Admission: The teachers are nice, but some of them aren't very good at English. They just read from the PDFs and some read poorly. The course gets more interesting as we learn more about coding each year. The exams are pretty easy to pass - you just need to get 50 out of 100. It's easy to get those marks, and sometimes we can even copy because the teachers don't watch closely.

Placement: Only a few students got jobs, maybe less than 30%. The placements aren't great. I heard Google offers the highest package of around 30 LPA, but I can't confirm. The lowest is 5 LPA and the average is between 5 LPA to 10 LPA. IBM is big on placements for my AI course. We're only in our 2nd year, so no internships yet. Maybe in the 3rd year. Not sure which companies will come for placements.

Campus: The Wi-Fi is only for teachers, not for us students. The labs are great, and we go there a lot. The classrooms are nice and big, but some are too small. The library is a letdown it's called the central library, but you can only find books for CSE and MECHQ. The food in the main hostel is pretty good. Overall, the facilities like medical help, gym, and open spaces are all good.

Admission: The teachers at our college are awesome! They really know their stuff and the way they teach is great. The course I'm taking is super helpful. The exams can be tough, you need to get at least 50% to pass. Classes are pretty packed, but there are plenty of teachers to help out. I have lots of favorite teachers, but I really like the HOD madam because she listens to us. We cover a lot of subjects in my college.

Placement: The placement rate at MGR University is pretty good. On average, students get a package of around 18 LPA. Some companies visit our college and even offer a minimum package of 5 LPA. I personally had IBM come for my course, which was pretty cool.

Campus: The college doesn't have Wi-Fi for phones, but the labs do. The classrooms are nice, and the library has a lot of books. Everything we need is in the library. The hostel rooms have three people and a bathroom. However, the food in the mess hall isn't great.

Admission: The teachers here are pretty helpful, but not all of them. Some teachers only focus on certain students. They can be a bit judgmental at times. The course content is good and really prepares you for work in the industry. The exams are okay, but passing can be tough since the pass rate is high.

Placement: There aren't many students getting placed from our college. The top salary offered is Rs. 15,000 monthly. Most students are landing jobs in call centers instead of tech companies. Even though students have high scores and good grades, the placements aren't great overall.

Campus: The labs and classes here are really good. The canteen serves good food, the best on campus. The library is huge and great for studying. There are sports grounds for volleyball, basketball, and kabaddi. The hostel rooms are nice, but the food is just okay overall.

Admission: The teachers are really smart and nice. They know a lot. They teach well and the stuff we learn is useful for jobs. The exams are a bit tough, but most students pass them.

Placement: About 70% of students from my MCA course were able to get placed. The lowest salary offered was 1.9 LPA, while the average ranged from 2 LPA to 3.5 LPA. The highest package offered was 7 LPA. Companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, and some startups were among the top recruiters.

Campus: The classrooms are really nice and clean. They have cool projectors. The department also has a lab with computers and Wi-Fi. There's a library to help us learn more. The canteen is clean and the food is good. Plus, they organize sports and games for us, which is fun.

Admission: The teachers here are great because they all have Ph.D.s and real-world experience. They know their stuff, especially in psychology. They use projectors to help us understand theories better. The curriculum is really current. The exams are a bit tough, but fair. You need to aim for a 50% pass rate.

Placement: Most students usually land a job in their last semester. Our college has a good track record for placements. Companies such as Accenture, TCS, CTS, and Cognizant hire students with the right skills and good communication. But if you have backlogs, it's tough to get placed.

Campus: The college's infrastructure is top-notch. The lab equipment is well-maintained, and we have air conditioning all day. Plus, there's Wi-Fi for studying and a library with books on every subject. It's a great place to learn!

Admission: The teachers here are super qualified with PhDs and stuff. They're really nice and always willing to help. They even give us extra time to finish our projects and homework. It's cool how they use their free time to teach us. Exams are fair and not too hard.

Placement: A lot of seniors landed great jobs after graduating. The highest salary offered was 1 lakh per month. The course has tie-ups with IBM companies, which is great for us students. They provide top roles during placements, which is super helpful.

Campus: I loved this campus a lot! It's got a really nice natural vibe and a peaceful atmosphere. Lots of trees and plants around. Plenty of parking for bikes and cars. Wi-Fi in every nook and cranny. And don't forget about the library!

Admission: The teachers are really knowledgeable and they got picked carefully by MGREEE. They have to pass a test and do interviews before they can teach. That's why the teaching here is top-notch. In my MCA classes, we learn about stuff like Operating Systems, Networking, DBMS, C, C++, Java, and some management stuff.

Placement: There are lots of internships available, some of them paying well. Most students in my major end up getting good jobs. The college helps a lot with placements. About half of the students in my course got placed. The highest salary offered was 17 lakhs, while the lowest was around 3 lakhs. Companies like Delloite, Wipro, and TCS come for placements. This college is great if you want good job opportunities after graduation.

Campus: The course lasted for 3 years, but because of COVID, I had 2 years of online classes. The online setup was nice and I enjoyed it. They organized practice and projects well. I really like my course. The food was great, and the rooms were fully furnished. The rooms were spacious with three people sharing. We gave feedback on the food, and they always tried to make it better. One cool thing is they offered North Indian food for North Indians.

Admission: The teachers here are really helpful and they know their stuff. The teaching is top-notch and the course sets you up nicely for landing a job in good companies. Exams are a breeze, and the grades you get reflect your performance accurately. Plus, the teachers have tons of experience  at least 15 years each.

Placement: I go to Dr. M. G. R. Educational and Research Institute in Chennai. The number of students who get placed after finishing varies depending on the course and year. Different courses have different highest, lowest, and average salary packages. In 2021, all PG students got placed. In 2023, all B.Tech CSE students got jobs too. Some people say that around 80% of students in our college get placed. MBA students usually get an average package of 9 LPA. The highest package for CSE students was between 7 to 8 LPA. Big companies come to our college to hire students.

Campus: MGR University has everything you need - Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and good food. The rooms are nice too. Plus, there's a playground with football and volleyball courts, along with gym equipment. The facilities are top-notch here.

Admission: The exams were challenging, but fair. The teachers were great and really understanding. Passing those exams will definitely help us in the future. They did a good job preparing us for them.

Admission: The teaching here is really good. The professors explain everything clearly and in detail. Exams are strict but fair, you just have to follow the rules.

Placement: In our course, we have 3 classes with around 45 to 55 students each. Almost 9 out of 10 students got internships on campus. The salary packages range from Rs 30,000 to Rs 1 LPA. After the course, you can choose to work with hardware or software.

Campus: Our campus doesn't have Wi-Fi, which is a bummer. We've got labs for biology, chemistry, physics, civil engineering, you name it. And man, there are a ton of classrooms here. Oh, and we've got five blocks with 1 or 2 libraries packed with books.
