Course Curriculum Overview
The course I have chosen is electrical and electronics engineering. The curriculum covers topic like microprocessor , digital electronics, analog electronics, DC machines, circuits, control system etc which are very relevant to the future. The curriculum prepare you somewhat like OK in real world applications. In my opinion there should be more practical sessions. The frequency and timings of exam are OK . Difficulty varies in each semester.

From S6 onwards students will be able to sit in placements drive. In my college the placement is just OK. Many companies visited and above 100 offers were made.

Admission
I opted for many other colleges like GEC Thrissur, MACE Kothamangalam, GCE Kannur etc. but I got admission in GEC Palakkad. The reason was my 12th score was not that good enough. KEAM entrance exam take both the entrance exam mark and 12th mark as 50:50. The exam accepted by my college is KEAM. Cut-off varies. You could always check previous year cut off. The admission experience was good
Faculty
Faculty to students ratio is 1:13. Faculty is very friendly and approachable. They will help you in both academic and non academic activities. I don't like to disclose names but the overall faculty experience is good. There are 2 internal exam for each semester and they are a moderate level difficult. A little students fail the exam.
Night Life
The college have its own gym, library and public areas. The gym is OK and the library is open upto 5 PM. The night life is good. The campus is open upto 10 PM. And the hostel timing is same as that. Some hostel timing for girls is around 9:00 PM. The campus itself have somany hangout places.
