How i survived my college phase.
Tips: First of all be mentally prepared to struggle. When you will land here you will be filled with enthusiasm but it will vanish. Language barriers. Cultural difference. Indian food problem. With university, course and country, I am fully satisfied. You must be prepared to fight the harsh winter weather.
Likes (Post study jobs): The reason I rated post-study jobs so highly isn’t because massive corporations are coming to campus to recruit us—that’s just not how medical employment works. Instead, the university gives you a massive leg up by setting up direct pipelines into the local hospital network after graduation. Once you finish your degree and pass the state accreditation exams, you can basically apply to any hospital or clinic on your own across Russia. As a fresh graduate, you start out in a junior doctor or general practitioner role, usually working as a primary care physician. The starting salary kicks off at around 60,000 rubles a month, which is a pretty solid base for a freshman medic. Plus, if you want to specialize later, the university hospital connections make it way easier to transition into a proper residency spot.
Dislikes (Part time work): The off-campus jobs are minimal. Quality jobs and jobs related to the field are fewer and competitive. Off-campus jobs are a lot, including working at KFC and Burger King as a helper. The timetable is really hectic until the 3rd year. After the third year we can easily manage. The average payout is around 2000-2500 rubles for an 8-hour shift.

Kemerovo State Medical University is good and affordable for pursuing MBBS.
Tips: In this country, it is almost winter all year round, and the temperature can sometimes drop to -50 degrees Celsius. There is a language barrier that makes it difficult to communicate. You do not need any scholarships to attend this university. You only need to have passed the NEET exam and a test administered by the university. To come here, you will need a passport and warm winter clothes. The public transportation system is good, convenient, and affordable. The price for a bus ticket is 34 rubles, which is less than the price of a cab. However, sometimes it is difficult to access a bus, so we have to take a cab. I am satisfied with the university and the course I am taking.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are very few Indian food options here. There are a lot of non vegetarian options but very few vegetarian options. So if you are a vegetarian you will need to bring some food items from your home country and cook them yourself.

The university has strong curriculum and numerous extra curricular activities.
Tips: Before joining this college, students must know that they must come with Indian spices, as there are no Indian food options. The university provides study books, so it is not necessary to bring books from India. The university is safe for foreign students and is registered with both NMC and WHO. The climate is extreme, with temperatures reaching -40 degrees Celsius in winter and +25 to +30 degrees Celsius in summer.
Likes (Value for money): The quality of education at my university is good, especially for practical work. The faculty provides us with live dead bodies for studying anatomy and microscopes for histology. In addition, the university is good for sports.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are no more food options for vegetarians. If you think of self-cooking, vegetables are expensive, especially if you are vegan. There are no vegan restaurants and no Indian food options. There are some Indian messes, but they are expensive.

Value for money, comfortable study and qualified teachers.
Tips: Students should know that Kemerovo State Medical University is a low-budget institution that provides a comfortable study environment and qualified teachers. The university also admits more students than they have seats for so there are more than thirty students in a group and the tutor does not have time to listen to all the students. However the university is located in an industrial city with many factories and restaurants, so students can find part-time work to supplement their income.
Likes (Part time work): Kemerovo is an industrial city with many factories and restaurants. I was able to find part-time work in the city and I even worked with Russians, which helped me develop my language skills.
Dislikes (Student Life): The student life at Kemerovo State Medical University is not very good. There are few tourist attractions in the city and the hostel rooms are not renovated. The hostel rent is high compared to the rent paid by students who live in rooms. The university admits more students than they have seats so there are more than thirty students in a group.

The college follows NMC guidelines.
Tips: Students should know that the college follows NMC guidelines and must follow the FMGE rule. They should also know about the hostel facilities, total tuition fees, education system, total cost of study, and teaching methods before applying to the university. Because of the heavy snowfall in the area, a cab is an impractical and expensive mode of transportation. However, public transportation is a good option for students because it is safe, affordable, and provides access to all parts of the campus. There are not many part-time job opportunities for Indian students in Russia. There are not many vacancies for Indian students, and if we do get a job, it is very difficult to manage both our studies and work schedules.

The university is amazing and there are lot of extracurriculars for students.
Tips: The biggest cultural shift was in language. Most Russians don't speak or understand English, and even some of the teachers don't speak English. If you are one of the top 10 students, you can get a discount on your tuition fees. My university is nice, the teachers are helpful, and most of the Russians are friendly.
Likes (Part time work): On-campus students can work as translators if they have a good knowledge of the Russian language. Off-campus students have various work options, such as working in a factory or shop. The pay is quite good, for example, 2000-2500 per day, and it can vary depending on the location of the job.
Dislikes (Indian Food): As a vegetarian, I found very few vegetarian options available at this university. In fact, most of the vegetarian options were sweet, so I ended up cooking for myself most of the time. Some of the vegetarian options available were cheese bread, shorma, French fries, and milkshakes. Cheese bread costs between 100 and 300 rubles, depending on the place you eat. Shorma cost between 250 and 350 rubles, and French fries cost 250 rubles.

College is new, not ready for 150-200 students every year.
Tips: The university is accredited and students should try to connect with the alumni. Beware of student agents who may try to steer you toward a particular university. Use the university's official website to get more information. Don't be swayed by low tuition fees. Also consider the city where the university is located, as it may not provide the international exposure you seek.
Likes (Safety): There are security cameras everywhere. Smoke detectors are in every room, and the fire alarm system is very efficient. The police are helpful and friendly towards Indian students. I never worried about walking alone at midnight in the city areas. There are very few cases of theft because the punishments are severe.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): After getting your degree the highest salary you can earn in 2-3 years is 1 lakh per month. This is a low salary for doctors compared to other countries. If you want to earn more, you need to look for jobs in Moscow or Saint Petersburg. Another option is to pursue a career in dentistry, which offers higher earning potential.

The university is simple and basic.
Tips: There are no cultural shifts to speak of, as everything is the same for Indian students. There are no scholarships available now, but that may change in the future. The university is medium-sized, and according to the budget, it's not very good but medium. Students may find it quite boring in the early days.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): If we wanted to stay in Russia after graduation, we would have to take an exam in Russian. Like in India, it is difficult to pass the exam because of the Russian language. So if you want to stay in Russia, you need to focus on your studies.
Dislikes (Student Life): It is difficult to adjust to a new university. Also, students may find it difficult to acquire practical knowledge due to a lack of bodies for review. Students should study on their own.

Kursk State Medical University provides many research opportunities to explore the topics.
Tips: You must know that life is not easy anywhere. Kursk comes with challenges but some people make everything easier. The Russians don't pass a smile to strangers but once you talk to them they can help you get to know the city. The college is good with helpful teachers there are also many research opportunities from college in my field of interest. I am vegetarian so options for me are very limited in restaurants therefore I prefer to cook by myself. The ingredients are comparatively high priced and not everything is available so options are limited but if you can get creative then it's good. There are Indian restaurants available the food isn't exactly of good taste it's average. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Public transportation): The transportation system is very good. The public transport is clean and cheap. We can get a bus card at a very cheap price which is 300 for students per month which saves daily spending on public transport. There is also an app that guides you about the timing and location from any point of the city by bus or tram or the local taxi.

Kursk State Medical University provides freedom to explore and grasp knowledge.
Tips: The college has all the necessary amenities and resources to support students. The faculty members are knowledgeable and friendly, which makes learning enjoyable. In addition to academic training, the college provides a platform for student growth and participation in a variety of activities. The location of the college is convenient to transportation hubs. The classes are scheduled comfortably and the teachers do a good job. We also really enjoy the culture and the feeling of freedom we have here. We get to celebrate things like Freshman Day and other cultural days. We also have a student welfare group called IMSAC. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is very affordable. We can get a student pass for a month for just 300 rubes and we get unlimited use of the buses. Buses are available all the time, the stops are spaced every 500 to 1000 meters and there are buses every minute or two.

The college is good and affordable. The faculty are highly knowledgeable and friendly.
Tips: Before joining, students must focus on learning Russian. You must also learn all the topics well to avoid failing your classes. Only hard work will help you succeed in this college. Finally, you need to focus on developing your personality to fit in well at the college. Studying, enjoying yourself, and staying healthy are basic needs when living in Russia.
Likes (Value for money): It is a good place to study, and it is affordable. The tuition is 6280 USD for two semesters, which is very low compared to other universities in India. The faculty is great, and there is a good environment for students who are serious about their studies. Also, one can get a good hostel to live in.
Dislikes (Internships): There are no internships here. You have to work tirelessly at the hospital to make a good impression on the teachers, and then you might get a good internship. You also need to know your subjects thoroughly to get an easy go at the hospital.

Insightful college experience.
Tips: I advise students to learn some Russian so that they can communicate more easily outside the university. Adjusting to life here has been exciting and challenging. Initially, I had difficulty with the food, social norms, and communicating outside the university. However, I have embraced the cultural diversity and found it enriching. And my university had a full-time Russian language course for three years, which has made it easier to communicate. I am quite satisfied with my university and the course I am pursuing. The resources available for students include libraries, anatomical museums, hospitals, and study groups. As for the country, I appreciate the cultural diversity and the opportunities for personal development.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport here is very economically accessible and eco-friendly. My university is mainly in the centre of the city so it's well connected with public transport. There are many modes of transportation like buses, taxis and trains. It is very affordable and convenient. Heaters are also installed in every kind of transport.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I am a vegetarian, and I found that there are not so many varieties of vegetarian food. There are fast food restaurants, but they have a lot of non-vegetarian and seafood options. The price for one person may differ from person to person, but I prefer cooking for myself because it is more convenient.
