Isabella Thoburn Degree College Lucknow, B. A.

Reviewed on Dec 11, 2015

Remarks

Management- Unable to manage when it comes to handling crowd. Crowd becomes noisy and uncontrollable.

Entrance Preview

B. A. entrance exam and choose this college because of its easy access and reputation. I liked the college. The ambience and easy access to nearby shops of food and books/photocopy.

Course Curriculum Overview

The curriculum was up to date and latest and covered all topics needed. We had practicals and class projects to help us improve further in studies. The reference books were not available much in the library and we had had to make efforts for them. The library could be improved upon.

Internships Opportunities

In this college there was no internship undertaken as wasn't included in syllabus/curriculum. So no stipend of course. The practicals inside college were self-sufficient for us.

Placement Experience

0.5

No campus placements. Job opportunity- well, I am still struggling it. You have to go in for other courses as well after B. A. so this degree is not sufficient for job. One can get job of 7k per month after this degree.

College Events

The events are organized really very well so hats off to the staff and students for the same. Christmas day and planting trees are well celebrated. Gifts to poor children are distributed by college after collecting from students on x-mas day.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Yes they are expensive and I guess will increase as time passes by. One should take care of that or atleast make some scholarship available in that case.

Fees and Financial Aid

No, no scholarship in this college. I havent ever heard of anything like scholarship/fees excuse in this college.

Campus Life

2.5

Purely girls college so no co-ed. Hostel life bad, ruined. Workshops are many and frequently organized and attended. Sports - not much aware of that. College has basketball court but unused and used for canteen I guess.

Hostel Facilities

Haven't ever stayed in hostel but all hostels are worthless. The noise by students and ragging continues. The PG is also no different case. It is similar to hostel life-full of noise, bad food and ragging.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Raging is hat they do and are strict when comes to attending chapel every thursday. Not much ragging I guess as I have heard medical/engineering colleges are much prone to severe ragging. Counselling is must for such students who rag and for victims too. Personality development classes are held.

Exam Structure

Yes, of course exam do give headaches but are for our good future and so helpful as we revise our subject matter thoroughly. The lab practicals were also been taken by us. The noise by teachers and cheating by students should be taken care of due to which

Faculty

3.5

The faculty was good. The teachers really cooperated with us even when I left college. They made efforts from their side to make us understand the topics of curriculum well.

Perspective as a VCW student

Likes

Facility and infrastructure is really good . In facility we get good internet connection e.g , talking about labs too , we get well equipped class and materials needed for the test , sometimes it may be bit defective aur old.
Teachers are the best things about this college. Course curriculum are designed in the way that you cover everything about the topic infact , sec , aec courses are also designed in students favour only .
The campus area and environment is good too , you may find the campus area small but it's really beautiful and peaceful , there is gym , canteen , ground with basketball and badminton court . You may not get the top notch facility but its not worse.

Dislikes

The first thing could be interior and mangement of washrooms. Canteen could be more better and provide more options . In summer , other than library we get no other sitting area , except the open classroom which are in tolerable in heat.
The bus management is worse too, I left the bus service because of their management.
The fests are not worse but could be organized in more better way .

Course Curriculum Overview:

I personally find the curriculum to be well made and in favour wit the students. In teaching methods , the subjects that demand practical exposure should be given tasks to be conducted on the real life situation, like the opportunity we get during internship . They should provide task like that .

Great learning environment, experienced faculty, and value for money education.

Likes

The faculty members are very supportive, highly experienced, and always ready to help students with their queries.
The course fee is extremely affordable and provides great value for money for students in this region.
The campus has a peaceful learning environment with a good gender ratio of around 1:1 for boys and girls.

Dislikes

On-campus placement opportunities are limited, and students mostly need to look for off-campus jobs.
Campus infrastructure needs modernization, including better Wi-Fi access and updated lab equipment.
More practical exposure and industry-oriented training programs should be added to the curriculum.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because it covers all essential topics required for higher studies. The curriculum is detailed and helps build strong subject basics. Teaching methods are traditional, so adding more interactive sessions and skill-based learning would be a great improvement. Exams take place every semester along with internal class tests, which helps in continuous evaluation without extra stress

Likes

The fees is affordable in comparison to Delhi University.
The scholarship scheme is definitely helpful for those who are economically weak.
The main campus has a central library so its quite helpful

Dislikes

The books in the central library are quite outdated
The lack of infrastructure in the affiliated colleges of AU
No merit based scholarship scheme available for the students.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I'm from humanities background so the course is quite relevant for me. The course is quite outdated however it's the same for most of the universities. the curriculum should be aligned with the competitive exams and the teaching methods should be more inclusive about the competitive exams so that the student can prepare well not only for the present course but also further upcoming exams.

You can consider it if you aren't looking for any placement.

I didn't applied anywhere else as i was confused what to do so i got admission here. For taking admission you have to give the entrance exam conducted by Isabella thoburn college itself or you can also give Lucknow University entrance exam However i didn't gave any exam because i got admission through sfs format its self financed and has much more fees than students who got through exam....Read More

I was thinking to apply in the Lucknow university. But after seeing the competition there I thought I wouldn't give it a chance. So I only applied to this college because Isabella Thoburn College is one of the best known and popular colleges of Lucknow. I choose this college in the first go as I had complete trust on the education and facilities. The admission process is simple , you can apply online or take the offline admission form from the college after checking the eligibility for taking addmission in bsc biology you must have scored 55% above ,after filling the form you can submit it and then you will be asked to keep on checking the college website for the entrance exam date . Now you have to download your admit card if you applied online, or if you applied offline you were given the admit card with the form .Once you gave the exam , wait for a week or longer until your result. Log in and see your result. You will be given a regular seat or self finance one....Read More
