MAMC Delhi, New Delhi Comparison

After finishing 10th grade at KV Hajipur in Bihar, my dad sent me to Delhi for further studies. Initially, I wasn't really focused on getting into a medical college—I was studying without much direction. I enrolled at Aakash Institute in South Ex, New Delhi, for weekday classes, and also attended SBDAV Vasant Vihar for school. My new life in Delhi began. Being away from my parents for the first time, I had some great seniors who showed me the ropes. I studied at a steady pace, around 3 hours a day, enjoying biology but struggling with chemistry and physics. By the end of the year, I was having a tough time with those subjects, but I crammed NCERT physics and chemistry just in time to pass 11th grade with 76%.

In 12th grade, I started enjoying all my NCERT subjects. I understood the basics by the end of the year, but I realized I wasn't prepared for the AIPMT. Since becoming a doctor wasn't my only option, I focused on board exams just in case I wanted to switch streams. The board exams went well, and I was content. While my friends were gearing up for AIPMT after boards, I was binge-watching Two and a Half Men on my phone, knowing I wouldn't make it into any medical college. As expected, I scored 404 out of 720 in AIPMT, which ranked me at 22000. I wasn't upset; I was okay with it.

Then, my dad got a call from KIIT for counseling, where I had an AIR of about 600. For a moment, I considered joining, but my dad said we couldn't afford it. That "sorry" hit me hard. I understood how our parents feel when they can't fulfill our wishes. Determined to repay my dad, I joined Aakash Delhi again as a dropper and started studying seriously. I decided that if I failed again, I'd pursue agriculture at ICAR or botany honors at DU. I met someone at coaching who motivated me and gave me the strength to do better.

I was happy studying because I had a reason. On May 3, I took the AIPMT. In the evening, I checked my answers with the answer keys. I aimed for 500 marks, enough for a government medical college. To my surprise, I calculated 573 out of 720. I couldn't believe it at first and rechecked multiple times. My friends assured me I'd get into MAMC with my OBC Delhi quota. I was thrilled and stopped studying, enjoying my time instead.

But on June 15, I got a call saying AIPMT had been canceled. I was shocked and felt like everything was slipping away. I went back to my hostel, felt depressed, and didn't study for days. Then, I realized my life was in my hands, and I couldn't blame anyone else. I knew I had to try again or I'd regret it forever, so I started studying with a fear of failure I hadn't felt before.

I was called for BCECE counseling, but the first round closed at rank 598, and mine was 609. I returned to Delhi and studied harder, albeit with fear. On July 25, I took the exam but felt it didn't go well. I scored 539 out of 720, which was enough for MAMC, but I wasn't particularly happy—just satisfied. When August 17 came, my rank was 2202. In the first round of AIPMT counseling, I was allotted DMCH in Darbhanga, Bihar. I had to report there between the 25th and 28th, or else I'd lose the seat.

Studying MBBS at Maulana Azad Medical College (MAMC) has its ups and downs. On the plus side, the faculty is highly qualified and really good at teaching, with a nice faculty-student ratio of around 1:15. The curriculum is rigorous, and while the exams are challenging, they help you prepare well for real-life medical situations. The college fees are super affordable, around 2500 per year, which is a major relief.

However, the campus life can be a bit too focused on studies, and the hostel facilities aren't the best. The mess food is okay, but cleanliness can be an issue, especially in shared bathrooms. Overall, it's a good college for serious students, but the living conditions could improve.

Hey there! Let me tell you, don't look down on Medicine. MBBS isn't overhyped. What's really overhyped is the country we live in.

Choosing to be a doctor in India can be a challenging decision when it comes to self-care. But in terms of gaining knowledge, experience, and satisfaction, it's worth every bit of effort.

It's unfortunate that doctors are often seen as greedy businesspeople in white coats, just out to make money. If you're Indian, you've probably heard people say, "Doctors just rip you off with unnecessary tests."

Here's a story for you. My cousin got really sick with Dengue once, and his platelet count got dangerously low. After days in the ICU, when he started bleeding from his mouth, his grandma threatened the doctor, saying, "If anything happens to him, you're done for." But it wasn't the doctor's fault. The family had given him aspirin when he had a fever, not knowing it was harmful for Dengue patients because it affects platelets.

A common issue in India is that people try to treat themselves first, mess up badly, and then blame doctors when things go wrong.

In school, we learn 'Health is wealth' and 'Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.' But they don't tell you that being a doctor means sacrificing your own health.

When it comes to earning money, doctors don't make much until they specialize. After years of hard work and sleepless nights, they still have to budget carefully because of expenses like rent and loans.

And if that's not enough, sometimes uneducated people will storm into an operating room and blame the doctor for something that's not their fault.

So, why would you want to do MBBS in India?

• You love Medicine and want to help people.
• You're from a middle-class family and need financial stability. While the pay isn't great, doctors don't starve. Medicine is always needed.
• You don't like Math.

MBBS is a wonderful field of study. Those who learn about the human body and its treatment are truly fortunate. MBBS isn't overrated. MBBS in India, maybe.

Getting into MAMC was a dream come true for me. I took the NEET exam and managed to secure a good rank. Once the results came out, I went through the counseling process and submitted all my documents.

The competition is tough since MAMC has a high cut-off, but I was thrilled when I got my allotment. The college has a fantastic reputation, and I love the fact that we get a lot of practical exposure right from the start. The professors are really supportive, making the adjustment to college life much easier.

In my opinion, Maulana Azad Medical College is probably the top medical school in India. I'm currently a student there and have checked out all the medical colleges in Delhi. Among them, I think our campus stands out as the best, and having a great campus is really important to me.

The textbooks used in medical schools are authored by our professors, so the teaching quality is top-notch. The seniors here are fantastic, very helpful, and friendly. Our affiliated hospitals are well-kept, providing us with excellent patient exposure.

We study alongside some of the brightest students in India, which creates an amazing learning atmosphere. The labs are well-equipped, and my favorite part is the 10+ canteens that offer really delicious and affordable food. It's truly finger-licking good.

My experience at MAMC has been quite demanding but ultimately rewarding. The curriculum for the MBBS course is extensive, and while the exams can be tough, they really prepare us for real-world medicine. The faculty is supportive, and I appreciate how approachable they are.

The best part of MAMC, however, is definitely the annual fest, Synapse. It brings a sense of community and excitement to the campus, allowing us to showcase our talents and bond with each other. Overall, it’s a great environment for both learning and personal growth.

Hey there! I'm really glad to answer this. Back when I was studying for NEET, I often found myself reading about life at MAMC to get a boost and push myself harder for the exam.

Now that I've been here for over 4 months, the initial excitement of "I got into MAMC!" is starting to settle down. I had a lot of hopes about what college would be like, and while some were met, others didn't quite pan out.

Campus-wise, we don't have a massive campus, but it's not tiny either. There's the main administrative building (the one you see in all the MAMC photos), an auditorium, the pathology block, a central library, and a bookstore. There are several hostels for both undergrad and postgrad students, each with their own canteens. Plus, there's a departmental canteen near the Old Boys Hostel that's open-air.

In terms of academics, MAMC definitely keeps a strict focus. Especially in the first year, the anatomy department is known to be quite tough. There are constant exams like Stage exams, OSPEs, and terminals. Everyone is seriously competitive, often pulling all-nighters before exams. Even the ones you think don't study might end up scoring higher than you. The syllabus moves really fast. We've already covered the upper limb, thorax, and almost completed the head and neck in anatomy.

For sports, there's a basketball court in the Old Boys Hostel for boys and another one in the Old Girls Hostel. We also have a badminton court and a TT room in the boys' hostel. The sports facilities are just okay, nothing too fancy. I try to play TT daily since it’s the only sport I play here.

As for hostel rooms, only students from outside the area get rooms in the first year due to limited space. First-year students stay in the Dhanwantri hostel until the end of their second year. Rooms are typically for 4, 5, or 6 students, but if you have a great rank, you might get a 2-seater. After the second year, you move to the Old Boys Hostel, where rooms are bigger, and by the final year, you get a single room.

When it comes to fests and events, the college doesn't focus too much on them, which is a bit disappointing. We haven't had Synapse for three years due to COVID, and while there are talks about it, nothing concrete has happened. However, we did have a fresher's event this year after a four-year gap, which broke the dry spell of events.

Life at MAMC, or any college, is really what you make of it. You can be someone who studies all the time, someone who only opens books before exams, a party person, or someone who finds a balance. Getting into a government college doesn't mean life gets easy; you still have to work hard to pass.

We definitely have our share of fun, with parties, crazy hostel antics, playing video games together, going on night outs, and just hanging out. College life is long, about 5.5 years, so taking breaks is important.

Regarding love life, you'll see couples all around the campus. It's a very couple-friendly place, with lots of greenery that makes it even more romantic, especially when it rains. Those at MAMC know just how much love there is on campus.

Let me share some snapshots from my gallery to give you a feel of life here. Here's our batch T-shirt, a photo from a hostel night party, and a pic of me trying to make a perfect smear for the 248th time. We dab, we host guests in our lecture theater, and with the Jama Masjid metro nearby, non-vegetarians are in for a treat.

And with that, I'm signing off.

Honestly, there was a time when I was so focused on getting into AIIMS Delhi that I would have even skipped MAMC for it. But looking back now, I think no college or hospital deserves that much stress. Plus, a few years here or there really shouldn't make a big difference for you or anyone else.

After the completion of course we will go for internship for move further for income in life , After internship we will apply in many hospitals or do private practice which help in manage our life and facilities

I get confirmed admission letter from iisc banglore and maulana azad medical college I chosed mamc over iisc because of my keen interest in patient doctore relationship. Ofc I don't get admitted in aiims due to less marks. We get admitted on the basis on neet examination score and ranks. You need to get air under 90 for admission under aiq and under 1000 for admission under du quota for general category.
