REVIEW OF KHALSA COLLEGE OF PHARMACY AMRITSAR

I CHOOSE PHARMACY BECAUSE I WANT TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE OF MEDICINES AND I THINK THAT THE CURRICULUM IS PRETTY MUCH RELEVANT IF SOMEONE HAVE INTEREST IN PHARMACY CAREER BUT I THINK THERE IS BURDEN ON THE STUDENT LIKE 9 TO 5 SCHEDULE AND THERE IS CHANGING OF SUBJETS IN EVERY SEMESTER SO THERE IS NOT MUCH TIME FOR STUDENT TO LEARN MORE I THINK LENGTH OF THE LECTURE SHOULD BE 40 MINS MAX FROM 1 HR AND LENGTH OF LAB SHOULD BE 2 HR MAX FROM 3 HR AND MORE PRACTICAL WORK SHOULD BE THERE INSTEAD OF COMPLETING FILES I THINK 9AM TO 3PM SCHEDULE WILL BE PERFECT AND MORE PRACTICAL WORK SHOULD BE THERE TIMING OF EXAMS-MST EXAMS 2 TIMES IN A SEMESTER BY COLLEGE AND THEN FINAL SEM EXAM CONDUCTED BY PTU DIFFICULTY LEVEL DEPENDS ON THE SUBJECT AND THE STUDENT ACCORING TO ME SUBJECTS LIKE MEDICINAL,HAP ETC ARE DIFFICULT

FROM 8TH SEMESTER FEW COMPANIES COME AND TAKE INTERVIEWS COMPANIES LIKE JACKSON,RANBAXY,SYSTA CARE ETC WHICH IS IN AMRITSAR VISIT THE COLLEGE HIGHEST PACKAGE 350000 PER YEAR I THINK SALARY PACKAGE OFFERED IS LOW BUT IT ALSO DEPENDS ON THE ABILITY OF THE STUDENT.SOME STUDENTS WHO DIDN'T LIKE THE PACKAGE OFFERED GO IN MARKETING FIELD AS A MR. PLACEMENT PERCENTAGE IS BETWEEN 30-40% I THINK PLACEMENT COULD BE BETTER

In my first year i paid almost 106000.At the time of admission i gave 54000 which is my 1st semester fees from which 10000 was one time registration fees, 24000 tution fees and 20000 remaining lab and development fees and in 2nd semester i paid 52000 [not include registeration fees]' We also have to purchase uniform in the first semester which costed me around 2600/- which includes blazer, shirt ,pant and tie. When semester paper comes there is fees of 1500 at the time of exams which we have to submit online from PTU portal.[for regular paper] Reappear fees is 1550 and reevaluation fees is 2100/-per paper There are SC category students in my class and their fees is 40000 per year. There is scholarship for SC category students which is B.R ambedkar scheme and for toppers 1st 2nd and 3rd rank student in the all colleges under PTU will get 75% ,50% and 25% scholarship of total fees accordingly. There is also fatherless concession of 25% of tution fees which is 6000/- per semester and college gives check to the student so that he/she can deposit in the bank

FESTIVALS LIKE YOUTH FESTIVAL AND SPORTS FESTIVAL HAPPENS ONCE IN A YEAR AND GOES FROM 1-2 WEEKS.I PARTICIPATED IN CARROM COMPETETION AND WINS 3RD PRIZE.STUDENTS FROM DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS COME AND PARTICIPATE IN ALL THE FESTS. BOOKS ARE PROVIDED FREE BY LIBRARY CARD BUT 3RS PER DAY CHARGE IS TAKEN AFTER TAKING FOR MORE THAN 20 DAYS AND ONLY 3 BOOKS ARE ISSUED AT A TIME. NO SUPPORT FROM FACULTY ON PLAYING SPORTS LIKE GAMES PERIOD OR PROVIDING SPORTS EQUIPMENTS FOR PHARMACY STUDENTS.

I GIVE ENTRANCE TEST OF GNDU AND I CLEARED THAT BUT THEN I CAME TO KNOW FROM MY FRIEND THAT LABS ARE NOT NEAT ,CLEAN AND WELL MAINTAINED AND SOMETIMES SHORTAGE OF CHEMICALS ALSO THERE. ADMISSION PROCESS OF MY COLLEGE IS BY ENTRANCE TEST AND COUNSELLING BOTH AND THEY ALSO CHECK THE PERCENTAGE OF 12TH CLASS.I TAKE ADMISSION DURING COVID BY COUNSELLING NO ENTRANCE TEST WAS TAKEN AT THAT TIME.OVERALL ADMISSION EXPERIENCE WAS GOOD I CHECKED THE LABS,CLASSES AND INFRA OF THE COLLEGE AND I LIKED THAT

FACULTY TO STUDENT RATIO IS ABOUT 50:1 APPROX I MOSTLY LIKED PRINCE SIR WHO TEACHES PHAMACOGNOSY AND NISHANT SIR WHO TEACHES PHARMACEUTICS AND ALSO ANMOL DOGRA SIR WHO TEACHES INDUSTRIAL PHARMACY.THE NATURE AND WAY OF TEACHING OF THESE TEACHERS ARE AMAZING AND ALSO THEY ARE VERY SUPPORTIVE FOR ALL STUDENTS. THERE IS NO TEACHER WHICH I DISLIKED BUT THERE ARE FEW YOUNG TEACHERES WHO DOES NOT HAVE THAT MUCH EXPERIENCE AND BELOW AVERAGE TEACHING SKILLS THERE ARE ALMOST 5-6 SUBJECTS IN A SEMESTER AND I THINK MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY AND PHARMACOLOGY ARE MOST TOUGH

THERE ARE MANY CAFE'S AND RESTRAUNTS TO GO WITH THE FRIENDS AROUND THE COLLEGE AND IN THE COLLEGE ALSO CAMPUS TIMING IS 9AM TO 5PM FAMOUS HANGOUT PLACES ARE UT MARKET,FOOD COURT AND RANJIT AVENUE KULCHA POINT WHICH IS FEW DISTANCE AWAY
