The college has good academics.

Placements: It's a government college and it's a hospital so all the students will take an internship and that will be approximately Rs. 42,000 And we are doctors. After passing this college you make good doctors. The package is too high 16 LPA -18 LPA or higher than this.

Infrastructure: The library is very good. Labs and classrooms all have air-conditioners. Its ground is too short. The cultural events and sports are too much than any medical college. Books are also available in a library from your medical books to ethical books. Enjoy every day, too good for MBBS.

Faculty: The academic studies are too much. Semester examinations are of moderate difficulty. They are not too hard and not too easy. The frequency of examination is approximately 1 - 2 weeks. Overall, it is the best college.

Other: They should improve grounds and water purifiers. They conduct fests. A scholarship facility is available in our college. Overall, it is a great college, and the DJ nights during events like the freshers' party or convocation are very enjoyable.

A great medical college for studying medicine.

Placements: As a medical college, there is no hiring for placements. It only provides you with the degree of an MBBS graduate and a well-qualified doctor. It gives you great exposure to patients and other doctors, which helps you become a great doctor. That's all about it.

Infrastructure: Good, but it needs to be improved/upgraded. Some areas are broken and need to be repaired and replaced. New technologies are needed for better services to patients and students. The hostels need to be cleaned and renovated, and the capacity of the hostels needs to be expanded.

Faculty: Some faculty members are great, while some are above average. Overall, the faculty is good. Some faculty members are really supportive of students. They are always available to help with any kind of issue. They really appreciate and arrange the necessary facilities for students.

Other: Good campus and good patient loads.

Overall, the college is good.

Placements: Since it is a medical college we don't exactly get placements but a student passing from RGKMCH will have no trouble getting patients if he decides to set up his own chamber. The percentage of students qualifying for NEET PG from our college is very good too.

Infrastructure: Labs and classrooms are decent. Everything we need is provided here. Wi-Fi is available throughout the campus, and the data limit is only 25 MB per day. Hostels are a whole different story. Hygiene is really poor and maintenance is not good either. The first-year hostel is still decent. 2nd-year hostel and the main boy's hostel hygiene are not good.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified, but they do not put a lot of effort into teaching. For doubt solving, they will clear any doubts we may have. They all are highly knowledgeable. The course curriculum is very relevant. Exams difficulty level is good. It makes us ready for the medical field.

Other: Fest organised is amazing here. Big Bollywood artists perform at our college and events are great.

Dream medical college for thousands of students.

Placements: In MBBS, 100% of students who pass the exam get some or the other job. Bonding with seniors is very nice in our college. Juniors are treated like brothers, sisters, and seniors help us very much. Placements are offered in West Bengal.

Infrastructure: Library is very good, Wi-Fi doesn't work, and AC is okay. Labs are good as my college is more than 100 years old. Classrooms are good but not very good. Chairs are broken. Projectors and sound systems are not that good. Rest everything is okay and quite better than many other colleges.

Faculty: Faculty members are very good. We have 9 semesters and 4 professional examinations along with lots of PCTs, items, etc. Many class tests are conducted. Exams are MBBS level.

I'm satisfied with this college. It has a good placement rate and good patient exposure.

Placements: Around 250 students are there in our batch. Duration of course is 5.5 years. After completion of final year, college provides students with internships for 1 year. The salary offered is Rs. 32,000 per month. Every student of batch got a chance to do 1 year internship. Roles offered in our course is doctor. After completion of MBBS, we can get a job in a hospital as resident with a salary every month or contractual basis. The highest salary offered is 1.5 lakh per month. The lowest salary offered is Rs. 50,000 per month.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are revised up to date every year. Every department has its own space. We have a separate building for anatomy for clinical and non-clinical subjects. We have administrative buildings. We have two libraries presently one library is closed. Timing of library is 8:00 AM To 8:00 PM (Mon To Fri) and on Saturday it is 8:00 AM To 2:00 PM. In Classrooms, we have three lecture theaters. In hostel, we have four boys hostel and one girl hostel. Each room is alloted to 3-4 students and the food of mess is almost good.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and super specialists in their field. Teaching quality is good and teachers are always ready to help. We are going to be doctors, so our course curriculum is designed in that way. After final year we get paid internships which makes students industry-ready and practice. Semester exams are neither too tough nor too easy. Almost 90% of students pass exams in the first attempt. All students pass in supplementary exam.

Other: From my childhood, I wanted to become a doctor, so I chose this college based on my NEET UG rank, I'm satisfied with this college. The best thing about this and our course is that it will show how to live our life in a good way. Every year we have our annual fest known as Lobelia which is the biggest fest in West Bengal colleges. From Kolkata station college is 2 min away, and two metro stations are available near college.

I'm very satisfied, with good placements and really good infrastructure.

Placements: Around 65% of students were placed. The average package is 5.4 lakhs per annum. Government hospitals and nursing homes are the main recruiters. All students get their internships in our own hospital. Every batch has 250 students, and around 150 people get house staffship in our own college in different departments like radiology, trauma, medicine, and surgery.

Infrastructure: All departments have personal labs and classrooms. There is a common library for UG students. There is no playground for us, but we play at others' grounds. There is no Wi-Fi for students, which is a downside for the college. It is located in Kolkata, so the patient crowd is much larger than other medical colleges.

Faculty: Teachers are all helpful and qualified, as they have all completed their PG courses, and some have super specialty qualifications. The pass percentage for semester exams is around 70%. This course makes students industry-ready. The teachers are very friendly to all of us. They take weekly exams to track our progress.
