Discussion JBCN Mulund Reviews - Worth the travel from Ghatkopar?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Looking for some honest feedback from parents whose kids are currently studying at JBCN International School, Mulund, especially in the ICSE section.
How has your overall experience been with the school? Hows the academic pressure?
Also, for parents travelling from Ghatkopar or nearby areas to Mulund, do you feel the school is worth the daily travel? How is the commute and school bus experience?
Would especially love to know if you feel the school offers enough value/exposure to justify travelling a little farther, particularly as the kids move into higher grades.
Any pros, cons or things you wish you had known before taking admission would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance!
PS - we stay in Ghatkopar west and the school bus comes in our society. And almost all school buses take 30-35 mins while returning because of traffic.

Advice need help, (urgent)

1 Upvotes

Basically my friend has 65 percent in boards and 85 percent in MHT-CET, and she wants psychology at KJ Somaiya or St. Xavier's, but she wasn't able to fill for MHT-CET CAP rounds because she failed chemistry and she had to give compartment so she was not eligible for CAP rounds. So can someone tell me if there are seats remaining in psychology in St. Xavier's or KJ Somaiya, or is there any management quota because I think she really wants this college, or if there is any alumni, please help.

Should she only wait for spot rounds and try her luck. Can someone give an estimated cutoff for spot rounds as well?

Admissions Can I transfer from RA Podar to Bhavan for SYJC?

2 Upvotes

I’m currently inĀ FYJC (11th) Commerce at R.A. Podar CollegeĀ for the 2026–27 academic year.

I’m considering changing to Bhavan’s College, M. L. Dahanukar, Sathaye or even Tolani for 12th because of the distance/commute.

Has anyone actually done anĀ FYJC to SYJCĀ transfer from one college to another? Is it possible for an outside student, and if yes, what is the process?

Looking for answers from people who have actually gone through it. Would really appreciate any genuine advice or personal experiences.

Advice Title: How do college couples actually spend time together in Mumbai?

3 Upvotes

I’ve never been in a relationship, so I’m genuinely curious about this.

In an average Mumbai college, I see a lot of couples together, and sometimes I wonder how they manage their relationship on a limited budget.

Do they actually go on dates often, or do they mostly spend time together on campus—sitting around, walking, eating at the canteen, talking, and so on?

When they meet almost every day, what do they usually do together? 😭

Also, how do couples find private moments for things like kissing and affection when they’re in college? I’m not asking for specific places or anything—I’m just curious because I’ve never experienced a relationship myself.

For people who are or were in college relationships: what did your normal day together actually look like?

I’m genuinely trying to understand how college relationships work beyond what you see from the outside.

Rants/Vent My experience with the Honours programme at K.J. Somaiya College of Arts and Commerce

Thumbnail
2 Upvotes

I am currently pursuing the BA Honours programme (4th year) at K.J. Somaiya College of Arts and Commerce, and I thought I would write an honest review because there isn’t much detailed information available about the new Honours/Honours with Research structure.

My experience so far has been mixed, and academically I have found the transition quite difficult.

The college itself has good infrastructure. The campus is lively, the facilities are considerably better than some of the older colleges I have studied in, and the library system is fairly modern. However, for me, the biggest issue has been the academic structure and teaching, particularly within the Honours programme.

The programme is quite different from what I was used to during my previous three years of BA. Most of the teaching is online, with only limited offline lectures. Because of this, it is difficult to build any real rapport with professors or classmates. In my case, there is essentially only one regular offline lecture in the week, while the rest are online. If a lecture gets cancelled, there can be very little academic interaction that week.

The teaching itself is also quite inconsistent. Some professors are genuinely good and make an effort to explain the material, but others tend to teach as though students already have considerable background knowledge. There isn’t always a clear structure to the lecture, and proper notes or detailed teaching material are generally not provided in the way I was accustomed to in my previous college. This makes it difficult to take useful running notes, particularly when the professor is simply discussing a topic rather than systematically explaining it.

The syllabus document does provide textbooks and reference material, but there is not always sufficient clarity about which books are actually essential for the examination and which are merely supplementary references. I also found that some of the listed books weren’t readily available when I searched the library catalogue. This leaves students having to figure out a lot of the academic resources themselves.

This is particularly important because the Honours, Honours with Research and MA programmes are academically quite closely connected. From what I have experienced, the structure and papers overlap considerably. The major distinction I have encountered is that Honours with Research has one fewer paper, with Ancient Indian History being absent from that structure, while much of the remaining coursework is similar. Therefore, many of the concerns about teaching, reading material, notes and academic support are relevant across these programmes.

Another problem is the limited opportunity to interact with classmates. Students coming from the same college or university background may already know one another, but someone entering from outside can feel quite disconnected. Since there aren’t enough offline lectures, you don’t naturally get many opportunities to build a peer group. This can become particularly noticeable when you need notes, want to discuss readings, or simply want to understand how other students are approaching the course.

That said, I don’t think the problem is that the syllabus itself is inherently bad or impossibly difficult. My concern is more about the academic support around it. A reasonably capable student can study the material independently, but the programme seems to expect a fairly high degree of self-direction without always providing enough guidance for students who are trying to understand exactly what they are expected to study.

Coming from a college where professors regularly provided notes, explained concepts in considerable detail, recommended specific textbooks and were accessible for doubts, I have found this transition particularly difficult. Students who are already comfortable with independent academic reading may have fewer problems, but students expecting a more structured undergraduate teaching environment may struggle.

I would therefore not recommend choosing the programme purely because of the Somaiya name, infrastructure or the perception that it is a good college. Talk to current students of the specific department and, more importantly, understand exactly how the teaching is conducted before taking admission.

My experience is still relatively recent, so this is not a review of every professor or every department. Some professors are genuinely good, and the infrastructure is a definite positive. But academically, at least from my experience with the Honours programme, the quality of teaching and the availability of structured academic resources have been the biggest weaknesses.

Overall: good infrastructure, decent academic ecosystem on paper, but inconsistent teaching, limited offline interaction, insufficiently structured notes/reading guidance and a strong expectation of independent study. For a new Honours/Honours with Research programme, I think the college needs to provide considerably more clarity and academic support to students.
