My_ Dream
Hey, so I just got admission in this college and I went for BPT. My experience during the time of admission was so bad that it's hard to even recall the experience.We were called by 9.30 and given a room with no mentor. Parents and students were searching blind for the room of counseling and nobody was really helping.Anyways, after finally gathering inside, the procedure started at 11. So all of us were just sitting, some sleeping, rest just taking pictures and other parents running around to gather information and push their children forward in the eyes of the heads.Some of us were made to sit till 4:30PM whilst the heads had their breaks and having friendly banter in an AC room. No aid or assistance given to the children waiting for their names to be called. They had a very weird approach for counselling. They called the name of the students according to their caste and not according to the rank. Instead of assisting the students already present on time, they kept waiting for those who didn't show up.Then when I was finally called in, there was this old man who was so rude and not helpful at all. It felt like he had some major insecurities and he was peojecting those on us by yelling and belittling us for not knowing what to do. He was a nightmare to deal with.My family and I travelled a long distance to be here and we finally got free at 5PM empty stomachs and tired.Also they didn't mention the documents required for the counselling properly as two docs were not mentioned in the brochure but needed there. Overall, I had a shitty time there. Nobody was humble or helpful, you had to look out for yourself on your own.

I have mainly interacted with the PT and OT department. OT is where you do exercises on equipments based upon your body pain and soreness in your body parts. The exercises are effective and are conducted under the supervision of trainees and interns. They regularly register your entries and closely supervise the body posture during and after exercises. You will find a change for improvement after 15 days of exercises. The equipments for the same are in good condition.The PT department is also neat and well-maintained. It’s where do they electrode therapy and ultrasound therapy for your back ache, shoulder ache and other body aches. The doctors are cooperative and give diligent if not undivided attention. After few weeks you start to feel the positive effects of it
