Remarks :
I applied for Karuna medical college, Coimbatore, but did not join as the patient load was less. The minimum mark for admission was 80% and age for admission was 17 years. The admission process was easy, hassle-free, with assistance from the staff regarding admission procedures.
Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose this course due to my love for medicine as a subject as well as for service to society. We had well-trained faculty with timely lectures and a good faculty: student ratio. The faculty were all highly qualified, experienced, and trained students using state-of-the-art technology and infrastructure. Exams were conducted on a timely basis in the form of internal assessments, and pre-university examinations. Exams were of a high standard.

Fees weren't hiked during the period of study. No scholarships were provided. But there were research programs we could apply for under ICMR for which we were given grants. We were provided with stipends during the compulsory rotatory internship of one-year duration at the campus.
Campus Life :
There were library facilities including the latest edition of books, journals, research papers along with an air-conditioned library with adequate space and lighting for the students to study round the clock.
