criteria are above 120km. But upon request, there are a few students who are granted special permission to stay in the hotel by our Principal ma'am. The food quality is like any other hostel, nothing special. The hostel costs Rs 800 per semester. The infrastructure is okay. Rooms keep on rotating, two bedrooms, three bedrooms, or dorms are also available. The PG students get a single room. The washrooms are not up to the mark, and no Western-style washroom is available in the hostel.

My experience at Shri Shikshayatan College
Placement Experience :
We have campus placements in our college. Some of the most famous companies which visit every year is TCS and Cognizant. The salary is very average around 1.5-2 LPA for freshers. You have to maintain a very decent profile with 0 active backlogs to get a job directly via our college placement. There are around 50-100 students who get places every year from our batch via campus placement.
Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose bcom hons because i was a commerce student in school. The course is well taught in our college. The syllabus is same for all the calcutta university students. The faculty is knowledgeable and well trained. All the teachers are friendly and teach us thoroughly. The classes are held regularly and on time. We had exams every 6 months. Let’s say 1st semester exam will be held after 4-5 months of joining. We had to give internal exams of 20 marks after 4 months of classes which was followed by external examination of 80 marks (nearly 1 month after that). The difficulty level is somewhere around 9/10 for other subjects and 10/10 for accounting and Tax.
Affordable Government Pharmacy Education with Strong Academics but Limited Industry Exposure
Placement Experience :
Placements at the Institute of Pharmacy Jalpaiguri are not good because their is no in campus placement. Most students pursue higher studies or find jobs off-campus.The average package ranges from ?2–3 LPA, while the highest package can go up to around ?4–5 LPA depending on the company and role. Many students prefer higher studies such as M.Pharm, MBA, or preparation for competitive exams to improve career prospects. After completing my degree, I plan to either pursue higher studies or gain industry experience to build a strong career in the pharmaceutical sector.
My honest opinion on P. G. INSTITUTE OF MEDICAL SCIENCES
Placement Experience :
The placement and internship cell of the college was really bad though. They did give us internship in different hospitals which were unpaid and the offered jobs were for experienced people, not for inexperienced or freshers. Only this side of the college was lacking. Otherwise, good. I had an job opportunity from this college which offered me 10000 a month.

Review of my collage
Placement Experience :
College don't provides any placement. But this college is little bit famous of our locality areas. If you need job the degree from this college will be valuable. This a downside of our college. I don't think we will face problem for the college degree.
