The UP State government has imposed a compulsory 2-year rural service bond under which the students pursuing MBBS, MD, MS, BDS, MDS, DM, and McH courses from government medical colleges of UP have to work in rural health centers for 2 years after completing their MBBS. To spare yourself from this bond you should

You are right in considering the UP bond and internal PG reservation while making your choice.
You may choose JNMC (AMU) over any of these top colleges of UP- KGMU, RMLIMS, GSVM, MLN and LLRM. The reason being, as already mentioned by you.
People opt for AIIMS Bhopal over medical colleges like MAMC, KGMC, UCMS, and VMMC because of their personal preferences and have no grudge against these colleges. The two main reasons why someone would choose AIIMS are because of the AIIMS tag and their readiness to work hard for PG entrance exams.
Academically, all the aforementioned colleges are at the same level even in terms of infrastructure, facilities, and opportunities. Honestly, an MBBS from most medical colleges is similar with little changes. Most colleges provide a similar experience and it’s in PG that the college actually matters. Someone has rightly said that many average colleges produce great doctors while some great colleges produce average doctors. So yes, the institute matters but not to the extent that your career is hampered in any way.
Always remember Mediocre colleges can produce excellent doctors and excellent colleges can produce mediocre doctors. It’s the decision you make and the skills you acquire that make you a successful doctor and not the institute.
MBBS students at KGMU don’t have a uniform.
Girls have to wear a white full sleeves apron. First year girl students are required to wear a lengthier apron with 6 buttons. Others wear a normal lower waist length apron with the monogram of King George's Medical University.
Though it isn’t a rule, girls wear ethnic kurtis paired with salwar/leggings. It is what the students prefer to wear. This gives a more professional and decent appearance.
This is all about the dress code for MBBS students (girls) at KGMU.
KGMU has always been a very attractive option for medical aspirants.
It has a good infrastructure and reputation. It is considered as the best medical college in UP. I don’t have much idea about AIIMS Jodhpur, but it is considered the best after Delhi. Personally though, I consider AIIMS Rishikesh a better choice due to its pleasant location.
Recently, the UP government has passed a compulsory bond for UGs and PGs. It is a compulsory 2 years rural posting bond. This is a huge drawback in choosing KGMU Lucknow. The rural posting will be a difficult time, and you won’t learn much from it. There are safety concerns as well.
For your MBBS, you should choose between the two based on personal preference. But I would recommend you go for AIIMS Jodhpur.
From what I heard, everyone who applies early during the admissions process gets a hostel room at KGMU irrespective of the fact if you are a local or not. Sometimes students who aren’t allotted room initially, get one after a month, after the backlog of applications is cleared. So here are a few tips to get a hostel room easily at KGMU Lucknow
Hope this helps you!
My friend got selected in all the 3 institutes; KGMU, IMS BHU, and AIIMS Rishikesh but chose KGMU as her first preference. She had no personal grudge against AIIMS Rishikesh but there were quite a few reasons why she did not choose IMS BHU
However, her decision of choosing one over the other was solely influenced by her personal inclinations. She did not find any major differences except the rural service bond which she was ready to sacrifice. She did not give much thought to AIIMS Rishikesh as it was a new institute at that time although it has grown exponentially over the years so you can give it preference too.
Ultimately, there is no major difference in each of these institutes academically and it is all based on your personal indications.
VMMC attracts a major crowd of NEET toppers. It is the most chosen college after MAMC. There are several reasons why many people choose VMMC over KGMU.
Mandatory rural service is the biggest disadvantage of KGMU. Those planning for a PG/superspeciality especially find this service period unnecessary and time-consuming. Moreover, VMMC is located in Delhi. This makes it more favorable. Though I personally feel Lucknow offers almost every facility. Internal PG reservation also works in the favor of VMMC.
KGMU is ranked much higher than VMMC. The education at KGMU is much better too. Despite this, VMMC is preferred because of the above reasons.
Here are some necessary dos and don'ts the first-year students at KGMU must follow to ensure a smooth college life
