Yes, MBBS and being a doctor is extremely stressful. Medicine as a course comes with a heavy burden of academic pressure, lengthy hours of studies, and arduous exams. Then beyond that comes work long and irregular work hours, a heavy burden of responsibility and the emotional burden of caring for your patients once you become a doctor. Sometimes there is additional stress in trying to stay up to date and reacting to life and death situations.

Failing MBBS first-year exams can be hard, but it does not end your medical career. Most colleges give supplementary exams so you can pass subjects you failed.

You can move to second-year exams only if you pass any failed first-year subject before taking second-year exam.

The course of MBBS is awarded as a professional undergraduate degree in the surgical and medical fields by medical colleges and universities. Two different degrees, Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery, have been combined into one discipline to be practised simultaneously.
