Questions Asked On Sona College of Technology, Salem

What is your review of Sona College of Technology?

MA
Mridul Arora Posted On : June 18th, 2021
Studied at Sona College of Technology (2020)

After a critical analysis of Sona College of Technology, my cousin analyzed the pattern followed by the engineering colleges all over India.

Here is what she has to say about her experience from her time as a student of that college:

  • It is a private college and she strongly advises looking for other, better options.
  • The faculty is inexperienced and the faculty is not in touch with what they are imparting.
  • This college is not the right place for foreign students. The students come through counseling and most of them have never heard about IITs or the AIEEE and/or JEE exams. Their IQ is low.
  • The college system is absolutely horrible. They do not care about your interests or goals.
  • If you are a foreign student, then go for NITs and/or II(I)Ts. Or you can opt for studying in some country or stay back in your native country.
  • Most of the teaching staff as well the non-teaching staff verbally abuses the students and more often than not in public.

Despite the college having a good reputation when it comes to providing opportunities, there are a lot of drawbacks.

The faculty demands to be ‘respected’. Some of the teachers pry into the personal lives of their students and use that against them. The staff uses unfair scrutiny while signing records and attendances. They unfairly judge the students and belittle them thus, denting their self-esteem. Partiality is rampant in this institute. No wonder my acquaintance had such a traumatic experience in college.
