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 and haphazard.

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 Pramod,
If you feel like going overseas that is outside India you can go ahead with the course of your desired country. If you have got good management skills you can opt for hospital management courses provided by many private and government universities.
You can get into research n get jobs in any pharmaceutical company or company dealing with dental materials. Business of dental materials, products and dental equipment and last but not the least leave apart dentistry and start up fresh for something new which i don't think is a great idea.

Hi Amit,
Financially, it is a very sound bet. Let me tell you a simple example, Gynecology. The last I know, it costed roughly around 1 crore, about a couple of years back.
Now, how do the doctors make the money back? One simple half an hour procedure costs roughly Rs 20,000 for half an hour procedure in a developing city like Indore, when there are no complications involved.
Out of that, 10,000 goes as it is to the doctor's pocket. Even if the doctors handles 12 deliveries/abortions in a day, that amounts to more than 1,20,000 to the doctor for 6 hrs of work. Of course, doctors can do more procedures than that, but they also have to spend sometime with the patient and family members, so let's assume this to be the lower boundary.
So, yes, that donation is every bit worth it, financially. If you can't afford it, beg, borrow, steal, no other investment gives better returns.
*Small Rant*:
I don't have any issues with Doctors making a fat amount. Really. If they can give better service, they should be paid. My analysis might be wrong and based only few sample points.

Hi Renu,
The options are unlimited, as you have done your class 12 with science. Apart from doing the degree level courses in science you can choose degree courses in several emerging professional areas, such as business administration, hotel management, tourism management etc. you can also opt for courses outside the university stream, such as hotel management, fashion technology, industrial design, packaging, aircraft maintenance engineering, government accredited computer courses and a host of post 10 + 2 level vocational courses.
For pursuing a course in engineering you should have Maths as compulsory subject in 10+2. You can do your graduation in subjects of your interest, even switching to Humanities or Commerce streams if you so desire. You can do a BCA (Computer Applications), BBA (Business Administration), Law, Civil Aviation – Pilot, Astronomy, Architecture, Design, Mass Communication, Merchant Navy, Defense Forces, Psychology, Civil Services etc. To decide on the course, you should analyse your strengths, career goals, interests, personality, aptitude and ability. If you decide based on these parameters you will put in your best effort and will be successful in your chosen field.
