Remarks

Honestly, college sometimes felt boring but now after completing my PhD I realise that it was so much fun. Not just fun but it also helped us gain so much more. I miss all the amazing faculty there, who were sometimes strict but always cared for us and our better future. All the fully equipped labs helped us do a handful of research effectively. I truly thank my college for what I am today.

Course Curriculum Overview

This was a 3 year course spread over 6 semesters. The course included theoretical sessions and laboratory visits. The course was obviously high level. We were required to do a research under the guidance of senior faculty. The results were submitted in the form of thesis. The thesis was to be submitted 6 months prior to the exams

Placement Experience

4.5

Many of my colleagues, including me were hired in reputed institutes. The starting pay was around 8000 INR - 12000 INR and it would increase with experience. A lot of our faculty also helped us getting placements. Many of them even chose to go for further specialisations.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The total fee in our institute was around 40k. I personally found it to be a great deal. When you consider the facilities, course standard and faculty, the fee is very reasonable. There are even institutes out there which charge lakhs of rupees. In comparison to them 40k was not that much of a huge amount.

Campus Life

We often had scheduled free hours which helped us with stress management. We were allowed to play all the sports and with anyone you want irrespective of the gender. Honestly, the female to the male ratio was a little low but we never experienced any criticism or harassment. The college was well disciplined.

Admission

I got selected into the course based on my NEET PG medical examination score. I had an MBBS degree with good grades and also one year of professional experience which is required for this course. And hence my interest in Pathology made me apply for this course. After applying for the college, i was called for a counselling round which included two more rounds of Group discussion and Personal interview where my skills and aptitude are tested. Thereafter a merit list was finalised and i got selected.

Faculty

4.5

The faculty was highly qualified and usually were highly experienced. Through out the course, you need to have full focus on the subjects. The faculty were very particular in this case. They were always there for our help.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I was very passionate about entering the medical field quite early in my life, so I knew what I had to do when I was in school. Medical field is a very challenging area to choose and the work life balance is not as good as other professions. However, it is very engaging and interesting for people who are actually interested in the subject. However, one cannot practice medicine after finishing MBBS because of the increasing competition, so he has to do PG course in order to be more approachable for the patients as well as to serve better in the specific field. The course curriculum is start in a well planned manner and the portions are completed ahead of time so that students have around 1 to 1.5 months of study break before the university exams every year. So, along with the exams that take place throughout the year, students will also have ample time to prepare for their exams in their own way preferred.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Has a lot of new age courses like MS Excel, Python and Data Science. It prepares you fairly well for roles like Data Analyst, Financial Modelling, etc. Areas for improvement include optimising the curriculum load as per the students. Two internals (one after a month after sem starts, second a few weeks before the end sem) and the end sem. I feel the end sem is relatively easier due to the preparation we endure for the internals.

Remarks:

There's no proper infrastructure and there's a long walk on elevated road for day scholars which is very tough. The college does not allow vehicles. The only positive thing about the college is the alumini network.
