hi friends
i'm of '99 batch, now a pg-prep. there is a pg course offered by the manipal group with kathmandu university at its various institutions including kmc manipal and mangalore, and the manipal hospital, bangalore. it is based on an entrance. fee is 5 lakhs per year. now there r many vacancies in it - including orthopaedics
,paed, etc. it seems the admissions will continue still for some more time. u can contact its office at manipal hospital, bangalore for details.

it appears to be a fair opportunitiy. the inthing is that "very very few people know about this" - none even knows when its entrance was conducted. so even if u r not interested inform the same to ur friends, so the interested ones may take it. i know many of the fresh (99) batch students joining the course including those who got good ranks in appg - because of the cut thoat competion and the various unending and ever increasing malpractices in the various entrance exams all over india. i invite any queries.
all the best.
hi bommana,
you gave a good suggestion.i too knew about this long back .
but the only problem i heard about this is.... after completion of the course we get the degree from the khatmandu university. which ios not recognised in india.
is it so....
if you know any details please let me know
thanks in advance for your time.
don't worry about the mci. though it is now not recgd by the mci, the chances of getting the same are high in future - even MAHE
was not recgd till 1986 but later got it. the management is trying for DNB
eligibility this year and they will try for the mci recgn later. now there r thousands of students pursuing this course( pretty no r from Andhra
) and the first batch is going to be out this year.
the course is entrance based conducted once a year. the entrance is different from MAHE
. the degree is given by the kathmandu university. the last entrance was conducted on feb 27, this year, counselling was on next day. there is no management quota. the fee is 5lakhs Ind Rs/year. they take both nepalis and indians by separate entrances for each. now i'm preparing for the pg entrances at the library of manipal hosp, bang. i know that the work there is excellent. u can contact the office (between 9am and 5pm) for the vacancies in the various depts. better not delay if u r interested in joining in it.
the vacancies i know r in otho, gen surg, anaes, obg. the news from the office is that radiology, paed, gen med r filled up recently. the course is not recgd by mci, but the management is trying to first get DNB
recgn and then try for the mci - the chances of getting it r high. but the so called recgn is not a compulsory requirement to practice. with ur mbbs u can practice any thing. there is a supreme court verdict stating "an mbbs doctor trained in any particular branch at any hospital for a required period is eligibile to practice in that branch in india". the manipal pais 've started this course after consultation of the expert lawyers. the problem is only if u wish to do superspeciality in india after ur md/ms - even after that u get only an additional registration by the mci with the same registration no of ur mbbs. this course can work as a residency experience that can take care of any legal problems, if at all they occur in one's practice. no foreign degree is recgd for registration by mci but there r many docs working in india with foreign degrees (like FRCS, FRCP, and from Russia
) as leading practitioners - none can question them. in Andhra
out of the 8 md radiology seats awarded by the ntr university each year, only 2 (in osmania college) are recgd by mci.
year by year as the competition is increasing, the entry to the pg is becoming more and more narrow. better get in to an opportunity awaiting us.
the procedure for admission is as follows :
first everyone has to take an exam - likely to be in the feb of every year. then follows the counselling. at the admission one has to pay 1st year fee. if one doesn't get his desired branch (eg. radiology), he may be put in the waiting list for the particular branch so that he may get it after any possible vacancies in it, while in the meantime continuing his studies in the other branch ( eg. gen surgery) which he gets in the counselling. if the seats still remain vacant they give seats even to those who have not taken the exam - this is the present situation in some branches due to lack of popularity of the course. there r hundreds of students now pursuing course in this programme since last 3 yrs. the final yr batches r going to be out this yr june. the training here is only in india in either of the 3 colleges - kmc,manipal; kmc, mangalore; manipal hosp, bang; u need not go to nepal even to collect ur degree.
this exam is likely to get tougher in the near future. the fee at the begining was only 3lakhs/ year now increased to 5. the no of students taking the exam is also increasing every year. u can contact the office between 9am to 5pm. the stipends are as follows for the 1 ,2 and 3years respectively : kmc, manipal and kmc, mangalore - 5000, 6000, 7000. and in manipal hosp, bangalore - 7000, 8000, 9000.
just try to spread this news to as many of ur friends as possible because esp in Andhra
very few know about it - and our entrance is one of the toughest and most competitive in india.
