Shivam Kumar's Review On Indira Gandhi Institute Of Medical Sciences - [IGIMS], Patna

I chose this college for more than one reasons. Firstly it has been the most emerging medical college in bihar in past few years with best infrastructure among all the government and private medical colleges in the province. Institute provides easy access to the laboratories and libraries. And it is the only institution in state to have superspeciality degree courses. Overall it is the best institute one could get in bihar through NEET.

MBBS is surely not a cakewalk. We have to study three subjects in first year which sums up in almost 15-16 books. We have to go through a lot of tests and practical exams and vivas which needs a lot of hard work to cope up with. Daily eight academic hours except at sundays. Eight hours include lectures, practicals and field visits. Faculties are all qualified and hardworking. One can see dedication towards their profession and they are quite helpful to the students.

I am only a first year student, so i haven't opted for any internship yet. But there is a mandatory one year internship in the institute after the completion of final year. Stipened is good, far better than the other colleges as it is not only under state government.

Job opportunities are always there for an MBBS degree holder. Alumni network is so strong in medical community. You can easily get placed in any private or government hospital if you have your degrees.

Campus life has been so far so good. Cultural events are organised almost every other month. Big college fests are celebrated anually. College foundation day is celebrated every year. Sports activities are all organised by students with great enthusiasm. Our annual college fest called CERBREXIA is the highlight of all the events happening in our college. It is organised at quite a big level. Celebrities are invited and event goes for almost three days. Overall it's a better place to enjoy your campus than any other colleges in the city.

There is no scholarship program for this institution as far as i know. But government of bihar has a scheme of students credit card which gives you a loan of around 4 lakhs with low annual intrest rates.

Infrastructure is the best part of this institution and among any other colleges in the state. Though the college is not so much dedicated towards sports facilities but for the things related with academics it is too good. Quite a big air conditioned library with wi-fi with an internet speed of 20 mbps. Lectures are mostly run in smart classes. Labs are air conditioned, easily accessible and with no outdated equipments.

Hostel infrastructure is also good only that there has been little scarcity of space due to sudden increase in class strenth. If students want to live outside the campus, there are plenty of PGs and hostels outside the campus with relatable rents. No need to worry about accomodation.
