Dislike

In fact, it has a strict 75% attendance criteria. Failure to fulfill this requirement, even due to medical reasons, may result in your inability to sit for semester examinations.
You are not allowed to take food to your room, and if you miss dinner, you will starve to death.
There cant be a bad remark about the college management; they are doing commendable work.

SXC review

6.6Helpful

The admission is purely based on merit basis. The admission is based on the marks scored in class 12. The application form is available on the college website and as far as I remember a minimal application fee is applicable for forms. After the announcement of the cutoff list, one gets a minimum of 3-4 days to complete the admission process after that if required another cutoff list with a slightly lower cutoff is announced and the same procedure is followed. In my opinion, the admission process is good enough and needs not much improvement at the current moment.
