Remarks

College management is the best thing about sxccal. No commotion within the college and complete peace describes our college. Everything is carried out systematically.

Entrance Preview

Admission was on the basis of higher secondary marks. I scored about 94% on the whole. Marks for the best of four subjects were considered. No interview is necessary for the purpose of admission.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The course curriculum mainly focuses on the basics of statistics without going into much details. External studies and self studies are essential if the focus is mainly on research. Moreover the semester system cuts short the course period. However the course provides an overall idea about the subject.

Internships Opportunities

The college provides internships but i have had no experience of any internship. Seniors have mentioned good experiences at internships that they have availed. The general stipend is around 20000.

Placement Experience

4

Numerous companies including google, ibm etc come for camp using and packages as huge as 12 lacs pa are provided immediately after bachelor's degree. The placement cell of the college manages and deals with the companies and provides a bridge between the companies and the students.

College Events

4.5

Events include the main college fest Xavotsav which is held on the month of January every year. Other societies like xadam( dance and music), Bengali literary society, drama society etc have their own fests such as goonj, xavullas etc. Each department celebrate there own seminars, department fests etc.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is feasible. No extra charges are payable to the college for any fests or any other purposes. The monthly fees for sxccal is about 2000. The admission fees paid at the very beginning included all other expenses including examination fees, money for fests etc.

Fees and Financial Aid

The college does not provide any scholarships or loan facilities. Neither have seniors availed any such facility. However full co operation is provided for availing scholarships from other sources.

Campus Life

4.5

Everyone on Xavier's campus is helpful. Gender ratio is about 3:2. Labs are very well arranged and maintained. Annual sports day is celebrated every February. Over the year students engage themselves in various sports, cultural programmes. Social work, guided by nss is compulsory for all students. Programmes on women empowerment and other sensitive social issues are held. The students council operates peacefully without any political intervention.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

Hostel facilities, as heard from friends who avail the facilities, are good enough. There is Strict surveillance on studies. Canteen food is good. No information of food poisoning from college food. Rotten food is never served. Those who cannot avail college hostel live as paying guests or on rent.

Alumni/Alumna

Senior students of our department have been exceptionally helpful. Not only about academics, they were at our rescue for any other problem faced in college.

Exam Structure

The exams are held very systematically. A day is mentioned before hand for form fill up. Date of Collection of admit card is also notified previously. No delay is made on these two occasions. Routine of the exams are put up on the college notice board. Any change in the routine is notified. Exams are held on time, sincerely and peacefully.

Admission

Procured the form from college website. A list was produced by the college containing names of selected student. Date and time of admission was notified through email. Admission was smooth.It did not take long. We were properly guide for all the necessary steps required for admission including submission of forms, birth certificate, results, identity proof and the admission fees.

Faculty

3

All professors of the statistics department are highly qualified. However there is some lack of interest in teaching among some of them. Moreover sticking strictly to the syllabus and not going beyond it at all is a salient feature of the faculty. This might be because of the time constraint.

Placement Experience:

People who major in my department usually opt for masters over placement not because of this college but because overall industrial or academic opportunities are better with a pg degree. Masters from this college is not recommended as i have heard so from my seniors. Some of my seniors managed to crack competitives and secure MSc seats at great places. Training and Placement cell had a good coordinator previously but now its almost non existent. Companies do come and hire Bpharm, Mpharm and MSc candidates. Packages are below average. Only Nestle pays well. But if you do well you'll eventually climb up the corportate ladder. From the time i am here i have not heard of any BSc candidate getting placed. Most go for higher studies.

Placement Experience:

The average package offered for such roles ranges between ?2–3 LPA, while the highest package offered to a BSc student is around ?4 LPA, depending on skills and specialization. Overall, around 15–20% of BSc students get placed through campus drives, and many students rely on off-campus opportunities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum was well thought out as per me but there were subjects that i found absolutely unnecessary. Subjects like history evs and clc were in no way related to my course. Coming to the main subjects Design, Printing, Photography and film and Media Training were absolutely necessary for my course and whilst the faculty for some of these subjects were really bad, some were good. It is also important to mention none of these subjects actually helped us prepare for the real world. Instead internships and freelance helped us more than these subjects could ever do. Exams were held bi monthly to keep track of what we learnt and every 6 months we had our semester exams. Overall if you want to be a media professional INTERNSHIPS AND JOBS WILL HELP YOU MORE THAN A COLLEGE WILL. I am biased on this opinion as my college didnt provide me with the correct guidance and support i needed to make it in the real world.

* It's all about practical knowledge, we are getting from this course and another aspect is if you wants to make your career in research or lecturer then you should go for it. *No changes required in teaching methods but if college will provide hostel facilities and campus requirement drive, then it will better for candidates.
