Hostel Facilities
Hostels are comparatively older than other medical colleges since this is the oldest medical collge in kerala. Also hostel facilities for boys are better than girls since the ration of gurls are extremely higher than boys. Menu for food is also better in mens hostel than womens. Hostels are very affordable
Admission
This college was my 2nd option in keam allotment. I couldn't get admitted to calicut medical college which was my first option because of the rank. I chose this college inspite of being distant from home, since this is the best in kerala and it is the oldest medical college in kerala. Admission procedure is via keam allotment and all india quota of neet.
Faculty
Faculty student relationship is not very much possible because of higher student ratio and lesser days of posting in each department. Faculties are well qualified and experienced. There will be 3 sessional exams in an academic year and the 3rd sessional is the model exam. Then you will have the final university exams each year. There will be end posting exams after each posting also
