Life as a PG student at Trivandrum Medical College.

Placements: About 80% of students get placed in this course. The highest package is 15 LPA, and the lowest is 10 LPA. The top roles offered are assistant and associate professor. 100% of students get internships from the course in various government and private hospitals. Top recruiting hospitals are Apollo, AIIMS, SRMC, and other government hospitals.

Infrastructure: The campus is huge, spread over several acres of land. They have well-air-conditioned classrooms and a library with a wide collection of books for those who are avid readers. Facilities in the hostel are also good. They have a mess and canteen too, which are run by students themselves and are affordable as well as tasty.

Faculty: Faculty members are well-qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is also good. The curriculum, though vast, is relevant to the course. The semester exams are hard, but they help in training students for the final exam and in improving the pass percentage. The pass percentage is about 90%.

Other: The campus crowd is mind-blowing. There are a lot of cultural events and other fests like PG Night. Workshops are also conducted, which improve skills and add hands-on experience.

Good opportunities in the medical field.

Placements: Our college does not offer placements in engineering or management fields. Everyone has to do a mandatory internship for 1 year which is provided. Being a medical college, the concept of placement is not there. We have to write exams for future studies. Otherwise, we can opt for various job opportunities.

Infrastructure: The college campus is amazing with air-conditioned classrooms, smart boards, and seating capacity for 250 students with mics and proper visibility even from the back. Classrooms are available for all departments. Wi-Fi is also there for students. There is a well-maintained library and a reading room for UGs and PGs. Hostel facilities are poor.

Faculty: There are highly educated professors with years of experience. The CBME curriculum is followed. Exams are of moderate to tough level. University exams have a high pass percentage. The current curriculum opts for practical learning with interactive discussions and seminars.

Good college for spending 5 years.

Placements: Nearly all are having jobs because it's a medical college, so everyone can earn either by working private or government jobs. They can also earn even if they are doing PGs in the form of a stipend. Job opportunities are increasing every day as the number of patients is increasing.

Infrastructure: College is very old, so infrastructure is old, but it is still standing strong. Some part of college is new. Hostels are very nice and very near to college with very good mess facilities. There is a bridge that is connecting the boys hostel to the college, so it is easy to go.

Faculty: The faculty is very nice and helpful. Semesters are moderate, but marking is tough. Because teachers are making sure that we are prepared for university exams. Faculty will help you to pass every exam and will be initiating many other plans so that we can learn easily.

Other: I chose this course because it was my dream to study in Kerala. It is the oldest college. Mess food is very nice for Keralites but not for North Indian students. Lots and lots of fests are organized every year, which include both arts and sports.
