Course Curriculum Overview

4

Best that Uttarakhand has to offer (after AIIMS Rishikesh lol). The patient inflow is great as Doon Hospital is one of the busiest hospitals in Doon, offering quality medical service to patients, especially to the economically weaker section of the society.

Internships Opportunities

4

After the completion of 4 and a half years, the college offers an internship of 1 year in Government Doon Hospital (as a part of the MBBS curriculum) and pays 17000 rupees monthly to each and every student.

Fees and Financial Aid

The annual fees is 1.5 lakhs. It is quite a lot in comparison to the other state government medical colleges. But the good part is one does not have to sign a bond now which required students to serve in the hilly areas of the state for a particular amount of time after completion of the course.

Campus Life

3.5

Situated centrally, our medical college provides a conducive environment for academic pursuits. With modern infrastructure and well-equipped facilities, students have access to resources essential for their studies, ensuring a comprehensive learning experience.

Admission

Admission process was quite cumbersome but it is the case with every other medical college I guess. To get into GDMC, you have to clear NEET-UG exam and score a minimum of 569 marks out of 720, which was the cut off in 2020 for candidates having a domicile of Uttarakhand i.e. state quota (for unreserved category).

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course from this college due to its hospital. It is one of the best hospitals in uttrakhand. MBBS itself carry an important meaning in once life if they have decided to be a doctor. MBBS teachings here is only done to keep you ready for the real worlds. Case discussions are a regular thing here. Total there are 19 subjects that need to be studied within 4.5 years. Few subjects like PSM, AETCOM module should be scrapped completely. They only waste your time as maximum contents they cover are covered in other subjects and few left could be covered separately. It goes on for 3 years with unnecessary postings and practical where you discuss house dimensions, nutrition, etc.

Placement Experience:

After passing the MBBS every student is eligible for the campus placement. There are no companies that visit the college for placement because the students are placed under the government. All students are provided the pay decided by the government. 100% of students qualifying MBBS are getting placements. After getting the degree I have a plan on appearing in the NEET PG exam and after qualification, I will be doing features in any of the qualified branches.
