The Most Affordable Medical Universities in the World
MBBS Abroad
In India, getting a MBBS seat is an extremely tedious task. Most students give up their medical dreams halfway there! Why?
Well, for starters, a student needs to spend a gruelling year preparing for the NEET examination which governs entry into medical colleges in India. If you haven’t scored a government seat through the exam, then you’ll probably end up paying huge amounts to study in private medical colleges.
But now, the cause of worry is over!
Students now have the option of studying at foreign universities, for an extremely affordable cost. With a minimum qualifying score in the NEET examination, and a valid passport, they are all set to pursue MBBS abroad!
