Which college is better for a B Com hons Shyam Lal College or Sri Aurobindo?

Shreya palitB.Com in Accounting and Taxation at Shyam Lal College (2021)

I have a few friends from both Shyam Lal College (Delhi) and Sri Aurobindo. Here is what you can expect from the institutes.

Shyam Lal College (Delhi):

Infrastructure: The institute is not the best if we focus on its infrastructure and amenities, as per the requirements of the students. The washrooms are typically not in their best condition, unlike other institutes as well. However, the food quality of the canteen is favorably above average.
Placements: As per the reports, only about 40% to a maximum of 45% of the entire strength secure placements. The average salary package witnessed until now can range anywhere between INR 4 - 6 Lacs per Annum (LPA).
Faculty: On a brighter note, the faculty members of the institute are undoubtedly exceptional.

Sri Aurobindo College:

Educational prospects: Sri Aurobindo College is quite good for the commerce department.
Placements: Several top-tier companies visit the campus during the placement season, for instance, E&Y being one huge name among many others. In addition, students also secure the opportunity to study offshores, if their criteria meet, as per the rules of collaboration with companies. The placement cell equally contributes to helping students achieve their goals, with securing almost 80% of the placement percentage and an average salary package touching about INR 4 - 5 Lacs Per Annum.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the institute is not as commendable as the other factors. However, the laboratories are quite good, with several pieces of equipment ready for use. Alongside that, the WiFi facilities are exceptional as well.

As per what you have read, it is now upon what your decision looks like. Make an informed decision.

Is it better to study B.Com from an average DU college like Shyam Lal, or Sri Aurobindo (Evening), or study for a BBA in IB from Amity University?

Amit MitraUG Bachelor of Commerce Degrees, University of Delhi

It’s better to prefer DU regular colleges given the choice. Course-wise, choosing B.Com over BBA is better, unless you are particularly interested in doing BBA. Here are some of the reasons why you should choose DU for your degree.

Other colleges charge reasonably higher tuition fees compared to DU, especially for courses like BBA.
If you are taking admission to a regular DU college try to engage in different activities. Join societies, clubs, etc. It will help you in the long run.
In DU colleges, you will get enough time to do internships for work experiences. This will definitely look better on your CV.
If you are a graduate from DU, then you will get certain advantages over Non-DU candidates, in job interviews.
If you want to study CA, CS, etc. along with your degree, then it is better to do a B.Com. Since the B.Com syllabus will have more subjects related to CA, CS, CWA, etc. You can also easily prepare for other competitive exams, without your college timing being an issue.

Considering all these factors, doing B.Com from a regular DU college will be better than doing BBA from Amity University.
