Grant govt Medical college- things you should know before admitting.

Pros: 1. MBBS from a renowned college like this will definitely have its own perks. Plus it has the best college campus( Don't forget Anatomy hall in Munnabhai MBBS movie). 2. Being an apex govt institute in Maharashtra, you will get to see a wide variety of patients including really rare cases. 3. All the renowned PG classes have their prime center in Mumbai so you can join them even in your second year. 4.The cultural capital of Medical colleges ( have their very own gymkhana at marine drive where all the functions take place). 6. The fees per year is 67,000rs. for 1,3 and 4yr. For 2nd yr its 90,000. Hostel fees are rs 4000 per year. The hostel is on-campus only. In total 5 canteens in the campus. 7. An internship here is an experience to be treasured forever. Cons: 1. Politics and JJ go hand in hand. So sometimes it could be really troublesome. The Dean has now changed so maybe there is a little hope to minimize this. 2. Academics were a little lenient back under the reign of a specific dean.

Choosing to be a doctor shouldn't be a spontaneous decision. It demands a good span of your lifetime and hard work. If you are ready to endure it, then only choose this profession. And remember the medical field is a service sector and not actually a job, unlike other courses. Faculty in JJ are some of the really best ones. Medicine, Surgery, Obgy is amongst the best clinical depts. You have separate lecture halls for each subject in each year. Teaching is audiovisual. All the practicals are done seriously and PG residents will guide you in each step in almost every subject till the final year. For instance, in the first year, one cadaver will be there among 8- 10 students and one teacher is assigned to you for the full dissection guidance. Exams are Term exams, Prelims exams, and Final University exams ( includes theory plus practical). No cheating is allowed. But if you pay attention in class and study in the Central Library (Air-conditioned) located on campus, passing isn't very difficult.

You can complete your internship in JJ hospital only or you can take an externship to complete in elsewhere. But completing it in JJ will give you an extra edge considering the variety of patients.

Placements aren't in consideration since its a medical college. But a good number of students get selected for their PG courses in internship only.
