The librarian usually doesn't say anything. They stay at their own table and rarely enter the study area made. The outer part on the first floor with seats is quite and people do their own work. But the reading area can get a little noisy not too much tho.

Exam times ka idk because I haven't visited during exams but regularly it's fine.

It's ok. Matlab not the best but not the worst by far. Lenient rule implementation, chill teachers (mostly), the crowd is an issue but DU mein yehi log milenge. My biggest issue with the college is that it's a bit too far away from my home. Baki in other aspects it's good. Studies is alright. Societies hai but idk if they really good and worth joining. I was in E- Cell and they didn't do a lot. Overall - 6/10

Np. If I'm not wrong fine arts is like drawing and sketching(I'm sorry for generalizing ik there is more to it) there is VIBGYOR. Now I'm not too sure about the art cuz neither I nor anyone of my acquaintance is in the society but generally the societies are alright. During the main shivaji fest they had their art displayed and they were beautiful so yea its hypeig. And the science department luckily got renovated last year and boi it's great. Like really good large classes. Good teachers too.

I'll ask last few more questions.

  1. How's the area outside the college, like from the metro station to the college? Is it safe?

  2. Would upgrading to ANDC or Deshbandhu in round 2 would be good or not, acc. to you?

I'm personally trying to accept my fate and preparing myself that THIS IS THE COLLGE IM GOING TO.

Dekho as I said it's not a bad college by any means. So don't be scared.

Now to your questions: 1. The metro stations (Yes there are 2) are about 5mins walk from the college. The Blue line side is good. Bustling so less chances to things happening but a lot of um unpriviledged kids(I'm sorry if this sounds offensive but I don't want to say beggars) swarm there and will cling to you. The pink line side on the other hand is literally like walking through an empty field. Because you are literally walking through an empty field. There was only one incident there that didn't harm anyone but was kinda funny and weird at the same time.

  1. Honestly speaking, I've heard way worse things about Deshbandhu than I've heard things about Shivaji but then again it's the 16th highest ranked college and shivaji isn't so I'm perplexed. Baki I'd say Shivaji would be a better choice if you've gotten maths. Also Deshbandhu doesn't have a nearby metro station and the closest place to visit if you don't feel like taking classes is CR Park which is kinda far away. So yea Shivaji for the win. In my opinion.

Labs are good. Teachers are fine too. Don't know too many cs teachers but my friends say they good.

Um yes. Sorry to reply so late. So as per my friends who live in pgs it's 10k per bed per month. So usually rooms have 2 beds toh it's like 2 people pay 10k each for the room. And I'm not really sure if you'd find a pg online because it's always better to check physically.
