B.Sc. in medical laboratory technology.

Placements: Basically, after completing the course from CMC Vellore, there were opportunities for each and every student to work on the same campus with good packages. In case someone was interested in working elsewhere, CMC Vellore also paved the way for that. Usually, we got hired with packages ranging from 3.6 to 6.7 LPA, including opportunities abroad.

Christian Medical College, Vellore MBBS admission chances see higher competition. Students have to clear the NEET UG entrance exam and other selection rounds to get a seat in the college. The CMC Vellore MBBS admission chances are on a moderately difficult level.
