It is a budget friendly university with great curriculum.
Tips: Before coming, students should understand that self-study is the key to success. There are all types of people in this country, so it's up to you to choose the right friends. Also, start preparing for the FMGE exam as soon as your third year because the syllabus is vast.
Likes (Safety): I gave Kabardino-Balkarian State University five stars for safety because the city is very conservative. Most of the streets are empty after 11 PM, and the people who live here are very cultured. This is the best city for girls because I've seen many Indian girls walking around at midnight without any problems and feeling safe.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): Most of the faculty are residents and doctors who have just completed their post-graduation and have no teaching experience. Additionally, only a few faculty members speak English, which makes it difficult for students to understand their lectures. The education system here is very different from the one in India.

The university has great infrastructure and campus and the people are very friendly.
Tips: The university has a good campus and a good feel to it. The hostel fee is very affordable at only 13000 for the year. The faculty are good and well educated, and they speak good English so they are easy to understand. Overall, I am quite satisfied here with the experience.
Likes (Part time work): Part-time jobs are easily available in Russia. We only need to learn Russian to work here. Jobs like apple picking, cucumber picking, and wheat harvesting are available. Part-time jobs are also available in cafes as cooks and waiters at good wages. The jobs are easy.
Dislikes (Internships): The only disappointing aspect of studying at Kabardino-Balkarian State University is the lack of practical knowledge exposure. This is a common problem with studying abroad, but it's especially disappointing because the faculty is excellent. The internship program provides 20 days of internship, which is a good start.

The university does not meet the expectations as compared with the fees they charge.
Tips: This college is situated in the north Caucasus region of Europe. The Elbrus Mountains are located in the Kabardino-Balkarian state and you can travel anywhere in the region. There's a lot to explore here including the Chegem and Nalchik Reka rivers which are nearby and perfect for a bonfire. I am satisfied with the country but not the course.
Likes (Safety): It is safe and secure here. There are no problems or complaints regarding safety. This is part of Russia, which is one of the safest places in the world. The police and army are very strong and you won't face any problems regarding safety issues.
Dislikes (Internships): I rated internships low because there is no practical exposure here unlike in Indian medical colleges, where students have postings every other day. Here, internships are conducted only once a year and only for 10 days. Also, the doctor is not available during that time and there are no patients.

Kabadino Balkarian State University is very poor and the faculty have no interest in teaching.
Tips: This college is a good option if you have qualified for NEET but are not getting a seat in India. However, there is no study here. You have to study by yourself. The quality and system of teaching are not even comparable to India. You come here to get an MBBS degree and then leave.
Likes (Safety): I felt safe on campus because there was no violence or terrorism, and the police were helpful. There was very little theft, and I even found money on the road.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): I rated the quality of the faculty low because they are not very good. They don't know what to teach, and the syllabus is not in accordance with the Indian curriculum. Also, they don't speak good English, which makes it difficult to understand them. Another issue is that there is a system called DO which means if you fail a course, you have to pay a compulsory fee.

The ambience is good but not the academics.
Tips: I didn't experience any cultural differences, and people are used to Indians here. However, you can't celebrate your festivals like you do in your home country, especially if you're from India. If you get a degree here, you can easily settle here. Anyone would be happy to move here. I didn't get any scholarships. Other than that, I was satisfied with everything except academics, because they don't teach anything and you have to prepare from the materials they give you.
Dislikes (Part time work): I rated the opportunities for part-time work low because there are students who work in fields on weekends and they get really low pay. So, yes, managing part-time work and academics cannot go hand in hand. Also, if you are working in the fields, you might have to work long hours on weekends and miss classes. That can lead to lower grades.

The university is affordable and has good academics.
Tips: The infrastructure is one of the best I have seen. It is difficult for everyone to settle here. There has not been any cultural shift that I have experienced until now. I have not availed myself of any scholarships. Our campus organizes a culture festival as many students are from various countries. We have clubs or communities for cultural day. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Dislikes (Part time work): Unfortunately, there are no on-campus part-time jobs available. However, there are off-campus part-time job opportunities. Some of my friends work in fields or in bakeries. If you are interested in finding a part-time job, you should check with the career centre or the student employment office. They may be able to help you find a job that fits your schedule and interests.
