Overall: I have a sometimes good - felling for it and sometimes bad -felling for it. However, the real world studies are not anything to joke about and you'll get the best education quality if you really invest the effort. The latter is true if you will not just sit there and act like you will not gain from anything.
Placement: This is the best thing that they've got, a solid resume and a good filter idea of recruiting companies especially the STEM areas. they are professionally promoting their career fairs quite attractive!.
Faculty: This, indeed, is one of the areas where college really stands out. In most cases here, the professors are just the opposite, pleasant, smart, and they really care to see you bloom in finishes and not just paychecks collectors.
Hostel: this is a tough call, no doubt. Finally, if you don't end up in one of a few new dorms, live with prepare to sardine. Space-building roommates, relationship breaking down with the flimsy walls, and rusty facilities which cause nightmares.
