MBBS & BDS from Bangladesh Medical Colleges (Read it Fully Once)
Dear all, Let me give a very good Option and believe me I am suggesting it after looking at all the facts almost. If you are not able to get admission in MBBS or BDS, then before trying for the options of Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan or China (I am not undermining them in any way, but just giving my personal opinion), Do try for admissions in Bangladesh Medical Colleges.
Why so ?
1) You can get admission in Govt. Medical Colleges of Bangladesh
2) When you get admission in Govt. owned medical colleges in any country especially in South Asia such as Bangladesh. They will have same quality level as other countries as Pakistan or India. Bangladesh Doctors are equally well known for the quality healthcare around the world as Pakistani Doctors. Moreover, you will have practical experience of same kind of diseases as in Pakistan, due to similarities in many regards
3) I am not undermining medical schools at China, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan etc, but check the dates of establishing (birth dates) the medical schools in these countries and in Bangladesh. You will get the idea that Govt. Medical Schools in Bangladesh are old enough, which have had enough time to develop skills, faculty and practical facilities in their colleges that is same as you are having in Pakistan Govt. Medical Colleges. See their establishment dates in PDF in drive link
4) The most important the annual fee of Medical Schools at Bangladesh varies from just 10,000 LKR to 25,000 LKR per year. Yes per year (so less)
5) Dormitory is free in most of Bangladesh Medical Schools
6) If you eat from university mess, then your monthly expenses can be maximum 10,000 LKR per month or if you cook yourself, then they can be even less, if you eat from outside, then they can vary upto to 25,000 LKR per month maximum.
7) A lot of students are studying there. Language of instruction is Bangla and English Mix. But this language is not difficult, you can easily learn it in two to three months.
8) Considering less money and having education in Govt. & established Medical Schools in Bangladesh is the best option. Also many medical schools at Bangladesh have higher rankings than King Edward Medical College in QS rankings
9) Google the reasons of studying MBBS or BDS in Bangladesh, you will find amazing reasons from Indians also. I will also suggest, that take admission even paying private fee (quite high) in old respected colleges of Bangladesh than studying in private colleges, I see their old private medical colleges dated back to 1985, 1995 etc. See their establishment dates in PDF in drive link
