Course Curriculum Overview

5

The course is relevant and upto date with all the facts, rules and regulations. The course contains a wide view about the commerce and its types. It also covera the part of taxation that is relevant for the current financial year and contains learning about the financial management in different aspects.

Internships Opportunities

5

There are some top companies that hire the students on the basis of their skills. You need to have some extraordinary skills so that the companies can show some interest in you and hire you. Your hiring and package depends on your skills.

Placement Experience

3

The college also has a placement cell and it provides a average package of 5 Lakh rupees. I'm currently pursuing Company Secretary course along with my graduation. So the college placement doesn't really matter for me alot.

Fees and Financial Aid

The only fees which is payable for each semester is ?10000 which is paid as registration fees. No other extra charges such as lab fees, admission fees, etc. is payable. I highly recommend this college to the students who are preparing for any competitive exam.

Campus Life

4

Don't expect a outstanding college life in this college as this is a distance learning college and you only attend the classes twice a week in physical mode. However you can make new friends during your semester exam which helps you increase your social aura.

Hostel Facilities

1

There is no hostel room provided from the side of college as it is a open learning college. However you get to make new friends and socialise with them in your study centres that is provided to the students.

Admission

I've applied to different private colleges for this course and I got selected also but i don't wanted to get stuck with the attendance criteria of all the colleges and then i found this college that has no attendance requirements which helped me in pursuing other competitive exams and it gave me time to spread my view on different categories available in the market.

Faculty

5

Despite being a distance learning college the college establishes a very good relationship among the teachers and students. All the faculties are helpful and help the students when in need. The faculties clear the doubts of the students in a very understanding manner.

Interview Experience

5

There is not group discussion, interview or any type of test that is needed at the time of admission. It is a open learning college and admission is done irrespective of any kind of tests and all. Feel free to take admission

Night Life

2

There is no nightlife for this college as this is a open learning college. Students don't get a hostel facility. You can hangout inside your centres that is provided to you for studying twice a week and make new friends.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Well i choose this course because I didn't got what I wanted. Many students are from arts background who got this course because they had no option. The curriculum is same as school all chapters and everything. The law section is new. About buisness and law and everything. Rest is same. Changes in curriculum is not in their hands. But if they could actually change the accounting syllabus. The timing of exams is normal 2:30 to 6:30. And internal test taken by perspective teacher are according to their time and class. They will take retest incase you didn't attended.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I really was interested in finance and taxation from the beginning. This course aligned rightly with my interests. The curriculum is based on real world applications. Corporate accounting, financial accounting, company law, human resource management, these are very important considering change in the job market and business world. Not only real world applications but one can also go for further academic pursuit such as a master's degree and research. This makes the curriculum really diverse. Some areas of suggestions would be that in theory subjects there should be practical activities. Just like vestibular training. The time of exams is just right. After the completion of syllabus of a particular subject, we are given 10 days of preparation leave. The exams are moderate and it really tests our ability and knowledge based on our studies.

Placement Experience:

The placement of my college is good if you perform well in the process of selection, as I told earlier, the placement cell is pretty active, so you would have a good number of options. I will be naming the good companies that visited my college, they were EY, Deloitte, DE SHAW, TCS, KPMG, etc. Numerous offers were made and I would say over 80% students in my batch got placed in good companies.

Course Curriculum Overview:

In open learning management.. they provide hard copy of books tk prepare whole semester and this is a very good thing because those books are covering whole semester in some books only and there is a v good thing I found... At the end of every chapter they provide summaries and mock questions for every chapter to analyse the weakness and strength. the areas for improvements in the Course Curriculum and Teaching Methods--- they should also provide a mock test paper as per the paper model and latest questions or updated topics with to the point topics The difficulty is normal if candidate is completely prepared...

Remarks:

Academically you can choose it but if you are looking for some fancy institution with some best infrastructure and fancy canteen I won't suggest you this college. But this college has one of the very best cricket team and one of our student named Mayank dagar is leading Indian National under-19 team. So I think you understand the impact.
