Unforgettable days of my life

An averagely decent college to get MBBS from a Government Institute.

Basic MBBS course duration is 5.5 years. Their intake capacity is 100 students per year. You spend 4.5 years in medical college learning more than 20 subjects. First year of college is dedicated to BASIC SCIENCES like ANATOMY, PHYSIOLOGY and BIOCHEMISTRY where you learn the facts about the human body. next in SECOND YEAR (1.5years term) they teach you about diseases and drugs in the form of subjects like PHARMACOLOGY, PATHOLOGY, MICROBIOLOGY and FORENSIC SCIENCES. Last Year (3rd term of 2 years) finally you learn clincial subjects and practical patients make way in your study program. The last year has many subjects, the major ones being Medicine, & Surgery, and many allied minor subjects. The clicical knowledge you learns forms the basis for your FUTURE EDUCATION. POST GRADUATION DEGREE.

RCSM is the only goverenment college for public in the kolhapur district. And the patient inflow is very good. So one comes out as a decent doctor once you clear exams. They will subject you to compulsory 1 year internship as per state orders manadtory for every student. They take 10% of EXTERNS also those who have applied as per their merit ranks.

FRESHERS DAY: 1 st year students being welcomed by seniors. ANNUAL COLLEGE CULTURAL FEST: Consists of religious folk plays, dance and drama. SPORTS DAY AND INDOOR GAMES COMPETITION. Ganesh Chaturthi & Diwali FESTIVALS attract a huge crowd. There is an organising team consisting of 2 nd year medical students and team members from final year and 1 st year students. In short team work comes in play and you make many friends in the process juniors as well as seniors including few girlfriends.

Quite cheap. 40-45K per semester. In all 8 semesters. You need to pay in the form of demand draft of a nationalised bank. No other modes of payment accepted. No other additional fees and you will get a receipt of fee payment in case you have taken a loan / mortgage.

No, scholarship programs are available in this college.

I am sure you will make long lasting memories with the college since you are going to spend 5 years living in there. The campus life is always buzzing with freshers, teenagers, some fancy bikes and ofcourse GIRLS. Library is one place where you need to make your headquarters unfortunately a sad truth about medicos life. But canteen and GYM KHana are also there to releive the stress.

Yes, the hostels in general are not very modern but decent enough for being attached to a government college. Usually you will be shring your room with your fellow mates, 2 persons in a room. A study desk, bed and a wardrobe is attached in the hostel. Rest all you need to manage. Bathrooms and Toilets are shared ones. Girls and Boys hostels are seperate. Wardon usually resides on the ground floor taking care of hostel needs.

Seniors are very helpful and you will usually get connected with a big bunch of them specially in libraries. They are a kind of mentors who help you out with whatver crisis you face during your time period in the college. But you need to earn their loyalty by doing some free work for them like helping them in their books or getting food some small things in short.

For pursuing a career in medical health sciences, you need to clear ALL India national level NEET examinations or Maharashtra state exams Common Entrance Test (CET). 15% seats are reserved for NRI Quota. The usual dates are for these exams are in april -may. Once the results of the tests are out you get a merit rank and also if you are in reservation category you get categorywise rank (50% seats are reserved for RESERVED CATEGORIES).The admission process starts by JULY.

Being a goverenment college you cannot expect much from them. But the first 2 non clincial years FACULTY are good and quite student friendly. They help you in hard times too. Last clincial years (2 big years) the faculty being very busy with clinics is a mix faculty of one being top notch clinicians (role models) to the other end of spectrum.no good for dummies.rotting in governement hospitals.
