Gokhale Memorial Girls' College Kolkata, BA, Communicative English

Reviewed on Jan 28, 2020

Remarks

I am very proud of my college. I am grateful to the faculty and the principal who have supported us throughout. Though my college is strict, the strictness is worth the time spend in the college. I am happy to be a part of Gokhale.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course was amazing. I have got to learn a lot from my college. Discipline, systematic and we'll organised are few things I have received from this college. I have learnt how to communicate in a better manner, interview preparation, skills to communicate, confidence and interpersonal skills

Placement Experience

I got placed at the Tata Consultancy Services through college placement. I am very grateful to my college to have given me this opportunity. I am glad to be a part of such an instituition. My college has always been a great support

College Events

3.5

We participated in various events like Xavotsav and Umang. We had had several events where the students took part and showcased a lot about their own course. We took part in various sport, dance, singing events conducted by other colleges.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is feasible. But a few things need to change. The internet fee is not at all required. We hardly used the college internet. Apart from that the facilities provided by mu college was great and the fee structure was affordable.

Fees and Financial Aid

I do not know any such facility. But there was a scheme for the students who were less privileged. They were provided money facility by the government of west Bengal. Our college supported such students.

Campus Life

Yes. We have had sports days. We have been taken to picnic. We had a ground where we used to play badminton. We took part in Basketball, badminton and throw ball activities. We had a team who used to play the particular sport.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

The hostel structure was good. They provided safe stay and shelter. I have heard from my friends that the hostel was a very safe and secure place. They had no worries even if they were an outstation candidate

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

I have several senior friends who have been of great support. They have helped me with academics and projects. They have provided me study material and books. They have supported me with my internship and alot of projects.

Admission

My name was there in the merit list after which there was a session in college. The selection procedure depend on the academic. There were many candidates. I feel lucky that I could be a part of such an instituition.

Faculty

One of the things i liked the most was the quality of lecture given by the professors
The campus is very spacious the college has every facility
A fully equipted studio and lab for Journalism students

Dislikes

Things i disliked was the most has to be the locality the college is really nice but the locality is a bit shady

Course Curriculum Overview:

I always wanted to take up Journalism as a career and the thing which caught my attention in this college is that they have a fully equipted studio room and other colleges may have one but the students even publish there own news report here it prepars us very well for the real world

My Experience at Jaipuria to summed it up.

Likes

Quality education and an academically enriching environment. Most importantly, well- versed professors.
Extra- curriculum activities, along with an active sports cell and NCC, and usually various opportunities to participate in Inter-College Competitions.
Well maintained gym with separate timings for girls and boys. The canteen offers a wide variety of foods at an affordable price.

Dislikes

For my department, there was no educational excursion.
Negligence internship opportunities are available for my course.
Only some placement opportunities are available, and companies like TCS and Wipro came up for campus placement.

Course Curriculum Overview:

My passion and a bit of curiosity in International Relations led me to choose this course. The curriculum, in fact, prepared me well for further academic pursuits. For improvement, educational excursions and internship opportunities should be made available. The exam is held twice a year on semester basis, with papers set at a moderate to difficult level.

A balanced view of campus life and learning

Likes

The English department has experienced and supportive teachers. Most professors explain concepts clearly and encourage discussions, close reading and critical thinking.
The course is very affordable, especially compared to private colleges. With scholarships, it becomes accessible for students from middle and lower income backgrounds.
The college has a friendly and diverse student crowd. The girls to boys ratio is balanced with slightly more female students, which creates a comfortable learning atmosphere.

Dislikes

The infrastructure needs improvement. Classrooms and common areas could be better maintained and modern facilities are limited.
There are very few placement opportunities for arts students.
Although some academic events take place, extracurricular activities and active student societies could be improved for better campus life.

Placement Experience:

There are limited on campus placement opportunities here, especially for Arts and Eng Hons students. Most students focus on higher studies, competitive exams or off campus opportunities after graduation. The college provides basic guidance through teachers but formal placement drives are rare.

Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira: A Life Changing Experience

Likes

The college has an ideal atmosphere for studying and the hostel accommodation allowed for close bonding with seniors who helped us out in studies as well as personal matters. The teachers are extremely talented and treated us with care and respect.
It is an all boys college and it is without any doubt a ragging-free campus. There is anti-ragging cell as well as student councelling cell available on the campus to help out with these issues.
The experience of hostel life and the close sense of community that is formed during my stay has been instrumental in my growth and the strict implementation of discipline in our daily lives enriched me and changed my life for the better.

Dislikes

The administration is not always the best. Applications, forms, seminars and event permits all required a long time to get approved by the authorities as most of the time it meant compromising our strict schedule as it is a residential college.
The average food quality in the mess could be better. Again it is not always the best but for the most part it is decent.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum provides a comprehensive retrospective of literature from the Old English period to Modern period, while also including English works by Indian authors to demonstrate the diversity and evolution of English literature over the years. The current curriculum I believe requires more seminars and lectures from guest faculties on contemporary research and topics.

I applied to 6 big renowned colleges including Lady Brabourne and Bethune. However the cut off was pretty high there. Normally Gokhale has the cut off of minimum 85% in English. I was also eligible to get admission to Maulana Azad College and Jaipuria College. But I chose Gokhale because of the good reviews....Read More

One of the Best college in India.

I had applied for Ashutosh college, Muralidhar college, bethun college and Gokhale Memorial Girl's College for BSC psychology. But I did not get BSC psychology in bethune college so I was waiting for other colleges though my dream college was Gokhale Memorial girls College. First I had got a call from Muralidhar college and then after 2 to 3 days I got a call from vocal Memorial girls College. By call I meant that first my name came in the Muralidhar girls College merit list and then my name was published in the Gokul Memorial girls College merit list as this is my dream college I choose it over other colleges. So I don't regret my decision because, this college has excellent professors and great labs for practicing psychological practicals. Moreover the academics like the syllabus the practical syllabus are taken care and the college finishes each and every topic and benefits us to learn more....Read More

Do not go by the past glory.

The admission was smooth, but in the payment process, I didn't get my money back from few colleges I applied for but didn't continue. All the candidates should keep an update of news and links of admission. SC and ST will get benifits along with OBCs, Calcutta University has bad placements and the syllabus has become a Little bit difficult. Instead opt for a college where there is better placement....Read More
