LAGNA Question by LAGNA on Nov 28, 2024

Sir I am preparing for mbbs, but I'm not able to crack that. I'm a middle class student. Can I pursue mbbs in abroad under 8 lakhs in a best college for mbbs?After that can I able to be a doctor in India?

Ans: Hi Lagna,

It seems you haven’t provided the details clearly on this platform. If you could share more information, I’m sure you will receive helpful input.

Based on your message, I understand that you are considering pursuing a career in medicine. If you intend to enroll in a medical program either in India or abroad and plan to practice in India after completion, here are some important guidelines according to the National Medical Commission (NMC):

You must appear for the NEET exam, as it is a mandatory requirement for anyone wishing to pursue graduate medical education in India or elsewhere while intending to return and practice in India. According to the NMC eligibility criteria: “No student shall be eligible to pursue graduate medical education either in India or elsewhere (if they want to return and practice in India), except by scoring the minimum eligible score at the NEET UG exam. The UGMEB will announce the list of eligible students periodically.”

Therefore, I recommend preparing for the NEET exam and trying to secure admission in India itself. If you choose to pursue medical education abroad, you can still practice in India, but you will need to pass exit exams as well.

Regarding your question about pursuing MBBS abroad for under 8 lakhs, are you asking if this is per year or for the entire course? Studying abroad at that cost per year is possible. However, when you take into account the total expenses, which include course fees, accommodation, food, travel, visa, and other costs, it might be more feasible to complete your MBBS in India.

I hope this clarifies your queries!

Hello! Read your article of studying MBBS abroad. One question - after completing MBBS abroad, how can a student enter the Indian Market to do practising, is there any exam to appear, if so, the passing marks and in which hospitals the student can practice (Government or Private). Second Question: For studying Post - Graduation, will the abroad degree of MBBS will work for the entrance test for PG or any other option to take admission for PG? Thanking you Regards, Madhuri Shinde
Ans: Hello Madhuri.
First of all, thank you for reading the article so quickly and showing your faith in rediffGuru.
Here is the point-wise reply to your queries:
(1) To practice in India, the candidate has to appear for the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) conducted by the National Medical Commission (NMC) or National Board of Examinations (NBE)
(2) Passing Marks: A minimum of 50%
(3) The candidate can practice either in Govt or Private hospital
(4) One has to decide from which country he wants to do PG. As far as India is concerned, the candidate has to appear for the NEET PG entrance test. There are no direct PG admissions in India without NEET-PG if the candidate seeks an NMC-recognized PG qualification.
Finally, If you plan to pursue a PG degree abroad, ensure that the institution and course are recognized by the NMC to practice in India upon your return.

If satisfied, please like and follow me.
If dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
Thanks.

Coming to the University of Strathclyde, top-ranked in the UK for Computer Science, this university is renowned for its linkages with industry, research possibilities, as well as outstanding student services, offering robust employment opportunities. Next, situated in a student-centric city with budget-friendly costs in comparison to other cities in the UK, Glasgow Caledonian University focuses on hands-on, industry-focused learning with impressive graduate employment rates.
