Life in Hardinge

My first choice was Lady Hardinge Medical College, New Delhi and I got it in first counselling itself. I availed OBC quota. Admission criteria were based on NEET scores. On counselling day, the process was greatly organised. We had to get our documents verified.

I chose MBBS because I wanted to become a doctor. Faculty is high in number, not sure about the ratio but it is high. The faculty is qualified with MBBS, MD/MS and DM/McH and various other degrees. Term exams are taken at regular intervals and the level is moderate.
