Admission: The classes cover a lot of important stuff about Human Physiology and how it relates to health and disease. The tests are pretty hard, so you gotta study a lot to do well. The second and third semesters can be challenging for sure.

Placement: The job placements are pretty good. You can get roles like research scientist, healthcare educator, or physiology instructor. On average, about 80% of students get placed. The highest salary offered was around 9 Lacs per year.

Campus: The classrooms are brand new and have all the tech stuff like projectors. They have Wi-Fi but it's kinda slow. The hostels are nice and the wardens are cool. They clean the hostels regularly to keep things clean.

Admission: The teachers really knew their stuff when it came to research methods and they were always working on new research. They made us excited about getting into research too. Exams didn't feel as scary because they made it easier for everyone.

Placement: While training, we got a monthly stipend of around Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 40,000. The placement team helped us find great job opportunities. The college alumni stayed connected with us even after we finished the course.

Campus: The campus had plenty of room to chill, study, or get work done. They had libraries just for each subject, which was cool. You had to wear your ID on campus or you'd get fined.

Admission: The teachers here are really good, I'd give them an 8 out of 10. They're PGs and doctors who make sure we understand everything well. They're also there to help us if we're feeling down. You just need 50% to pass all exams, which are not too hard.

Placement: Getting placements here is pretty straightforward because this college has a good reputation in India and abroad. I enrolled in 2019, and students with ranks below 30,000 in NEET were accepted. After graduating, interns usually make around Rs 30,000 - Rs 40,000. Many students go on to take PG exams, and a decent number of them end up getting placed.

Campus: The classrooms, labs, and libraries are all air-conditioned, which is great. In the hostels, you can choose between having an air conditioner or not. The hostels have Wi-Fi everywhere, and the classrooms have projectors and speakers for better lectures. The food in the mess is awesome - they serve a lot of North Indian dishes and snacks like tikki, samosa, maggi, and vada pav. It's pretty good overall.

Admission: The best part about this private medical college is the staff. The professors are always on time and they teach with a lot of enthusiasm. We had presentations and small group teaching sessions where we discussed topics in groups of around 20-25 students. It was really helpful for understanding the subjects better.

Placement: For MBBS, we all gotta do internship. Lots of students stick around at KMC Bangalore for it, while others head back home. The teaching is solid, and you really learn a ton during internship here.

Campus: The college campus isn't as big as others, but the facilities are pretty good. The library is well-stocked and spacious. There's also a sports campus called Marina with a gym and trainers. The canteen serves good food, and the hostels are comfy. The mess food is way better than what you usually find in hostels. Since it's a medical college, the medical facilities are top-notch.

Placement: After finishing this medical course, I've seen other doctors reaching great heights. I'm aiming for the same.

You'll definitely get recognized for your hard work.

Campus: Our college has a cool arena for sports. The food is okay. The medical facilities are top-notch. We have Wi-Fi everywhere. The library is big and decent. Classrooms are modern with great sound and displays. And the canteens are awesome.

Admission: The teachers here are top-notch with lots of experience. They're all doctors. Dr. Vishram teaches Anatomy and he also teaches at KMC Bangalore. We get to work with a cadaver in groups of about 27 students. We also have small group sessions for learning.

Placement: KMC Bangalore is a top choice for MBBS placements in India. They make sure every student gets to do an internship, which is a must for MBBS. You can also find almost all the MD/MS courses here. It's ranked 30th among medical colleges in India. Overall, KMC Bangalore is a great college to be in.

Campus: This hostel is top-notch in India! It feels more like a hotel with all the cool stuff they have washing machines, irons, and a mess hall. The food at the mess is a bit pricey, but totally worth it. They've got great Wi-Fi and a library stocked with the newest books. If you're into sports, though, you'll have to head over to Arena since there aren't any facilities on campus.

Admission: The teachers in our department are super helpful, both in and out of class. The courses we take are right on track for our group. The exams every semester are pretty average, but you gotta put in the effort. Almost everyone passes with a 98% rate, except for the few who don't put in the work.

Placement: The college has a high placement rate of 95% for students who graduate. The average salary offered is around 12-15 LPA. One cool job you can score is being a Senior Physiotherapist for Arsenal FC. You'll also get to work in top hospitals in Bangalore, including government ones, and get a good stipend.

Campus: The college has everything you need, but no air conditioning. The food is decent, not amazing. They have sports and fun activities in the Arena, like basketball and badminton. The campus has Wi-Fi too.

Admission: The medical faculty here is top-notch. The course lasts for around five and a half years, including an internship. We get to do clinical work in both government and private hospitals. They teach us in small groups and focus on problem-based learning. They push us to do research and attend conferences. The faculty-to-student ratio is just right because each department has enough staff. It's a great place to study medicine!

Placement: I did a year-long internship getting paid around 20000 to 25000 per month. The college focuses a lot on research activities, which is great for getting good placements abroad like USMLE, PLAB, etc. It really helps boost up your resume. The Scientific Research committee hosts medical workshops every year. The college is part of MAHE (Manipal University), which is called Institute of Eminence.

Campus: The college has fast Wi-Fi in the hostel and classrooms. The library and canteen are cool too. You can choose between AC and non-AC rooms in the hostel. The medical faculty here is top-notch. We get to learn in both Government Wenlock Hospital and the college's private hospitals. They keep the hostels clean and fix things quickly. And there's a Marena Indoor Sports Complex for sports and fun.

Admission: The teachers here are awesome and really helpful. They know a lot about their subjects. They teach really well because they have a lot of experience and share what they know with us. The courses go by semesters, each lasting six months. The exams are not super hard, and you just need to get 50% to pass.

Placement: At our college, there's no job guarantee, but we do have internships. When I started, there were 40 students in my course, but now there are around 50 in the newer batches. The internship lasts about six months, and we get to work at Manipal hospitals like KMC Attavara, KMC Jyothi, and KMC Bejai, mainly in pediatrics. And the best part? It's all free of charge!

Campus: The college has awesome facilities with AC classrooms and labs. The library at Falnir has tons of books and research stuff. The hostel fee is like INR 1,20,000, which covers a mess card for meals. There's a cool sports complex called Manipal Arena that's free to use, except for the gym.

Admission: The teachers all have MBBS degrees from good colleges. They're great, like Professor Vishram Singh. The course is CBME for our batch starting in 2020. It's all about skills and has lots of info. We have 3 sessional exams and then university exams. Almost everyone passes with a 90% success rate.

Placement: All students from the senior batch got placed in different medical colleges through NEET PG exam. One student even got into SMS Jaipur for MS Ortho. Around 10 students also made it to USMLE and PLAB. It's a really prestigious university.

Campus: There's a main building called Lighthouse where you'll have classes for your 2nd and 3rd year subjects. The library is open until 11:30 PM and it's right there in the same building. The whole campus has Wi-Fi, which is great. Classrooms are all air-conditioned and have everything you need. For hostels, 1st years stay in Bejai, while NRI students stay in Kaprigudda and Sturrock. And don't forget about Marena - the sports complex with a gym and all kinds of sports facilities. It's awesome!
