Admission Process
Government medical colleges can be very competitive (with lower fees), while private colleges can be a good option if cost is not an issue. Be aware of each college and their cutoffs, reservation practices, and admission procedures.

Quality of instruction is crucial. Look behind the qualifications and experience of the faculty, student-to-teacher ratio, and the teaching styles they use. Online properties and alumni can assist you with this.

Most government colleges do not provide placements for students but a large number of private colleges will either partner with hospitals, healthcare chains, NGOs to develop them, or even offer international exposure. Explore what each college offers to help you transition into a post-MBBS career.
