Which is better to join for an MBBS, GMC Patiala, GMC Mumbai, Seth GS Medical College, KGMU, or GMCH Chandigarh?
Based on the opinions within the medical community, I will provide some information on these colleges-
- GSMC- It is a highly renowned college. High rankers in UG and PG entrance choose it for pursuing their medical studies. Clinical teaching is very good over here.
- Grant Medical College Mumbai- It is one of the top 10 medical colleges of India. But its fees have skyrocketed recently. The campus is not in a good shape too. However, this college is one of the only 5 colleges whose degrees are approved in Singapore. So if you plan to pursue your PG abroad, a degree from GMC Mumbai will open the doors of Singapore for you.
- KGMU- It is one of the best medical colleges in North India, and especially UP. It is well reputed, and the campus is really good. The infrastructure is top notch, better than most government colleges. The teachers are decent, and the students are hardworking. You’ll get a good clinical exposure over here. For an outsider though, adjusting to the UP culture might be a little difficult at first.
I don’t know much about GMC Patiala and GMCH Chandigarh, so I won’t comment on these two.
Make sure to choose a college with hardworking students. Good company will motivate you to study harder and excel in your field. Food and language barriers aren’t much of a problem in the long run.
Can I get into the CMC Ludhiana MBBS with a rank of 257?
Yes, you can easily get into CMC Ludhiana with AIR 257. In fact, with such a good rank, you can get into any top 10 medical colleges in India. I fail to understand why you are considering CMC Ludhiana as your only option unless you are a local of Punjab and dont want to move away from home.
CMC Ludhiana is one of the best medical colleges in the country but unfortunately, it has only 13 seats for non-Christians and also charges fees higher than government colleges.
However, there isn't any guarantee of admission even with this rank because the counseling is conducted by a state health university and Punjab gives preference to its own resident students. You will be considered only If seats are left vacant in the third or extended second counseling.

How do I apply for the RGUHS permanent certificate MBBS? I didn't receive it through mail till date.
If you haven’t received your permanent certificate from RGUHS, you should contact your college or university. There can be two likely cases - your college hasn’t forwarded the convocation form to RGUHS, or you forgot to submit the application form.
If you have the original application form and you haven’t submitted it, you can contact RGUHS. They will verify your MBBS mark sheets, certificates and provide you with the degree certificate.
If you don’t have the application form then you should have a Xerox copy. Check if the Xerox copy has RUHS seal with date on it. If there’s no seal and date, then RGUHS, hasn't received your application. You should contact your college for further details.
Is it worth taking admission for an MBBS at AIIMS Rishikesh or Raipur or Patna if I am getting good colleges from the state counselling like RML Lucknow or GSVM Kanpur?
AIIMS Rishikesh, Raipur or Patna all are well reputed institutes and should not be underestimated. They are institutes of national importance and autonomous institutes of central government.
The infrastructure of AIIMS Raipur is better than most state medical colleges of India. The only disadvantage is that you won't be able to get a 50% state quota in NEET PG.
The core points of these institutes are:
-
Infrastructure
-
Faculty
-
Facilities
-
Fees
-
AIIMS title
-
Small batch size facilitates better teaching
So yes, it’s worth taking admission at AIIMS Raipur or Patna for MBBS.
How is the faculty at AIIMS Raipur for an MBBS?
The infrastructure appears to be adequate for a college that was founded only a few years ago. There are structured OPDs as well as special OPDs. The hypertension and diabetic clinic, pain clinic, and rheumatology clinic are all available. The standard USGS, CTs, MRIs, and echo are all fully operational. Cardiology and Nephrology departments have been established. Renal biopsy procedures are also carried out. To function fully, it will take time, but AIIMS Raipur is a thousand times better than AIIMS Bhubaneshwar.
The AIIMS campus in Bhubaneshwar is filthy. There is no sense of organization or management. The MICU there is crammed with 30 patients, with no standards or protocols in place.
How is NEIGRIHMS, Shillong for MBBS if I want to pursue my residency in the US?
I would advise you to not opt for NEIGRIHMS if you plan to pursue your residency in the US. It is better to look for other colleges if you are seeking admission through NEET. You can join a USMLE coaching during your MBBS degree itself. At some other college, you’ll be exposed to students who have cleared their USMLE. Almost negligible MBBS students from NEIGRIHMS apply for/ clear USMLE. The college is in a budding state, so the faculty isn’t sufficient. However, the teachers are helpful and supportive.
NEIGRIHMS is not a very good option in your case.
