SJCC: Is the hype worth it?

Some specific aspects of the curriculum that influenced my decision to choose this course was the broad nature of subjects offered that will help us to gauge our interests and then go for a specialization in our careers and further studies. The teaching methods can be better adapted towards application than just theoritical understanding. The exams from my perspective are easy to moderate.

The companies that came for internship included Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. Roles offered included Financial Analyst Intern and Operations Analyst intern. Stipend was 30,000 INR per month and 33,000 INR per month respectively.

I had applied for Jain (Deemed-to-be University), St. Joseph's University, Symbiosis School of Economics, Christ (Deemed-to-be) University and Dr B R Ambedkar School of Economics. I got confirmed admissions from Jain, St. Joseph's University, and Christ University. I chose this college over the others due to its reputation and the proximity to my area of residence. I got rejected from Dr BR Ambedkar School of Economics as I did not fulfill the eligibility criteria. When I had applied in 2022, the admission process was in two stages: Selection test, followed by interview and document verification. The cutoff for the test was the college's discretion. We had to have an aggregate of atleast 50% in our class 12 exams to apply. The overall admissions were smooth.

Some of the faculty members are approachable while the others are not. While some faculty help in in person doubt solving, others expect you to get it cleared in class itself. Currently the best faculty we have is for Income Tax. Ma'am is very approachable and an excellent teacher. While the other teachers are kind, their teaching is not the best. There are two examinations : Mid-semester and End-semester. The course curriculum is still more focused on theoritical concepts rather than industry-relevant.

I had written test, given to test our understanding of basic commerce concepts. This was followed by an interview to understand more about the candidate and further test their conceptualknowledge. I prepared for these rounds by going through my class 11 and 12 accounting and commerce books.
