Private colleges outshine government institutes

SILCHAR, May 26: Private junior colleges in Silchar outshine government colleges as was seen in today’s HS results. Even a premiere institution like GC College lagged behind in the result competition from private junior colleges like Hemangini Dey Memorial Junior College which was only established in 2001. On the other hand, Ramanuj Gupta Memorial Junior college maintained its success story this year also recording 95 per cent pass in Science stream, while GC college percentage of pass in science was just 73 per cent.

Altogether 133 students appeared from GC College in the Science stream. Out of them, 98 came out with flying colours. But it was a pathetic note that the premiere institute could produce just six first division holders while 75 students passed in the second division and 17 passed out in the third division. No students could get star marks. The picture was gloomier in Arts and Commerce stream. From GC College, 309 students had appeared in the Arts streams out of which only 199 could make it.

Percentage of pass was 64.4 per cent and only 12 students got first division whereas 52 students passed in the second division. The rest 135 have passed in third division. Only eight letters were recorded against GC College while Smuggle Arts students got star marks. In the commerce stream, 200 students appeared and only 105 could topple the hurdle and managed a percentage of successful 62.5 per cent. Only four students got the first division with five letters but no star marks.

The picture was just the opposite in case of the private junior colleges. Ramanuj college with its unique team of expert retired teachers from GC college and a group of young teachers, established itself as an institution with a difference since its inception in the late 90s. This year, Ramanuj College had 222 students in science stream and 211 passed. Out of them 132 students got first division, 78 in second division and just one passed in the third division. Altogether 42 students got star marks and the number of letters were 214. In the Arts stream, 115 students appeared and 106 passed out. 48 passed in the first division, 46 in second division and 12 students passed out in the third division. Seven students got star marks and the number of letters were 62.

Hemangini college, established in 2001, virtually tasted success this year in HS examination recording a 97 per cent success rate in Science and 100 per cent success rate in Commerce. Amrita Dutta of this college missed the merit list for just two marks in the Commerce stream. From Hemangini college, 106 appeared in the Science stream and 103 came out successful. 38 students passed in the first division, 57 in second division and eight passed in the third division. Number of letters achieved were 34 and seven students got star marks.

In the Commerce stream, all the 61 candidates came out successful with 16 in first division, 30 in second division and 15 students in the third division. Two students got star marks. THE SENTINEL
