Chouksey Group of Colleges

Admission: CEC has awesome teachers in Bilaspur. I think Chouksey has some of the best teachers in Chhattisgarh. Most of them have PhDs. They get what we need just by looking at us. They explain everything so well. Sometimes they even invite us to their office if we need help.

Placement: The job placements here were pretty good compared to other colleges in Chhattisgarh. Everyone had a fair chance to get a job, but some of us passed because we weren't happy with the salary they offered. The highest salary was 3.5 lakhs per year, the lowest was 1.5 lakhs, and the average was 2.5 lakhs. The college's TNP department is really active, but we didn't always get paid internships through them. Sometimes we had to find internships on our own.

Campus: The best thing about this college is the awesome infrastructure. It's spread across a big area with different buildings for engineering, pharmacy, homoeopathy, and the hostel. The engineering students sometimes struggle with the lab machines not working properly. We have unlimited Wi-Fi, but the classrooms are just okay and there's an e-library. They have medical services on campus, but the canteen food isn't that great. Hopefully, they'll improve it soon since the management is working on it. The college has sports facilities like cricket, football, and volleyball courts, plus a gym (still being built) and a badminton court.

Admission: The teachers at our college are pretty good. Most of them have postgraduate or PhD degrees, but there are a few who only have undergrad degrees in civil engineering. The teaching quality is decent overall. However, the education system could be better, and it's hard to keep up with students from other colleges.

Placement: This college doesn't have any placements for civil engineering students. The placement cell didn't do a good job in 2016 and didn't bring any companies for campus placements. That's why none of us got placed yet. We're left with only government job preparations as an option.

Campus: The college has good infrastructure. Some labs are great while others need fixing. Classrooms are okay. The food in the hostel mess isn't great. Wi-Fi works fine. The library is not that great. Overall, the college is good.

Admission: The teachers were really helpful and knowledgeable. But their way of teaching had some issues. Some students felt they weren't fully prepared for the industry because they were still going over things they learned ages ago.

Placement: The college had a bunch of job options, but none were for mechanical stuff. Most were sales jobs or BPO work. Some were for software. The best pay was 12 LPA from a company called Lido.

Campus: In our mechanical department, the labs didn't have working equipment. First-year students got the best stuff, like nice classrooms with good desks and chairs. The food at the mess was pretty good. And we had great sports and medical facilities too.

Admission: The faculty and courses here are a big disappointment. I'd rate them 1 out of 5 stars. The teachers are not great and the labs are not helpful at all. They just repeat what's in the books without giving us any practical knowledge. I can only speak for the CSE branch, but those professors are not smart. They might be qualified, but they don't know enough to teach us well. They don't even understand basic programming stuff. They are a waste of time, just making us come to class every day. Only a few teachers, like 5%, actually know how to teach. Overall, the teaching quality is really bad. I hate the way they teach. Most of the time, they are teaching the wrong stuff. And if you try to correct them, they'll embarrass you in front of everyone.

Placement: The college has companies coming for campus placements, but the job offers aren't great. It's the best for placements in Bilaspur, but still not super satisfying. I'd rate it 3 out of 5 stars overall. Around 50-60% of students get placed, which is okay. The lowest salary is around 2 lakhs per year, while the highest is 4 lakhs. On average, students make about 3 lakhs per year, which comes to around Rs.17,000 per month.

Campus: The college looks okay with good infrastructure, but I'd rate it 3 out of 5 stars. They have a canteen and a stationary shop, but I don't like them. The canteen is dirty, with limited food options and high prices. The food quality isn't great either. The stationary shop is also expensive. The library charges for photocopies and book bank access, which costs Rs.1000 for 2 semesters. The labs are not well-maintained, especially the CS lab where only 40% of computers work. There's no Wi-Fi on campus, only one crowded sports room, and the toilets are in bad shape. They're building a new cafeteria and stationary shop, but it's still in progress. The library is big but lacks enough books, and the staff aren't very helpful or respectful. The classrooms are decent, with whiteboards that aren't always visible. The desks are comfortable though. There's no medical room, but you can buy medicine from a nearby store.

Admission: The teachers were all super qualified, with either a Ph.D., master's, or bachelor's degree. The pass rate was about 50%. How tough the exam felt really came down to how ready you were. I'd say the course was right in the middle  not too tough, not too easy.

Placement: Pharmacy students used to get job offers as medical reps from some companies. But in recent years, no big pharma companies have been hiring. The average salary for pharmacy students is around 2.5L - 4.0L.

Campus: The college had really good facilities. They had a temple, garden, sports ground, canteen, and free Wi-Fi on campus. I liked that they had both indoor and outdoor games, like cricket and badminton. The whole place was covered by CCTV. The pharmacy building had a nice lab and library too.

Admission: The teachers here just focus on exam passing. There are only 2 really good professors left. The others all left. They don't really help with exams like GATE and IES. But they do set up field trips and job training sessions.

Placement: The college didn't have any job opportunities for civil engineering students. No companies came to hire them. Only the Indian Navy came for placements at our college.

Campus: The college buildings were nice. The labs were okay. The library wasn't great. The food in the mess was terrible. The hostel is far from the city. Food quality wasn't good. No medical help nearby. Hostel rooms got too hot in summer.

Admission: The teachers at this college are awesome! They really know their stuff and have tons of experience. They use digital tools for teaching, which is cool. There are over 150 faculty members here. The course curriculum is really useful too.

Placement: Lots of companies visit our college for placements. They mostly hire MBA and CS students. Our college in Bilaspur is private and ranked first for campus placements. Throughout the year, a few companies visit every month. And in Feb-March, we have a big placement week where lots of companies come.

Campus: I started college here in 2000. The place is pretty nice. The campus is big, with a huge playground. The medical stuff is good, and they have labs and classrooms. The guys' hostel is close by, and it's cool. Hostel life is good, but there's no Wi-Fi in college. The water situation can be a bit tricky sometimes.

Admission: The facilities here are decent. They offer 3 courses: MBA, engineering, and pharmacy. This college is known for its pharmacy program in Chhattisgarh. The faculty is great and really know their stuff. The director is also pretty good.

Placement: The job placements here are kind of limited, but some good ones like Capgemini and Culebra are there. Most of the companies are for computer and IT basics. Indian Navy also recruits here, which is a top company in India. In previous years, more companies came for hiring students.

Campus: The college has great infrastructure, ranked 3rd in CG. There are 3 buildings for engineering, pharmacy, and MBA, plus a boy's hostel. The hostel is nice too. It's one of the top colleges in Bilaspur and part of the LNCT engineering college group.

Admission: The teachers here are pretty helpful and know their stuff, but some of them teach subjects they're not experts in. In the CSE department, there are only like 8 teachers. The exams are not too hard if you study what's in the syllabus. The teachers just wanna finish the syllabus, so you gotta do some extra studying on your own.

Placement: The job placement rate for my department is around 30%. The best job offer is 20 LPA from BYJU's. Most people get paid between 2-5 LPA on average. The main companies that hire from my program are LG, Wipro, TCS, and others. But, not many students get internships.

Campus: The campus is nice and clean. The classrooms are well-maintained. However, the labs need some updates, especially for Chemistry and Physics. The hostel is great, with clean rooms. The food in the mess is okay, like in most private colleges. They have sports facilities and a ground for football and cricket practice.

Admission: The teachers here are really helpful. They teach us both theory and practical stuff. Whenever we need help, they guide us well. They know their stuff and have lots of experience. They make sure everyone follows the rules. The course is great because it's all practical, so we're ready for the industry.

Placement: Lots of companies come here to hire students. This college is great for getting IT jobs. The highest salary they offered was 10 lakhs per year, and the lowest was 3 lakhs. Byju's, Collabera, and Tata are the top companies that hire students from our course. The internships could be better, but overall, this college is the best in Bilaspur for job placements.

Campus: The college I go to has Wi-Fi, labs, and a big library with lots of books. The classrooms are clean and have smart boards. There are more than 10 lab rooms for different subjects. The hostel rooms are nice and clean, and the food in the mess is pretty good. The canteen has everything you need, and the college organizes lots of games too.
