    About MBBS

    MBBS is the most sought-after undergraduate medical degree in India, recognized worldwide by leading medical councils. The course trains students in general medicine and surgery through a combination of theoretical knowledge and extensive clinical practice. Students learn across subjects including Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, Pathology, Pharmacology, Community Medicine, and all major clinical specialties. The 5.5-year program is divided into 4.5 years of academic study spread over 9 semesters, followed by a mandatory 1-year rotating internship in a government or recognized private hospital. During the internship, students rotate through departments like Medicine, Surgery, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Paediatrics, and Community Medicine, gaining real-world patient management skills. Admission to MBBS in India is strictly through NEET UG, conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA). Students compete for seats in government colleges (AIQ and State Quota), deemed universities, private colleges, and central institutions like AIIMS and JIPMER. Government college fees range from ₹10,000 to ₹1,00,000 per year, while private colleges may charge up to ₹15–25 lakh per year.
