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?

SS
S Jeno Sigamani Posted On : May 3rd, 2024
Christian Medical College, Vellore

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?

SS
Shambhavi Sharma Posted On : September 28th, 2023
MBBS from Kasturba Medical College, Manipal

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!

If the college from where one do an MBBS does not matter, why should one aspire to study in AIIMS Delhi?

OR
Ojas Reddy Posted On : June 5th, 2023
Studies at All India Institute of Medical Sciences (2024)

First of all, the college from where you do your MBBS matters a lot. There is no second opinion on this. Irrespective of many people claiming otherwise, trust me, an MBBS from a good college matters a lot.

Everything is affected directly. The better the institute, the better the quality of lab sessions, the better the faculty, and the more hands-on experience on dissection. Top medical colleges provide better 

clinical exposure than average colleges. A good college teaches you better to tackle problems. The hostel facilities also play a major role in this. A more comfortable learning environment increases your potential tenfold. The hostel facilities of AIIMS are top notch with single rooms from the first year itself. It’s these small differences that bring out a bigger result. 

AIIMS Delhi is rightly the dream college of many, as it provides the best education, opportunities, and facilities. Yes, your own passion also is a major determining factor but the institute equally plays a big role. The opportunities it offers make you realize your actual potential.

What are the drawbacks of doing MBBS from KGMU?

SK
Sanjana Kapoor Posted On : September 26th, 2023
VMCC Delhi

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.

Which is more beneficial to join if we have plans to go abroad after MBBS: AIIMS Rishikesh or NDMC Delhi?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : June 5th, 2023
lives in New Delhi

Without any doubt, AIIMS Rishikesh is a better choice than NDMC Delhi for a future abroad. Those targeting For USMLE Or PLAN should bear in mind that the AIIMS tag is very crucial for admission to foreign universities. It’s the institute that enjoys maximum global recognition. Even academically, AIIMS is way ahead of NDMC. The only advantage of NDMC is the city life and PG quota it offers which is of little use to you considering the fact that you are planning to go abroad.

If you are someone who prefers a lively city life with parties and stuff, NDMC is for you but if you are a nature lover and want to stay surrounded by serene hills then AIIMS Rishikesh is for you. Ultimately, AIIMS Rishikesh is the best choice if you are certain of pursuing your PG abroad.

Does PGIMS Rohtak have a bond for MBBS?

SL
Suresh Lohia Posted On : May 3rd, 2026

yes, PGIMS Rohtak (Pt. B.D. Sharma PGIMS) does have a bond for MBBS students — it's the standard Haryana state rural service bond.

details of the bond:

  • after completing MBBS, students must serve in rural health centers/government hospitals in Haryana for 1 year (some years the policy specifies 2 years — check current Haryana Medical Council rules as this has changed)
  • penalty if you exit without completing: Rs.10-20 lakh (exact amount varies by year of admission cohort and current Haryana govt policy)
  • your degree/registration certificate may be withheld until bond service is completed or penalty paid
  • if you get a PG seat immediately after MBBS, the bond is typically deferred, not cancelled

what's specific to PGIMS Rohtak that most answers miss — PGIMS is a Haryana state government institution, so the bond is a state-level obligation enforced by the Haryana Medical Council. unlike some states where enforcement is lax, Haryana is relatively strict. always verify the exact current terms with the PGIMS admission office or Haryana Medical Council before joining, as bond terms can change between admission years.
