Mamc : A semi-comprehensive review

The curriculum is pretty accurate pertaining to the practices of a graduate doctor and provides a well rounded experience with ample clinical exposure and textbook knowledge. Addition of more hands on experience workshops as a part of the curriculum would certainly evoke a greater interest of students in the clinical practices. The frequency of the exams could be reduced to take a load off of stress levels in an already stress conducive environment.

The fees is pretty minimal being 2750 per annum and the course is for 4.5 years + 1 year of paid and compulsory internship in the associated hospitals. First year fees consists of extra 2000 rupees as a security deposit. An extra amount needs to paid for the university exam at the end of each year which depends upon the number of subjects in that year. The fees for all the categories is same across all the years and there is no management quota.

As a medical student, the time you get for social and cultural activities is limited but we make do with whatever we have and try for it to not hinder with our education. The annual fest of our college is SYNAPSE which is renowned amongst other medical colleges for the array of competitions and performances offered. There are various societies like literary, fine arts, music, dance, photography, fashion, drama, etc where the students can apply and fit in accordingly

There is a choice based selection in this course where you make choices and arrange them in a hierarchical order and according to your rank you are alloted the college and for me I put this college over everyone else and was alloted this college which has a pretty high cutoff being a go to selection for the students who couldnt score high enough to get AIIMS Delhi. The admission process requires submission of all the documents mentioned in the list provided by the Delhi University and submitting the fees and then coming back later to collect the signed admission letter.

The hierarchy of the faculty goes as follows: The professors majorly take the lectures with the few lectures being taken by Senior Residents (SRs) and the small group discussions along with practicals are handles by the SRs and the Post Graduates studying in the college of the respective departments. There are clinical postings with the students being taught by the faculty and given early clinical exposure from the 2nd year itself. The exams are pretty frequent and vigorous forcing the students to revise regularly so that they are prepared for the university examinations.
