I got AIIMS Raipur in the 2nd round of counseling. Should I leave Seth GS for that?

MT
Mukund Tapdiya Posted On : November 16th, 2022
Studied at All India Institute of Medical Sciences

Whether you should leave Seth GS for AIIMS or not can be understood only after going through a general comparison between the two:

Academics: The academics of both colleges are somewhat similar.

Lifestyle: KEM is located in Mumbai so you will have to go through the metro lifestyle which includes pollution, crowd, and an unhygienic lifestyle.

Hostel: Hostel facilities are much better in AIIMS than in KEM. Also, KEM does not provide hostel facilities to 1st-year students. The hostels in KEM are very crowded.

Crowd: KEM has a larger batch and there might be crowding.

The final decision is yours.

Which college is better: Seth GS Medical College Mumbai (SGSMC) or Maulana Azad Medical College Delhi (MAMC)?

TA
Tania Adhikari, Posted On : November 18th, 2021
MBBS from Maulana Azad Medical College (2019)

It will be better to go to Maulana Azad Medical College, Delhi (MAMC). Here are some reasons why:

  • MAMC Delhi is considered the best medical college for students going through NEET. 
  • Many top students have always chosen this college. 
  • You will get to study with the brilliant minds of the country.
  • The one thing every student prefers about MAMC Delhi is its course fees. It is very less as compared to SGSMC Mumbai. Your entire MBBS tuition fees will be around INR 11,000. 
  • Maulana Azad Medical College is run by the Delhi Government whereas SGSMC is run by Mumbai’s Municipal Corporation.
  • MAMC being situated in Delhi provides the best college life with a huge campus with an indoor-outdoor sports facility, swimming pool, gym facilities, AC lecture halls, etc. Such perks are missing in SGSMC Mumbai.

If clinical exposure and academics are considered they may be at the same level, but MAMC being under Delhi University has an upper hand.

Can someone give me a priority order for these MBBS colleges Seth Gs , Grant, KGMU, BHU, CMC Vellore, AIIMS (except Delhi)?

NM
Nikhil Mishra Posted On : November 18th, 2022
M.B.B.S. from All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi (Graduated 2017)

Every college is good in one or the other aspects. Its location, faculty, and infrastructure are the main factors that determine a college's priority. The following list contains the colleges in order of priority based on their pros and cons.

Pros:

  • BHU: No requirement to sign a bond

  • Seth GS: Located in Mumbai with the best academic structure 

  • KGMU Lucknow: The location and academic structure are perfect.

  • Other AIIMS: No need to sign any bond and the fee structure is affordable. AIIMS tag can help you with USMLE purposes.

Cons:

  • BHU: Located in Varanasi, it lacks the facilities of metropolitan cities like Delhi and Mumbai

  • Seth GS: Mumbai is expensive and a bond of 1 year needs to be signed

  • CMC Vellore: You will have to learn Tamil as it is located South India. The fee structure is pretty expensive.

  • Other AIIMS: They are usually not located in a good location except for Bhopal and Bhubaneswar.

The preferred order as per the pros and cons can be - BHU> AIIMS> KGMU> Grant> Seth GS> CMC Vellore

One college can be good for you but bad for others. This is because your own needs determine which college is best for you. So choose wisely.

Tisha Sawant, Posted On : November 25th, 2021
MBBS from Grant Medical College and Sir Jamshedjee Jeejeebhoy Group of Hospitals (2023)

This choice majorly depends on the student and his preferences. 

Seth GS:

  • If you prefer studying a lot probably most of the time then opt for Seth GS. 
  • They have a highly qualified staff and caters to KEM Hospital. 
  • You will be studying amongst some of the brightest minds. 
  • The hostel and accomodation facilities are the only problem, due to its location.

GMC:

  • If you want to enjoy your college life, Grant Medical College (GMC) will be good for you. 
  • It has the largest campus in Maharashtra. 
  • GMC conducts the best cultural fests and events, be it sports, art or academics. This provides great exposure. 
  • The staff here is also highly qualified just like KEM. 
  • Students here tend to lean towards the extracurricular activities more than the studies. 
  • The campus has 2 boys hostels and 1 girls hostel enough to provide lodging for all the students who apply. 
  • The hostel provides facilities like hot water, pure drinking water, beds, tables, etc. 

Most people will claim that KEM is better for your career. But at the end of the day you also need some extracurricular activities to engage in and avoid the monotony.

Which one is better, GMC Mumbai or GSMC Mumbai for an MBBS?

AB
Advaith Bhaskar Posted On : October 3rd, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India (2000–present)

GMC Mumbai and GSMC have always been compared to each other. 

GSMC has great academics and a very competitive environment. GMC is much more relaxed. At GMC, you’ll come across a variety of students- from nerds to all-rounders, to those who study the night before an exam. 

Toppers generally choose GSMC as their first preference. But those who spend some time in Grant, usually refuse to be upgraded to GSMC. Grant students are better at extracurriculars, while GSMC students are on average, more studious.

Both are good for an MBBS degree. You should choose between them based on your personal preference.

Why does everyone prefer to do an MBBS at Seth GS rather than GMC Mumbai?

AG
Akriti Gupta Posted On : October 4th, 2023
lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

The sole reason many medical aspirants choose Seth GS for MBBS over GMC Mumbai is the quality of education it offers which places it somewhat higher than GMC. 

Grant Medical College is indeed a well-known medical college but not yet at par with KEM at least in terms of academics. KEM welcomes the best student crowd and churns out many great doctors. 

Seth GS on the other hand is at the same level as the top medical colleges of India, AIIMS and JIPMER in terms of academics. However, it’s yet to match its level of infrastructure, clinical exposure, and research opportunities.

Grant is known to have very old infrastructure, with issues related to internal politics and corruption. However, most ranking magazines place GMC over Seth GS thereby misleading many.

So always consider all the aspects before choosing your college.

How is the life of non Maharashtran students in GMC Mumbai or Seth GS College Mumbai?

AG
Akriti Gupta Posted On : October 3rd, 2023
lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Students coming from other different states of India might face some issues while adjusting to GMC Mumbai or Seth GS College Mumbai. However, I believe your home state or language should not be an obstacle in your education path because both these colleges are very prestigious and are dream colleges of many. Moreover, their location adds to the never-ending pros of these colleges.

Non-Maharashtrian students might face issues while adjusting to government hostels that have scanty rooms, average mess food, and sometimes terrible roommate tantrums. 

Language barrier is another major issue faced by non-Maharashtrians. It’s better to know Hindi or English, at least but try to learn the basic native language for easy communication with patients, localities, office staff, and peers. If you don’t know Marathi, you will face serious issues while interacting with your patients and this may affect your performance. 

So try to adjust and stay motivated!

Sir will it be good to opt AIIMS Jodhpur or Rishikesh if I get 674 marks in neet over Seth GS or GMC Mumbai?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : June 11th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Trust me there is no right answer to your question as the choice of the institute is a matter of personal inclinations and goals. However here are a few points you would like to consider before selecting your college

  • Academically, the quality of education and the research facilities available are similar in all the aforementioned institutes and so you choosing one over the other will not compromise your education.
  • The primary factor should be location. Here there are 2 things to consider proximity to your home and the kind of college life you want. If you want a tranquil and calm life go for AIMS Rishikesh but if you are a city lover, go for Seth GS.
  • Infrastructure-wise, AIIMS definitely gives an edge to Seth GS. The modern campus, with top-notch equipment and hostel facilities, offers a more comfortable and modern college life than an old institute like Seth GS. 
  • Being a central institute, AIIMS offers more exposure to diverse cultures and a mixed student body.
  • AIIMS Rishikesh follows a total MCQ exam pattern making it easier for NEET PG preparation. 
  • The most lucrative aspect of AIIMS is the tag associated with it. You will forever be honored for being a part of an institute of national importance.
  • There is no bond policy in AIIMSwhereas Seth GS has one.

Now it depends on you to decide which factor attracts you and which factor you are ready to overlook. Once you have weighed all points only then you can arrive at a wise decision.

I have a choice between AIIMS Raipur and Seth GSMC Mumbai for MBBS which one would be better considering the future post-graduation?

PM
Piyush Marwaha Posted On : November 18th, 2022
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Raipur (Expected 2025)

It is widely held that the Mumbai work structure is extremely beneficial and makes you more confident and open.

GSMC has a bond, so you must work for a year after graduation, whereas AIIMS does not have a bond. As one of the most prominent leading institutes in Maharashtra, GSMC has excellent technical infrastructure. It has a higher patient flow, which is very important. It also has more advanced clinical departments. The faculty is an incredible and enthusiastic supporter. It is affiliated with other BMC colleges, giving you more opportunities, and it is also affiliated with prestigious institutions such as Tata Memorial and Wadia Hospital.

AIIMS Raipur is a good choice because of the AIIMS brand, infrastructure, and smaller batch size, but GSMC is still suggested.
