Review of Guntur Medical College

The filed of medicine has a wide range of scope in terms of jobs and health care. Being a doctor it's honour to serve people who are in need. I choosed Medicine because to be a good doctor and serve people. The mbbs teaching curriculum has a wide range of skills with hospital postings and village campings. The difficult levels vary from year to year. Difficulty level increases with the year to year cause the number of subjects and additional duties in hospital.

The intership provide by the college is a junior doctors in the affiliated hospital. They provide a monthly stipend of 23k rupees monthly for the intership year. Then after there is no direct placements offered by the college but getting into a job is easy by this degree. If you interested in further studies you pursue further studies in medicine such as MS or MD.

There are direct placements for our course but the availability of jobs are wide range for doctors. As we take intership as they marking a monthly stipend of 25k rupees for monthly. There after as the course completed our choice may be a specialist or a junior doctors. There is good scope of getting job or we can make a own private job such as clinics and own hospitals if possible.

For the 1st year of mbbs the tuition fee is 15,000 rupees and for every acedimic year the same fees should be paid. At the time of joining the course you have to pay 10,800 rupees for sports. There are number of scholarships available for medical students. The regular one is JVD scheme provided by Andhra Pradesh State Government. There is monthly stipend in final year of mbbs till that there is no stipend given to the Students other than scholarships.

There are many events and cultural activities in our college held every year. The events are as Freshers day , Ethnic day , Graduation ceremony and regional festivals such as Christmas , Pongal etc...A wide range of books available in library providing a good environment. The lab are equipped with good microscopes and lab equipments. A student can form a clubs and participate in all events under the university

The college hostel has a good environment with large rooms . They provide washing machines and hot water and a tv room and many more. Hostel has a big Play ground with all sports equipment. The meals provided was awesome and having good weekly menu. The hostel fee for full course is 40k rupees and having a monthly mess fee of 3.5k rupees.

There is a process for the entry of mbbs course one has to appear for NEET Examination and have to clear the examination with a good score. The cut off marks are different for different Medical Colleges but having above 500 marks make good chances for getting a medical seat. It's also depends on difficulty of NEET Exam and some reservation policies. The Examinations will definately get more and more though year by year. My personal thought was the counselling process should be changed cause due to conducting two counsellings same time marking Students confused there is national counselling and state counselling hence to make them as one counselling is better option

The college is full of skilled professors having excellent teaching skills. The faculty to student ratio is our college having 250 students in a acedimic year. For every department one HOD and nearly 8 to 10 profffesors and one associate professor. Hence the ratio may vary from department to department but it's in between 1:25 which is a good thing. For every week they used to conduct exams and they regularly intract with Students.
