Studying MBBS internationally can seem very exciting and adventurous! But it also comes with some unique challenges that Indian students should be prepared for.
In this post, I will share some of the common difficulties Indian students face when pursuing MBBS abroad and tips on how to tackle them smoothly. Chalo shuru karte hai!
Most Indian students are not fluent in languages like Chinese, Russian, Spanish, etc. This can make classroom learning overseas very difficult initially. Attending language classes rigorously before your course begins is highly recommended.
Also be open to making friends with local students and involving in conversations to improve your language skills faster. Don’t be shy!
Many students worry if their international MBBS degree will be valid in India. But Medical Council of India recognizes MBBS degrees from most globally recognized universities.
Just ensure your university is approved by MCI before taking admission. You may need to clear a screening test on returning to practice in India.
Missing family and Indian festivals is natural when you move overseas alone. Manage homesickness by making friends, trying Indian recipes, joining cultural groups and calling home often.
Syllabus is often tougher for MBBS abroad with more practical focus. Work very hard from day one, utilize faculty support, and be ready to adapt to a new education style.
Studying abroad involves big expenses. Learn to manage budgets wisely. Part-time jobs can help earn extra. Education loans are a viable long-term option too.
By being prepared for these challenges, you can smoothly handle MBBS abroad pressures. Don’t worry, crores of Indian students have done this before you! You’ve got this.
