An In-Depth Review of SUTAMS: A Hub of Medical Excellence and Growth

Our curriculum is really hectic. There something called CBME curriculum implemented from the 2019 batch. It is ambitious. But it does make the struggles of us students harder. You'll never be free from exams. There'll be atleast 2 internal exams and 1 model exam each year followed by a university exam. It is really stressful. The syllabus is vast and it does take some time getting used to the subjects and figuring out the way of presentation of answers. Clinics too are well charted out, exposing us to all departments. There are talks of NEXT which is meant to change the way students graduate integrating neet pg to the final year exams. But it is still speculation and know one actually knows the direction in which it'll proceed. Again, this course isn't for the easy goers.

When I got in, our government stipulated fee was 6,22,000. There was an additional charge of 50,000 during our admission. So now every year I pay 6,22,000 for the 5 years I'm here. The aforementioned fee is for a govt seat. There is another category for NRI's where they'll have to pay around 15 to 20 lakhs suring my admission year Now, the fee has increased to around 8 lakhs per year. Also there are some financial aids to students belonging to some categories

Social aspect of the college is really sub-par. Fests and events are seldom held. Students rarely get any events to blow some steam off. It isn't any good compared to some engineering colleges. But the fests that are conducted are good. We do have an auditorium where most fests are conducted. There are some intercollege events like South zone and intermedicos where the students could compete against other colleges. That is a lot of fun. We do have a good library with all the books one need. There is a quiet reading area where we could sit and read.

We all get alloted a college based on our neet UG rank. I personally chose this college as I could commute daily from my home. And one advantage of this college is that you do not need to pay any hostel fee if you're not opting for hostel which isn't the same for some other medical colleges in the area.

Our faculties are some dedicated and skilled doctors who guide us through our academic work. They take their time to help us students in every way. The clinics classes are really good. We get to interact with patients under the guidance of our doctors. As in every college, there are some faculties who aren't as keen in teaching us. But majority of them are willing to help us. One of the main highlight of our college are the distinguished faculties

Nightlife is non existent. Girls hostel closes at 6.30 PM and boys' at 10 PM. There is a cafeteria which serves good food and snacks. Both girls and boys hostel has a gym where students could excercise. There are a very few hangout spots in the "campus"
