Entrance Preview

AIPMT was the Examination. I got a rank of 1873. I always wanted to be a doctor since childhood. I got a score of 79 percent.

Course Curriculum Overview

2

The course curriculum is vast and is spread over a period of 5 and a half years which makes mbbs one of the most rigorous courses out there. It requires a lot of hard work and constant persistence to be able to get through these five and a half years and the internship and be a successful doctor.

Internships Opportunities

My internship will be a one year thing which is a part of the course. We are given rs 20k during the internship. The internship involves working for at least 10 hours a day so I th ink the pay is less for the amount of work we are required to do. The internship is a part of the course and has to be done in the same college.

Placement Experience

1.5

We don't have any placements as such. After mbbs we can apply in any hospital private or government and work their as per our working ours and convenience. We can also open our own clinic.

College Events

1

We do not have many fests since. This is a a government college and funds are not available. The ones that we do have, include some good national level performers. Overall the participation is decent and the organization is decent.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is around 12k a year, which is pretty affordable. One of the Perks of a govt college. Out of 12k, tutiion fees is around 10k and rest is hosyel fees. We are required to pay delegate examine ion fees of about rs 2000 every year to sit for the exam.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes, The student who come from a low sociology economic background are offered a huge scholarship. Which takes care of the fees and also gives them a little extra to spend.

Campus Life

0.5

Being mbbs and government we don't have many fests workshops etc. Gender Ratio is 80:20 In favour of boys. Most people in the college come from. State entrances and are therefore Bengalis. The Bengal politics is highly involved with our college with most of the students being active members of many political parties.

Alumni/Alumna

The seniors are good though we haven't interacted much with them Or the alumni network. The seniors do help us from time to time. With studio course material.

Exam Structure

We have exams every month. And the main. MB exams which is absolutely necessary is held once a year Apart from. That we have semesters every six months. Days are very hectic in any mbbs course.

Faculty

0.5

The faculty is decent. But being a government many teachers are not good, and don't pay enough j attention to the curriculum or the students. However most teachers do try their best to explain the concepts well and take regular classes so students can do well in the exams and become successful doctors.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course is completely based on NMC new guidelines. Along with the theory classes where we know the structure and their working in dissection we actually see them on cadaver . Lectures should be more interesting as it's get boring to literally listen the concepts for first time like a story and at the end we forget everything

Course Curriculum Overview:

Medical field is a really good field in my opinion to serve humankind and learn about science of nature and life!the curriculum is a little overpaced and there are 19 subjects which are taught in a timespan of 4.5 years which is a bit hectic! There are 4 professional exams and 9 semesters which have pretty good difficulty and assess our skills and education. We have regular examinations in around 4-5 months each. Only thing id like to change in the curriculum is better assessment of many topics which are taught pretty well but aren't examined much leading us to waste our time in focussing on them.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Well, mbbs is very hard and long term process. You will be bored in 1st year because you cant get real clinical cases. But in Final year, 3rd Prof Part 2, you will get huge pressure. Because there are total 11 subjects, you should study in final year. It is a great burden for all. I'm not satisfied with Nmc curriculum. They are not thinking about students. They are implement their rules in chilled ac room. But they don't know the real scenarios.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is quite planned and great and has a lot of advantages in having a clinical and learning diagnostic approach to various diseases. One area where the curriculum can improve is by having more practical classes rather than theoretical classes. The exams are quite difficult but are quite planned to make you understand the clinician and the passing percentage is 50 percent.
