CMC Vellore: 11 Answered Questions

Which one is the best AIIMS or CMC Vellore for an MBBS?

Akriti Banerjeelives in New Delhi

One of my friends was in a similar dilemma. He considered the following points while making his decision 

  1. Most AIIMS undergraduates settle in the US or pursue higher education in top colleges in India while CMC graduates prefer CMC for their higher education only. 
  2. Students of CMC are required to do bonds in mission hospitals so their higher education gets delayed. But this instills in them a strong sense of community-oriented healthcare. They tend to work in remote places of India without any personal glory. An AIIMS student can hardly be seen doing community service.
  3. AIIMS graduates publish more when compared to CMC graduates.
  4. CMC students get better hands-on experience and hence fare better in terms of clinical and Surgical skills. Right from the second year, they start assisting postgraduates in clinical work. 
  5. If you are a non-Christian, it will be difficult to go through the entire training without a mission hospital

Ultimately, make a choice based on your demographics, preferences, and goals in life.

Which is currently the best medical college after AIIMS Delhi and CMC Vellore?

Namrata Das
Raktim Tarafdar

The criteria for the best college may vary from person to person depending on your hometown, your goals, and your interests. Rankings alone cannot define a college as best or worst. Rankings-wise, AIIMS Delhi is considered to be the best medical college in India. But logically speaking it isn’t a very good choice for a South Indian who would have to travel away from their homeland and work again as hard to secure a PG seat. For them, JIPMER is a much better choice with an internal PG quota advantage and proximity to home.

Moreover, if you are a North Indian, CMC Vellore isn’t a very good choice either as you will have to travel away from home, learn a new language, and establish bonds. So for them, MAMC or VMMC is a better option. So the best college actually depends on what you want to do after college. For instance, AIIMS Delhi is a great choice if you want to pursue the USMLE route. It will provide excellent exposure and opportunities to its students. 

In my opinion, the best options after AIIMS and CMC Vellore are JIPMER>MAMC>Seth GS, Mumbai>AFMC. These colleges are considered among the top 5 in the country after AIIMS and CMC Vellore.

What is an explanation for the sponsorship procedure for admission in CMC Vellore?

Monica ChowdhuryChristian Medical College and Hospital, Vellore

You can be sponsored only by the organizations mentioned in the sponsorship list. Moreover, being a Christian is not enough and even Catholics are treated equally to non-Christians when applying. From what I know, CMC is run by a group of churches and if you apply via one of these, you have a good chance of getting sponsored. 

The truth is these are just formal guidelines and to be sponsored all you need is genuine passion to serve the community. If you are passionate about social service your grades and even religion won't be a hindrance in your path. I have seen many exceptional cases, so what stops you from becoming one?

What is the reputation of CMC Vellore abroad? Do we get paid during the bond period there for two years?

Namrata Das
Cecelia Jonesstudied at Christian Medical College and Hospital, Vellore (2020)

CMC Vellore enjoys a good reputation abroad and you are highly regarded wherever you go. However, you might be considered highly by the Indians staying abroad and not the locals because they hardly know about CMC. People might not be familiar with your college if you are working with a multinational set of colleagues.

Coming to the second part of your question, yes, you do get paid during the bond period of 2 years but the salary depends on your sponsoring body. Some sponsoring bodies have more funds than others so you might not receive a salary equal to your friends. The primary goal is to serve the community so your focus should be social service and not monetary gains. Moreover, the hands-on experience and exposure you get are unmatched and improve your skills a lot and also improve your job opportunities. So, keep money on the back pedestal and work hard to serve society!

How do people prepare for the CMC, Vellore UG entrance exam?

Namrata Das
Monica ChowdhuryChristian Medical College and Hospital, Vellore

Honestly, there is no specific strategy to prepare for the CMC Vellore UG entrance exam. It’s more than enough if you are preparing properly for the AIPMT. Also, I will suggest you follow just one reference book thoroughly. Arrange as many mocks as you can before the exams and also time yourself. Usually, very basic questions are asked and focus is given to speed rather than complexity. I have many friends living near Vellore who took coaching at a college called Voorhees in Vellore to prepare for CMC. 

In addition to academic preparation, students should also focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, to ensure they are in good physical and mental health for the exam.

Hope this helps you!

Which is better, CMC Vellore or AFMC? Which college would provide me an assured seat in PG?

Raktim Tarafdar

Without any second thoughts, choose AFMC over CMC because it ranks higher than most other medical colleges in the country. AFMC provides excellent exposure and opportunities to its students both in terms of academics as well as research. The most appealing aspect of the institute is that it’s a government college so the tuition is almost free of cost. CMC on the other hand is a private medical college that charges a high fee. 

Although there isn’t a guarantee of a PG seat in any medical college, I can say that if you have done MBBS in AFMC then your chances of getting a PG seat are very high.

Overall, the top-notch academic ambiance and the highly qualified faculty pool make it an excellent choice and therefore should certainly be considered over CMC Vellore.

What are the tasks and questions asked in the CMC, Vellore interview? Can you elaborate about your interview experience?

Namrata Das
Cecelia Jonesstudied at Christian Medical College and Hospital, Vellore (2020)

There is no fixed pattern for the interview conducted by CMC Vellore in the last stage of the admission process. Usually, the shortlisted candidates are categorized into groups of 5 or 6, Boys and Girls, separately. There are 2 group observers for each group, called G.O. Students have to go through a number of individual tasks, group tasks, group discussions, and multiple interviews with their group observers.

  • Individual Tasks : These include a combination of complex and simple tasks man to evaluate your intellect to identify the doable tasks instead of focusing on the undoable tasks. This actually is the medical concept of triage wherein during an emergency, the doctor should prioritize the patient for whom their immediate care would mean a difference between life and death.
  • Group Task: These may include building a school classroom with the materials provided in a limited time period of course. This task evaluates your communication skills and your organization skills. These skills are crucial for saving a patient's life during the time of an emergency. 
  • Interviews: These are conducted to ensure you answer the same questions asked by different interviewers smartly. The most common question asked is “Why did you choose medicine”. 

Hope you make it to CMC Vellore, one of the best medical colleges in India.
