Verified Review

Academics

Most professors are really good and supportive. I have has the pleasure of learning from a few of them. Real cool people. But there exist a few which really need to either up their game or be slightly more considerate towards the students. The syllabus, atleast for EEE and the first year subjects needs to be slightly more updated I feel but again this needs time. If you do attend classes regularly, listen to the professors and are consistent enough scoring a good CGPA is not difficult at all.
