Placements: In MBBS after passing out, most of the students were concerned with pursuing post-graduate degrees, and the college was being the first batch, students were not offered any campus placements. From this year, they were planning to take the post-graduate courses so it was a very good option to choose. If students can afford it, then they can surely opt for this college.
Placements: There are around 150 members for every batch. Any medical student wants to study PG after the MBBS degree. So until we pursue PG degree, we will not be offered good salary packages. About 85 to 90% of the students are doing internships. The salary packages offered vary for each field we choose.
Placements: College course is good. No bullying during internship or the entire course. Seniors were good and extremely helpful. Although patient loads was less but it was good compared to other private colleges. The rotation were hit or miss. Some departments were amazing, like Pediatrics, where I actually felt like I was making a difference, even with small things. The seniors there were supportive and explained stuff without making me feel dumb. On the flip side, Surgery was. Well, let? S just say it was...
