Remarks

Definitely 10/10 would recommend to anyone who wants to pursue medicine.

Course Curriculum Overview

Research driven course. Plenty of opportunities for extra-curricular activities. The university has multiple affiliations and students can go and work at different places to increase exposure. The curriculum is groomed to help in securing international placements.

Placement Experience

Lots of collaborations and international associations. Internship is conducted in the hospital attached.

College Events

4.5

All sorts of cultural and sport activities are conducted throughout the year. Multiple colleges from in and around are invited to participate in them. Their is a separate student committe to handle events and a Student Activity Centre to help students practice for events.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is on the higher side but it's standard for private medical colleges in India. Only online modes of payments are accepted and no cash is accepted. The fee breakdown is absolutely transparent and scholarships are also provided to meritorious students.

Fees and Financial Aid

No, as I feel there is not need loan for submitting college fees. But If needed for staying in messes or PG then its personal to arrange. And I don't know if there is any loan facility college offers. Afterall it's a Government college. but, As much I know Cast quota or Kanyashree scholarship provides our Government.

Campus Life

Equal number of boys and girls (marginally higher number of girls), diverse cultures as people from many countries study here. The college and the people around are extremely tolerant in terms of gender, ethnicity, race, religion, sexual Orientation, political affiliation and economic status.

Alumni/Alumna

Seniors are very helpful and very approachable. They'll help you learn how to navigate your way through the course.

Admission

Got admission through the all India entrance test for the college. Chose the college as the infrastructure and facilities are of international standards and one of the very best in the country. Admission is based on merit. Based on the ranks counselling is done.

Faculty

One of the best in the country. The number of faculties are more than adequate for the course. All doubts are clarified by the faculties and they are very approachable,Most of the faculties are alumnus of the college so they are well acclimatized to the course.

Hospital is far from college, which is again not an issue as they send bus service

Hostel facilities can be improved and they can build few more lecture halls

I chose this course because I wanted to help the needy. Also this college provides best education for mbbs to come out with beautiful colours, they provide so many opportunities. There will be three internal assessments and one final university exam

Life as a medical student

Likes

Vydehi has the best museum with accurate specimens. VASA is main attraction of Vydehi offering simulations for basic life support, trauma management, Advanced life support, laparoscopic surgeries, delivery and many more.
Central library of vydehi has great book collection for undergrads , PGs , competitive exams etc. It is well organised and we'll maintained
Security: My favourite of all is the security system of vydehi that make girls feel safe. No strangers are allowed without being checked and hostlers are not allowed to go out without permission

Dislikes

Hostel fee: Hostel fee in vydehi is a little expensive considering the facilities provided.
Students are not allowed to leave the college premises during lecture hours which can be troublesome when they have to leave due to emergency or when classes are not helpful
Uniform: Newly introduced inform in vydehi decreases respect for interns. Patients treat intern medical officers as nurses due to uniform.o

Course Curriculum Overview:

Curriculum is based on practical scenarios and very relevant since doctors need to understand real life scenarios inorder to treat patients. Curriculum includes OSCE and certified skills that prepare students to become good doctors. More individual attention and skill development can help students understand topics and mould into good clinicians.

The college has been consistently ranked under top10 medical college for many decades.
The faculties and infrastructure is really top notch.
The hospital is very good in handling all the patients properly and systematically.

Dislikes

The course fee is too high for a middle class student.
The class is filled with rich students so if you have less money you can feel inferior.
The rankings which the college claims sometimes sound gimmicky.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The MBBS comprises 19 Subjects which is vast. Knowing so many things make you not only knowledgeable but also you have very important role in society. This course is filled with practical knowledge which are compulsory to get. This gives you skills which only a few people can have. So you already stand in society. The newer changes that has been made by NMC has reduced the time for studies. It was less exhausting before. Exams are properly placed and arranged . They are well divided into theories, practicals, internal examinations, certification for skills, etc. Last year has more papers now.

Library is well furnished with lots and lots of book.there is well furnished chairs and table like compartments where students can completely isolate himself and study. There are thousands of books in library
Study room is provided at the top floor of the institute. It is really clean and there are separate room like compartments where students can study well. They can even discuss in group if they want
We have a cafe inside our institute. Here we can have tea and coffee to relieve ourselves

Course Curriculum Overview:

Doctor is a noble profession , the mere respect which we get by being doctor is one of the prime motive for me to pursuade this course Aside from physiology , anatomy and biochemistry we have a e t c o m which is a type of curriculum which is thought to us in which we learn to deal with different situations during our career and they also help us in terms of improving our communication which is very crucial In real life application . Personally for me the curriculum started on September and we had our first internals in January 2nd around March third round me and we had a final exams in August Honestly speaking MBBS is not an easy course , it is really hard, you need to understand the core, and then applied to even in theory and practical exams. concept

KMC Manipal- The only good choice for MBBS

I did not apply for other colleges as i already knew this was the best college to go for according to my marks in terms of study and experience. Did not get rejected from other colleges as i didn't apply for them. The admission process is very smooth. Just need to come here during the time of registration and the process takes hardly 30 min to be completed. Then a complete campus tour is given to the parents which is very helpful. Only students who have give NEET-UG exam are eligible to get admission in this college with average cutoff of 560-630 marks depending on the year...Read More
