ST Xavier's Kolkata Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

The curriculum is very good and I got influenced by the broad spectrum of this stream. The curriculum has certain skill enhancement courses which prepares you for the outside world. The teaching methods are extraordinary if you follow the class closely. There are two exams in per semester. One midsem and the final semester. Exams are fairly difficult.

The faculty is very good and talented. The curriculum helps to inculcate various life skills and helps to understand the subject properly. Exams are difficult but if the notes provided are sufficient enough.

The placements of St Xavier's are good, the average package for B.com hons is about 7-7.2LPA and the highest being at 24LPA. Students become eligible for placements in their 5th sem. About 40% of the batch gets placed. Companies like Zomato, mc Kinsey, Morgan Stanley, Ey appear for placements.

The faculty and results were the reasons for making the course appear attractive to me. Many students here lands up at IITs and ISI after clearing their respective exams like IIT Jam and M.Stat. The faculty here is great and have deep knowledge and understanding in their subjects however you might face difficulty in coping up at few moments if you are a non-bengali. Also, some teachers have a high pace of teaching so you might find it difficult to catch things in an instance. Also, some handful of teachers who teach us minor subjects use Bengali throughout. There are practical, mid-semester, and semester exams which take place every semester which is of around 6 months.

The course is very educative. There are real life experiences given to the students through field assignments, group projects, frequent tests. The professors are also very effective in their jobs. There are even smart board learnings..

After graduating, the students become eligible for placement and the campusing is very important and also the internships play a major role here. There are many big companies that visit the campus as, Microsoft, Infosys etc. They make a huge offer to these students because the skills, they learn through this curriculum, are highly demanded. According to the records, highest package is around 22 LPA and average package is nearly 12 LPA. Students get placements according to their learnings, so there is no guaranteed percentage. I have no plans till now.

Specifically in the case of curriculum there are so many practical classes so that a student can be prepared for the real world application. The curriculum syllabus and professor of my college are so good in teaching and in other helps as well just like we celebrate comfortable to share our personal problem with them. The area for improvement in the course curriculum and teaching method I would suggest to provide good computer teacher.

The placement cell of the college brings companies and you can apply for a job according to their wants. There are companies like ZXomato, Microsoft, google , etc. that visited our college and as far as i heard the average packakage is 600000 LPA

I am pursuing CA and the college requires only 4 hrs and it has a good brand recognition which influenced me to choose this college but internally this college faculty is not as good as the brand is. The college exams are conducted very seriously.

The course is strictly based on CA,CS format and the course have high level of difficulties if you are not pursuing CA or CS. The teacher teaches well but the should focus more on students who are not pursuing CA because they are the one who face lot of difficulties during exams.
