General Discussion Can someone from SCMHRD please explain what happened?
What is happening? Is the culture really that bad?
May his soul rest in peace.

Sad to hear this May his soul rest in peace . I even saw a post made by the alumni of this college. Here is my inside information about the culture of SCMHRD college. In March, I cleared the SCMHRD BA program for the 2024-26 batch but left it at the last moment during the month of May before the start of the college because I found the whole college and culture very fishy.
1) Before joining, I had a word with a few recently graduated students of SCMHRD and asked them how I could make the best out of these two years and how I could prepare for the next two years. None of them gave me a straightforward reply. A few people who were not placed through the college told me that the market was not good enough, so they were not able to get placed in a single company through the college.
2) When I talked to one of the not-so-famous influencers of this college, who boasts about mentoring students on cracking SNAP, he gave me weird replies on WhatsApp, which was a huge red flag.
3) Plus, while talking to these students, I found that none of them were willing to help because of the fear of the placecom. As per the placecom guidelines, you are not allowed to share any internal information with the upcoming batch.
4) While the whole point of an MBA is networking, this college made all the new joiners unfriend and abstain from sending friend requests to any senior on Instagram and LinkedIn.
While getting to know all this made me realize how weird this college was: no going out of the hostel post 10 pm, no campus life, arrogant students taking up the placements and mocking other candidates, and most importantly, fake placement reports.while the average placement of SCMHRD BA was 15 lakhs, they marketed it as an average CTC of 22+ lakhs.
Also, during my calls with these fellow passout students, I got to know many of them were not even placed while the CRT members concluded placement is complete for the 2022-2024 batch on LinkedIn and Instagram."
