Hi Imran,
Surely MBBS, because quality of education of B.Tech is not even comparable with MBBS. There are lakhs of B.Tech seats available, but very limited number of MBBS seats. That explains everything , i assume. Better degree means which is more in demand. According demand supply theory whose quantity available is less is in more demand and vice versa.

Hi Imran,
Absolutely not. Reservation system is a curse, especially in higher education. The reservation should be based on family income only. This not only frustrates general people but also compromises the quality of education. This also causes division between students. Every logical person understands the side effects but there is nobody to tie the bell in the cat's neck!

Hi Imran,
It isn't costly, Medical, education in India, especially in govt colleges is well within the reach of the middle class. In fact, the annual fees of a govt college in Andhra Pradesh is ten thousand rupees only. And then there are "merit" seats in private colleges, for which students shell out 60k to 1.5 lakhs.
The expensive seats are those that are sold by private colleges under management quota. They charge donations of half a crore rupees besides the annual fee.

Hi Imran,
If you have enough money to splurge, you could buy yourself a PG Medical specialization seat. Pointing to the widespread corruption in the education system of the country, medical seats in the country are being offered for as much as 1.5 crore. Paying such a huge amount might ensure you a bright future but is a PG medical seat worth all the money?

Hi Imran,
It has always been the policy of the Indian government to have more general physicians who can work in villages and not specialists. They want more foot soldiers and not more generals. Not only the number of PG seats is low, the subject wise distribution is very awkward. One state has more than 100 PG seats for anesthesia, other has less than 10 seats for Pediatrics.
I do not know if there is any advance planning by MCI or Government about the number of specialists' requirement 3 years down the line. Same is the problem with post PG courses. Supply does match with the demand in society, production is insufficient , unbalanced a

Hi Chavi,
Getting admission in a good medical or engineering college is a big cause of worry for students while parents get a heart attack looking at the hefty capitation fees. With pressure of 12th standard marks and the money involved, the whole process is quite intimidating for the students.
In Indore, the price of an MBBS seat ranges from Rs 30 lakh and 35 lakh while a PG seat stands between Rs 70 lakh to Rs 1.5 crore. The most preferred branches are radiology, orthopedics, dermatology, psychiatry, obstetrics and gynecology.

Hi Renu, A few years back I would have told MS/MD is better than DNB for the simple reason that the selection process for DNB was highly suspect. You getting into a DNB program depended on the right kind of people you knew or on the mercy of the institute you were working as a medical officer. It wasn't at all fair. There was no credibility for the doctor getting in. Also pass percentage was extremely low. But things have changed since 2010.
There is an All India DNB entrance exam and a central counselling process for both primary and secondary DNB which now adds credibility to the course. Also now with Supreme Court order removing that

Hi Renu,
Since you have attended one year of coaching already, and if you are a determined student who wouldn't need supervision on your studies, and if you have good family support, i suggest you stay at home and study. Do more and more MCQs and towards Feb and March, take the tests conducted by coaching centers and find out how you are doing with your peers. Believe in God, study well. Am sure you are pretty determined. So all the best dear. And hope you make it through with flying colours.
