Madras Medical College - Review

For my medical field i feel some subjects are unnecessary in my view point like the community medicines. I feel anatomy weightage should be more compared to buochemistrand physiology. I would like them to improve the chapters and remove chalters that are unnecessary so that we medical students can concentrate on whats inportant rather than studying everything and stuffing our brain.

I still now am sure how internships work. But i heard it will be tough but gives experience to the original medical atmospheree. The internship will be in the nearby RGGGH hospital for about half a year.

College fees was about 20,000 and hostel fees at the start was 30,000 and monthly mess fees would be around 3000. Scholarship was based on all India quota also I guess. And books and others round upto 6000 each person.

Sports has not yet been allowed for us freshers due to ragging issues. Im currently in fashion parade club and for now i seem to like it and hope it will work out. Fests are mostly 3-4 a year like annually one event and small other fests days will be there.

Room has study desks for 3 persons though four persons are stating in one room. Meal quaity is good and extras and ice creams are kept mostly all the time. Registartion process is good but clear cut instruction on the meal reduction criteria were not given so it was rough during starting months.

My top choice was JIPMER but couldn't get into because of my rank issues. But compared to other AIIMS institutions I chose MMC as it's nearer to my house and chennai is a well developed place to spend my 5 years of college

Faculty would be more than students as post graduates are also there. Some facultites are good to communicate with whereas others would be too oriented on our discipline and we dint mingle that much with them.

Gym, library and reading hall are not yet allowed for fresgers. And curfew is around 8 pm which is ok for us and from second year it will till 10pm which is quite nice. But college doesnt have that much hangout areas just a common building with 6 floors and teo hostels which is a disappointment compared to other colleges
