Good option for MBBS abroad.
Tips: Smolensk State Medical University is a pretty serious college to study, so I had to get serious and put in some serious study time. If you're thinking about applying here, do not slack off, or you might not graduate. The teachers are okay, but you have to be prepared to put in time and do your own research. Self-study is a must to have a clear understanding of the concepts. Besides, it is very cold in winter. The classes start at 8 a.m. and we can easily use the public transportation. It is very convenient, affordable and accessible. People are very friendly as well and will help you in case you need any help. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the country and the university.

Smolensk State Medical University has very limited internship opportunities.
Tips: Firstly, check how the university was, how the campus or campus area was, whether it was habitable or not, and also look at the university's results. There's no part-time work available to students because the university wants us to focus on our studies. The university says that we don't need part-time work, as there are lots of parts to our study plans. A lot of the students disagree with this policy, but it does help us to concentrate on school. Public transportation here is good with routes to every stop and so many buses. There are also private buses that work like public transport. I like it because travel times are reasonable, and the bus stops are all near my apartment. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the country and the college.

Great university with strong academics and tests fortnightly.
Tips: Before joining this college, you should be aware that you'll be living on your own in an unfamiliar city. You should also know that you may not get your scholarship money right away, so don’t panic. You'll be part of a culture change, though, so you'll have to learn how to celebrate Indian holidays. Student life is good here. Many events happen on the Indian Culture Committee, and everyone who’s interested participates. The campus also hosts a lot of quiz programmes and debate competitions, which are great for students looking to expand their vocabularies. Overall, this is a really nice school that takes your studies seriously.
Dislikes (Value for money): The teachers here are very strict, but it's because they really want us to be good doctors. The testing system is very nice because the teachers give us a moral exam. This helps the teachers weed out students who didn't study but still might manage to pass the written exam.

Our college is mostly studies oriented and also we celebrate many festivals.
Tips: We live far from our home, so we have to be independent. But being here, we also get closer to Indian culture, since it's all around us. We get scholarships here, too, if we get the highest scores in our exams. The college itself isn't hard to get into, but safety here is good. There are no clinical postings and we don't get any internship. We have to find it on our own. The weather can be extremely cold so don't forget to bring warm clothes.

The university is amazing but does not provide internship.
Tips: Should know how to live here in the new country, mainly away from home. Life abroad is not easy, but it’s okay if you have good people around. And, the university is also affordable for students in the general category. But there are no internship opportunities here. The teaching staff is great, though. Public transportation is widely accessible, convenient and affordable. Try to get a hold of ian nternship for practical knowledge. Overall, I am happy with my experiences.

Smolensk State Medical University provides scholarship based on scores.
Tips: I recommend learning cooking before you come to college. No smoking or alcohol is allowed on campus, so be prepared to give that up. I've found that the students tend to grow in a positive way in this environment. We also do have scholarships. For one, there's a scholarship for 6500 dollars that’s divided among the top students at the college. We have classes from morning until evening. As a result, we're unable to work. I am primarily here to study. My parents pay for my education. I’m satisfied with this college.
Likes (Public transportation): The public transportation system is very good and is made up of buses, trams, and “marshutkas” which are mini-buses. The frequency of service for all these modes is quite good, so there is never any long wait. On top of this, they're quite punctual. The charges are also very low and overall, the quality of the service they provide is very good.
