Moreover, this is the most crucial time when aspirants still have enough time in their hands to decide for their future and not give up on their goals of becoming a doctor. Aspirants are likely to face huge obstacles in their way when they are exploring different opportunities for them.
We advised aspirants to explore more and more about various opportunities available by pursuing MBBS in Abroad, MBBS in Russia, MBBS in China and MBBS in Bangladesh.
Every year, aspirants have to go through a lot while trying to secure a medical seat in their preferred medical university in India. Most of the aspirants give up on their dreams and settle for some other course when they are not able to get admissions in their preferred university or when they cannot afford to pay huge amount of donation or tuition fees in Private colleges or when they belong to open category and some other aspirant who have secured less than them and still manage to secure a seat in government college because they come under reserved category.
This is the most crucial time and the most competitive examination is for MBBS which is widespread. The craze for becoming a doctor is increasing and every year the ratio of aspirants appearing for NEET is increasing and the medical seats remain the same because of which the trend of pursuing MBBS in Abroad and choosing some other country is on the rise.
Also, during this time, technology plays an important role in the lives of the aspirants when they are exploring on internet about various medical institutes all around the world.
Nowadays, everything is easily available on internet and thus, aspirants have become smart and take their decisions wisely so that they do not have to face major obstacles when they start their journey in the university.
Aspirants are advised to check NMC ad other rankings while planning to pursue MBBS in a foreign country and all other important factors should also be taken into consideration such as the Tuition fees, cost of living, hostel and food facilities, relationship of their home country with the country they have chosen as their study destination and many other things.
Apart from all this, the ratio of the aspirants clearing the FMGE or the NEXT exam should also be taken into consideration as it is very important to know whether the university is providing FMGE coaching in the university along with MBBS studies or not.
