Remarks

College provides good facilities in every academic aspects. Being a Government College, the fee structure and all are feasible for every class of students. Negetive side is that medical Colleges never offers a fun academics as that of an arts College. It's not the negetive of the College, it's due to the seriousness and professionalism the course offers. Anyway the College Union, Students and everything makes the campus life awesome.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

This course curriculum is bit hard compared to other professional and non-professional courses. There's a lot to study. More than theory classes we have clinical postings which make us capable to handle cases efficiently. By the time we complete the course, we are made to attend postings and classes on various departments. Exam Structure- 1st MB EXAM - after 2nd semester (you'll get promoted to third semester only if you pass the exam. Or else you should have to attend the exam again after 6 months) 2nd MB EXAM - after 5th semester 3rd MB EXAM - after 7th semester FINAL MB EXAM - after 9th semester After that, if we have passed final MB exam then we'll be promoted to house surgeoncy(1 year).

Placement Experience

5

Our College never offers placements. Actually no medicak Colleges in the country offers placements. College is all about providing us graduation. We do have to attend a 1 year internship which covers all the major departments. Currently the stipend provided is 25000

College Events

4.5

The major programme is the graduation programme of the final year batch, which is a huge celebration. Being a medical College, College itself never arranges or provides spaces for programmes. College union, which is very active arranges programmes regularly and provide mental refreshment, enjoyment and make the campus life fun-filled rather than tough academics.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Being a Government College the institution offers high quality education for feasible fees. Academic fees is 25000 per annum. Exam fees and other fees varies and is not so high and is affordable. Scholarships are available for ecomically and socially backward people which help them in a great manner.

Fees and Financial Aid

Not the College, government offers scholarships for socially backward classes. For them the entire course is free except the mess fees. Government provide scholarships for academic, hostel amd exam fees.

Campus Life

3.5

Number of female students are usually higher than males in every batch. College provides good lab facilities and clinical aspects. No sort of discrimination or intolerance towards caste, creed, colour, race, sex , relegion etc have not reported so far.

Hostel Facilities

4

I'm a hostel mate. Infrastructure and facilities are not so good nor bad. It's more than adjustable. Compared to the per month rent that is 50 rupees, the rooms and facilities provided is high. Mess fees is seperate. 120 per day. Total rate depends on your dependence on mess. Average mess bill is 2500 for a student per month.

Alumni/Alumna

There exists an Alumni Association which is actually not in much touch with the students or the student's union. They are not so active or strong in the welfare activities of the campus. I think they works associated with the PTA wing of the College.

Admission

Central Government of India conducted an All India level entrance exam - NEET( National Entrance cum Eligibility Test). Seats were alloted to various medical Colleges in the country based on the rank acquired by the student in the exam. Government of Kerala published a seperate ranklist only including keralites by which admission to most of the seats in Kerala were carried out.

Faculty

4

Being a Government Medical College, each and every faculty of the College is highly qualified and well interested in teaching us. Many of them are very strict so that they make us fit for the profession.

Course Curriculum Overview:

It's always relevant to the content being taught by the teachers. They always use application based questions to prepare us for a real life situation as well. First aid training was also completed. Some of the teachers are very interactive while some not. Short exams are conducted on a weekly basis while internal exams are conducted every 2/3 months. Not that difficult but it isn't that easy either. Very strict checking, nothing is liberal.

The course is a pretty hard one i must say but the feeling of putting on a white coat and looking after patients is surreal and that's the main essence of the job. The curriculum is very vast but each subject is important in its own way. The exams are all conducted in such a way that there's enough time for us to prepare .
