Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

I have chosen this course to treat this society at its best possible way. To take care of this society as my family. The exams are conducted every year as university exams which are comparably tougher than the entrance examination.

Class Size: 175Course Fees: INR 25730 per year

Internships Opportunities

We offer courses on almost all the PG courses available after MBBS. The stay for PG interns are very good and the pay is also pretty good. The UG interns are the college MBBS students they recieve about 30k per month as salary with accommodation... but work hours can be a bit hectic

Fees and Financial Aid

The tuition fee to be provided to the college is 25370 per month.This excludes other cost such as examination fees and all other extra costs. The complete cost includes approximately 30000rs per year. They provide many scholarship.

Campus Life

Library is pretty quiet and good place to study but it gets really warm there during afternoons. We usually hold interbatch arts fest and sports. Arts fest have specific dates and sports usually don't have specific date.. We have an intercollegiate sports meet held here called Smrithi.

Hostel Facilities

0.5

Hostel facilities are very poor. The rooms are crowded and very dirty with animals roaming our corridor. Food quality varies from good to extremely unpalatable. The menu is good but they don't deliver the quality. Hostel was affordable.. but now new fees have rising.. it is still affordable but quality of life is poor. I stay at the college hostel

Hostel Fee: INR 600 per year

Admission

For the eligibility we have to clear NEET UG examination. We have to get passed mark for that exam and get colleges according to the ranking details. The exam is conducted at noon time and the exam is difficult but easy if studied

Thrissur Medical College

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.

Great for academics

Course Curriculum Overview:

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 .
