- The faculty and their teaching methods with presentations and practical examples
- The vast playing field, badminton/volleyball court and basketball court among others help students to relax
Dislikes
- The canteen is a but over-priced and doesn't meet the hype it had. Same goes for the in-campus cha stall.
- The syllabus is too enormous and it would be great if it's compartmentalised into two or more papers
Course Curriculum Overview:
The program curriculum encompasses Biological Sciences as well as it could have been. It is very elaborate comprising every branches from Instrumemtation and Methodologies to Cell Biology, Genetics or Molecular Biology for that matter. You are ought to have three theory papers and two practical and Grand VIVA papers each semester with a total of 4 semesters over two years. In the last semester, you need to prepare your dissertation. The papers include all the basic concepts and their applications and demands hard hours. I believe the syllabus can be relaxed a bit and the number of papers per term expanded and compartmentalised so as to reduce the load of individual papers. All the faculties are very supportive and Friendly and appreciate doubts and queries always.

- Environment- The environment at Presidency is so good. There is greenery everywhere. And college is full of aesthetics.
- Course Curriculum is quite good. It helps you shape in a better version of yourself.
Placement Experience:
Placements opportunity are actually very good in this college. For UG-courses, students are eligible from the 5th semester and for PG courses, from the 3rd semester onwards, they are eligible for on-campus placements. Many good companies visit campus. All the details are available on the website. The placement cell is very active and ensures a higher number of placements.
Course Curriculum Overview:
I had a knack for Biology. Tried for Medical entrance, didn't make it. So, took the entrance exams of Zoology and Botany at Presidency College. In Zoology, I was behind in the merit list, didn't make it up to the cut. Ended up with Botany. Student to faculty ratio was 1:2, for 26 students in a batch, the Botany department(now Biological Science) had 13 faculty. Obviously, not all faculty took classes simultaneously in a year. Most of the faculty was old school, chalk-blackboard oriented. It changed dramatically in five years I studied till Masters, as Presidency became University. Teachers retired, new foreign return faculty were recruited. Bachelor exams were difficult. Since bachelor in Presidency was under Univerisity of Calcutta, and marks were hard to get. These two changed after college became deemed university. I was there during the transition of the institute, it might look confusing now.
Remarks:
Good : Admission process is quite easy consisting of 1 exam PUMDET, followed by declaration of results on the website, 1 day verification of documents happen. Nice professors, good lab facility, class conditions very good, all equipped with AC and projector, syllabus made in accordance with NET syllabus, course helps to learn new techniques that will be useful in upcoming years(for PhD)Bad : Presidency keeps a quota for old B. Sc students and also takes new students through examination, this creates a divide as ex-students consider themselves to be superior, that creates tension amongst students and sometimes dirty politics as well.
Remarks:
Reputation of this university as a college, it's excellence and updated syllabus, exam pattern, updated teaching pattern, low teacher student ratio, Freedom of speech these are the main reason behind my choosing this university.
Remarks:
I love my college. Our University is near about perfect. Faculty is good, there is so much space and positive environment that we can think of. We as students do and fulfill our duties. Even we fight for any propaganda of our government doing. The only problem we r facing is the communication with our Vice Chancellor. She is very stiff and often deny our demands.
Remarks:
The college does what it promises, that is, quality education. Apart from that, I feel the management could be alot better and organised unlike now. And also the cash counter could be expanded a little since it gets very crowded during fee payment. But otherwise everything else about this college is great.
Entrance Preview:
The college has an entrance examination which is be given only for admission into the particular college. I ranked 13th in the entrance examination.
