Important for MBBS Abroad Students

Want to Practice in IndiaAfter MBBS Abroad?

Choose the right university today to secure your future in India tomorrow.

01

Recognised Universities with Eligibility Guidance

We help students explore internationally recognised universities and provide updated eligibility guidance based on prevailing Indian regulations.

02

NEET Qualified

You must clear NEET with a minimum qualifying percentile - 50th percentile for General category, 40th for reserved. Appearing is not enough, you must meet the cutoff.

03

Strong Clinical Training

NMC mandates hands-on hospital training as part of the degree. Weak clinical exposure affects your NExT exam performance and real-world readiness - verify the hospital setup before choosing.

04

Course Duration + Internship

The program must include the required academic years plus a 54-week internship. Critically, NMC allows completing your internship in India - a fact many students don't know about.

05

Proper Documentation

Maintain your transcripts, attendance records, degree certificate, internship completion letter and visa records. Missing a single document can stall your registration.

06

Licensing Exam Readiness

To practise in India you must clear the NExT (National Exit Test) - which replaces FMGE. It has two parts: NExT Step 1 (theory) and Step 2 (clinical). Plan for preparing from Year 1, not after graduation.

07

Medium of Instruction

NMC requires your MBBS program to be taught in English. Many universities in Russia, Kazakhstan and Georgia teach in the local language - verify this before applying or risk being ineligible.

Smart students don’t choose the cheapest option. They choose the right option.

What Our Students Say

Real feedback from Indian students who are now studying MBBS abroad with our guidance.

I was stuck between dropping a year and going abroad with my NEET score. The team broke down FMGE pass rates and fees honestly - I picked Kemerovo with full confidence. Visa, hostel and flight were sorted in 4 weeks.

Aarav Sharma
Kemerovo State Medical University, Russia

My parents had so many fears about MBBS abroad - NMC validity, English medium, internship in India. The counsellor answered each one with proof. They didn't push the most expensive option. That trust is what made my family say yes.

Priya Patel
Siberian State Medical University, Russia

Missed my government college cutoff by 12 marks. Instead of letting me drop a year, they shortlisted 6 NMC-approved options under ₹30L. From documentation to visa interview prep - every step was guided personally.

Rohan Kumar
Novosibirsk State University, Russia
The NEET Reality

22 Lakh Students Appear for NEET.
Most Need Better Guidance.

These are the real questions every student and parent asks - answered honestly.

Yes - MBBS degrees from NMC-recognized foreign universities are fully valid in India. After completing your degree, you clear the NExT exam (National Exit Test, formerly FMGE) to get your Indian medical license. Countries like Russia, Philippines, Ukraine, and Georgia have high NExT pass rates among Indian students.
