    It is the most rated college for medicine.
    Placements: After successful completion of a Bachelor's in Medicine, I would like to do a Master's in Psychiatry, while looking for its future scope. The college got integrated with various MNC hospitals and rehabilitation centres for placement focus. After completing training, we got hired, with the best package being 20.5 LPA.
    Infrastructure: Firstly, without wearing white coats, we aren't allowed inside the campus. There is tight security at the gate, and entry is allowed after proper record entries. Mostly, the mess is so rushed all the time because students from the hostel also use the mess to have their food. Visitors are not allowed inside the campus without a proper security check.
    Faculty: Even scoring above average marks is more complicated. We should concentrate on practical class, training, and at the same time prepare for examinations. In the time gap, teachers gave a lot of assignments and tests. Teachers are excellent in delivering the practical concepts on live cases.

    The premier medical college.
    Placements: MD pharmacology students got placed in various top hospitals and research institutions. Mostly, during internships students were paid with the minimum stipend of Rs 30,000 per month. Indian Institute of Chemical Biology Parexel and NIPER were some of the recruiters of KMC, Manipal.
    Infrastructure: Within the college campus hospitals were opened, which made it very easy for students to attend training sessions. In the hospital, more than 1000 beds were arranged to give training for students based on real-time cases. Events and sports were not encouraged by the college.
    Faculty: Kasturba Medical College, Manipal ranked as the top medical college globally. They were expert instructors with years of teaching experience to train all the students over there. Clearing exams was a difficult task due to the dense and difficult syllabus. But faculty members were quite supportive.
