- Quality of education and teaching here is perk . Many people think that GGMC has no good academics but it's totally a misnomer
Dislikes
- Hostel and Mess issues = Hostel infrastructure is not so good . So called government hostels with 4000 ₹ annual fees can give you buzzard type of hostel as predicted . Mess food quality is poor .
- Workload = Our Government medical college is attached to JJ Hospital . Huge patient load with lack of proper machineries lead to manual load to doctors and supporting staff
- Lack of exposure to advanced medical innovations = Government has yet not introduced new machineries and concepts in government hospital to teach students upcoming doctors about them .

Hostel Facilities
This is an honest review for a hostel. No facilities are given in your room especially boys hostel. You have to bring your bed and all the other stationary that you need. Meal quality is poor. But it's cheap, and in MUMBAI, no one can get these things cheap. Cheap things are affordable but less durable, as they say. To rent a house in Mumbai, you should belong to an upper-middle-class family. Rates are very high here. Around 16000 Rs per person per month with 50000 Rs deposit is standard for 1 RK in 3 people sharing a flat. You can rent nearby in Byculla, Lower Parel.
Admission
According to a list published by the Maharashtra State Medical Council, my state rank was 590. I belong to the general category, so my preference list was Mumbai College, Pune college, and then my home town, Kolhapur college. From Mumbai, I got this precious college. Rejection doesn't happen here. You have to fill out your preference list, and you will be selected by your criteria by the government, whose list will be published on the website.
Faculty
Faculty for every department is different, with HOD as head, followed by professors and nonteaching staff. PG students are also helpful during postings and rounds. 1st Prof to 4th prof we are divided into. Preclinical subjects to Clinical subjects are taught here in these prof. We have to give 4 exams every year, out of which 3 exams are internal and 1 exam is of university. You have to study very hard. the role of teachers and pg students is to be pioneers in these exams to teach and to evaluate your knowledge in exams. Our college has the advantage of having the best faculty and supporting staff to be gained.
Interview Experience
All MBBS students from India have to face the NEET UG examination and score well. 3 subjects Physics Chemistry and Biology are there in 720 mark examination , it is a 3 hour MCQ examination. After this, the Maharashtra state council released a list of students. Then you get admission to medical college.
Night Life
Mumbai is very safe in terms of nightlife as compared to other metro cities. Our campus comes under OLD MUMBAI. Writing about gyms , in Campus we have Navyug gym for students . Outside campus we have Sadguru Mission fitness gym . We have 4 main hostels OLD BOYS HOSTEL LADIES HOSTEL APNA BOYS HOSTEL RM BHATT BOYS HOSTEL For MBBS students. Timing is very much restricted to LADIES HOSTEL compared to boys hostel. Hangout places are BCR LCR, various canteens, and the great anatomy hall. Outside the campus we have many places to visit.
