Panimalar Institute of Technology

Admission: The teachers seem knowledgeable, but they struggle with 12th-grade basics. It feels like they rely too much on ChatGPT for notes. In class, we mostly sit around or just copy notes. The course material is up-to-date, but the teaching falls short. They hold exams every 3 months, and only about 60% of students pass.

Placement: Around 20% of us seniors in my department got placed on campus. The rest are finding jobs off-campus. The highest salary was 7 LPA, the lowest was 2 LPA, and the average was 3 LPA. Companies like Hexaware, Accenture, Avasoft, Deltax, and a few startups recruited students. Sadly, no one from the current or senior batch got an internship on campus due to limited exposure and guidance.

Campus: The college doesn't have good facilities or infrastructure. Everything is broken or barely working. We don't have labs, Wi-Fi, or a library we can use. The hostel costs extra but doesn't have any amenities. Sometimes there's no water, frequent power cuts, and the biggest problem is the lack of Wi-Fi.

Admission: The teachers here are not worth the money. The course curriculum doesn't match what's needed in the industry. The teaching quality is not good enough for the high cost. Some teachers don't have the right skills. The course content is old and doesn't get us ready for real jobs. Exams in each semester are either hard or easy, with no middle ground.

Placement: I feel like finding a job in AI and Data Science is tough right now. Only 10% of us have jobs, and the pay is around 9 LPA. It's a bummer that big companies are hiring from all fields, not just ours. Plus, there aren't any free internships up for grabs. To do better, we need to learn the right skills in AI, Data Science, and coding. Showing off our projects on GitHub and looking for internships on LinkedIn can really help us out.

Campus: The AI and Data Science course facilities are top-notch! We've got cool labs, good Wi-Fi, big classrooms, and a library packed with resources. The hostels are okay, with Wi-Fi, but the food could be better. Breakfast is just okay. There's medical help if you need it, and lots of sports stuff for fun. Even though the food in the hostels could improve, the rest of the facilities are great for studying and growing.

Admission: The teachers here are not very experienced and don't know much about the subject. They seem more like lab assistants than professors. Even though they're called assistant professors, they only make about 60,000. The ACT team is strict and always threatens us with low internal marks for every little thing. Our curriculum is set by Anna University, and our college isn't autonomous.

Placement: I'm from the 2025 group. In the 2024 senior batch, only 5 students got jobs. 3 of them got placed outside campus with a 5 LPA package. In my college, there were about 5-10 students placed in every department. TCS, Cognizant, Kaar Teach, and Hexaware were some of the companies that hired them. They offered roles like data analyst, UI/UX designer, and full-stack developer. Unfortunately, there were no internships available.

Campus: My college lacks updated lab equipment. There's no library, Wi-Fi, or cell service. The cafeteria serves low-quality food, and the water tastes weird like it's mixed with sewage. Sports aren't a big deal here, and only a handful of students actually get to play.

Admission: The teachers here are really helpful. They always help us out when we need it. They're all post-graduates with PhDs. The course content is good and practical. We're ready for the industry and help each other out. Exams are not too hard, and most of us pass with flying colors.

Placement: Most students get placed on campus which is great. The highest package is 7 LPA, average is 4.5 LPA, and lowest is 2.5 LPA. Polycab gives the highest package. I didn't get an internship since I'm in the core department. The best role offered is GET.

Campus: The facilities for my course are top-notch. We've got air-conditioned rooms with computers and fast internet. The staff is always ready to help out. The library has all the books we need. Plus, my hostel has Wi-Fi, and there are labs for students who need them. It's all pretty convenient.

Admission: The teachers here aren't as good as I thought they'd be. The stuff we learn doesn't really help us get ready for jobs, especially for ECE, mechanical, and EEE students. Our semester exams are super tough because we're part of Anna University. It's hard to pass  only about half of us make it.

Placement: I think about 20-30% of students found jobs through on-campus placements. I don't know the exact highest or lowest salary, but most people get around 5-6 LPA. Companies like Accenture, Tech Mahindra, Hexaware, Cognizant, and TCS hire a lot of students for software development roles.

Campus: The classrooms and labs here are really good. The hostel is well-maintained. We have food, games, and indoor facilities in the hostel, but there's no canteen. If there's a medical emergency, they respond quickly.

Admission: The teachers here are not helpful at all; they can be pretty rude to students and don't seem to know much about the subject. They're more like lab assistants. They just hand out notes for us to copy. The syllabus is old and only talks about theory. Exams are easy, but only about half of us pass. If you fail, they treat you differently, which isn't cool.

Placement: I didn't have a good experience at this college. Out of 180 students in my department, only 20 got placed last year. This year, no companies have visited yet. The highest salary offered was 3 LPA, and the lowest was 1 LPA. Companies like Renault, Trios, and TCS came for placements. None of us got internships through the college; a few students managed to get one on their own. Some landed roles as Embedded Systems Engineers, Network Engineers, and Software Analysts.

Campus: My college lacks facilities. The labs don't have computers or proper equipment. The classrooms are dirty and have rats. We have a library, but we can't use it. It's just for show. The hostel doesn't have basic things like consistent water or clean rooms. They clean the rooms only every 2 months. The food in the mess tastes bad. We have to eat it because there's no canteen. There are no sports or medical facilities.

Admission: The teachers here are super helpful and the staff really knows their stuff. The teaching is top-notch and the courses are spot-on for getting us ready for the job market. The exams each semester are pretty easy too.

Placement: Around 73% of students in my batch got placed, which is pretty good. The highest package offered was 7 LPA and the lowest was 3 LPA. Deloitte is the main company that hires students from our college. Many students in my course, like around 50 to 60%, get internships in companies like Kodnest. The best role offered is the GET role.

Campus: The college I go to has air-conditioned halls and a library with central AC. You can chill in the library or study in comfy classrooms with AC anytime. The hostel serves clean food to us students, and it costs about Rs. 90,000 a year. But the hostel option is only for 3 years.

Admission: The teachers here can be pretty mean and don't really care about how we feel. It feels like they treat us like we're just there to do what they say. They don't seem to know much and just want us to write down what they say. If you try to stand up for yourself, you might get in trouble with the principal. They can threaten you with losing marks or even getting suspended. The semester tests are really hard, and only about half of us manage to pass them.

Placement: In my senior batch, none of us were placed on campus. Some students found jobs off campus, but the best offer was around 4-5 LPA, which is decent. Sadly, our college doesn't have a placement cell to help us out. The companies that came for recruitment were TCS, HCL, and a few startups. None of us got internships, and there were no company visits either. The job roles offered were web developer, front-end developer, and data analyst.

Campus: The college lacks faculty, proper infrastructure, Wi-Fi, and labs. Classrooms have limited benches, forcing us to share a broken one. The food in the mess is worse than at bus stands. No medical facilities are available. Only a few can play sports like cricket. There's not much else to do here.

Admission: The teachers are good, but they don't prepare us for the industry. They're helpful in class, but not outside. The course content isn't practical. The exams are easy, set by Anna University. About 80% of students pass.

Placement: Only 10% of students landed jobs, but the pay is decent at 3 LPA. They also offer internships to 10% of students. The best internship is at Blackstraw. The highest-paying role is for a software developer.

Campus: The Wi-Fi here is a bummer, but the labs are awesome. Classrooms could use an upgrade though. The library has a lot of books which is great. The campus has good facilities overall. The hostel is cozy and the food is tasty. It's a bummer there's no canteen. Sports, games, and medical stuff are all good too.

Admission: The teachers here don't really know much about the subject. Sometimes they skip class and hang out in the staff room with the air conditioning. They seem more like lab assistants than actual instructors. The course material feels old, so we have to learn a lot on our own. The exams are tough, and it's tough to pass  only about half of us make it.

Placement: In my senior batch, none of us got placed. The off-campus companies that came were TCS, Accenture, and a few startups. The highest salary offered was 5 lakhs per annum, while the lowest was 2 lakhs. They offered roles in web development, data analysis, and full-stack development. Unfortunately, none of us got an internship through any company.

Campus: The college doesn't have Wi-Fi, good computers, or clean classrooms. The library has really old books from 1990. The labs use Windows XP. The place is clean but there are no medical facilities or sports grounds for emergencies.
