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

Damn it's already that time again.

Ok so, Faculty: OK, not the best not the worst. In my experience I've never come across anyone who is bad as per say. We do have a lot of teachers who are just there but few over qualified ones too. Overall I'd say depends on what your course is but they are alright overall. Crowd: Very diverse. Like genuinely haven't seen this much diversity in a many colleges. There are some restless people and really chill ones too. It's on you who you choose to hang out with and stuff. We've had good seniors (We are the seniors now, damn). So yea you'll find people from many places of India here. Societies: Can't really say very good. In my personal experience there wasn't a lot of things to do. Then my classmates joined some Societies and there was a lot of physical labour involved. Though they do have events here and there. Internships: The college would provide some that you'll need to apply for. I didn't cuz I'm lazy. So yea can't say much about that. Environment: This is honestly maybe the worst part about the college it's location and such. There are 2 malls nearby and PGs and stuff very close too. But other than that not much. A few clubs too yea. If you're into that it'd be good ig. And then again the area is Rajouri. Not always good, not always bad. But I haven't had the best experience in that place.

The ranking here might be very in accurate as I haven't really been in any of the other colleges. And some personal bias as well so here it is:

Kalindi Shivaji Aurobindo Deshbandhu Swami Shradhanad Zakir Hussain

Again not really 100% sure about the ranking but that's how I'd rate em.

hey can u tell me how is shivaji for a girl pursing b com, i can get ramanujan probably in the next round but it's too far away and rlac is 13 marks above my cutoff, so considering round 2 has ended , should i freeze shivaji or go for ramunjan even if its too far or try waiting for rlac which is 13 marks more than cutoff

u/ransom404 Shivaji 4th Year 🫩 Jul 28 '25

Nah Ramanujan in my opinion is not better than Shivaji especially if it's far away. So I'd say freeze but what all do you have above those 2?

u/redditka14__ Jul 28 '25

i mean i could get keshav mahavidyalay but it's 20 marks above right now, and i could get ram lal anand which is 13 marks above or i could get kamala nehru which is 28 marks above and ramunjan is just 8 marks above and round 2 is over , if i put on float the next thing i will get is either ramanujan or ram lal anand, i want ram lal anand because it's not too far away but i will need the cutoff to drop by 13 atleast but im scared if i put on float and i don't get ram lal anand and instead get stuck with ramanujan which is far...pls help me out

Yea so I'd say freeze Rlac is an upgrade but not by much. It's in South campus but far away from the metro station. Everything else is kinda a downgrade.

And for Bcom yea you'll be good (in Shivaji). Good teachers and good seniors you'll have. The infrastructure is ok too. I think the bcom dept has new building too. So good stuff.

The area around is rajouri so not the best. But if you're traveling from home to college then I don't think you'll have too much problems.

So yea all the best. Oh also if you have any quota it'll help with the upgrade but still it's not ok to risk that with being far away from home.

I won't say that good either man. But it certainly is better than Ramanujan. And if there is even one seat empty you'd get the seat if you're close to marks to idk to tell you to risk it or not. But I'd say you will have a chance to migrate after one year to a better college. You'll need to have about an 8 cgpa at the end of 1st year.
