Career in JSS College of Pharmacy, Mysuru

The pattern of curriculum is really helpful for the students to develop their skills as they take a final exam in each semester. They provide both theory as well as practical knowledge. I personally dont appreciate the teaching methods because they focus more on theory exams and focus less on our practical knowledge. The knowledge of pharmacy in terms of practical application is not provided or taught enough by the faculties. Every sessional exams which r held in each semester is of one hour which includes 10 minutes for mcqs and 50 minutes for theory. Each semester exams os of 2 hours which includes 20 minutes for mcqs and 1 hour 40 minutes for theory. The difficulty of exam ranges from easy to moderate, with dedicated study and proper information students cam crack the exams with excellent marks.

I live in the girls hostel provided by the college. The hostel is clean and well maintained. The aesthetics of the hostel also adds to merits of college. Its a full furnished hostel.

Evening snacks are available in the mess from 5:30 to 6:00 pm. Dinner starts from 7:30 till 9:00 pm. As a student from Kerala i personally didn't like the mess food. The food is extremely tasteless and bland. They do not provide nutritious food for the students. Several health issues are caused due to the mess food.

I applied to Ramaiya College of pharmacy in Banglore, SRM college in Chennai and Amity University. I got selected in all the colleges but i chose JSS College of Pharmacy as they have highest NIRF ranking in India. The college ranks 6th in India according to NIRF. I chose JSS College because i wanted to do Pharm D, but i couldn't join as i was late for the admission due to Neet exam.In some colleges i got rejected because i couldn't crack the entrance exam dure to the difficulty level of the exams. Eligibility criteria of the college:- student must pass 10+2 with biology, physics and chemistry. Diploma students can also take the admission and do the course as lateral entry students.

According to my opinion, most of the faculties are not supportive to the needs of the student. I personally like Dixit sir and prabhita maam so far, as they r helpful and consider our needs. Each there are overall eight semester in four years. Each year has two semester exams. Each semester consists of two sessional exams which is of 30 marks including theory and practicals and one final semester which is of 75 marks.Passing rate is high for our college as they provide important questions and materials needed for the exam. They provide excellent teaching pattern which helps the students to exceed in the exams.
