Our heaven,Christ college.

What I Liked

College was great but the management was not that great.. But still we had alot of memories in that tight world.
The most memorable thing was our IV it was amaizing and we had alot of fun in our journey and with our friends ehich made our bond even more deeper. And our stage of our college was in our auditorium it is asize of 2 class joined but i wont say it as my disadvantage because it was so fun to be do crowded and also i like those moments also dancing on our dj day the programs the yoga day activicties our nss camp days etc.... I really miss my college ... I would definitely ho back on the alumini day to revisit the heaven.

What I didn’t like

The things that i am a bit disappointed is it would have been better if the management was a bit free to us... It would be cool if we was free a bit.... And also i have said about my college auditorium right it was so good actually but after we got passed our they built a new stage out side and at the time we where studing it was on process to build but we couldnt have a chance to have any event on that stage. It id actually a advantage but for me it is disadvantage thatbwhy didn't thaey build it bit early so ee could also have had a moment there....
The campus of our was not that big but still in some area we where not allowed not some we are not allowed to go to other class area we should want yo be in the floor of our class thatvwas actually not that good.. I have studied there for 3 year in that small campus still there arevplaces that i Haven't seen and also places tht i had only chance to vidit them only once and it was when we had 5 day nss camp by cuting or teachers eyes to eagerly seen what's there but there was nothing the same thing that we had in our balcony butbthe view was so great that make us go therebseveral time but we couldn't.

Remarks:

Actually i was got in merit in this college and also it was so inside.. Was difficult to travel there was a huge lack in the transportation and also i quietly find very expensive for the college bus facilities also.. The academic performance and classes was great but i had not find a college fun environment there

What I Liked

Good college infrastructure and faculty and campus life is okay but not great.

What I didn’t like

I dislike the extracurricular activities in college because they are not well organized, lack proper guidance, and often fail to engage students effectively in meaningful participation.
Faculty lack experience and proper guidance.

Remarks:

I chose this university because it offers a good BCA program that matches my interests. I had to attend an interview during the admission process. However, the semester exam timetable is quite rigid, which is inconvenient.

Serampore College - the Core of Heritage

What I Liked

Built in 1818, the college is a core of heritage. It has the most beautiful campus ever and surrounded by greenery, thus providing a very healthy campus life.
The college library is quite large and provides an extensive range of books, thus making them accessible to the students.

What I didn’t like

The college canteen is something which needs to be worked on. The food certainly does not match requiring standards.
Our faculty is really impressive but classes are often not regular. Even though the needed help is usually provided, it would be better if classes were conducted regularly and the attendance was looked after.

Remarks:

Our admisision procedure is solely based on the 12th boards marks. I had scored 94.5% .(best of 4) They publish merit lists based on marks obtained and admissions are carried out accordingly. No such admission test is conducted.

What I Liked

If I were to say anything good about the college, they would all teach me well There is no shortage of that, we can ask questions anytime Then again, everyone, including teachers, behaves nicely.And all kinds of facilities are provided to the students.
And then there's the bad news: why can't they get enough food there?

Remarks:

If you have to say something good about the college, it's good. The teachers taught well. That's the good thing about it.And what's wrong with it is the problem with its management. Management is not enough.
