  • Past performance in the course by previous batches, i.e mean SGPI, median SGPI, highest SGPI etc;
  • Relevance of the course from the perspective of placements and competitive exams;
  • An open comment section for every course, where anyone can post information regarding that subject.
  • Hand written notes by previous batches
  • Recommended books and sources to study from

Problem Faced by students

It is really hard to retrieve any sort of information related to courses of a semester as students. Even the basic task of finding the syllabus of a desired course in a pdf is cumbersome task. Moreover there is no official repository for notes, sources, relevance, past grades etc for a every course for students to evaluate the importance and difficulty of a subject.

Framework Used

Database

A local json has been used to store information regarding courses of all semesters and MongoDB Atlas is used to store comments/reviews for every course.
