Great resources for Medical education

For a medical student resources are plenty here. You can see and experience even the very rare diseases where other colleges don't have. Patients coming here are also very cooperative towards the students and allow us to examine and study. Practical knowledge get from here is priceless.

Course curriculum is the best: Overall you have to study 15 subjects such as Anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology, microbiology, pharmacology, forensic medicine, ENT, ophthalmology, Community medicine, Medicine, Surgery, paediatrics, obstetrics and gynaecology, orthopedics. The course is 4 and a half year duration and one year house surgeoncy. Exams will have theories and practicals. First year subjects such as Anatomy physiology and biochemistry have two theory papers eachand practicals separate. Forensic medicine, ENT, Ophthalmology, paediatrics have only one paper each and practicals separate. Obstetrics is one paper and gynaecology is other paper and one common practical exam. Orthopedics is included in the surgery first paper and practicals also along with surgery. All others have two theory papers and one practicals each.

Since it is medical profession there are not such placement things. After completing the course almost all students are interested in taking Post graduation. After completing the 4 and a half year course we have to do a one year house surgeoncy. A stipend of 25000 per month is there for this period.
