Sheena's Review On Kasturba Medical College - [KMC], Mangalore

It was all good i fondly remember my alma mater and the college management was really praise worthy. We always saw a smile on each and every person in the manangement, ever ready to help the students.

MAHE entrance examination i had 501 rank i joined this college because it is one of the finest colleges for the study of medicine. The teachers professors take lots of efforts to teach and the practical part is truly praise worthy.

Good, we gained a lot of practical knowledge during this period it is in this period we actually get a feel of being a doctor stipend was low-3000/month.

After finishing most of us go on to study for post graduation courses and not start practicing immediately. So I really didnt got placed immediately but studied extensively for my PG entrance.

Annual fest it used to be a blast all the batches would prepare various items like songs, dance, fashion show, annual sports week hand ball, tennis, badminton, volley ball, basket ball, athletics, ganesh chaturthi was celebrated with huge pomp and show.

Fee structure at the time i did my studies was 72,000/annum though it was a huge amount at that time, it was worth the quality of teaching we obtained present times, it is much higher.

No i did not avail any scholarships and didnt even know if there any available so will not be able to write much about it.

Campus life was awesome we at that time did not have much intolerance issues people liked each other irrespective of the cultural backgrounds, castre, colour or relegion. We had healthy competitions time and gain in various fields.

Hostels were neat it was a huge one, seven storied building my room was on fourth floor. The room was spacious with attached toilet and bath. I shared it with a senior. We had permanent concrete beds the mess food was tricky, Being a north Indian it took a lot of time to adjust to the south indian food. We were given treats every friday night and sunday lunch.

Alumni network is now very strong thanks to the social media facebook and whatsapp have literally brought the world closer we are in regular touch and have made our batch groups where we keep posting our thoughts and accomplishments.

Exams were hectic we had a lot of syllabus to cover practicals and viva voice were even harder it used to be a real hard work to get through exams.

Wonderful teachers par-excellence what-ever i am today i owe it to them they had great zeal for teaching and really made us understand the subject well.
