"My review on my college"

This college is an excellent opportunity if you have had good ranks in NEET and you want to do medical without asking for any loans. Here's infrastructure is what students really dreamt for. I really bet that after coming here you'll able to find anything negetive about the college

If you want to see the college's infrastructure and management capacity go for thier syllabus. I applied this same law for checking this college during my starting years and trust me I gave 10/10 to the college. Syllabus had 50:50 ratio of practical and theoretical parts.

For studying a whole degree of Doctrate you just needed to have less than a lac in your pocket. Can you believe your eyes? I didn't when I checked for here's fees. This colllege is getting aids from the government which makes their fees least.

"Days as a student of Microbiology"

the sad part is that our college doesn't organize any cultural programs or fests. Yes but we have extra curricular activities such as workshops on hygiene and sanitation, seminars, a technical program was held in our campus with the 44th workshop on respiratory allergy diagnosis and management. We also have sports arrangements for students to participate and enhane their skills in that field also.

This college has a very simple entrance based admission process. After completing graduation in the relevant subjects or fields, I was eligible to apply for college based on my academic scores. But I had to sit for NEET PG entrance and as I qualified, I got admission in this college.

Like other private institutions, the fee structure of this college is very much affordable and the courses can be availed by anyone. Most college have very high fee organization which some students can't pay. But the desires can be fulfilled in this college with affordable ranges.

"Life at Doctorate of Medicine (Microbiology)"

The course curriculum is specific and not generic like an MBBS course. It aims at creating professionals who have knowledge about anything and everything related to this course. This course is therefore specific and made by keeping in my mind the requisites of the course.

To make the students feel connected to the college and their fellows a lot of extracurricular activities are organised throughout the year. It includes seminars, visits, cultural evenings etc. as it provides a chance to all of us to interact with each other.

To achieve something in our lives is always the aim. This aim is fulfilled at RUHS College of Medical Sciences, Jaipur through the stellar placement opportunities provided by them. Mega companies visit the campus to hire students with alluring packages.
