Confused about future after BDS: India or UK?

Ans: Hi Shristi,

Greetings!

Yes, you can pursue MDS abroad too. Before that, why don't you earn your master's degree in India? There are many institutions with experienced faculty here. If you decide to pursue this path, visit the websites of your selected universities, prepare your resume, collect the Letters of Recommendation (LORs), and proceed.

Ans: Hi Krishnan
The cost of pursuing an MD abroad after completing MBBS in India varies by country. In the USA, expenses can range from $200,000 to $300,000, including tuition and living costs. Germany offers affordable MD options with minimal tuition fees, though learning German is required. The UK has high tuition costs but offers globally respected programs; both the UK and Germany are popular due to their structured pathways for international graduates.

Ans: H Kesari....MDS abroad can cost ?25–?70 lakh, depending on the country. USA, Canada, and Australia are excellent options due to high-quality education and career opportunities. The procedure involves clearing exams like NBDE/INBDE (USA), NDEB (Canada), or OET/IELTS (Australia). Admission requires academic transcripts, proof of English proficiency, and recommendation letters.

Ans: Before the introduction of NEET, the scenario for admission to medical colleges was quite different. Many candidates aspiring to study medicine who did not achieve sufficient marks in their HSC (Higher Secondary Certificate) chose to pursue their education abroad. However, with NEET in place, numerous opportunities are now available in India.

The medical admission process in India has become more standardized, so there is no longer a need to seek alternatives overseas. In this context, I strongly suggest that pursuing an MBBS in India is preferable rather than from other countries. It is important to understand that candidates must clear NEET for both admission and graduation.

There are several challenges that young students—who are often minors—face when studying abroad. Our education system has not equipped them to handle various situations in foreign countries. Some of the major difficulties include:

1. Admissions are often conducted through agencies, which can result in significant financial losses.
2. Issues related to food and accommodation can arise.
3. Adapting to a different culture and behavior can be challenging, and young students may be tempted towards negative influences.

So, it might be wiser for candidates to complete their undergraduate education in India and consider pursuing postgraduate studies abroad later on. We should encourage our younger generation to take competitive exams, as this will help build their confidence and better prepare them for their future.
Thank you.
