A detailed review of Tirunelveli Medical College.
Placements: Since it is a medical college, every student is destined to get a job. The college provides internships at government hospitals for all students. In short, there are 100% placements. Packages vary individually as different hospitals pay differently and range from 5-8 LPA. Recruitment depends on individuals. Top hospitals are Apollo Hospitals, Kaveri Hospitals, etc. All students get internships at the same hospitals.
Infrastructure: Regarding facilities, I would not say they are top-notch or high-tech, but all the basic facilities are available. In a few departments, like super-speciality departments, they are world-class. There is Wi-Fi available in the lecture complex, and AC is provided as well. The library is well-equipped with computers and the latest books for students to access current resources.
Faculty: There is no doubt that every faculty member in this college is highly qualified and competent. Teachers use PPTs and projectors to teach and bring out the best in students. Teaching quality is impeccable. The course curriculum is relevant, and the students are highly trained and qualified. The exams are as difficult as they are supposed to be in medical colleges. The pass percentage is a minimum of 40% in theory and practical, and their combined average should be at least 50%.
Other: I always dreamt of becoming a doctor, so I chose this course. The best thing is that you get to relieve patients' symptoms, and it also enables you to meet 20–30 people per day, making you socially better. I would like to improve the work-life balance, as this course is highly demanding physically and mentally. There is a fest, and events happen every now and then. Scholarships are available for those who are eligible.
