Baba Raghav Das Medical College Gorakhpur Diploma: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. Yes. Admission to PG Diploma programmes at BRD Gorakhpur is conducted through the Uttar Pradesh state PG medical counselling process, which uses NEET PG scores as the primary merit criterion. A valid NEET PG score from the 2026 examination is required along with a completed MBBS internship and Medical Council registration.

Ans. At ₹60,000 to ₹80,000 for the full 2-year course, BRD Gorakhpur’s PG Diploma fees are significantly lower than private medical colleges, which typically charge ₹5,00,000 to ₹20,00,000 or more for equivalent PG Diploma programmes. This makes BRD one of the most affordable options for MBBS graduates seeking clinical specialisation in Uttar Pradesh.

Ans. MD is a full postgraduate degree requiring higher NEET PG rank and is the preferred route for academic or senior specialist positions. PG Diploma is a 2-year clinical certification that provides specialist training in the respective field and is recognised for specialist practice. Diploma holders may also pursue MD through additional study; in some states, PG Diploma holders are eligible for MD admission without a fresh NEET PG, subject to university norms.

Ans. DMRD (Medical Radio Diagnosis) and DOMS (Ophthalmology) are typically among the most sought-after PG Diplomas at government medical colleges like BRD due to strong private practice prospects and relatively lower NEET PG cutoffs compared to full MD specialisations. DDVL (Dermatology) also attracts high interest given the demand for dermatologists across urban and semi-urban practice settings.

Ans. Seats at BRD Gorakhpur are primarily allocated through UP state PG medical counselling, which prioritises UP domicile candidates. A limited percentage of management or All India Quota seats may be available through central counselling for candidates from other states; the exact allocation is determined annually by the NMC and the UP DGME notification.
