Admission: At our college, we don't have regular professors for our classes. Instead, we get industry pros who share real-life tips. It's cool to learn from them, but sometimes their teaching is all over the place. They find it hard to explain tough stuff. Not having permanent teachers means our learning isn't steady. It affects how well we understand things. It's great to have industry folks teach us, but we need a mix of their experience and good teaching for a better learning journey.
Placement: In my third year, we started the placement process with mock interviews, group discussions, and aptitude tests. But there weren't any technical programs or training sessions set up beforehand. This made a lot of us feel unprepared for the technical aspects, which are super important for getting hired. While the mock interviews helped us with communication skills, they didn't cover the technical stuff we needed to know. Some of us are trying to learn on our own using online resources, but having workshops or training sessions from the college would have been really helpful. The lack of structured preparation has made things more stressful, but we're staying positive and doing our best.
Campus: The classrooms are fine, but the Wi-Fi can be unreliable. The lab doesn't have backup options either. The food at the canteen and nearby mess isn't great. Sometimes the Wi-Fi in the hostel doesn't work, and there are only a few spots where the Wi-Fi is decent on campus.

Admission: The teachers here are really good at their job. They begin teaching Python in the second semester, which makes learning programming easier. They give us question banks before exams, so the tests aren't too hard.
Placement: I'm happy to share that more than 540 students have already landed jobs. The highest pay in India is 13.5 LPA, and abroad it's 16.2 LPA. On average, we're looking at 4.5 LPA. The top companies hiring here are Infosys, Capgemini, and Wipro. As for my course, the main jobs you can get are data scientist and data analyst.
Campus: The Wi-Fi here is really bad, it hardly works. The facilities are not enough, and they keep adding more. The washing machines have been broken for over two months now. But the food is tasty, and the sports department is awesome. There are lots of fun events and activities, plus the canteen has a good selection of food and plenty of seats.

Admission: The teachers here are super helpful with learning, placements, and soft skills. They're like experts! Their experience really helps with exams and learning extra stuff. The passing grade is really high at around 9.8. The course stuff is spot on for us students.
Placement: Most students here get jobs after college. The college has a good score of 9.8. Big companies like Wipro, Infosys, Tata Motors, Cognizant, Cummins, etc., come to hire students. There are placement drives on campus. Some students even start their own businesses. The highest salary is 5.7 LPA, and the lowest is 3.2 LPA.
Campus: The labs are great for students, and they have all the equipment we need. The college environment feels really fresh. In class, we use digital devices for learning and there's a microphone to help us speak clearly. Plus, the hostel building is always kept tidy and clean.

Admission: The teachers at Zeal College really know their stuff. They have Master's and Ph.D. degrees. They are great at teaching and know a lot about their subjects. The teachers also help prepare us for the industry. Our semester exams are held by Savitribai Phule Pune University, but they are not too difficult.
Placement: I'm a student at Zea College, where about 80-85% of students get placed after graduation. In my program, over 70% of us land jobs in automation companies. The highest salary for robotics and automation students is 6 LPA, while the lowest is 3 LPA. Big companies like Kuka and Fanuc hire a lot of us from our college.
Campus: I'm studying Robotics and Automation at this college, and our classes are in Building B. It's shared with Mechanical courses. We get Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and a library from our department. There's a girls' hostel on campus too.

Admission: The teachers are really helpful and know their stuff. They're good at teaching too. Our college now has its own curriculum since becoming autonomous. The first group of students will graduate in 2024 and we'll see how it goes by 2028. The exams are pretty easy with most students passing.
Placement: Most students in B.Tech electronics and telecommunication got jobs around 70%. The highest salary for ENTC is 9.5 LPA. On average, students make 3.5 LPA to 5.5 LPA. Game Cloud and Infosys are the top companies hiring here. And about 70% of students land internships at Game Cloud.
Campus: The college has good infrastructure with available labs. Wi-Fi is also there, which is nice. Classrooms and labs are well-maintained. The library is huge with digital support. Hostels are only for girls. The canteen serves great food. Sports facilities are awesome with lots of games to choose from.

Admission: The teachers are really nice and helpful. They're always there to assist with anything, and they're super patient. The quality of teaching is top-notch. Plus, we have labs to practice in after classes. And there's a reading hall and library too. Great resources to help us succeed!
Placement: If you know your stuff, the placements at Zeal College are pretty good. The placement team is really helpful too. I'd recommend joining Zeal because companies like Infosys and Wipro offer great packages to skilled students. It's a good place to kickstart your career.
Campus: The campus is small but super clean and tidy. Lots of greenery around, and the girls' hostels are nice. Unfortunately, there's no hostel for guys, but there are plenty of PGs and hostels nearby. The food here is top-notch too!

Admission: The classes and tests are set up nicely, giving us a clear path to learn. But the teaching could be better. We end up having to study on our own a lot to really get the hang of things, which can be tough.
Placement: I'm disappointed with the placement situation here. The average package is only 2.5 LPA, which barely covers living costs. It feels like all the effort put into studying doesn't pay off well. The system needs to do better at connecting what we learn with what companies actually need.
Campus: The campus has a library and Wi-Fi, which is cool. But the canteen is a big letdown. The food tastes bad and is not up to par. It makes students unhappy and makes the campus experience not so great.

Admission: The professors here are really helpful and good at teaching. They make sure we're ready for exams by giving us training and discipline. They even give us notes and past question papers to study from. It's great!
Placement: I love this college because they give students so many opportunities. They teach us everything we need to know and offer tons of internships. Lots of companies work with the college too. The placement cell is great and helps us achieve our dreams. I'm really happy here!
Campus: I really like this college. They have a cool playground, a basketball court, and two canteens - one inside and one outdoors. This way, we can grab food without leaving the campus. It's nice because each course has its own building here.

Admission: The teachers are great and the college helps us get extra certificates. The exams from SPPU are not too hard. Some teachers are into sports and they are really nice. But, I wish my sports teacher was better. We have two regular exams and one practical exam.
Placement: I'm taking artificial intelligence and data science. You need more than an 80 score in MHT CET to join. The college offers a highest package of 9 LPA. The lowest one is 2 LPA, and the average is 4.5 LPA. About half of students got internships, mostly as data scientists.
Campus: I wish ZCOER had on-campus hostels for guys, but don't worry, there are private hostels and PGs super close by, like within 100 meters. The facilities here are awesome - library, gym, sports ground, you name it. Love it!

Admission: The teaching here is really good because they use technology to make it interesting. It helps us get ready for the future with lots of different activities. But, you gotta study hard to pass the exams. The semester setup is okay, not too hard. You just need 40% to pass each semester.
Placement: The course is tough but worth it. Most students get good jobs through the college, usually around 3.5 to 4 lakhs per year. Big companies like Amazon, Wipro, Mahindra, and TCS come for placements. They offer cool jobs like technician, robotics programmer, machine designer, and automation engineer.
Campus: The college has a really nice campus with clean facilities. The classes, canteen, and gym are all well-organized. Only girls stay in the hostels here. The classrooms have projectors for presentations. The labs are well-kept and the classroom doors open automatically. They also have water coolers on each floor with purified water for the students' health.
