Ramnath's Review On Government College Of Technology - [GCT], Coimbatore

Keep the greenery intact keep the balance of freedom all the time.

There was a separate entrance exam during my time but that is removed now. The cutoff calculation nowadays is (maths/2)+(physics/4)+(chemistry/4). A minimum cutoff of 285 can hope to get into GCT, CBE.

The college follows autonomous curriculum and plays bad with setting up question papers during my 3rd semester, 90% of us failed in maths. They kept a supplementary exam where many of us passed. It still somewhat counted as an arrears though faculty you can find both types friendly, approachable, highly skilled ones and the total opposite.

Tcs and cts took most of the guys in my batch 60% only around 5% of the folks remained not placed.

Oracle is the technical symposium jointly hosted by instrumentation and electrical departments. It is highly streamlined and gets participation from many reputed colleges.

Hostel you will find it hard at first but soon grow to love it. It is sharing only and there are plenty rooms available.Fees you cannot find rooms this cheap anywhere else note that the college itself is in a prime location mess food great for a hostel mess but you have plenty of options outside as well.

There is a caste scholarship but i don't know about anything lately.

This is generally 50/50 in departments like ECE, EEE, CS & IT. the count of girls will be less in other departments.Diversity is very good since this is a government institution and the seats are purely on a merit basis (plus caste quota) not much in terms of extracurricular, labs, sports, competitions etc.,

Nothing to brag about. but the college is open to anyone, so you don't have to formally have a alumni network. You can pretty much go there anytime, visit hostels, talk to juniors or staff, extend guidance what not!!
