What is the advantage of doing an MBBS from CMC Vellore, and how is it as compared to other premier institutes like AIIMS and JIPMER?

A
Admin Posted On : May 3rd, 2024

As a final year MBBS student at CMC Vellore, I can offer you some insights on the benefits of joining CMC.

CMC Vellore

Here are the advantages of doing an MBBS from CMC Vellore rather than doing it at AIIMS/JIPMER -

  1. CMC Vellore receives a huge patient inflow, which is around 8000 patients per day. CMC offers a wide exposure of rare and common diseases to students during their clinical postings.
  2. The faculty is nationally and internationally renowned. The CMC teachers are devoted towards carrying out new research activities, and they are very supportive as well. But in this case, AIIMS and JIPMER are equally good.
  3. CMC follows the best protocol system among premier medical institutes in India. It offers the best patient care and a wide range of learning opportunities. 
  4. The UG hostels at CMC are better than JIPMER and AIIMS. The senior-junior interaction is really good in CMC hostels.
  5. By doing an MBBS at CMC, one gets electives in foreign universities and secondary hospital programs (SHP) across India during clinical years.
  6. The internship period at CMC offers more exposure as compared to other premier medical colleges in India.
  7. CMC has a student governing body system.

CMC Vellore offers a rich exposure and plenty of opportunities to MBBS students. Getting into CMC is a great opportunity.

What is a typical day like for an M.B.B.S undergraduate studying at KMC, Manipal?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 28th, 2023

One of my close friends studies at KMC Manipal so she shared her daily routine in college. 

  • A typical day at KMC Manipal usually begins at 8:30 in the morning. 
  • Students have to rush to grab their breakfast and reach the lecture hall on time. The lectures begin at 8: 30 and end at 10: 30 after which a short break is given during which students go to the CBS canteen and have a samosa sandwich, bread pakoda.
  • The break is followed by DH from 11–1. Dissection is the best part of 1MBBS and will intrigue you a lot.
  • The lunch break starts at 1 p.m. and lasts until 2:30, so you can even take a short nap. 
  • Histology, Osteology, tutorials, or labs begin around 2:30 and last till 4 p.m. after which the day comes to an end at least academically.
  • With the end of the students, students go on to pursue things of their choice. Some sports enthusiasts head to MARENA, one of the best sports complexes in India. Some of the bookworms rush to the Health Sciences Library, some others spend time hanging out with friends while some grab a quick nap. 
  • Students can be seen by being involved in many activities like binge-watching their favorite shows, playing video games, and exploring the city. 
  • IMC Manipal has several events throughout the year and you are allowed to attend fests if other colleges too like WGSHA's food fests, MIC, and MIT's concerts.

Indeed KMC Manipal will offer the most liberating experience ever!

What are the drawbacks of doing MBBS from KGMU?

Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : September 26th, 2023

Here are a few drawbacks of pursuing an MBBS from KGMU

  • KGMU does not have an academic environment and research culture at par with the Delhi colleges like JIPMER and CMC Vellore.
  • KGMU has a very rigid and rigorous curriculum sparing no time for students to do MCQ for PG while in most colleges, the classroom sessions are less so they have more time to indulge in MCQ. So most KGMU passouts are great doctors but are less practiced for the PG exam.

However, these cons can easily be overlooked considering the unending pros the institute has to offer.

What are the pros and cons of doing an MBBS from VMMC?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 25th, 2023

The truth is I couldn't find a single con of joining VMMC for MBBS. That being said, there are a number of pros of doing an MBBS from VMMC. A few have been listed below

  • UG: PG ratio is great. This can further be understood through the following analogy. For MD Medicine, a general category student needs less than 9000 rank via IPU Quota but for MAMC, you need 300 AIR for the same subject via DU quota. 
  • The institute has some of the most educated and experienced professors, the most famous being Dr. Chintamani, a big shot in surgery.
  • VMMC is also famous for its Central Institute of Orthopedics and its amazing Sports Injury Centre
  • They recently built the new SuperSpeciality block and the new Emergency block. The infrastructure is state-of-the-art, even better than many private hospitals.
  • The crowd of students is extremely passionate and is driven by their desire to excel in the field.

You will have an amazing life here both academically and non-academically.

NEIGRIHMS is a central institute. It is the cleanest medical college in India. It has a good infrastructure which includes a cancer hospital and a state-of-the-art sports ground. The college auditorium is really impressive, and it has state-of-the-art lecture halls.

NEIGRIHMS offers all the basic amenities to its MBBS students. You’ll get more lectures and clinical postings than most state colleges. The patient load is high and they come with a variety of ailments. So you’ll get good clinical exposure. The faculty is friendly and dedicated. You can easily approach the teachers and residents for doubt-solving. 

The mess food isn’t good. Also, the hostels near RMO aren’t in very good condition. These are two main drawbacks of the institute. 

Overall, NEIGRIHMS is a good college for pursuing your MBBS.

Why must we do a two-year bond service as an all-India open category MBBS candidate in CMC Vellore?

A
Admin Posted On : May 3rd, 2024

Though a 2-year bond may seem undesirable for an MBBS student at CMC Vellore, it is quite fair. AFMC has in place a 7-year bond period. In addition to this, several state medical colleges have a bond period as well.

I completed a 2 year bond period after my MBBS from CMC Vellore in 2017. The bond period is a great time for learning. It transformed a fresh MBBS graduate like me into a clinician/surgeon. It is the perfect time to decide on MD specialization

During my bond period, I worked for 2 years in a secondary hospital where the patient profiles were very diverse. The hospital I worked at receives patients with MIs, DKA, Strokes, PUOs, CKD, RTAs with polytrauma and head injuries, etc. 

By the end of my bond period, I had received so much exposure that I knew which PG specialization I wanted to opt for. It is much better than sitting at home and mugging books. Practical knowledge is essential in the field of medicine. 

My experience has helped shape me as a clinician. Thus, I would suggest you do not regret choosing CMC Vellore because of the 2-year bond period.
