Course Curriculum Overview

3

Its medicine afterall. Enormous syllabus in a tiny period of time. Exams are placed with ample time in between though it will be hard to cover everything within that time. Course could be more practical and self learning type rather than lectures.

Internships Opportunities

5

Its medicine , there are no placements . You will have to do one year compulsory internship at the college hospital. After which you can pursue for pg or try for a job as a junior doctor in private could also start your own practice.

Fees and Financial Aid

When i joined in 2023 i had to pay a fee of 18000 but it was revised the next year and has been reduced to 10800 though i am not sure if it is applicable for first years. This fee is excluding the exam fee which will be around 8k to be paid seperate during the time if exam. Scholarships for reservation students are available from the government of tamilnadu. Hostel fees is only the meas fees which can be around 6 thousand a month.

Campus Life

4

There will be lots of college festivals and events to take part in. There is the tamil mandram and culturals which are the main fests that take place within almost 6 months of gap between them. There are also other events such as academic events , hostel days , sports days and such. Sports are plenty you will have lots of time to spend on sports and also lots of resources. Our college has one of the biggest grounds in all of kanyakumari. There are two libraries with ample books and journals and space to sit and study. Clubs are not too many though starting and running one will always be invited.

Hostel Facilities

3

First year rooms are new with 2 people per room and seperate cupboards for each. First year hostels are seperate and are newly built hence cleaner. From 2nd year we have to shift to old hostel that spaces 3 people per room with seperate cupboards for each person. Mess is student run so could be changed anytime. Hostel itself has no fee but you will be paying the mess fee which can be around 6000 a month.

Admission

You need NEET to get into medicine and colleges are based on your rank. I could have chosen thoothukudi but i went with kanyakumari mainly due to the environment of the college , weather . The campus overall looked more green and inviting. Admission is based on counselling , cpuld be tamil nadu counselling or all india counselling depending on from where you are . A day or two will have to be spent on admission where forms will have to be filled , physical checkups are done and certain agreements have to be signed.

Faculty

5

There are various faculty and hence various types of them too , you will be able to make your way theough them without much difficulty . Faculty are passionate at teaching though major efforts must be put by you. There are 4 internals and one proff at the end of the year.

Night Life

2

There are gym equipments in both boys and girls hostel, a small canteen that runs in the day. There are multiple parks inside to spend time. Hostel in timings are 8 pm for girls and 10 pm for boys though it varies for first years (would be earlier). the locality is not the most developed so usually there isnt much activity at night so it wouldnt be advisable to be out at night.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Our curriculum is CBME based curriculum. It is more clinically oriented. We get to answer questions only after diagnosing the clinical case based questions. It focuses more on practical knowledge rather than just focusing on the theory part. It makes us ready to handle patients.

Course Curriculum Overview:

For my medical field i feel some subjects are unnecessary in my view point like the community medicines. I feel anatomy weightage should be more compared to buochemistrand physiology. I would like them to improve the chapters and remove chalters that are unnecessary so that we medical students can concentrate on whats inportant rather than studying everything and stuffing our brain.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I was very passionate about entering the medical field quite early in my life, so I knew what I had to do when I was in school. Medical field is a very challenging area to choose and the work life balance is not as good as other professions. However, it is very engaging and interesting for people who are actually interested in the subject. However, one cannot practice medicine after finishing MBBS because of the increasing competition, so he has to do PG course in order to be more approachable for the patients as well as to serve better in the specific field. The course curriculum is start in a well planned manner and the portions are completed ahead of time so that students have around 1 to 1.5 months of study break before the university exams every year. So, along with the exams that take place throughout the year, students will also have ample time to prepare for their exams in their own way preferred.

Course Curriculum Overview:

This course is well known for its complexity. It's so hard to understand in the first go. We will start to realise that 12th was just an ABCD. This not something impossible with patience and intrest it's easy to learn. Every month we will be having internals for each subject. It would be hectic but fruitful. Don't always street about academics there are lot of beautiful things to gaze at also.

Remarks:

The medical college and hospital is at Mundiyampakkam village, Villupuram District. Being located at a village, the medical college focuses on maintaining good health of rural people. There are 1100 beds which are used by patients. 650 beds are used for teaching and 450 beds are used for other medical purposes. Being close to nature, the college is surrounded by greenery. One can get fresh air and healthy environment easily. However, the city is a little bit far away.
